He did not choose the job that paid 'more benefits', could that possibly have included health care? With three children chances are he regretted that decision.

philipines disaster news up on jw.org
by Captain Blithering inhttp://www.jw.org/en/news/
wouldn't it be nice if they said 'you know what, we've made millions in property sales recently, lets donate a couple million to a philipines relief fund..'
ten vans full, probably just for jw's.

Jona received a report from a brother who visits the Philippine branch office in Quezon City on an almost daily basis. According to him, there are an unconfirmed number of 34 brothers dead from the typhoon. That report was modified by the branch, which issued a report of 26 confirmed dead. All of them had sought shelter in a Kingdom Hall in Tacloban, and were killed when the storm surge swept the building away.
Sounds like they don't want to count the children (unbaptized)/

The Watchtower and the Masons
by ozziepost inthe latest edition of the free in christ ministries journal contains a very interesting article entitled the watchtower and masons.. drawing upon material from the book the watchtower & the masons by fritz springmeier, it gives the following parallels between the things that c t russell believed and those taught by the masons:.
* both believe jehovah is the most important word being the basis of their dogma, and the name of their god.
* both believe god yielded power to a lesser god.

Some very in depth discussions have been made on this thread. When people take great lengths to prove and explain their own reasonings there is going to be debate.
The WBTBS would most likely have access to Russel's original works and personal letters. Maybe the many comments brought out in this thread are another reason why they have disassociated him from being the Faithfull & Discreet Slave.

I loved the comment made by SF on page 3 of this thread about illuminate so I looked up a definition for illuminati and got this
"people claiming to possess special enlightenment or knowledge of something. " some mysterious standard known only to the illuminati of the organization " The light just gets brighter and brighter.

Announcement: Schools for Couples and Single Brothers replaced by School for 'everyone'
by dropoffyourkeylee ini know this was noted earlier:.
http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/beliefs/266186/3/the-big-announcement-this-week#.uoaoe_yo5dg.
but it was officially announced today that the school for couples and the school for single brothers were being combined with the new twist that single sisters would be allowed also.

It's not a school for everyone.
If you're married and you're partner doesn't want to attend or is not a JW you're not invited.
If you're old, you're not invited.
If you're middle aged and poor you're not invited.
I would assume that you must also be physically in good health.
This loving arrangement is brought to you by JW.org (TM).

"however those between 50 and 65 must have no health issues and must be financially independent."
No doubt Jesus would have rejected these ones as well.

Jw's: Who do you identify as the FDS?
by snare&racket inwho do you think is the fds on earth today?.
barely any jw can point at a gb member by face, fewer can name the governing body, fewer know these men in person or can account for them as people.
not one person became a jw from reading matthew 24 and saying 'aha!'.

The Governing Body has to justify it's own appointment and do so by self interpreting this parable.

It's weird to see them dressed in suits at a game.
