apple eating naked women. GaryB
Would this be the same woman who came up with this?
This 100% juice beverage is a sweet combination of orange, pineapple, apple, and banana juices/purees. It has been further enhanced with Echinacea, astragaus, vitamin C and zinc to promote well being and good health. The sweet citrus flavor is very enjoyable -- overall a great tasting beverage.

Nope, I just love watching their sports teams. And I love Lawrence too, the most beautiful town in Kansas.

WATCHTOWER BIBLE & TRACT SOCIETY OF NEW YORK 25 Columbia Heights,
Brooklyn, 11201 718-560-5000 www.watchtower.org
Revenue: $951 million Industry: Publishing CEO: Don Adams Employees:
5,227 (all volunteers); local, 3,000
The Brooklyn print shop responsible for producing almost half of the
books used by Jehovah's Witnesses worldwide will soon complete its
final run. The Watchtower Bible & Tract Society of New York printery
that has produced more than 1 billion books since 1927 is slated for
closure now that printing, binding and shipping operations will be
moved to a Walkill, N.Y., location. Walkill's new bindery equipment
will be able to produce hardcover books and deluxe Bibles at a rate of
120 a minute.
In May, Watchtower announced plans to sell the 1-million-square-foot
building - just one of the buildings in the Brooklyn waterfront
complex. "Perhaps this building will be used by others in a way that
is compatible with the Brooklyn waterfront development," said Robert
Alexander, a spokesman for Watchtower. The organization headquarters
will remain.
Watchtower says these changes will contribute to a streamlined flow of
literature to its 12,000 congregations in the United States. The
Jehovah's Witnesses' primary journal, The Watchtower, has an
international circulation of 25 million in 147 languages.Don't worry, they have the money.

Noah...that drunken boat builder?
by shotgun ini've learned a ton on this forum and elsewhere which pretty much disproves noah's global flood to me personally?.
long before this as a dub though one thing always bothered me about the account and how unreasonable it seemed even if you discount the animals.. .
noah had three sons in 600 yrs (noah got it even less than me), his sons did not have any children before the flood.

Heathen, Ohio is quite a long ways from the North Pole. Take a look at what Larc is referring to.
The grooves on Kelley's Island have been the source of debate for over 100 years. Some say they were cut by glacier ice, others say by jets of subglacial water. Note the curved forms suggesting fluid flow. The smaller grooves lie inside a larger one framed by the fence. You are looking in the direction that the glacier flowed. Note the texture line about 1/2 way up the grooves. Above this line the limestone bedrock is more weathered than below the line because till was more recently removed, exposing the grooves. See an example from Hargreaves Glacier.

Low Meeting Attendance Means Wrongdoing!
by Englishman indid anyone ever come across the idea that meeting attendances were an indication of how much spirit jehovah was giving or witholding from the congregation?.
..and that this was directly related to whether or not there was any secret wrondoing within the congregation that was "blocking the spirit" and thereby restricting the "increase"?.
just a couple of instances:.

Can't say I have ever experienced anything around here like that, but I would not doubt it could have happened.
It does make me wonder about the logic of it. How could a God that does not desire any to be destroyed, cause them to stay away from his word until some minor problem gets fixed? Just another thing that does not make sense.

Why do the watchtower studies have no doctrine anymore?
by truthseeker inover the last few years, it has become apparent that the teachings which were popular in the 80s, the ones that have not changed (unlike the generation of 1914), are no longer being mentioned in the study articles.. teachings like the 1200 days, the gentile times, even 1914 is not referenced with 607bce anymore.
it seems as if each article is nothing more than a lesson, how can we do more, give more, donate more etc.. it seems that only their books contain the doctrine they expound, the watchtower has no doctrine.. what happened to the articles on hellfire, immortality of the soul, condition of the dead?
these are never mentioned in wt articles.. the quality of the articles is so dumb it's laughable.

Athanasius,
You could have it. To blast full speed into more new light, perhaps it is time to let some other older light grow dim first.

At first I think it was because wearing a beard reminded JWs of Russell, but it soon became a way of keeping all men looking alike. Kinda like wearing a suit jacket and tie at all kingdom hall functions.
