How silly to think that the SUN has anything to do with the temperature of the Earth! LoL! The temperature of the Earth is inversely proportional to the number of Priuses sold annually, duh!!

no sun spots?
by John Doe indrop in solar activity has potential effect for climate on earth.. .
the sun has reached a milestone not seen for nearly 100 years: an entire month has passed without a single visible sunspot being noted.
the event is significant as many climatologists now believe solar magnetic activity which determines the number of sunspots -- is an influencing factor for climate on earth.. according to data from mount wilson observatory, ucla, more than an entire month has passed without a spot.

Couple of questions:
1. Is this a variation of the Nigerian scam?
2. If not, what kind of scam is it and who's being scammed?
3. Is it OK if I just look Jewish? Or will I have to answer a lot of questions about circumcision and kvetching? I can study if I have to.

At the last DC I attended (last year) in the anti-college talk the speaker actually gave as a reason not to attend college that 'Every year many students die from binge drinking.'
'Go to college and you could die of binge drinking' is probably the most ridiculous argument I've heard yet.
Real quick point... I have college friends and non-college friends. Guess which group drinks more?

GB's Attitude Toward Suffering of "Foreign" Brothers
by compound complex inregarding alternative service.
ray franz received letters from branch committee members that displayed thoughtfulness and breadth of viewpoint that were in sharp contrast to the rigidity and narrowness of several members of the governing body:.
what was the effect of all this?

The utter contempt toward non-US members was dramatically evidenced in the Book Study letter. One reason given for the change was "gas prices."
The brothers in Eurpoe paying $10 per gallon for years prior, or those in Africa jumping over crocodiles to get to the meetings were not cause to reconsider the schedule... but driving the Escalade ten minutes to the hall costs an extra few bucks a month so we'll cancel the "most important" meeting. Way to give the rest the world the finger, Governing Body!

Why no signature here?
by AK - Jeff inhttp://jehovah-has-become-king.com/documentation.html.
scroll down to the 2001 documents - i ask about the letter to various branches listed first under that year.
i never noticed before, but wouldn't this letter normally be signed?

I don't know anything about CompuServe or the signature, but the explanation given and language used seems perfectly in character with the WT's likely response.
Not that it means anything, but WT apologists have taken this explanation and defended it heartily, indicating their belief that it is genuine and demonstrating that the explanation works for the thoroughly indoctrinated, which is really all that is necessary for the WT's purposes.

The WORD
by Gregor inthe sermon on the mile high mount.
1then it came to pass in the land of entitlement that the word became change and the change became hope and the hope became change you can believe in.
2and the obamessisah went about all fifty-seven states, teaching at their caucuses and primaries, healing malaise among the poor in spirit, and preaching the gospel of progress.

After they pick up our bones...
by cameo-d inand after they are bored with picking fruit..... do you think they will make us into something they like better?.
when i first saw this elaborate chapel of skull and bones, my reaction was that this had been intended as a mockery.
surely these friars know the statutes and levitical laws that death and handling of the dead is considered "unclean".

I think it's beautiful. I'd be honored to be part of such a display... hopefully many decades from now.

Noted creationist (and presumably, gay porn star) Harry Rimmer related this tale in a 1936 book. Interestingly, on the WT Library CD there are six citations or quotations of his work supporting the WT's position (between 1952-1965). The last time he is mentioned (1970) is in connection with this bogus "missing day" story, and they haven't referenced him since.
