In the last congregation that I attended, they had the JW year book for every year on the shelf, except for the year they pandered to Adolf Hitler. I think it was 1931 or 1932. It struck me as odd, because I was looking just for that year so I could read the comments for myself.

How many letters do you thing the WTS has received with questions about the WTS association with the United Nations NGO organization?
How many JWs have left the orgnization or have been stumbled by the WTS association with the UN?
If there was ever a QFR that should be answered, this would be it!
Yet, nothing! It's a sham for sure.

You may not want to plan on any airplane flights that day. It could be quite dangerous with all those christains rapturing up without a flight plan!

Just wait a bit, and it will be on Wikileaks.
It would just be used as a tool to insight more enemies of the USA, and you will still have conspiracy groups who won't believe it's real.

One can't help but wonder what "absurd tales of magic and sorcery presented as truth" the book of Tobias contains.
Tobias contains 14 small chapters, that mostly covers the family history. The phrase 'praise god' or 'praise the lord' occurs many times in this book, so what is it exactly that the G.B. of JWs would have a problem with this book?
Tobias needed a wife, but the law said he must marry within his family, or die.
Tobias cousin wanted to hook Tobias up with his sister Sara. Sara was the only legal (family) female Tobias can marry without breaking gods law and getting put to death. She was the only available woman that met god's standard..... But Tobias cousin Sara, was already married 7 times before, and all 7 husbands were killed by an incubus, in the bed room, because the demon wanted to have sex with Tobias cousin sara.
Tobias was purplexed and afraid to marry Sara because of the previous 7 dead husband that ALL died in the marrage chamber.
Tobias catches a big ass fish, so big it could eat him. The angel Raphael appears to Tobias and tells him to cut out the heart and gall and save it, he then then ate the rest of the fish.
The angel Raphael tells Tobias that it is okay to marry Sara and that if he smokes the heart in gall in their bed room then it will drive the incubus away.
Tobias does what Rapheal tells him and it works. They are blessed have many children and live a long life together.
-------------------------
Seems like good old testament material to me!
I can see why the governing body of JWs would have a problem with the superstition and absurd tales of magic and sorcery presented as truth.
Everyone knows that the demons quit having sex with women after the flood of Noah's day! Duh!
Edited to add: The fish gall can also be used to cure the blind.

If you are considering a diamond, buy used. Diamonds don't wear out! If you buy used you can save 80% over retail.
Meet at a public Jewlers, most will let you look at it under a scope and will verify that it is in fact real or fake. Have the used diamond re-mounted in a new custom built *new* ring.
The retail markup on diamonds is just crazy. Don't do it. If you are not familiar with how diamonds are graded by color, clarity and size, you will want to do some research on that first.
My last used diamond purchase was $900 for a 1.66 ct princes cut stone that had a very small chip on the top edge. Had the stone recut down to 1.51 ct for $300 and mounted in a new ring. It apprased for $13,000 but I only have $2,000 investment.
This approach does require a time factor that you may not have.
