The GB when challenged as to why the vaccinations and why it's OK to have them will pull out a scripture they used in the past (....use the world , but not to the FULL) ,don't have a bible here but many older members would remeber the WTS usage of this one.

Time, times and half a time - nerd time
by Anony Mous inso, the famous 607 calculation to 1914 involves the above prophecy.
the common explanation is that time is one unit, times is an unsubstantiated number of units.. to prove you can make it say any date, we must write it as a formula:.
date = t + nt + 0.5t where n >= 2. so simplified:.

Damn , I wish I'd read the watchtower literature more carefully and it would have given me the university education I need to understand this topic !

Hi Lostatsea ,as DH said but one day in the future maybe one bit of jewelry of Jesus reclining before the JW.Org symbol may be seen as acceptable.
Well ,years ago no one would have dreamt that a symbol would be OK to use, and brothers can make money from putting that symbol JW.Org on things to sell ,just browse the internet and see

"road to nowhere"
That's really my point, the standards are lower ,but iff you think of the way WTS presents itself as gods channel with higher standards compared to the world, surely this would present an opportunity to show the people there,and including the congregation that they have a high standard but they don't do they?
Unless it's for the the GB house - see, same old worldly hypocrisy as everyone else.
And yes I worked on many quick builds and the standard of work and organisation was nothing like the work they put in to get the media out and take pictures. it was just worldly razzamataz.

They really are becoming mainstream when they say god is performing miracles for them in the form of sand !
Shows how cynical the GB is to fool the dumb sheep with this story. We are talking about making construction grade concrete for a public building are'nt we ?
Well I worked for 18 years in the concrete manufacturing industry including the actual manufacturing ,management and laboratory of concrete production ,and I can safely say that you do not use salty beach sand for construction !
As has been pointed out sea water is full of chemicals including salts which will make the concrete go hard prematurely which in turn can cause bad cracking.
Sand that is used in concrete production is washed and screened to remove impurities and the particles are graded in size carefully ,even iff the beach sand was washed to remove salts it is basically a same size grains silica sand with no fine clay type particles which basically makes a "dead" mix, even with the cement added to the mix, it won't be workable and if a concrete pump were used in the placing it would probably jam the pump from it's lack of ability to flow, and finishing the surface would be a nightmare unless lots of certain chemicals such as air entrainers were used to aerate the mix.
Not to mention ,over time, how the salts in the mix will break the cementicious bond and rust the rebar before it's time!
So iff the GB OK the use of this crappy type concrete thru their "theocratic arrangement" and Jehovahs poor judgement of sand choice ,well that just about confirms their standards in religion and building quality, and also how cynically they view the local islanders as poor dumb slobs and how that will be ok for them !
But I bet they would'nt like to use that sand to build the house they live in hoping the concrete will hold the building up - (words deleted here I have to stop that!)

Telling a JW to pissoff!
by Overrated inas a jw, have you ever tell an elder, pioneer, or other jw to go pissoff!.

Not in those exact words as I remember but here's what happened
The elder I studied with to baptism had a teenage son who in time was caught up in fornication with a young sister who was known to be bad association. She seduced him ,and he was pretty innocent for a 17 year old witness kid because of his parents.
So he got in to trouble and I got wind of it and got another brother to go see him to snatch him out of the hand of satan. What I did'nt know was some of the elders had found out too and called me and the other brother to the hall for an inqisition.
Well when they started on me they accused me of usurping their headship waving Watchtowers in my face that had no relevance and one even started lying about related things!
I tried to point out that I had told the young man to contact the elders after our personal discusssion ,and also that I did not know the elders had ,supposedly , the situation in hand . They just wanted to rant at me and wanted blood . They DF'd the boy even though after I had spoken to him ,he repented to them straight away!
They hated the boys father who was Chinese /Russian descent and on the body of elders.
I turned to one elder and told him he was a liar and why ,and the German elder I told him he did not apply what was in the Watchtowers said in this case ,and from memory said he acted like Gestapo. Well that did'nt go down too well ,and considering I was only newly baptised I was lucky not to get kicked out too.
I still was a little rough around the edges and did'nt take shit from anyone ,so maybe I did tell them to fuck off!
