had lunch with some friends during today's waste of time convention.
they spoke of the rumor floating around that the jws will move away from these big regional conventions and have them at assembly halls and tie them in to kingdom halls.. they seemed to believe it was a pretty reliable source.. i think it would be too good to be true but who knows?.
anyone else heard this rumor?.
Just found out that they are going to show the videos of convention locally at our hall for those that can't attend.
That's a first!
How about this for a possibility? They still have a handful of large conventions but they will be more invite only types like the international ones.
Those of us unworthy get to watch it on video at our hall or whatever.
the nephilim account in genesis is utterly ridiculous when you consider that angels are sex-less beings and would therefore lack sex-drive and romantic attraction.
think of how difficult it is for humans with a sex drive to be sexually attracted to animals.
now take away that sex drive and it becomes literally impossible.
Uhhhh cuz human women are sexy.
Duh!
i did!
even when i was in junior high school i would go to the library and look for anything that was about charles taze russell or millenial dawn or jehovah's witnesses..... maybe i was an "apostate " in the making..
Funny you ask.
I am sneaking this during a meeting đŸ˜†

Well I wasn't able to get a number baptized as I was able to talk my wife into skipping out during last talk targeted at kids which we ain't :-)
It looked like 20 to 30 though. Quite a few.

Pretty good crowd.
Nothing​ too cultish yet.
Only mentioned Jesus once so far. During talk about protecting kids. Used it as an example how Jah protected his kid Jesus.
Baptism talk is just starting.
I'll check in again this afternoon and report on baptism numbers.

many years ago i met an older man in the ministry who told me he was a baptized jw years ago, when i met him he was an alchoholic and had girlfriends, i told the elders, two came by and they told me to treat him as a regular worldly guy, my question is (i know this is a fuzzy area) about how much time needs to go by before someone (me for instance) would be looked upon as a non jw worldly person?.
:0).
I sometimes wonder if it has to do with when you were baptized. Pre or post 1985 when they changed it to a vow to follow the organization.
