I discovered your podcast back in November. Informative, well delivered and very nicely produced. I think it's also perfect for people who were never JWs at all.
keep em coming!
many years ago, my husband and i appeared on the board that was known as h20 aka simon's site.
it has been a while since we have posted anything, so i guess i can say that this is like coming out of retirement.
lol.

i have a question for elders here or recent elders.
were the elders, in the last 10 years, given instruction to keep a copy of every publishers blood card on file at the kh?.
we moved to our current cong 6 years ago, and shortly after we moved in, the boe requested everyone update and give a copy of card to the kh.
there are days that i drop to the ground and kiss the earth in gratitude that i was born a woman.
at least women didn't have anything to do with writing the bibble.
and women don't come up with this nonsense.
any body know?
if this has been discussed i missed it.
i think the january study watchtower is a concerted attempt to reduce the numbers claiming to be anointed.
but i love the sneaky way they go about it this time.
They've tried discrediting the current "newly anointed" because it threatens their power structure & delegitimizes the GB claim to authority. This demeaning approach will only work for awhile.
the only long-term solution is the inevitable new light: "144,000 is a figurative number." Fuckin guarantee that change is coming. Guaran-damn-tee it.

This is going to backfire on them. This is simply going to reduce the anointed population to a high concentration on nutjobs who "don't think... they know."
a real crazy person doesn't think they're crazy--they think everyone else is.
i also love their attempt at explaining what being anointed feels like. It's sounds exactly like how it is to be gay, but the bOrg flatly ignores the "you just know" explaination for LGBT people.
doesn't that throw off the date?.

in establishing the length of the seven times of the gentiles, a time or year of 360 days is used, to give 2,520 days, which become 2,520 years when ezekiel 4:6 is applied.
Let's not forget:
in addition to lunar/solar/biblical year, you also need to arbitrarily correlate one inch per year when measuring the internal passages of the great pyramid of Giza in order to arrive at 1914 in the first place.
only then do you have to shoehorn 607 into the mix.
and the word is... .

here it is in context, just in case you're curious about how to use this new word.. article: being faithful leads to god's approval.
