  In the end, IE just wouldn't work, but FireFox downloaded it no problem.

  A site that agrees with 607 BCE

  while doing research this morning, i came across the following website .... http://www.abc-of-christianity.com/info/740-607-judah.asp.

  i can't see a religious affiliation, although i am inclined to think a possible adventist connection.. i could not find a referral to it here, just wondering if anybody has any info on this.

  i thought jw's were the only ones who held to the 607 date..

  Interesting. I sent them an email asking if they have any further information on how they calculate the 607 date.

  for me, i would go back to the day when charles taze russell snuffed it.

  i'd wait for judge rutherford to turn up at the ibsa headquarters, then run him over with a steamroller, in true buster keaton styleee!.

  Go into the future 1000 years and see what the updated explanation of the generation is in the 3010 Watchtower.

  I would go back to the 1C and see if Jesus of Nazareth really existed and if what he taught matches the gospels.

  Then I'd go back about 4000 years earlier and see if there really was only Adam and Eve in a garden of Eden.

  What do you think the WT's ultimate irony is?

  off the top of my head it would be the fact that they say that satan's world will brainwash you when you leave the wt.. -sab.

  The policy of keeping the congregation clean by DF'ing and shunning creates undercover apostates in the congregations.

  Elders Wives/kids

  by exwhyzee in

  how many elders wives or kids have looked at the congregation files without their husband/father knowing about it?

  anyone here have any knowledge of this.

  how foolish anyone is to go to these people if they keep a written record/file on you.

  When they asked me if I only rubbed the outside of her vagina or stuck my fingers inside I remember saying, "...awkward!"

  You should have said "I'm not sure how to describe it, but I can demonstrate if you like."

  January 2011 Awake!

  i just checked and the jan.2011 issue of awake!

  pdf is now up on the jw.org website.. i noted that it was printed in canada.

  so i guess the canada branch must have gotten their new press and from now on will print the u.s. magazines there.. the average printing per issue went up to 39.9 million, an increase of more than 1.4 million per issue.

  Canada prints the Magazines.

  US prints the other publications.

  Specialization allows for more efficient use of the printing presses. I suspect it will also minimize printing interruption US headquarters move out of Brooklyn.

  DMCA Complaint from The WatchTower for links to KS-10 'Shepherding' book

  by Simon in

  1. forum

  yes, that's right, they really do not like people being able to read that book so they wanted links to it removed (it appears they have also been going after the hosts of the content itself as well).. unfortunately, i had to removed the links (which were dead anyway when i checked) and i'd ask that people don't re-post them (sorry).

  i'm sure there are lots of alternative ways for those with the information to get it to those who need it.. here are the discussions on the book:.

  According to the new elders manual, whomever filed that complaint may need to be investigated by a judicial committee since they were associating with apostates.
