  i love r&b music, funk and soul, even some disco.

  i’ve been listening to retro soul radio out of london lately and the music is without commercial interruptions 24 hours a day.

  mostly 70s and 80s music.. i love everything from elvis presley to tom jones too.

  i know there were prior kicking out of watchtower's bethelites by the higher ups under the guise of down sizing.

  hybridous - "...I think leadership would be wary of trying to rally troops that it doesn't have a lot of confidence in."

  That's based on the assumption that the leadership actually makes reasoned, well-thought-out decisions.

  The Wwatchtower turning into a real laughing Stock

  by Overrated in

  over the years watchtower has turned into a real joke in the world scene.

  with the lawsuits, downsizing and decreasing numbers.

  what they use to be is gone and they will never recover the numbers they once had.

  Hey, you know what that reminds me of?

  The way the American Christian Right started trying to set up their own cultural alternatives to the movie, TV, and music industries back in the day.

  @ Pontoon...

  Now we know where the $3B they got from the Brooklyn real estate sales is going.

  Ten bucks says they sell it within a decade, though.

  Why did Paul call Jesus, “the firstborn from the dead”?

  by Doug Mason in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  "jesus christ was resurrected on nisan 16, 33 c.e., the day when the jewish high priest offered up the firstfruits of the barley harvest.

  this fits in accurately with jesus' being the "firstfruits" in the resurrection of the human dead.

  (1 cor.

  “Firstborn of the Dead”...

  ... sounds like the title of a cheesy low-budget 80s horror movie.

  JW Broadcast needs to take a leaf out of the Anglican playbook

  by Diogenesister in

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  here the arch bishop of canterbury's dean shows jw broadcast how it's done.....or rather his cat does!

  no hate speech, no lying, no over-done, fake news caster-y backdrop.and most of all no genocidal threats!.

  just a garden, a nice cup of tea and cats!.

  Mormon Apologetic Article - JW comparisons etc

  https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/what-mormons-like-me-really-believe.

  from an ex-jw perspective , i was quite interested in the above article , which the spectator ( presumably ) felt obligated for legal reasons to publish to allow a response to a rather unfavourable article below.. https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/the-troubling-history-of-mormonism.

  the arguments are fairly rehearsed and often used by jw "spokesmen".

  I have long thought of the LDS as the WTS’s nicer but weirder older cousin.
