if this is like a grandma that i know, i would say your shit outta luck. She is and will always know more then you and she is always right. think again bigD, your arguing ancient mesopotamian history, like drew said. maybe you should just right a letter so she doesn't have a chance to argue.

Everyone will have a different reason to look. It might be best to give her some websites, and let her look around. You dont have to show her anything, if she is willing to look on the webon her own that is all that is needed.

Sorry I am trying to add a picture.
Why does this Watchtower have a different cover in the bound volume from the orginal Watchtower?
Could it be that they got that picture from Jonnie walker red label wiskey?

Isn't this proof the GB doesn't believe what it preaches?
by nbernat inif the gb really thought they had the exact truth perfect from flaws, shouldn't they be telling their members, "go look at the apostate stuff-- you'll see it's all lies!
compare it to the bible and you'll see it's all lies!
" that would completely eliminate apostasy if it were all true, no?.

EMPTY KINGDOM HALL
by thebigdebate ini have heard from my father (who is an elder about 50 years old) that there is a great seperating work going on within the org.
he said that almost all of the people my age 25 to 35 have quit going to our hall (about 20 people).
i have not been to a meeting in about 1 year.

I think that the NEW UNDERSTANDING, REUNDERSTANDING, and CURRENT UNDERSTANING of the GENERATION THAT WILL NOT PASS, is a very big part of why people have been leaving. I know that it was a big part of my thinking.
I grew up thinking that this system can only go on 1 or 2 years at most becuase people that were born in 1914 were already 80 going on 90 years old.
Then I read the info on 607BCE and the 1914 and It all started to fit together of why we were wrong about so many things.
I think that because of the internet you can research and check into these teachings and get to the real truth. That is why so many people are leaving.

When is the term "Last Days" not correct? Is it after 130 years?
Should we get a new understanding and call it the "Last decades" or "Last Century's"?

The growing irrelevance of the Watchtower message
by drew sagan inin many ways it appears as if the watchtower movement is slowing down.
a number of changes over the last few years certainly show that the watchtower is in a period of transition.
they have cut back on the number of magazines they print as well as lowered the cost of production by eliminating things like hard backed books.

I am 31 years old and I can remember going to a door all by my self when I was about 14, and the man at the door asked me what happend in 1975 with the JW's. I said that I dont have any idea but I will ask my dad. So I went back to the car and asked him about 1975. He told me the standard anwser that some brothers sold there homes thaught that the end was coming then. So I never looked into it until about 1 year ago. Now I understand !!

What is going on with all of the fear of weather? My parents and grandparents all all worried about this WIERD WEATHER. Is the Botchtower pushing the weather as a sign of the last days? I remember earthquakes as a sign of the last days but not tornado's or huricanes.
