  I dont know if it was said, among the other completely obvious problems that we all ignored there is one more.

  What ever water was in the "atmosphere" would raise atmospheric pressure.

  i.e. if there were say 100 ft of rainwater to cover the earth over our heads, the atmospheric pressure would be the same as it would be 100 ft under the sea.

  Creatures above the sea are built to take 15psi, not any more.

  I would happily exchange him for for a sack of potatoes.

  He will go down as one of the worst leaders in world history.

  Trumps dad was a general contractor.

  Are you insane? My plumber is a general contractor.

  This sounds very familiar. Even the wording.

  Did they reprint this from a WT fro 7 or 8 years ago?

  P.S.
  

  para 17. "Hard to understand things "

  Gee I remember when we would go door to door and tell people that the bible was easy to understand. That you just needed to read it in context and how it agrees with itself, and that anyone if they are sincere can come to the right conclusion.

  Guess that does not work for the GB (at least for the last 10 years I think).
  Now the bible is a mystery only they can explain.
  Doesn't sound like other religions, does it :)

  Such as with the "overlapping" bandage of a fix on the Generation doctrine. (How effing ridiculous is that?!?!?!?)

  That was the sign that They Have No Idea Whats Going On, and are worried.

  Funny enough, I gave the concluding talk at the District introducing the Overlapping.
  I tried for weeks to make sense of it and couldn't.
  BUT! I am an elder in a congo spitting distance from Headquarters who was chosen to give the concluding talk (something I have never seen), I engaged cognitive dissidence in high gear.

  Now if they came up with the Overlapping in 1979, they could say, see jehober is guiding us.
  But when you fix a problem after the fact, you know all they are doing is making it up.

  Iriddle80 - I have wondered about the GB a long time.

  I think when it comes down to it - they are Victims of Victims.

  That does not excuse anything of course.

  I also think the are REALLY grasping at straws right know trying to figure out WTF is going on since every expectation and prediction has NOT happened.

  Some are acting as if "working hard to keep people in" is something new? And that it has to do with money? And Shunning, like it's a new strategy?

  None of this is new, and has nothing to do with financial issues.

  Remember, this is not an org that started as a scheme to make money (a la L. Ron. Hubbard).
  There were many sincere people who thought 100% this was the truth.

  Yes if DFing ended, it would slowly end the cult as we know it.

  If field service was not required, it would slowly end the cult as we know it.

  If meeting attendance was not so heavily required, it would slowly end the cult as we know it.

  theocracy hypocrisy weekly # 2 -- buying and selling with babylon

  merriam-webster dictionary's definition of "theocracy": government of a state by immediate divine guidance or by officials who are regarded as divinely guided .

  why does the watchtower society even need to buy buildings from babylon?

  So Fractions? They are ok?
  Really?
  
  The only way to use blood that has been outside the body is to pour it on the ground.

  So where did those blood fractions come from WT?

  Didn't they all come from MISUSED blood!
  
  HYPOCRITES!

  WOW so hard to figure that out JW land.

  Obedience Tested Over Blood

  11. What is the basis for the Christian position on use of blood?

  11 God’s law on blood certainly is not new or unclear. Through our common forefather Noah, Jehovah commanded all mankind: “Flesh with its soul​—its blood—​you must not eat.” (Genesis 9:4) The sacredness of blood, representing life from God, was stressed in the Mosaic Law. Blood could be used on the altar, but otherwise it was to be ‘poured out on the ground as water.’ (Leviticus 17:11-14; Deuteronomy 12:23-25)
