Yes. But they will see this as a sign of the great tribulation...

Where did it all go wrong?
by THE GLADIATOR inbeing a jehovahs witness is getting easier with each worldly year that passes.
time is not getting shorter but meetings are, along with assemblies.
in my day the closing prayer lasted longer than the whole modern assembly.

The WT Says: Young women should be like like cows (sex advice)
by inkling insorry if this has allready been talked about, but does anyone remember running across this gem from a 1961 wt?.
--- how can girls guard against temptation in this sex-crazy world?.
when a girl reaches the age of puberty or physical maturity, her body has developed in the matter of sex more than in the mind.

Hi.
I installed it and like it.
I'm sending this from Chrome.
I agree that it's really, noticeably faster than IE or Firefox...
it does have some quirks. But it's in beta. I'm sure there'll
be some refinements and the other browsers will learn from it.
BTW it was announced today on NPR as another way Google is
trying to compete with Windows and make the browser an
applications' platform.

This is quite strange.
The Jewish calendar
http://www.kaluach.net/month.php?year=2009&month=04&day=2
says Nisan 14 corresponds to Wednesday 8 Sep 2008.
I don't think it's a matter of the evening/sundown issue.Last year the Society decided not to go with the Nisan 14
schedule because of the intercalation of the extra month
or Jewish Leap Year.Anyone know why???
--ILOOWYBTW the whole thing with the thread of skulls and blood drinking was gross! And I don't think it applies in any way to the last supper. So... that's my opinion. :-p

Dictatorship of Rutherford!
by Number1Anarchist ina new leader with a different spirit.
one of the board members, joseph franklin rutherford, was a lawyer who was active in politics before coming into the truth.
before pastor russells death, the pastor had dismissed rutherford from bethel and provided him funds for a new start in california.

In essence Rutherford turned the whole WT publishing business into a pyramid scheme.
[please excuse the pun]
Since he published, then it got sold to the Witnesses who in turn sold it to the public or
used the publications for their own consumption.--ILOOWY

IMO ~ Who Is The Evil Slave And How Can We Tell?
by Flash inimo - who is the evil slave and how we can tell?.
matthew 7: 15 ~ 23 'by their fruits you will recognise them.'.
it's apparent by their conduct, that after waiting 35 years and seeing 1914 fail to bring armageddon, the slave that was faithful turned evil.

Hey Flash.
I appreciate what you're trying to prove. But...
When Jesus spoke about the wheat among the weeds there is no reference to any "organization" that is special in God's eyes.
The Jews had been the chosen people... But...
For God there was no longer either Jew nor Greek, for they could all come to be His children, adopted through their faith in the ransoming grace of Jesus sacrifice. Throughout these couple of thousand years people have put their faith in Jesus Christ and have been able to call out to their Heavenly Father out of a clean conscience and a heart of faith.
The evil slave as I undestand it from the gospels is that slave who seeing that the Lord's return seems to take longer than expected, turns to mistreating his fellow servants of God.
With Christian Love and warm regards.
