i may be wrong but it seems that with each passing year the number of real jw and religious related threads gets less and less on this site..

how do you explain david's graphic portrayal of jesus' death by crucifixion (psalm 22) 1000 years before christ lived?.
how do you account for the odds (1 in 10 to the 157th power) that even just 48 (of 300) old testament prophecies were fulfilled in jesus christ?.
in what sense was jesus a "good man" if he was lying in his claim to be god?.
“Is atheism meaninglessness epitomized when deconstructed as simply narcissitic behavior? ”
It could be said that the desire to live forever is the ultimate in self love or admiration of oneself; therefore the personification of narcissism
literally!.
there was belowing white smoke, horrid smell.
no not the brain frying, my car - or rather a wire in my car.
You are seeking help from the wrong god. I have more than 300 Greek & Roman gods. I am prepared to share. You can rent for $25 or buy one of my god's at a discounted price of $150 - as you are a forum member.
Mind you there is no money back guarantee and each god sold is invisible. The only thing that can be proved to exist will be your money.
Hope this helps.
heh peoples.
since joining jwd i have been inundated with women throwing themselves at me from every corner in the world.. .
i am not close to funny.. .
usualusername Women on this forum throw themselves at me too. That is why I wear armour and keep my gladius keen.
wow, it's hard to believe it's already been about a year since this subject was covered in the wt study at kindgom halls around the globe... let's read it just one more time, so we don't forget just how ridiculous this sounded when we first read it.... watchtower (study edition), april 15th, 2010 issue, pages 27-29:.
"this magazine has long been used by the faithful and discreet slave as the primary channel for dispensing increased light.
... what does this explanation mean to us?
DesirousOfChange “ The Watchtower Society doesn’t actually talk of overlapping generations. FADERS take notice!”
After reading this statement I've casually referred to the New Understanding as the "Overlapping Generation" doctrine. This made we realize that I'm using "apostate" terminology with JDubs. NOT a wise move!”
I made this mistake a month ago when confronting djeggnog on the thread ‘Is the Watchtower shy about repeating their new "generation" teaching?’ He got his panties in a dreadful twist, but while struggling with his predicament, managed to straighten me out on my understanding of overlapping generations.

The Watchtower Society doesn’t actually talk of overlapping generations. They talk of two groups of anointed members living at different times whose lives overlap. They assert that this constitutes one generation. This illustrates the confusion that intellectual dishonesty causes.
in 2009, they reported 118 branches.
in 2011, they reported 98 branches.
a net loss of 20 branches in 2 years.. they are selling off kingdom halls, here and there - sometimes packing several congregations into one hall where one per building was the rule.not compassionate where weather or other traveling factors could injure publishers..... and they're selling off some assembly halls, too.. brooklyn et al is being sold - and you already know about all the many cutbacks, layoffs and the downsizing of magazines.. why?.
It wouldn’t surprise me to see the Bethel Boppers reduce meetings to one hour on a Sunday. The end of this wicked system will be predicted to occur some time this century, God willling. Reporting time would be stopped.
As long as the 7,000,000 worldwide membership use enough literature and contribute enough to keep the tax evading Tower in place, all will be well.

Pams girl So glad you decided to stay around. (I have just returned from a week walking in and around Crickhowell South Wales. Thanks for your invitation to call by) Love the new avatar. Keep on keeping on, people notice you, even if they don't comment.
the reason i ask, is that if you search the wt publications, you will see that it is spelled with only one "p" over 600 times, but also spelled with two "p"s 600 times.. .
very confusing!
any linguistic experts out there that know which it should be?.
In the UK we 'P' twice in this word.
