Dang! Billy beat me to it.
the wife and i went to the memorial strictly out of respect for my mother-in-law last night.
luckily our 20 month-old grand-baby was restless and making noise, so i quickly volunteered to take him in the back.
so i didn't have to listen to the presentation.

can someone help me understand how the wt came up with the overlapping generation theory?
i just don't understand it even though i read the information several times.
it's bewildering.
Everyone in my family born on or before 1914 is dead. The only relative I have alive now that was born in the 1920's is my Dad and he's failing.
Eventually, the Borg will have to drop the whole 1914/over-flapping generation crap because it just isn't going to fly any longer. It will be interesting to see if they come up with some new piece of garbage they want their members to swallow.
an innocent man killed in the most awful manner replayed countless time all over the world has desire for justice writ large all it.
is this something that secularists can take from a religious event.
i think so.
i have posted one other time on this website.
just for the mere fact that i wasn't anger and bitter and ready to declare the gb the sociopathic criminals that so many here ascribe to, my initial question digressed to bickering over ad hominem attacks against the gb and not my beliefs that i'm questioning.
some did give me some help on my questions.
warning for those that are still believers... this train of thought will not be faith strengthening.... i have come a long way since first stumbling on crumbs of ttatt in 2012.
(i have not come nearly as far with the wife unfortunately, but such is life.
) my critical thinking ability, thankfully, is in another stratosphere since figuring out i was a jw lab rat.
Well, obviously, you're thinking way too much. In order to have faith, you must abandon logic, reason, truth, and intellectual honesty. If you do not, you get into trouble. Once you know a thing, you can't unknow it. Like how the human genome project shows we originated in Africa, not the Middle East.
If one is to believe that the Adam and Eve story is literal truth, then what follows, logically, is that the entire human race is a product of incestuous relationships. Logic raises far more questions than the Bible or Christians have made up answers for.
the center for investigative journalism whose website is now called revealnews.org, has an entire section on stories being investigated by their staff and others on how the watchtower is handling child abuse cases.. "the jehovah’s witnesses have systematically instructed leaders to keep child sexual abuse secret from law enforcement and members of their own congregations.
" https://www.revealnews.org/topic/jehovahs-witnesses/.
please share you thoughts on this issue because i really would like to know when the governing body and their lawyers are going to properly address this issue because i can't worship in a place that allows dangerous men in, that's what they accused the catholic church of doing and now here it is that they are caught doing the same thing but have not expressed any concern for the victims.
Mica said: Who gave these 7 men the authority to ignore the health consequences of child abuse?
Their delusional belief that they are God's Chosen did.
I have said it many times ... the JW formula of Pray More + Wait on Jehovah = People Get Hurt/Sick/Dead.
