In 2034 or afterwards, "In the past Jehovah's Witnesses have been presumptuous in trying to predict dates and generations or overlapping generations. The governing body has ALWAYS advised that nobody knows the day nor the hour. It's the Jehovah's Witnesses who didn't heed the governing body who are to blame for not having saved for retirement, nor any of the myrid of other problems they now have. Let us be thankful we have the governing body to advise us and next time to listen to them!"

No More After 34 (2034)
by blondie inmy husband and i were discussing the rally cry shortly before 1975, stay alive in 75 (1975), some here believe that the end might come in 2034 (some tongue in cheek) counting 120 years from 1914 the same internal between when god supposedly pronounced judgment on the people on the earth before the flood would come.. so it could be, no more after 34. i thought it was good and funny at the same time..

"Do you know as a Jehovah's Witness I could spend a night at any JW's home without either of us being suspicious of each other?"

BRANCH OVERSEER : "Apostates are GOOD people !"
by Aleph inthis is quite incredible.during his talk, the branch overseer, made a special talk dedicated to the apostates.. he clearly emphasis his point, "apostates used to be between us, really you can talk with apostates, those people are good, of course their point of vue is different than ours now but they are mostly very nice poeple, and you shouldn't be afraid to talk with them.
"though as usual, the reaction of the brothers was quite the same, impassive, i was very surprise by this statement.i cannot assume if this is just a one man step ahead towards the apostates, or really a change in their policies, this came from the mouth of a branch overseer.of course, for obvious reason, i won't give the name of the brother, which is famous, but only here in an central european country.i would have expected him to quote more scriptures, but he didn't, he could have use the one for jesus himself :"you should love your enemies", as apostates were really the "enemies" for the wtbs for such a long time, maybe now that the king of the north is awaken, apostates are not so bad after all ?
just wondering....

Spread of Islam doesn't stop at Christians and when they take over areas, all athiest rights go away. Better not have sex outside of marriage, be gay, drink, dress comfortably, etc, etc. When will moron liberals realize that? While being tossed from a balcony?

Finding lost relatives or ancestry interest after leaving??

on one side of my family, back to my grandparents, they cut ties with all the non jw family when they converted.

On one side of my family, back to my grandparents, they cut ties with all the non jw family when they converted. I've found some through facebook, but only those I knew about. I thought all my relatives would be forever lost until....
I recently did a DNA thing. I was shocked in addition to learning more about my ancestry, it matched me up with others who did it who were cousins of mine. I was a little suspicious of these were really legit or not. One of which our ties or split went back to the 1800's, the tree merged and they already had details going back to the late 1600's of our common grandparent of the 1800's. When I was a kid, my grandparents told me of a book that had that history going to the 1600's that they burned thinking it was possessed, so I thought it was forever lost. So happy to have found a relative who shares that history and had all the information. Will probably meet them and they connected with relatives in overseas and visit each year.
I first did it on the myheritage site, but since ancestry is bigger, I'm doing it on that site too. The ancestry results should be practically identical but DNA matching to relatives only happens if others did it for the same company, that's why I'm doing it on more than just 1. I suppose when I was a JW I didn't care to find out too much, assuming I would in the 'new world'. But this dna stuff is cool to really discover your ancestry and find long lost relatives.
If you've been wanting to do it, but waiting for a deal vs their general $99 cost, until 4/25 you can get $30 off so it's only $69, and after 4/25 it's $15 off if use referral code http://refer.dna.ancestry.com/s/jason0423 I'll get a whooping $10 amazon card if you do it. I don't promote stuff to make pocket change. I know many who became JW's have lost their relatives, and this is a way to find lost relatives and your history if it interests you.
Has anyone else done these and any interesting stories or finding relatives from it?

Sri Lanka's state minister of defence said [today] that the Easter Sunday bombings were in retaliation for the New Zealand terror attack on two mosques in Christchurch, as reported in the Financial Times.
Utter drivel and BS. I guess all of these easter day bombings in the past were just preemptive revenge attacks?

How in the world do extremist Muslims think acts like this is going to benefit their cause ?
shouldn`t common sense tell them that these very acts of atrocity are eventually going to be their very undoing ?
And that world opinion will eventually not tolerate this anymore ?I agree. No more catch and release. (unless castration). Remove from the gene pool.

Japan has taken notice. That's why she won't accept Muslim refugees.
Same with Poland and Hungary. No muslims, no terrorism. EU have been pissed they were refusing to take their share. Hopefully idiot lefties will eventually notice the reason why France, Germany, UK have problems and Poland and Hungary don't.
