How to counter a stupid illustration in the Bible Teach Book
by NVR2L8 inthe bible teach book uses the example of a math teacher who is challenged by a student who disagrees on how to resolve a math problem.
the teacher then lets him attempt to prove his point knowing that he can only fail.
the object of the exercise is to show the rest of the students that the teacher is right - that there is only one way to resolve the math problem....this is likened to jehovah letting satan exercise his power over the world so that the entire universe can witness his failure and that only jehovah's ways lead to happiness.... instead of maths, what if the teacher taught chemistry and a student would want to prove that the teacher is wrong when he says that certains chemicals can't be mixed without causing an explosion that would wipeout the school...would any sane, responsible, loving teacher allow such a student to experiment and wipeout the whole class just so the teacher can prove he was right?

How Will the Society React to the Hundred Year Anniversary of 1914?
by slimboyfat init's only a couple of years away now and what a headache it must present to the gb - providing they have given it much thought already.
there probably is no elegant way of presenting the hundred year long failure of the end to come; the fact that the "short period of time" of satan being cast down to the earth has now stretched beyond any credibility.
but they have to deal with it one way or another.

I would probably say just a vauge mention of it in the kool aid edition of the watchtowers. Just the same dried up drivel that we have been reading about for years and years. Some new light or some sort of new revelation.

How many got the 'cold shoulder' from JW family that attended the 'special' talk?
by undercover inwell, the memorial and special talk was a one-two punch at trying to guilt inactive ones back to the fold.
while it doesn't affect those of us with clarity, it can impact those who may have been influenced by us undercover apostates, but yet haven't reached a critical crisis of conscious moment of their own.
the 'special' talk especially was aimed at guilting those people back with a good guilt inducing section toward the end of the talk (saw the outline on another thread).. i noticed a marked diffence in attitude in family members who attended the meeting while i stayed home and watched the masters.

The Stupidity of the present generation - The Golden Age, July 29, 1925
by VM44 inthe golden age, july 29, 1925, p. 688.
"the stupidity of the present generation will be a subject of comment and criticism a hundred years hence.
the resurrected millions will look back to this time, and wonder that both leaders and people were so utterly blind to the significance of present-day events.

Everybody on facebook that I grew up with cannot believe what happened. I never really talked with her, but I didnt dislike her. Now I am wishing that I had said hi to her at the hall when I knew her when I was a kid. Its even crazier that this happened the same week as their memorial.
