Dearest Brother Farkel. We contacted Brother Walkin to pass on this dear letter to you.
SSsshhhh! We want you to chair our next Governing Body meeting. Could you please come up with something more unique to keep the friends busy. Trusting in all your skills.
kisses on the neck for you just like the first century brothers did it.
Btw, bring your beer or whiskey to the meeting.

i knew some jws that lived for examining so -called bible prophecy per watchtower interpretation.
everytime they thought a "new point" was being brought out in a watchtower, they would begin their speculations and discuss their views with like minded theorists.. personally, i never got into bible prophecy, especially after realizing how the watchtower has changed their opinions over the years.. did you really get into prophecy or were you more into other aspects of jwism?.
What I want to know is,who was the one that actually dreamed up that stuff and wrote it down? Of course, now I know that it's all fiction.

telling your kids there is a santa claus... or telling them they will never grow old and die?
i know which one i find more hurtful..
Back in the twenties The Judge Rutherford printed the booklet: "Millions Now Living Will Never DIE!" They are all dead now including him! "You Can Live Foever On A Paradise Earth" they are not pushing that book out in the field service anymore! Big Big Lies!
At least with Santa you get something, you get to talk to a person that really listens to you, and then comes your request. With the Watchtower you get nothing, they don't give, they take and take and keep on taking, your youth, your power, your money, and your life.

In the book of Daniel,"The March Of The World Powers" got me good. I did the public talk on that one, the head of gold representated such and such etc. Down to the toes where we are supposed to be right now!
Walkin
i know what the witness response is to this but what do you say now?.
You assume that there is a God for you to ask that question of those who believe a God exists. If God does exist then the answer to your question is yes if he cared about his creation you would think that he would of done something by now even 2,000 years after his son died to correct all matters.
However, sidebar discussion your honor, the responses are mixed, some answer from what the Bible tells them, others from what they beleve as to his existence or not.
My first paragraph answers your question. And we could stop there. because the second paragraph is really moot. Each has his / her own belief and answers to the great question of ....Why God? Why God? WHY!

minimus started a thread asking why the resurrection was comforting.
i said i would start a new thread to get more responses to *my question*:.
why do so many people want to see dead relatives?
Its the never ending question: "Where Are The Dead?" Pick whatever answer, belief system etc. gives you comfort while you are the one living. Then when death comes with all its denials???????

i found the site.
does anybody know who runs this or anything about it?
it's pretty interesting!.
Nothing new here. It hurts the eyes. This place is good enough for me.
Walkin
what connection do you make?.
I wish that I could really sit down with them and go through the years of the history of the Watchtower Society. I wish that I could spare them the years of capitivity that they are and will continue to experience.
I have empathy for them because I too was once like them.
I am talking about the rank and file, the individuals who are reaching out for that "Carrot." I have no compassion for those in positions of power and abuse their positions knowing full well what they are doing.

the whole wt yesterday, which was supposed to be about love, actually centered on how we should react to 'persecutors'.
it was horrible to hear the audience comments...calling 'worldly people' everything from 'they are unkind and mean' to them being 'hateful and unneighborly'.
i sat there and thought about how this 'us vs. them' mentality is the very thing that is contributing to the divisive and separatist world we live in.
Hi Walk Tall! When they are willing to shun and break up their own families, it shoud come as no surprise that they would behave this way toward the world.
They do not have the Christlike personality, as this Watchtower lesson demonstrated.
And remember this study article is not for the public, it is for the rank and file only.
