Dr Grande put out a video this week about the Sandra Melgar case.

I find his videos interesting. I had not heard of this case, and was a bit surprised when he mentioned that she was a Witness.

I have also read that the concept of the Devil came from Zoroastrian beliefs which the Jews picked up when they were in exile.

Why Jehovah`s Witnesses are wrong emphasising the name Jehovah.
by smiddy3 inhi friends, feel free to correct me where i`m wrong with this post.after all it`s just my observation of jw`s and the bible.. in the beginning of gods dealings with adam it was on a personal level , god to man so to speak.. god then dealt with humans via the patriarchs , then with the levi priesthood ,then judges ,( and a woman was a judge ) then kings ,somewhere in between all of this prophets played a major part ,and then came jesus christ the messiah.. and to my knowledge god has not validated a successor to him with any evidence i`ve seen .. jehovah`s witnesses claim to be christians but have with no new testament backing usurped jesus with jehovah.. this period of time ,until god says otherwise ,christians are to give honour and glory to none other than jesus christ .. that is the name that is above any other name until god says otherwise.
phil.2:9-11. not the name jehovah .the bible never says anything about a kingdom of jehovah ,the coming kingdom is the kingdom of jesus christ with his associate 144,000 earthly subjects.. this is just my understanding of what the bible actually says .. whether i believe it or not is another matter..

Somewhere in Acts it says the name of 'Christian' was chosen in Divine providence. The JWs have for the most part lost sight of Jesus and the basic identity of Christianity.

Worth a mention is that the 'California' mentioned is the name of a town in Missouri rather than a state name.
I find it a little curious the newspaper would bother to mention JF Rutherford, as if to slight the family name. Newspapers back then often had a political party affiliation. Maybe this one was was from the opposing party. I seem to recall that Rutherford, though not elected as a judge, had run for office a time or two in some capacity at the county level.

Noah's Ark : A structure that could never have been built in Noah's day
by RULES & REGULATIONS inthe ark encounter located in kentucky (opened in 2016) is a large representation of noah's ark based on the genesis flood narrative contained in the bible.
it is 510 feet (155 m) long, 85 feet (26 m) wide, and 51 feet (16 m) high.. .
genesis 6: 14 so make yourself an ark of cypress[c] wood; make rooms in it and coat it with pitch inside and out.

I also had to report illegal activity to the Inspection Service. In this case the managers were involved as well. They were fired eventually, but it took two years. I quit there largely because of retaliation.

I worked for the USPS for over 15 years, and I can say from personal observation that it is poorly managed. Some good people, but a lot of bad ones. They are doing a pretty good job of destroying themselves, without the added assistance of politics.

Baptism during Covid - pool must tough the ground?
by jwfacts inthe july 2020 announcements mentions that baptism can be held in an “inflatable pool” as long as it touches the ground.
the pool must not be “on a terrace, flat roof, balcony, etc.”.
has anyone ever noticed that as a requirement?.

Must surely be for safety. Water is really heavy, and if anyone put a pool on a terrace or balcony it would exceed the weight designed for.

The “simplified” congregation donation arrangement
by slimboyfat indid anyone else experience a nostalgic throwback to the 1990s when the latest watchtower announcements presented their demand for increased donations from congregations as a “simplified” arrangement?
5. adjustment to resolved congregation donations: in the past, the congregation was presented with multiple resolutions to donate funds to the branch office in support of vari- ous activities cared for by the organization.
this arrangement has been simplified.
