  i know this is true every week, and i say it all the time, and i know blondie will be doing her review later, but.... today's watchtower was bat-shit crazy!.

  i knew it was going to be a bizzare one just reading it, but the comments at the meeting took it even further.

  i can't post all the crazy ones, but in summary what they were saying was:.

  "If it had been done Jehovah's way, we would have black, white or yellow popping up here and there, not in great masses like they are at the moment. The reason they are in great masses at the moment is because they've separated themselves out and so there's one kind of feature grown up in different races. But otherwise, it would have been a mixture and that's the way it should be."

  'Scuse me? How do you know that? Where's the scripture that supports your conclusion? Mercy sakes alive, I think we have us an apostate!

  Given all of their doctrinal flip-flopping I'd have to conclude that their holy spirit dispenser has a loose connection somewhere.

  What about that one simple trick to lose belly fat? I suspect it has something to do with KFC and beer.

  If you belong to a religion other than JWs you should use your powers of independent thinking to leave that religion and join JWs. Then, since you have found The Truth you should turn off the independent thinking and just accept what they feed you.

  noah died in 1918 b.c.e (950 yrs.

  abraham died 1801 b.c.e only 97 years after noah.. gen. 25;8 states he died in a good old age, an old man.

  and full of years.

  Yeah, and Sarah was still a hot chick at 90. Maybe the gravity wasn't as strong back then.

  And the point of this video is??

  here's a few guesses.... the brooklyn waterfront is a convenient place for the society to make their videosgrowing up as a jw when your friends have cellphones and you don't is "kind of rough" and a "kind of sad story"suddenly it's ok for jw youths to "go out" with worldly friends?

  ?you should listen to what your "peers" say, so long as they're jws on a society video.

  anything else is peer pressure.playing by yourself with a frisbee is the preferred sport for young people (no teams or competition involved)young jws don't have a clue how to communicate with the opposite sex via text messages"it's really up to you how you choose to communicate with this wonderful tool that you have"... even though it clearly isn't.the society's video-making department are already running out of ideashttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=se_iuspg_14.

  Who are this kid's "friends" who all had cell phones when he didn't have one? It seems to imply that he was running around with a crowd of "worldly" kids.

  It's one more piece of technology that the GB can't control. It was so much easier back in the old days when CB radios were the big threat to spirituality.
