And the amazing cover by Nazareth:
the title pretty much says it all.. it's true that there are many classics that simply can't be topped but it doesn't stop people from trying anyway.
and what do ya know; occasionally someone does succeed.
here i will post at least one notable example.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-o9gf_sofbm&p=301f39587863d18d&playnext=1&index=3.

And the amazing cover by Nazareth:
years ago before i took the time and effort to study logic and argumentation, i went to a market and bought some toothpaste.
it was a little-known brand and it touted "baking soda" as its magic ingredient.
it was also cheaper than the name-brand toothpastes and that helped me in my decision.
Since I'm running out of tumbleweeds on the other thread, I'll move my question here:
"As loyal servants of Jehovah, why would we even want to peek at the propaganda put out by these rejecters of Jehovah's table who now verbally beat those who are helping us take in 'healthful words'?" (WT 7/1/1994, p.12)
debator: please explain your lack of loyalty in peeking at our "propaganda".
I have to say there is nothing like ex-Jws for trying to be the conciences of those remaining in the witnesses around them.
This quote is particularly funny, given that it's YOU who has sought US out, not the other way around...
(PS - is anyone else getting a kick out of debator labeling everything under the sun a "strawman"?)
"as loyal servants of jehovah, why would we even want to peek at the propaganda put out by these rejecters of jehovah's table who now verbally beat those who are helping us take in 'healthful words'?
" (wt 7/1/1994, p.12).
i really couldn't have asked the question any better myself... c'mon you self-proclaimed loyal servants of jehovah!
i'm disgusted.
so, i'm formally challenging djeggnog to either substantiate or retract his outrageous claim that:.
1. russell made no predictions about 1914.. 2. specifically, russell never predicted christ's "coming" for 1914.
This thread ought to be retitled, "DJeggnog exposed"...
Every student of Watchtower history knows that Russell predicted the "parousia" for 1874 and the COMPLETE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE KINGDOM for 1914.
Eggnog is not duped. He's a liar who doesn't care about truth. He won't be "reached" by anyone. His mission (like his cult masters) is to deceive people.
His last post (and indeed all of his comments on this and other threads) demonstrates this clearly.
Essan: Good on you for sticking with this and COMPLETELY exposing DJeggnog for what he is.
is there anything in print by the wtbs that actually says or strongly suggests only jw's will survive armageddon and live in the new system?
i know someone that has a hard time believing that god will destroy almost 6 billion people and doesn't recall ever being told that only jw's will survivie..
The calm and sometimes jovial way Ciro Aulicino talks about Jehovah's "mass annihilation" of all non-jws is nothing short of chilling.
Anyone who hasn't listened to the 10 minute excerpt of Ciro's talk should do so.
dear ones.
rather, it is our adversary who says we will do anything... anything... to avoid it.
a-n-y-t-h-i-n-g. even curse god to his face.
However, we are the clay, God the Potter. He can and does do with us as He sees fit.
I'm not sure I agree with this concept; but even if his being the creator gives him the "right" to allow us to suffer, it sure as hell doesn't mean he's not cruel when he does it....
dear ones.

snowbird,
What would you call someone who was at the scene of that atrocity, who had the power to prevent that baby from being thrown into that pot of scalding water, but instead he stood idly by and watched it take place... And then he goes on to do the same thing again, and again, and again, and again...
dear ones.

Why does it matter? God permits "us" to suffer. While having the power to eliminate our suffering, he allows it to continue. What he "wants" does not seem particularly relevant...
post your summer time songs and videos.. chuck prophet: summer time thing.
give it a listen.
see if you can't just feel the heat and see it rising off the pavement.. to start this thread off:.
