Imagine billions and billions starting again where the left off, locked in survival, trying to procreate combat? or is god going to engineer out the old personality traits, interfering with freely expressed ego-will?

Let be strait it's mostly all propaganda
by Crazyguy inthere was a video at the convention about hezzekia and the angel killing 185,000. this is just one example of how the bible is mostly stories and propaganda.
there is absolutely no evidence this event ever happened.
first the idea that the assyrians had 185000 troops is preposterous.

and god would would punish them, if they did not pay their tithe, and fully fund the ruling classes. a kind of protection racket.

Jehovah loves "even rounded numbers" or could this be a way to disprove the inspiration of the Bible?
by notjustyet inwhile i am not able to recall them all at this time, i remember so many instances that when a number was quoted in the bible, especially large numbers, they were all "rounded up" to the nearest hundred or thousand.
for instance the angel killed 185,000 syrians, not 184,879. sampson killed a thousand men with the jawbone of an ass, not 961. and on and on on the even rounded numbers.
i would guess that it could be agues that these numbers were correct but is that realistic?

Now we know why the 1975 wt prophesy, (start of the millennium paradise) was not favored with jehovah's support. it is not an even, rounded-off number. so: David Splane used freddy franz for his overlap projection, who died in 1992, ~ 100 years old, and an overlapper like him, would get us to 2075!.-- no make that 2074. better use 1990/2070 rounded off, turned off?

Lbt: "-- the WT claim that the millions killed under Nero were not all faithfull allowing for their claim that the number is not complete yet yeh right set alight on stakes on the Apian way but did not die faithfull
yeah, Rev 20:4 clearly defines those that rule with Christ as martyrs, executed by the ax, not mere partakers dying morphine-laden in hospital beds. and to think that only 80 per year of the billions of Christians over the 2 millenia count. disqualified, because they did not believe in the coming overlapping generation!

Single Sisters Over A Certain Age Group Getting A Bad Rap
by HiddlesWife ini'm new here; one of my relatives was a member on this forum a few years ago and told me about it.
anyways, as a sister who has been in the org since childhood and now in her late 40's (plus as a woman of color), i have noticed that a number of brothers have an ageist attitude.
they are very accepting of young women under 26 and rejecting women over that age, particularly those in their 30's and over.. is this an unspoken mindset from wthq (specifically from bethel), or is it that quite a number of males (sorry, i'm not sexist here) have this type of mentality?

good for them, the right thing to do! it would be a very very depressing, horrible life to be hitched to someone you loathe. It is different if a couple has aged together, are real soul mates., a wonderful union of matched devotion.

Teddy, so you have been studying for a month? four sessions? The next Lord's Supper, wt style is 9 month away, the length of a pregnancy. This most important of Christian/ biblical ceremony, wt version, is as far away from right as it can get. so: ask, research: How many anointed is Jesus supposed to have served the wine & bread too?-- zero!!. Is the wine primarily for the kingdom fellow rulers? no, it is for forgiveness of sins, to regain paradise, and the anointed have to reject that hope, sacrifice it in favor of the upward calling,.( like Jesus did);-- so, wt tells them first to accept, then to discard. and for the supposed paradise inheritors: do not even think of claiming the prize by partaking. it would be apostasy!. so, be pregnant with thought, nine month to go to the reject the ransom wt feast.

God's name
by Gorbatchov infirst at all, there is a new marketing video of god's name, clearly saying the name of god is jehovah.. link: https://tv.jw.org/#en/video/vodbible/docid-502014331_1_video.
and then, there is the video with geoffrey jackson (gb) clearly saying that the original name of god is not known and the use of jehovah is because of it is the most used variant in english.. link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwv_8ocvkj8.
so, something contradicts here, isn't it?.

That odd situation, of not being able to put a name on it, wt has in common with the "original witness": jesus.
He said he "made the name known" to the disciples, but never used it himself, at least that what his biographers indicated. .
