This is a very sad magazine. Those that allowed family members to die have a burden that will remain for their whole lives.
I cannot imagine the turmoil of letting a loved one die, and the eventually learning TTATT. That burden would be far too great for me.
i took these pictures over a month ago.
i had not realized that they were really pushing their site.
this was at our farmers market, although they were not officially in the market area but off the side on the sidewalk.. .
What a great way to get service time. Sit at a booth and play candy crush on our cellphone.
i have always wondered how jws believe about "post-armaggeddon" earth.
question#1 how will jws survivors bury all of the dead bodies.
with about 4 billion people on earth today how can 8 million jw(1/2 of them children and babies) bury all of those dead bodies?
One thing I never understood about living forever is how we will maintain our teeth. They crack, wear down, and get cavities. Teeth were never designed for eternity. And unlike other creatures, we don't get a new set every few years.
This will especially be a problem if maintain a diet of fruits. Too much sugar.
Will we have heavenly guidance on tooth maintenance? What if we refuse to brush our teeth? What is our punishment? Will teeth be transformed every few years? If that happens will we engage in teeth-risky behavior?
This has been a question of mine for a long time, I glad we have a forum to answer such questions.
What a wonderful site with answers to everything.
it will never happen.
because that will definitely be the "final nail" in their coffin.
jws will not stand for it any longer.
The numbers suggest that they have to make the change. They may not want to, but I think they have to unless they want to condemn two thousand years of years of the faithful.
i was just thinking about how humans being imperfect and satan's influence was the root of everything bad that anyone has ever done.
well i know that apparently everyone is vulnerable which got me thinking about what "bad" things people have done while they were a jw.
i'll start it off.
My family (mother aunts and grandmother) - all diehard jws - would always have turkey for Thanksgiving. Perhaps they were rebelling and I was not even aware.
Good for them and yummy turkey.
against my better judgement, i've decided to share the following as a response to guy pierce passing and the announcement of the elimination of district overseers later this year.. late in january (2014) i got an email from one of my contacts (a fader) who served at bethel for several years, but is no longer at wt hq.
he still has a lot of close contacts within the service department and in other departments at patterson and knows people in all of the ny offices.
i kept this email set aside on a flash drive and haven't shared it with anyone - figuring i'd publish an article about it later this year when i had more time to do it right.
I have always suspected that the words anointed and appointed would be co-mingled. This confirms my deep-down suspicions.
Great post and comments. I feel like I am on the inside track to the "stairway to heaven."

I went to a strip joint as an elder. But to justify my action, I was on my way out.
if jehovah resurrects the inhabitants of sodom & gomorrah, to give them a fair chance to life.. he truly is love!.
please see the wt and related articles in the resurrection of sodom & gomorrah : 1879 resurrection confirmed : = yes "let me give you an illustration that will be forcible: the sodomites.
surely if we find their restitution mentioned you will be satisfied.
So what is the current status of those fun loving folks from Sod′om and Go·mor′rah?
Can every individual be judged based upon where they lieved? I'll bet there were some pretty good people in Sod′om and Go·mor′rah.
But there were also some fun loving folks that I would like to ask a few questions. At this point I hope we pass somewhere in the afterlife so I can conduct a phenomenological study of their fun loving ways.
i believe the renaming of the district conventions has already been officially announced, correct?
how about this latest change regarding dos?.
So, we heard it first? Right? Just checking.
That fact really has to make someone pissed off.
i have a non jw friend that knows about jws only bc i related toher my experience leaving this abusive cult.
anyhoo, she went to starbucks yesterday and there was an older man on his laptop.
she sat next to him while she did work on her tablet.
I am confused, how did he get her email account?
