More-this is the most important thread to me here at JWN in 5 years!
The whole cannonicity of the 27 books being approved by God is HUGE.
How did/could/would God use paganized catholic bishops prompted by murderous emperor Constanine (saw the cross in the sky telling him to slaughter) to collate his word?
It makes me breathless...

AndDontCallMeShirleyThis is one of the great contradictions of Watchtower reasoning.
BIGGIE I in fact pray throughout the day perhaps 8-10 times a day I pray to God through Jesus that the canonicity of the 27 NT books and collated by Constantines Nicean bishops is a HUGE problem.
I tell God this all day long! BIGGIE problem
Amen!

if they were able to win on this ground, they could get out completely (although it could still be appealed to the ca supreme court).
Problemaddict said "I think the day will come when they wish they would have just paid this, and moved on."
Ditto
the life of a human being progresses toward maturity and peaks and then gradually atrophies into old age, inability, possibly debilitation and then death.. it is the same for all people unless they meet with an accident or misfortune along that continuum.. i propose that we measure and test the virtue of being a jehovah's witness by focusing on the blind spot of their religion.. .
what is the blind spot?.
the watchtower society is in major denial that the members of that religion will actually grow old and die.. as a consequence of this major blind spot the members are less likely to include provisions for that inevitability.. the active and committed jw spends a preponderance of their vital years serving the needs of the group and not for saving for old age.. once that outstanding performance lessens and fizzles into decrepitude--the society itself makes no provision for their senescence.. .

All the prophetic stuff in da book has 1914 for start of ground zero entire chapters are wraped around 1914 the false date,so the entire book is bogus trash.
Just to think the Watchtower had the gall to 'revise' it a least twice.
