I completely agree Simon. These vehicles do okay with "Red means stop" and "Green means go," but they lack the judgment a human would have on the finer points of traffic law.
I don't think we're anywhere near a true self-driving vehicle.

As i stated my wife will never wake up, it will take a miracle and right now i have a hard time believing in god. so its hopeless.
Obviously you know your wife better than we do.
One thing to keep in mind here on this forum however, is that most of us think pretty much alike. Sure we have different opinions on political and social topics, but we arrive at those opinions through basically the same process.
We use terms like, "cult" and "blinkers" and "waking up" because that describes the way we think.
But not everybody is like that. Not everybody thinks like that.
For the longest time, I did not understand this. (In retrospect, I would say, "refused.")
I knew JW doctrine backwards, forwards and sideways. I could read the NT it its original language. I knew their history (I'm even cited as a source in the Wikipedia article "Eschatology of Jehovah's Witnesses") better than almost all of them.
None of that mattered. Religion is an affair of the heart, not the mind. Facts are powerless in the face of emotion. Worse, they will build up a wall between you and your wife.

The JW faith attracts people who are inherently unhappy. -Hence the shockingly cavalier attitude towards death.
Nothing will change vis-à-vis the JW faith until that underlying unhappiness is remedied.
I don't mean to sound flippant here and apologize if it sounds that way.
This isn't easy. It took me nearly forty years, so I'm not exactly what you would call a genius when it comes to this stuff (What man is?)
My wife threw her JW literature away when her life outside the "Kingdom Hall" became more pleasant and more rewarding than her life inside it.

Science and Watchtower's astounding ignorance
by Diogenesister inwell these goof balls at jwbroadcast apparently think the study of pure science means not having any "practical application".
oi vey.
sanderson may speak russian but he is so ill educated he appears to think that researching a subject and formulating a theory about it means that's the end of it - in other words he's saying it has no practical use.

at first they were advertising his presence long before they claim he actually arrived .. 1879 was the first wt wasn`t it ?
and their advertising his presence ,when according to their beliefs he din`t actually arrive with his presence until 1914.?.

The name changes reflect the gradual evolution of JW beliefs.
The Bible Students / Jehovah's Witnesses taught clear up until the mid 1930's that Christ had returned invisibly in 1874.
And it was not until the year 1925 that the concept of God's Kingdom as a physical, actual government was introduced.
