Seriously, this and the whole "inherited sin" & "breadpan" analogy never made any freaking sense to me. Punish everyone for something one person did! Ummm, "perfect in justice"? "Perfect in love"?....wha?

Eve made our periods painful
by rebel8 ini was just remembering this teaching--that a mythical woman ate a piece of fruit 1000s of years ago after a snake told her to, and that's the reason we have menstrual pain.. you see, the bible says eve was cursed for her sin with painful childbirth.
hence we can make up extrapolate that this includes menstruation, which is just part of childbearing.
then we can make up extrapolate that this applies to all females in the entire human race today, because according to a loving god we should all share in her sin as we all have vaginas too.. i remember crying in total agony while i was insulted comforted by having this scripture and explanation read aloud to me, and thinking how much this knowledge drew me closer to jehovah made me realize what a misogynistic wackadoodle cult this was.. thor causing thunder is more plausible than this.. if dubs take midol, does that mean they are scoring jehovah's lesson?.

2014 Event
by enigma1863 ini know its a year away but i wanted to inquire about the hundred year anniversary of 1914. it would be amazing to have a world wide event reguarding all exjws.
i am nowhere near capable of putting this together but i'd like to propose the largest assembly of exjws ever on october 1st 2014. can it be done?
am i the first to bring this up?

I think this is a fantastic idea.
I agree most JWs arnt really thinking about 2014, but thats just because its not being brought to their attention....

I too greatly enjoyed the title of this thread!
Ok, so i feel like once again this article is a big F you to non-anointed rank and file (as has been a growing trend in the publications). Nothing applies to the great crowd, they dont even make up the christian congregation lol. They are little more than groupies of the anointed.
And even those partaking are probably not really anointed (FINAL sealing?).
Why doesnt the GB just come out and just say that 'really only the 8 GB are the only ones god cares about, are anointed, considered his witnesses, and will be saved. Everyone else dies at armageddon' and just be done with it.
