ok you slutty and independent slobs, pay attention.
how many instances of loaded language and mind-control techniques can you spot in the following article from the may 2002 km?
whoever gets the most wins a brown suit from goodwill.. modesty in dress and grooming- km may 2002.
AGAIN they keep on repeating these same old boring dress codes. Every year in the spring time before the summer conventions The Big Mommy has to tell its thump suckin' kids how to tie their shoe strings... LOL... and always those same parallels: no a suit or tie nor a skirt or dress = worldliness = independent thinking = immorality = dirt = uncleanness etc...

marge was the mother of the jw man who brought me into the jws.
she had been a jw since the early 1950s, and attended the famous 1958 international convention at yankee stadium/polo grounds in new york.
marge was a very lovely person, hospitable, kind, generous, non-judgmental, and always a faithful jw.
Oh, what a terrible translation... hopefully you can understand what I mean...

Yes, Amazing, I have made the following conclusions what it comes to the issue you brought up:
---
Speech of the faithful and discreet slave –class as a group provider of the spiritual nourishment in due time is not true. The other anointed ones outside of the Governing Body don’t have any defined role in regard to the drawing up of the teachings of the organisation where as the members of the great crowd are at the same time participating in the writing process and are thereby indirectly affecting to the teachings. The anointed ones do not choose the members of the Governing Body from among themselves but on the contrary the Governing Body chooses the suitable persons to its members according to its pleasing.
The organisation = faithful and understanding slave –class = Governing Body = cult over the croup of persons? It is often spoken about the Governing Body in the very praising and appreciating tone as if it would be somehow in the supernatural direction, even though it consists of imperfect men.

i just received a box of old literature and in it is a booklet dated 1939 and written in a foreign language.
i have been unable to come up with what language or any translation of it from the translator sources i have, even though it looks norwegian to me.
it is titled "herredommet og freden.
It's norwegian I think. Maybe Kent Stainhaug can help you or Jan Haugland.

some time back i came across this interesting headline in.
the jacksonville, florida times union, dated feb. 6, 1905:.
"second adventist.
Justin,
You're right that the Second Adventism is a general term aplied to all those adventist groups in the 1800's (mainly in the US). That's why it is sometimes spoken about the Second Advent movement and the gentlemen Storrs, Wendell and Barbour were leaders in their small adventist sects from whom Russell got most of his ideas or biblical interpretations. So, in fact, he can be considered, if not a member, an advocate of adventist teachings. This explains the fact that the roots of the JWism are in the second adventism.

before you jump the gun and start offering a friendly hand maybe you should take the advice given and do some reading & research here first.
you are going to be very surprised with what you find from these so-called loving x-witnesses.. let me give you a couple of examples.. go look up the topic: bryant memorial report.
read how sadden everyone was to learn of this man who couldnt deal with lifes problems and decided to become judge and jury for his whole family and took them out with a shot gun blast to head as they slept in their beds.
Gettingout, your way of writing is not much better, either. You are doing yourself exactly the same thing you accuse us of. Why is this generalisation done by you? IMO, you are clearly exaggerating the bad sides of this site and the people here. I don't hate Jehovah nor the WTBTS even though I'm very critical of the latter. I don't get any kicks when a JW suffers a misfortune in ones life. I don't take advantage of others nor twist other peoples words.
Very sorry for you, gettingout. Besides, who gives you the right to instruct Lotus? I think she can make her own decisions whether to stay here or leave.

after the cold war and the collapse of communism the role of nato has changed.
it's also expanding slowly through the companionship of peace program and within a few years it will get new membership applicants.
and the russia is strongly against this expansion of nato, especially in the baltic states, poland, hungary etc.
Oh yeah, one, on the contrary, I'm Freddy's opposer... he was already dead when I became a JW.
Yes, I do mistakes in writing but I think I'm better than Happy Man, do you agree, one? :-D

Yes, of course, SixofNine, I know that about the Revelation. I just tried to open up a speculative discussion, that's all.
And Xander, there's no co-operative agreement yet between Nato and Russia. Situation may change sometimes rapidly. Remember how Hitler and Stalin had an agreement that was broken by Hitler when he saw it suitable for his war campaign...
Well, it seems I didn't manage to be provocative enough... ;-D

After the Cold War and the collapse of communism the role of NATO has changed. It's also expanding slowly through the Companionship of Peace program and within a few years it will get new membership applicants. And the Russia is strongly against this expansion of NATO, especially in the Baltic states, Poland, Hungary etc. NATO has also been a key player in peace keeping or forcing in former Yugoslavia and in some other places. Sometimes it acts a lot quicker than the UN and what is important here is the fact that it can act independently without any resolutions by the UN. Besides Nato has a real force behind its back because it can take part in combats unlike the UN peace keepers. Nato can act like the 8th king of the Revelation.
So what do you think? If Russia is still the King of the North, this scenario could be true. Could Nato be the disgusting thing of the Rev, not the UN? What's your opinion about this possibility?
