I`m just happy enough to read peoples comments about it.

Audio of Highlights of the Annual Meeting 2017
by LevelThePlayingField ini wouldn't dare bore you with the whole 3.5 hours of their dogma.
but i have about a half hour of some of the main points.
of course, i made sure tight pants tony was the main part of it, since he's the one that announced the reductions of the wt & awake and no more year book.. also, i have lett saying that jehovah gave jesus immorality instead of immortality.

According to WT prophecy it cannot come any day "soon" Why not ?
1. The king of the North & King of the South need to be identified and they need to be "pushing & shoving each other for World dominance" before-hand.
2".Babylon The great the World Empire of False Religion" has to be turned on by the Eighth World Power eg: the United Nations triggering the "Great Tribulation" that is to precede the battle of Armageddon .
3. These are predictions the WT /JW`s have stated will happen according to their understanding of the prophecy`s of Daniel and Ezekiel ,Jesus etc.in there publications all through the 20th Century.
4. These events need time to develop and play out on the world scene and their is nothing in the world political or religious scene today that indicates any of this is happening at the present time.
5.In the 70`s and 80`s Jehovah`s Witnesses declared " Babylon The Great Has Fallen God`s Kingdom Rules"
however in this year of October 2017 nothing is further from the truth .Religion is thriving ,whether it be Christian ,Muslim ,Eastern, or otherwise , it goes in cycles some decline for a while while others prosper and vice versa.
6. The trouble with JW`s is they do not think with their "God " given brain they lazily let others do their thinking for them.

You can always use Theocratic Warfare strategy back on those that ask that question .
Your answer : Of course I believe the end will come
.{ In your mind you are answering truthfully as to when your own life ends ,you don`t know when just the fact that it will end one day}

So the bottom line TweetieBird is that the GB/WTB&TS is using the AGM to solicit more money from the gullible JW`s.

Help with acceptance for JW family still in
YOU just need to accept that they are happy being JW`s in their delusional state of mind and get your head around the fact that they never want to know or believe they are in a false /cult religion.
You getting frustrated because of their continued trying to influence /convert you to their way of thinking is not doing your health any good
Maybe you need to step back and minimize your association with your family and take a low key and just see how much they want to keep in touch with you once they know for sure you dont want to be a part of the JW religion.
You are not going to change their thinking however they believe they can change yours.
Once you make it plain to them they cant you will be dropped like a hot potato.
Don`t put yourself through such trauma go and find new friends and acquaintances.
What sort of family will only truly accept you on their terms only.

I fail to understand why a country ,any country has different laws in different states .Surely it makes more sense for a nation to have uniform laws all over the country ?
I believe their are currently 630,000 machine guns registered with the Bureau of Alcohol,Tobacco,Firearms,and Explosives,including law enforcement weapons in the country.
In the past 18 months there have been more than 500 mass shootings in the USA in which 4 or more people have been injured or killed.
And unless the pro and anti gun lobbies find a way to negotiate sensible reforms there will be many more deaths and injuries.
The USA has a population roughly of 325 million people with over 300 million firearms strewn among the population .
The future does not look good to me unless the American Government gets serious and acts on Gun Control .
