Think it was in 1985 at the Astrodome in Houston, where they had 2 large accidents on the stage for all to witness. There was someone riding a fork truck thru the gate to the field which was a steep incline and the fork truck flipped over and the crowd gasped in horror. I heard he broke his leg. On the last day they were taking down the 3 level plywood wall that separated the stage and the food prep area and it fell on 2 workers that were underneath them. They were removed by stretchers . Cant forget how cold they kept the enclosed stadium had to bring blankets even though it was over 100 degrees outside. Most people around us would sleep cause it was so boring and cool comfortable in the upper decks. you couldn't see the stage cause it was so far away and had no large tvs like they have today. 50,000 plus were there, but never saw the 2 J,s who were suppose to be there, Joe Hoover and Jose. They always were missing in action even though their names were worn out over the echoing loud speakers.

If all GB members died at once?
by Jofi_Wofo ini don't suppose anyone knows for sure, but do we have any kind of hint of what would happen if all of the governing body members died at the same time- such that nobody was left to appoint successors?
in lieu of any solid evidence, i'd also be interested in hearing some speculation based on what we already know about the organizational structure.. it would certainly throw a wrench in either the teaching that the faithful and discreet slave will survive into the great tribulation and/or the implied doctrine that the the gb succession arrangement is justifiable biblically.
let me firmly disclaim any implication that i am encouraging violence or wishing death on the governing body.

In the year 2525, if man is still alive...at the least all the GB members will not be alive and the cult will have crumbled in the heap of false prophets to come and those that have gone.

''Deliverance at Hand''. Now 15 years on &....
by Beth Sarim in....and still no big 'a'.
armageddon.. it was 15 years ago dubland was in lala dream-like almost trance-like state hanging on the notion the big 'a' was imminent.. it was ironic.
ironic at that time was when.... i was starting my long waking-up process.

Also I think in 1986 a lot of religious leaders declared that this was the year of peace and security, and the local uber JW,s started saying the end is so close now. ha ha jokes on them

Increase = Jehovah’s Blessing?
by Reservations ini’ve been trying to find any recent quotes that say the increase in witnesses every year is evidence of jehovah’s blessing on the organisation.. i know the ready made excuse if there is a decrease is “love of greater number will cool off”….
after splanes talk i can feel a significant decrease coming..

You could say that the witnesses are increasing in size, maybe belt size from not getting out as much.

Please how do someone become an Anointed Christian in Watchtower Organization.

I suggest just go to another organization,say seek out a Baptist missionary who go to the Congo ever since Lottie Moon went 100 years ago. They will baptize you with just a simple repent and turnaround and wallah! You are a part of the annointed! Forget what the Washtower has taught you, it’s a mans religion, which will keep you in circles chasing a resurrection that will not happen in this generation or the next.

The stupid dems are tying to push BS in the infrastructure bill, who would have thought it.
by mickbobcat inso i was listing to the news and in the infrastructure bill there is a part that will tax you on how many miles you drive.
this is above the state and federal gas tax.
so now they will control and monitor your millage and tax you on it.

Dems logic is they are not getting any tax from electric cars and need to find a way to tax them too. Maybe they should look into charging an entrance fee to the federal park they created during the Obama administration on the Moon.

Statements or Comments Made By JWs That Were WRONG
by minimus injehovah’s witnesses claim to be the only religion that has the truth.
they claim to be representing god himself.
can you think of anything that you could use to prove that the witnesses do not have the truth?.

The WatchTower Society teaches Jehovah's Witnesses that if a given person is "not entitled" to be told the truth, JWs can tell that person a pure falsehood. Or, the JW can tell a half-truth which gives the person a false impression. In either case, the Jehovah's Witness does so with a clear conscience. Theocratic war doctrine is so clearly wrong .

Splane's "Apostate" talk transcript
by FFGhost infor any who can't (like me) muster the masochism necessary to sit through an 18-or-so hour commentary on a 30 minute talk from a certain famous/infamous commentator, here is a link to a transcript from splane's saturday afternoon "apostate" talk:.

there are many topics worthy of consideration, but this particular section really stood out to me:.

Talk about the kettle calling the pot black, I now look at the WTS as the ones who are apostate and all those on the outside as telling the truth. Those 8 buffoons have no clue what they are saying or doing. Whatever the WTS says is truthfully a lie.
