  Interesting topic Outlaw. I have watched 2 DVD’s about Bilderberg Group and read a number of articles about them.

  They are, as stated, a real organization of very wealthy people whose publicly stated aim is a New World Order with one World Government. Unlike the Watchtower society who is content to wait on Jehovah, Bilderberg Group have the means to bring their aim about themselves.

  It will take many years but the pieces are being moved into place. Once the world’s nations are grouped together into a small number of united nations or blocks, the blocks can then be joined into one whole. The USA is one. A United Europe is another of the blocks but it is not holding together as planned and is likely to fragment. One od the requirements is a universal currency

  Bilderberg Group believe that the excessive human population is using up earth’s resources at an unsustainable rate. To achieve their goal, many people must go. There is no guarantee that they will succeed but they are doing their best to.

  There appear to be advantages of one World Government. But the downside is that there would be no opposition to challenge or counterbalance its authority. They will not suceed in my lifetime, so I will not loose any sleep. Love the Jet!

  myelaine

  You are well versed in the bible but it is only one book, or 66 if you like.

  Perhaps you should read the plot by Shakespeare of ‘Much Ado About Nothing,’ before casting stones.

  There seems to be an assumption in the title that there is 'a God' humans serve.

  Humans have served thousands of gods.

  I only serve Caesar because I am sane.

  our dc coming up this weekend, i hated them and the only thing that kept me going ,was the reward of booze at the end of each day.my then wife,zelous judgemental pioneer, you know the type,not only droned on about my drinking, but about everyones drinking, a real barrel of laughs not.

  anyway, one year we went to another dc, in newcastle, all seemed to be going well, until lunch.we went over to a hotel for lunch,i ordered my fresh orange and food, a few minutes later, the local jw,s arrived for lunch, they had all pr-ordered drinks,alcoholic drinks, and not one drink but many !!!

  they were buisy getting boozed up for the afternoon session,way to go, i was about to join them, when my wife told me " dont even think about it ", anyway she was outraged, but there they were ,with thier little convention badges, men and women, young and old, getting merry, they dont even do that here in scotland, !!!.

  Back in the 70's & 80's I used to attend the London Twickenham Stadium assemblies. We often had hot sunny weather. A small group of us young blades, along with some crumpet, would always slip away at lunch time, to a nearby pub for a couple of beers. The British JW's are not as alcohol adverse as Americans.

  The end was due at any moment and not being sure we would be spared, we didn't want to face death sober. Wonderful days!

  The forum is quiet lately as many long term posters have moved on. Hillary step was a hoot but hard on fools. Looking back to those day there were some very robust debates with a lot of mud slinging. They were informative, funny and entertaining.

  People that come here asking for help are shown empathy and kindness. People that try to pick a fight get slapped down. People that join accidentlly get laughed at. Seems about right to me.

  The way to change the flavour of a forum, is to stay and show by example how we think people should be treated. Leaving achieves nothing and is never constructive.

  Make sure that the alcohol doesn't get too strong and kill the yeast before it has used up the sugar.

  Adam didn't have intercourse with Eve prior to sinning? Watchtower Quote.

  by ThomasCovenant in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  watchtower 15th jan 1958 page 62 qfr.. why, after receiving from god the express command to multiply and fill the earth, did adam and eve refrain from carrying out this procreation mandate while they were perfect in the garden of eden?.

  asking this question concerning adam and eve is like trying to meddle in the private affairs of a christian married couple today, and asking why they have had no children as yet.

  jehovah god set no definite time for adam and eve to begin having perfect children to fill the earth.

  The only human Adam had ever met was made from his rib. He logically assumed that to fill the world and subdue it would use up all his ribs and more besides. How could he know that there was a more pleasurable way to bring forth human offspring?

  He probably thought that intercourse referred to the invasive method used to extract his rib. There he was with a perfect naked woman and not clue what to do. Reminds me of my first time!

  You have my sympathy Jeff. This must be a worry and a stress for you.
