  The Generation Atop The Skyscraper

  one of the most famous photographs taken by the late charles c ebbets showed workmen casually eating lunch on the 69th floor of the ge building during the contruction of rockefeller center.

  this photo was taken 76 years ago, in the summer of 1932. a lot has changed since then.

  many of the buildings you see below don't exist anymore.

  TD, since you brought this up on Tuesday's thread, I wanted to add my understanding. For as long as I was in the JWs (the last twenty years) I was taught that there is currently no Great Crowd. Dubs on earth today who aren't anointed are Other Sheep. The Great Crowd does not exist until after armageddon. Using this reasoning, there is no need for the end to come within in anyone's particular lifetime.

  That may contradict what's in print, but that's what the R&F are being told.

  since i'm still suffering in this crackerjacks organization, these are some of statements that just drive me nuts.

  1. in service: "we are not here to convert you" funny how jws have the true religion but resort to deception and outright lies in order to get people to listen

  2. to other jws: "we won't have to deal with this in the new system" 7 billion evil doers dead and gone, no longer create problems for us

  "Do you still believe in the truth?"

  Of course! I only believe things that are true. Why would I choose to believe lies?

  It's not just JWs. I've learned to stay away from ebay. 75% of the time I've bought or sold something, I got ripped off.

  No. There are billions of people on the planet. There is more than one person we can be compatible with.

  I will second this and add that, not only can we share love with multiple partners in our lifetime, we can share love with multiple partners at one time.

  darkl1ght3r, it's nice to see that the dubs have a equal opportunity policy, allowing mentally handicapped persons to reach the status of D.O.

  Told to me by a brother at Bethel: "Just do whatever the elders tell you. They've never been known to steer anyone wrong."
