To me this guy alone doesn't look too weird:

Same for this guy in the back - watched alone, he seems normal:

But in the context of the other people, he seems a bit distorted, as if photographed from a different angle:

Communications during Armageddon

by bruh in

this past wt study on the things that marks the end of the world---made me think in terms of armageddon and what the faithful slave would do if they couldnt communicate with thousands of congregations since the wicked/satans world runs the the modes/network of communications.

i may not have all the facts as to the infastructure of the worlds communications but one things for sure---with the wicked destroyed at armageddon how does the society oh organization plan to communicate with the rank and file???

wicked gone means that possibly the internet will not be working, post office will be down, mobile carriers/towers will be out of commission maybe, tv stations will be out of commission.

1975 was stated as the end of 6000 years of human existance

The 1975 mistake was justified with "The 6000 years must be counted from Abel on, and we don't know when he was born". Not with "We found that the 7th day of creation does not last 7000 years".

modern humans being around for only 6000 years

Humans at all. Whether "modern" or not.

WTS claims that Adam would have been created 4026 BCE (so it would be 6037 years now), and:

*** it-1 p. 15 Abel ***

Since Seth was evidently born shortly after Abel’s death and when Adam was 130 years of age, it is possible that Abel may have been as much as 100 years old at the time of his martyrdom.

So "it is possible" that Abel was born around 3996 BCE or 6007 years ago. But actually the Bible does not mention his age at all. He may as well have been 30 years old instead of 100. If he ever lived, of course, which I don't believe.

One Silly Little Comma = WT Idiocy

by Farkel in

one would think that the god of gods, the creator of everything who wanted to give we puny little humans a handbook for salvation(tm), would make sure that handbook remained authentic.. one who thinks that way would be wrong.. since punctuation is critical to convey exact meanings, i find it strange that the god of gods would pick a written language for his handbook that has no punctuation!

oh, wait!

he also picked another language for that book that had no written vowels!
