do you remember some of the weird and wacky stuff emanating from the watchtower society?
let's make a list from memory that we can use to inject a little humor into our discussions with jehovah's witnesses.
- venus may be an enormous jurassic park.. - germs don't cause disease.. - no beards allowed.

"1914 and the tree and 607 is not wacky because that did not originate with JWs, not even Russell. That was before Barbour."
The point is not who originated 1914. The point is that the WTS has taught and still teaches this wackiness.
But out of curiosity, could you document who before Russell taught 1914.

I remember Russell saying something about the shape of a man's head determines intelligence.

Yes, 1914 from a tree stump is wacky.
So is 607 BCE.

Yes, add to that we assimilate character from the blood donor.

we had a nice long talk and i brought up some things that make me think that this isn't the "truth" and she somewhat agreed with me.
i stuck with things i personally experienced or had knowledge of plus all the changes in recent years.
she agreed on a lot of the points but still believes in god and the bible.
Excellent advice Smiddy.
sorry if this has been discussed before but on quora someone asked if rutherford had said that dinosaurs had been taken to venus .
i assume that the questioner had heard it somewhere and wanted to check it out.
i've never come across this before is it true ?
"...the Watchtower Society had its own theory long before the asteroid ... theories. It appeared, appropriately, in The Golden Age of April 1, 1931 on page 428. In describing the planets of the Solar System they mention Venus by saying:
It will be very apparent to readers of Judge Rutherford's book Creation that the present condition of Venus is about what the earth was prior to the Flood, and it is significant that some astronomers have advanced the idea that animals like the dinosaurs that once roamed this planet are now finding Venus a happy place in which to live.”
lot going on.
i had a covid divorce last year over zoom.
not pretty but i got a good deal.. anyway,.
Will Memorial attendee numbers be reported?
I wonder too about attendance at in-person regular weekly meetings.
i was thinking that since russell started the movement in 1879 which became jehovah's witnesses in 1931 never has there been a period in time when all their activities just - stopped.
especially the preaching work.. do you think they will find some obscure verse in daniel that talks about this period of time and try to make a greater fulfillment?
like the 70 weeks of years or the 42 months?
COVID has nothing to do with the Watchtower composite sign.... nor does it have anything to do with Matthew 24.
ok i`m not religious anymore but i do like any excuse to indulge myself with chocolates whatever form they come in ,eggs or bunny`s or even rabbits..
joyeuses Pâques
