Every factual statement made by the W.T ends up requiring reading more in to it than the original interpretation. As for your O.P " possible new light on 70 years" I would say highly probable. Why waste our time with these manipulators, when we know they know it's bullshit....just walk away.

Possible new light on 70 years
by Saltheart Foamfollower ini may be reading more into this than is there, but here is what i've spotted from today's watchtower study (oct 2016 study edition) page 14 paragraph 8. concerning daniel it says "thus, some 70 years after his arrival in babylon, he was still known by his hebrew name" referring to an event in the first year of darius ie 539/538 bce.
however, according to the wtbts chronology daniel went to babylon in 617 bce - more like 80 years earlier.
could this (finally) be a step towards ditching 607?.

I have come a long way since my first post on this board, right or wrong questions on right or wrong now bore me. Anyway outside of life and its complicated bullshit,I think it nice if we can be enthusiastic about something, about anything ...Cofty has his metal detecting, I occasionally have my art. Yes I have my football, my son, my wife but we all need something that is OUR ALONE TIME, a hobby, what's yours?
p.s I thank the internet for giving me this opportunity to present my Art .Even if only on this thread.I really appreciate that gift, because it's my art, and I think it wonderful that I was given that opportunity.
Anyone growing up before the internet will understand the above comment, and thanks to modern technology here is your opportunity.

FadeToBlack good question. I saw a film in which an artist painted a portrait of a beautiful woman, he then hid the painting behind a brick wall.
As for why I paint,or write on this board I think all forms of physical expression are a weary pain . For example to write on this board, we have gone through negative experiences which is why we are here.Why do we post? I mean It's putting ourself out their risking negative feed back, but we do it? I call that Art.But that hasn't answered the why? I think real artists have no choice, they create all the time, as for people like me, I realize my limits, and it's just a hobby as opposed to watchingT.V
Of course it's also nice if people like my posts, my art, me as a person, but It's not so important, you have to be pretty thick skinned when you leave the witnesses.
I think the bottle flip challenge is art, I mean first you flip a bottle and with practice it finally lands wrong side up, then with further practice you get better and think up individual new challenges and ways to flip a bottle.
Has anyone seen Dude perfect on you tube?I think those guys are artists.

DeseriousofChange, point taken.
I visited the Tate Mdern on the day it opened, a section that you walked through between galleries, had a decorators ladder, paint tins and protection covers on the floor. I noticed most didn't realize it was part of the art. I also loved how the Chinese were obsessed by Deshampes urinal.
A clue as to who painted the second one, I like circles I think they have a calming effect and force the viewer in to a painting.
p.s part time artists please be courageous and submit your Art.

Thanks for your comments and observations OrphanCrow. What you perceived as the frames on the second painting are my curtains, therefore they are not from a gallery nor done by a world famous artist.
:- However was the second one done by my 11 year old son or me?
p.s OrphanCrow your work belongs in a gallery hence the like.

As this thread has received zero interest, let me ask a question,
Q) Who did the above masterpieces myself or a world famous artist?

What is life?
by punkofnice inwhen i was a jobo, i used to thing of 'life without end at laaaasssssst'.. having been on my journey out of the wbt$ slaveholdery, i have found that something that makes sense is that life doesn't owe us a meaning.
psalms 146:4 was actually bangeth on the money-eth 'his breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish.'.
although i am now very atheist, and really do not even think there is the remotest possibility of a god, that bible passage is correct.

My respect stand up comedy is putting yourself on the line. My favorite stand up comedian was Bill Hicks. I love Tommy Cooper does he qualify as " Stand up?" Dustin Hoffman was brilliant as Lenny Bruce a must see movie.

Picasso said art is " the spider on the wall" and to me this means their is no such thing as bad art. Art is in the eye of the beholder. Any part time artists want to display their " spider on the wall?
