Just my 2 cents worth but i have done a lot of playing with pictures and Photoshop and I would say it is not. The reproduction is very poor and to make the bottles blend in like that would be, in my humble opinion near impossible. What the actual story is I have no idea. Would be interesting to know the source of the picture.

WT rule #1: Never miss an opportunity to make a fool of yourself
by Nathan Natas inas serious students of the holy scriptures, we all know what a great role the history of korea has played in the outworking of the divine purpose.. (you realize i'm pulling your leg, right?
tell me when to stop...).
this being the obvious and incontrovertible truthtm, we can expect that in the not-too-distant future the wtb&ts will announce that north korea is the "king of the north" and that kingdom of antarctica is the "king of the south.

If indeed the king of the north is Canada they might smite the king of the south mit der hockey sticks. But since the king of the south (if Mexico) could only retaliate with the Piñata (is it mexican?) looks like some heavy shite comin down the pipe.

Not sure if they would go to the King of the North to print all their magazines though. Might be kinda risky, no?

Today's daily text from the cd brought to mind some threads
by therevealer inthreads that mentioned some of the long winded prayers at assemblies.
i guess this should be included in the instructions these brothers receive.. tuesday, november 23. when praying, do not say the same things over and over again, just as the people of the nations do, for they imagine they will get a hearing for their use of many words.-matt.
6:7.. jesus did not mean that we should never repeat heartfelt pleas and expressions of thanksgiving in prayer.

Wow - thanks Marcus Scriptus. It's only 6:36 am and I've already learned something for the day. Thanks for sharing your research - it's very interesting.
Funny how you were able to learn more from a fellow poster on this site than the "channel" chosen by god. Ha,ha.

Does anyone think there will ever be a good GB?
Does anyone else think that is the perfect oxymoron.

Awake! February 2011 page 21
SOMETHING BETTER THAN GOLD Wayne Qu worked as an environmental scientist for the Academy of Sciences in China. To advance his career, he and his wife, Sue, went to Europe in the 1990's, where Wayne pursued higher education. While there, the couple met Jehovah's Witnesses and discussed the Bible with them. In 2000, Wayne and Sue moved to Australia, where both continued their secular studies-Sue in molecular biology. They also resumed their Bible study. Wayne explains: "We had spent decades getting advanced university degrees. Yet, I would say to myself: 'In the end, we all grow old, get sick, and die. Is that the purpose of life?' It all seemed to be in vain. The Bible, however, gave Sue and me logical, satisfying answers to life's most important questions. "Our study of the Bible also made us examine a concept we had never considered before -the existence of a Creator. I read the Witnesses' publication Life-How Did It Get Here? By Evolution or by Creation? as well as a work by Charles Darwin on evolution. This reading, along with my own scientific research, convinced me that there is a Creator. Sue came to the same conclusion. "Another thing that convinced us that there is a God is the power of the Bible to change lives for the better. Indeed, this amazing book has given us not only a hope for the future but also genuine friends and a stronger marriage. Sue and I were baptized in 2005, glad that we had found something of much greater value than higher education and 'gold that perishes.'"-1 Peter 1:7.

conundrum for the writing department
by therevealer inin the latest awake magazine in an article "are science and the bible compatible?
" three men of science are referred to and quoted, henry schaefer, professor of chemistry, austrian physicist and nobel laureate erwin schrodinger and john lennox, professor of mathematics at the university of oxford, england.
if you do a google search of these names you will be see that all three have years and years of worldly education to their credit (which is contrary to all things watchtower).

In the latest Awake magazine in an article "Are Science and the Bible Compatible?" three men of science are referred to and quoted, HENRY SCHAEFER, PROFESSOR OF CHEMISTRY, Austrian physicist and Nobel laureate Erwin Schrodinger and John Lennox, professor of mathematics at the University of Oxford, England. If you do a google search of these names you will be see that all three have years and years of worldly education to their credit (which is contrary to all things watchtower). Also if you read some of their writings it becomes obvious that their would be not one iota of support for the teachings and doctrines of the society. So the question is why do they do this and the obvious answer is that if they wish to write an article like this they must. They just don't have credible resources of their own. It is worth a quick read about Wayne Qu and his wife on page 21. Totally amazing that they didn't slip in some bull about them giving up all that their education gave them to go pioneering. I also found this interesting "I read the Witnesses' publication Life-How Did It Get Here? By Evolution or by Creation? as well as a work by Charles Darwin on evolution."

When praying, do not say the same things over and over again, just as the people of the nations do, for they imagine they will get a hearing for their use of many words.-Matt. 6:7.
Jesus did not mean that we should never repeat heartfelt pleas and expressions of thanksgiving in prayer. In the garden of Gethsemane on the night before he died, Jesus repeatedly used "the same word" in prayer. (Mark 14:32-39) It would be wrong for us to mimic the repetitious prayers of "people of the nations." "Over and over again," they repeat memorized phrases that include many unnecessary words. It did worshippers of Baal no good to call upon the name of that false god "from morning till noon, saying: ‘O Baal, answer us!'" (1 Ki. 18:26) Millions today offer wordy, repetitious prayers, thinking in vain that they "will get a hearing." But Jesus helps us to realize that the "use of many words" in long and repetitious prayers is of no value from Jehovah's standpoint. w09 2/15 3:8, 9 -

Bonnie_Clyde - Oh my! You typed out and posted my thoughts. If the dubs spend to much money on stuff like health care will they have money left to donate now or leave to the society in their wills.
