The story, when seen by the public, is to bring males into the meetings. Where can we find these possibly well endowed widows, lookalikes of the Middleton sisters and Meghan Markle? Most central American widows look more like Merkle.

The history of JW CONSCIENCE put in perspective (Brothers sent to prison: misled?)
by Terry inconscience and war.
clash of certainties.
in 1616, the catholic church was absolutely certain the words of the holy bible were true concerning the planet earth and its place in the universe; especially in regards to this scripture "...the world is firmly established, it cannot be moved.

interesting conclusion, I never connected the Superior position of the father and son with the de facto supremacy of the wt leadership, as it turned out between 1929 and the 60s reversal. and
If your lot was terrible during the Vietnam war, think of the fate of bibel forschers during WW2.

Another Tidbit regarding Acts 15
by peacefulpete inacts 15 has an interesting backstory (and textual history) that has been touched on elsewhere so here i will only say, the purpose of the section, and much of the book, is to re-envision the history of the early days of xtianity.
the deep schisms, (some might say even different origins) are made to appear superficial and inconsequential.
this theme contiues with the choice of two 'prophets' from jerusalem traveling back to antioch to share with paul and barny, named judas (yes another one) and silas.

very tedious to try to reconstruct details after 2000 years, simple fact is,
doctrine was not written exclusively by writers of the first century "Governing Body" only, , why should it be now?

wt doctrine aside, anointing happens at baptism, see: Jesus, Cornelius. Fleegle, Winder are overlappers, "arrived at bethel prior to Franz's departure.
Fleegle, a possible swiss name, from "pflegen" verb, to care for. or fliegen, to fly.

GB members would decrease and somehow be 'raptured' then disappear to heaven,,to take place in their 'bloodthirsty' slaughter.
BS. you are stuck in the old slave class doctrine ( All partakers are the Faithful &D Slave )
May be these 2 New Boys will tackle the wt dilemma: Jesus said the generation [ wt: anointed] would pass away after the end, the now 10 teachers teach that they, as you said, would die, go to heaven at the beginning of the Great Tribulation.
Contradicting the greatest teacher who ever lived is not a good Idea.
How about it, Jeffrey and Gage ?

frankly, I like the expressions on those faces. may they keep their christian innocence. power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely.
They believe they will rule the universe one day. trillions of galaxies. They will have their hands full just with wt's narrowing options ahead. .

Both came to bethel before 1992, the last year of Friedrich Franz. they are overlappers.
on the light side, with names like that will the flight of fancy of the warwick gang reach new hights?
fleegle, or fluegle ( if the boys on Ellis Island spelled it wrong) little Flight in the Wind

Love - the Identifying Mark of Real Christians?
by LostintheFog1999 inthe jws are fond of quoting john 13:35 that love is the identifying mark of the true religion claiming that only they have this love among themselves.
they love each other.. i was reading the gospel of luke today and thought about the words of jesus luke 6:32-35 niv, “if you love those who love you, what credit is that to you?
even sinners love those who love them.

Even the most highly professing member of any 'loving' faith has limits
pun, because thy sense, that the deity too, has set limits. The "Jealous God" is love?
