I'm sorry I knocked on your door
by corpusdei inthey say the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
nowhere is that more evident, i think, than in the kingdom hall.
like so many others that i knew, i thought the watchtower society had it right, that their answers were the correct ones.

Bill if you have followed endured this whole thread, then you will see how maths goes completely out the window when the person is factoring in other deluded reasonings.

Were you ever DF'd? For what and how long?
by QuestioningEverything ini was df'd when i was 20 or so for fornication.
i got reinstated when i was 24. i had a son during that time and i was worried about us if we didn't get back to the fold and 'protection' of the organization.

but disfellowshipping is not automatic despite what you may believe to be the case.
Egg, I never said it was. Go and reread what I did actually say.
BTW, no one is disfellowshipped for visiting or posting messages to an apostate website
Hmm well i'm sure there are some here who would say otherwise due to personal experience. Plus if this was really the case why do you keep bleating on about saying this ISN'T an apostate website... if it doesnt matter?

OK the DATES inserted by Bill... As this is what you picked up on not the LENGTH of the reigns.
Well we can all add and subtract cant we?
But you cant Egg. 607 is blinding you into SEEing extra years as being needed on Nabonidus reign to reach your target date. Provide the PROOF with quotes to this effect. i.e NOT what you BELIEVE to be the case, but what you can PROVE to be the case.

If you are not rank and file JW then why not state exactly what you are? You clearly dont follow the rules at any rate.
The sites status and aims has little to do with it being termed apostate or not. If the make up of the posters is largely of ex jws then that in itself should preclude you from even being here, not legalistic terminology to satisfy your conscience.
Calling Bill a liar is a bit of an insult coming from one so proficient in it as yourself:
*** w00 5/15 p. 12 par. 13 Pay Attention to God's Prophetic Word for Our Day ***
Learning that his father, Nabopolassar, had died, this young man named Nebuchadnezzar took the throne in 624 B.C.E. During his 43-year reign, he built an empire that embraced territories once occupied by Assyria, and he extended his domain into Syria and Palestine down to the border of Egypt.
*** w65 1/1 p. 29 The Rejoicing of the Wicked Is Short-lived ***
Evil-merodach reigned two years and was murdered by his brother-in-law Neriglissar, who reigned for four years, which time he spent mainly in building operations. His underage son Labashi-Marduk, a vicious boy, succeeded him, and was assassinated within nine months. Nabonidus, who had served as governor of Babylon and who had been Nebuchadnezzar's favorite son-in-law, took the throne and had a fairly glorious reign until Babylon fell in 539 B.C.E. He devoted his time to literature, art and religion. He is reported to have been the son of a priestess of the moon at Harran (Haran), which fact had endeared him to Nebuchadnezzar.
The last one you can find yourself.
You still avoided answering my 2 points above.

Bill though correct, that's far too simple for the egg.
Egg, I dont have to prove anything. ...You are the one attempting to defend 607 so the onus is on you.
You still haven't proved your claims, here's two for you to stump up the goods with:
1. 35 years for Nabonidus / Belshazzar.
2. That Daniel 2:1 should be taken as meaning something entirely different from what it plainly states. (yes i know you think you have answered this, but i want to see you twist it again thanks)
As far as point 1. goes Josephus whom you are so keen to bring into this discussion says this regarding Belshazzars reign:
Baltasar (called Naboandelus by the Babylonians) 17 years.
I think it's fair to say that Josephus is saying that Belshazzar and Nabonidus are the SAME person. But i guess you will vehemenently disagree and bring in all kind of non relevant material to say that's NOT what he meant.
If you are going to use Josephus as a defense for 607 then you will only be seen to be cherry picking. I've already pointed out what he said about the length of time between Nebs 18th year and the fall of Baylon that he gives it 100 years. So was Jerusalem desolate for 100 years? No. Does this help 607? No.
He also gives the length of the kings of Israel and years from temple dedication to destruction. None of which add up with his own chronology. So quite plainly he is WRONG. So why even use him at all in this? His only relevance is to the period he was eye witness to which was the destruction of Jerusalem in 66 - 70 A.D.
As to the point I made about your're being on this site Egg. If you or I were to go and speak to your body of elders or CO and discuss with them your posting on here in attemps to defend JWs from ex JWs, apostates, persons weak in faith (their terminologies), we all know what their advice to you would initially be. Get off that site!!
If you failed to heed their advice over time and despite counsel to do so you refused to desist from posting or visiting here and continued to engage with known apostates and ex JWs, we both of us know full well that yuo would yourself be subject to judicial action and likely be disfellowshipped.

ALWAYS, has WTBTS literiture on them regardless of occaision. (serious)
Dresses ready for ministry at ALL times like they are told to do, even when fixing the car. (possible)
Some may even wear convention badges continually throughout the whole year between conventions until they get the new one, then start again with new badge. (never say never!)

Nice get out of jail free card right there... If no one can prove you are with someone "all night" then they can't get a JC on you it looks like to me. Stupid legalistic fucktards.
