Good point donut hole. They are in essence saying that the bible writers in the 1st century were not part of the fds.

F&DS has just become GB - when is this new light disseminated to R&F?
by NeverKnew ini think i get that this meeting on october 6 was by invitation only.
if i asked a jw to research who the f&ds was, i'm assuming that they'd tell me it is the annointed and maybe even provide me with wt literature from that cd explaining this.
...or would they already know about the change?

Questions on new understanding (FDS - GB)
by Weana insome questions arise with the new understanding:.
was there a slave class between the 1st century and the 20th century?.
in w march 1, 2004, it was stated, that the slave could not be a single man, because "acording to jesus words" the slave had started his work in 1st century and would still be in action in 20th century.. was the slave in action in 1914?

So if I understand this right the fds wasn't in existence until 1919? So they mean to tell us that the entire Greek scriptures written by the apostles and others really didn't come from the "fds" as a group because the group didn't exist yet?
Lies upon lie upon lies.

The trotteted out the ridiculous overlapping generation bullshit at the annual meeting 3 years ago. It tends to be a symbolic corporate meeting filled with more crap than an actual corporate meeting.

Mc rubbermallet this is a page turner. It's really the best thread I have read in a while. After you are done please compile it into one thread as a combination.

I could see them dumping the missionaries. I mean think about how much damage they could cause in their home countries if headquarters just sent them a letter saying "your fired".
Get them all together, out of their element to tell them the great news about their reassignment to wherethehell Kansas.
Again total speculation.

It's a longshot, but maybe they will say "the work is done" Matt. 24:14 has been accomplished.
Think of how much money they will save by bringing missionaries home. Ramping down production of printed material, and liability from a pioneer pedo. The d2d work brings in very few coverts, and the flock is wearing out and dropping off.

Eric's video and audio recording of the meeting was ingenious. I think that showing what really happens behind closed doors in the JC meetings will be enlightening to many. Plus he was DFed for simply holding a different opinion than the GB.
This practice of disfellowshipping those who simply cannot believe the ever changing interpretations of the society is contrary to the concept of free speech that the organization itself champions for its own ministry. Their message is clear.....If you do not wholeheartedly believe everything we tell you (even though it is subject to change), we will take all of your friends and family from you. What a loving organization.
Eric you are the Man! I hope to see you on Dateline exposing this false religion for what it is.

Would YOU volunteer for a mission to Mars if you knew you would not return?
by Nathan Natas inone possible scenario for future manned exploration of mars is that the astronauts would be given what amounts to a "one-way ticket" with enough fuel and supplies to get them there and keep them alive but with no plans to return them to earth.. this may strike our modern sinsibilities as an absurd requirement for a mission, and yet it is not much different from what prospect was faced by ocean voyagers during the "age of exploration" right here on earth.
comments?
if you were able to qualify, would you be willing to do this?.

No. I love my wife and kids too much. I would rather have three years with them than 3 years in a capsule to go to mars. Take a look at things geologically ( in terms of time) and it becomes a stupid mission. Our probes are sending back good intel. There is no need to waste the nations money and several lives to go to mars.
Life is short. It is a waste to go to mars. Just my opinion based on where I am at in my life.
