Can't wait! I'm going to be on a plane, headed to a warm place far away on Sunday morning when the unfortunate dubs are blindly gobbling down their "Noo Lite", but if you can get this out on Saturday I'll save the .pdf to my hard drive for later viewing.

THE LAST ONE! WATCHTOWER COMMENTS HOSTS LEOLAIA
by V inyes that right folks, after this one, no more full-text comments from v. our little video factory is running at full steam again and this is where i will be focusing my energy.. to finish with flourish, our visiting speaker leolaia has produced an intensive dissection of this study with an eisegetical and historical razor blade shiny-sharp.
"christ's presence--what does it mean to you?".
the april 14-20 study is jehovah's witnesses' big "new-light" of 2008, though we will find that the bulb is actually a vintage filament burning on borrowed time.

A Watchtower Metaphor if I may?
by AK - Jeff inin an effort to soften my discussions with a jw who used to be close to me, i have developed a metaphor - one that does not mention religion at all.
of course we both know to what it refers - but it is my clear belief that jw's can't discuss reality straight up.
a man is convinced early in his life that he should run, and that the best running can be achieved when he runs for, and associates with, only the running corp. so, at the tender age of 4, he begins to associate as a junior runner.

Slingshots are the preferrable choice of weaponry when fighting giants?
Actually, giant-killing plays a huge role in the Old Testament. Check out

Flip-flops can be beautiful -- our allies?
by Fatfreek inflip-flops can be beautiful -- our allies -- as they can be used to reveal evidence of the lack of spirit-direction which the society so readily claims.
the following link is to a 16 page essay that does just that but in a manner that i hope you'll find is objective and less vitriolic than is sometimes found.
the revealing wt quotations are all, with the exception of one (from the 1879 launch of zions watch tower), from the wt library (2005) on cd.

Read carefully paragraph 20 - "Jehovahs people claim no powers of inspiration today". They say 2 totally contradictory things at once, and get away with it! It boggles the mind!

So excited I could *pOp*
by LouBelle inokay - for the last hour 2 friends and i have been sitting and talking business.
it started out as a joke on how we could digitise magazine and download them into a very real business idea re: the soccer world cup happening here in 2010.. it is a brilliant idea, which i will share in completion once we have registered / patented it so that it can't be stolen.
plus plus we can use it to uplift previously disadvantaged people, the only thing is they may not be able to cope with the demand - how awesome is that - i'm going to be helping people make a living - wow - skipping with happiness.. i haven't been this excited for a looooooooooooooooong time - i really do feel like my brain could pop with all the ideas - the thing is ... it's so so doable.

Will 2008 Really Bring The End?
by WTWizard inno, this is not from the filthful and disgraceful slavebugger this time (theirs is ongoing).
it is from that ad that frequently pops up on this forum.
they are talking about how this year is going to be the downfall of america.. only time will tell for sure, but it is already mid april and there is no sign of the total collapse of this country within this year.

No special campaign to invite the public to the DC this year...
by sir82 in...per the may 2008 km.. it does give a hint about the "future campaign" that i noted earlier in this thread though: .
http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/154825/1.ashx.
i guess they finally figured out that people are not likely to drive 50-300 miles to a fringe group's religious convention after receiving a smarmy invitation from a stranger at their door..

You got to love these emails going around JW land.
by whereami infriends,.
a co in the w...... congregation said that the reason so many of our brothers are dis-fellowshipped isn't because of wrong doing, it's because the new system isn't a reality.
read this all the way thru, it is truly a dose of what is yet to come.

Have they changed the Everlasting Life theory?
by unique1 inmy friend (disfellowshipped) was talking to her brother-in-law who is still very much in the truth.
i will preface this with the fact that i have known him my whole life and he has never been the brightest light bulb so maybe he is wrong on this count.
he told her she needed to start coming back to meetings.
