  GodBeliever, you pick and choose whatever you want.

  Why not add an idea or two from Herbert W. Armstrong or L. Ron Hubbard to your platypus theology?

  ...and if you "don't want to offend anyone," then you are the Cowardly Lion of Christianity. Boo!

  Of course he did.

  The poor boy lived 2,000 years ago. Only 100 years ago, modern "learned" men believed the same thing.

  Jesus was as much a victim of his culture as those "learned" men were.

  When did WT lose the spirit?

  by Smiles in

  at what time would you say that the watch tower schema lost the spirit?.

  like the ancient nation of israel which struggled maintaining divine blessing due to a long series of grave errors that eventually culminated in definitive loss... how and when did watch tower lose the spirit?.

  can we pinpoint a time or event?.

  I don't think they've lost the spirit. They may have run a bit low, but we have video of Tightpants Tony stocking up at a liquor store in New Jersey.

  They are FILLED with the "spirit"," as was "The Judge" before them!

  I LOVED working at the assemblies back in the 1960s! (Yes, we could do that back then - volunteering for the various food services (from meat-cutting to cooking to serving to cleaup) In short order I figured out that the PRIMO - ABSOLUTE BEST - volunteer position was NIGHT WATCHMAN. Why? Because you had to be awake ALL NIGHT, which meant you slept during the assembly sessions.

  I lived in New York City, and one year - might have been 1977 - our district or regional assembly was in Washington D. C. in a sports arena that was about six city blocks from the White House. It was summer. It was hot. It was humid. We (night crew) were not given access to the showers in the arena until 3 hot humid days had gone by and all of us profusely sweating young men smelled like excellent cave-aged French cheeses! We were RIPE! Our loving daytime Brothers & Sisters would stare at us when we passed because our aromas were intense! When the assembly elders finally got permission from the arena managers for us to use a shower facilities, I took my "inner garments" and threw them in the garbage!

  I avoided most of that assembly, AND I was admired as "spiritual" for being willing to volunteer to advance Kingdom interests! What a laugh!

  entities, like the gb don't exist.

  people do.

  In occultism there is the idea of a "group entity" made of the combined wills of the individual group members.

  The idea is baseless baloney, but I'd thought I'd drop it on the floor to see who steps in it.
