Circulation figures for Bible versions - how does the NWT compare?
by slimboyfat inthey mentioned at the annual meeting that over 200 million copies of the nwt have been produced.
i wondered how that compares with other versions, but it seems circulation figures are not terribly easy to come by.
after the king james version, which has probably been printed billions of times, i guess the niv is probably the most popular version.

All hail the Governing Body and God's Corporation
by mindnumbed inan annual meeting is a legal requirement for a corporation.. the watchtower annual meeting (agm) is a legal event that has become the biggest spiritual event of the year, overshadowing what is supposed to be the most important event, the memorial of christ's death.. praise be to the governing buddies who sit on the throne of christ..

... Um, no actually, we are not being (or have not been) judged yet. Not 'til the great tribulation. Go back and read Jehovahs new teaching in the July 15th WT.. -

Theists, why does God allow suffering..
by The Quiet One in..specifically, the suffering of animals.
you can talk about free will/sin/people choosing to not listen to god etc to explain human suffering being allowed.. but how can you love a god that allows animals, that haven't sinned or chosen to not have anything to do with god, to have their short lives ended in often long, drawn out, painful ways.
i could list stories i've read that would probably make you feel ill, but i'm not looking to shock anyone or start an emotional debate.

Prologos-- In response to post 1514.. How can an animal avoid getting cancer or developing painful growths/tumours? And a 'success-based universe'?? So all of the suffering we see and experience is a game, or a competition? What a loving God...

by The Quiet One in' i've been thinking about these "mentally diseased" ones for a little while now and i've noticed how different they are from other disfellowshipped ones.
in none of these programs or any social or media outlets do they present the whole picture.
it's never explained how a disfellowshipped one can return to jehovah and his organization.

From Jwtalk.net:
' I've been thinking about these "mentally diseased" ones for a little while now and I've noticed how different they are from other disfellowshipped ones. In none of these programs or any social or media outlets do they present the whole picture. It's never explained how a disfellowshipped one can return to Jehovah and his organization. It's never commented on how a disfellowshipped father and husband still has regular family association with his believing wife and minor children.Never present the whole picture. Always just the one side that will distort and inflame the uninformed in opposition to you. '................' As much as I hate apostates their increased activity excites me, it means things are heating up, Satan is stirring them up, just as we are speeding up the work, one final push before the end, Satan is going not going down without a fight he intends to to out 'all guns blazing' as the expression goes. This is another last ditch effort of Satan to prevent the glorious truth about God and Christ from reaching people but no matter how much reproach they bring on Jehovah's name and his organisation true sheeplike ones will be reached, God's Spirit is stronger than Satan.Even if an apostate wont admit it Im sure there is a fear buried deep down that he might be wrong. (Though we know they are)Imagine how apostates will feel when they see babylon destroyed, they will be gnashing their teeth as it were. Even those who dont know whats going on will be faint out of fear, think how an apostate will feel, not only will they know whats going on, they will know exactly which side of the fence they fall on! And then when Jehovah finally rewards them at Armageddon for their part in bringing down his name, what a glorious and fear inspiring day!

Excuse me, but the posts I quoted in the OP are from the thread on Jwtalk, sorry if that was unclear. Maybe check the link next time before jumping in?
Moving on...
