the "Unforgivable Sin" ? What is it ?
If you were to ask Tony Morris, he'd probably say it was finishing off the last of the McCallan without offering to buy him some more.

Whenever Morris talks about his hoped-future future wherein he gets to smash and kill as a heavenly being, there is a gleam in his eye and a lilt to his voice that is really disturbing. He clearly anticipates with glee the opportunity to kill his perceived enemies.
What's also disturbing is that he served as a medic in the Vietnam war. He has seen first-hand the effects of warfare on human bodies, and rather than being horrified he seems to relish the idea of being able to inflict such carnage himself.
I believe the medical term for someone like that is "one sick f*ck".

No argument there.
Most JWs would be in agreement that they are not spirit-begotten sons of God. They have no problem with that.
If I weren't so lazy, I'd look up more modern quotes regarding how, after the 1000 year fruit-fest, even non-spirit-begotten earthly people would be "adopted" into God's family. But, of course, that is supposed to be 1000+ year into the future.

It’s not something that JW’s will tell you straightforwardly. Most don’t even know.
Ding, ding, ding! We have a winner.
Most JWs don't know, and even fewer care.
Doctrine doesn't matter to well over 90% of JWs.
All that matters is, if I "listen and obey", I'll be "blessed" with a new world mansion, a pet panda, and I'll get to see dear dead grandma again.
Oh! And fruit. Lots & lots of fruit. Piled high on picnic tables. Grapes the size of apples! Apples the size of watermelons! Watermelons the size of....really big watermelons!
Hope you like fruit.

Even if you find someone who has a copy of that 75 year old magazine, if you were to use it to try to convince a JW that it was some sort of "hidden teachings", the JW would just roll his eyes and tell you you were using "old light".
Here is a quote from a 2020 Watchtower article that the good, obedient JW would point you to:
https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/d/r1/lp-e/2020281#h=1:0-28:379
We can rightly call Jehovah “Father”—he is the Source of our life.

Makes me wonder if Amazon delivers to Bethel and if so do they ship booze in a plain unmarked box?
I'd be willing to bet there is at least one still somewhere on the grounds of Wallkill and / or Patterson, quite possibly even Warwick.

I like how it's written on notebook paper. Binder wholes and all - lends an air of seriousness to her message.
Seems like Lucia is probably 11 years old, and on the next sheet of her notebook she wrote her book report on "The Outsiders".

Drinking during Prohibition
by Davros induring a recent conversation i had with someone, a question came up that i really don't know the answer to.
did jw's still drink during prohibition in the us during the 1920's until it's repeal in 1933?
was alcoholic beverages considered forbidden and possibly subject to disfellowshipping?.

I wonder if they will forbid ingesting legal cannabis for recreational use.
The latest elders' manual (12:15.4) specifically mentions "...a practice of abusing addictive drugs, including betel nut, marijuana, and tobacco" as a disfellowshipping level offense.
It then goes on to mention that an exception may be granted for cases where a "medical doctor authorizes and/or prescribes marijuana for a medical problem".
I can see a lucrative business opportunity for an unscrupulous MD to "authorize" the use of "medical marijuana" for JWs. Requests from kids of wealthy elders alone would be enough to allow him to buy a 50 meter yacht and dock it in Monaco.
