The GB members must know that they are lost, lost in time, having to keep on the watch, they are probably scanning world events to find a pattern they can match to the ramblings in revelation. but like each of the heavenly star constellations, the bible, their guide, is not a real pattern, just pictures unrelated to important situations,-- so bring it on, it should be turning out worse than their last effort.

New commentary on revelation coming up?
by EdenOne ini heard through the grapevine about a forthcoming book:.
together through the great tribulation - come to jehovah's mountain.
still awaiting solid confirmation though.

Oneeyedjoe: "--Splane is probably just going along with whatever to try to keep the gravy train going so he can die in his new compound, so he wouldn't care;
how would you know? David might be the one that is itching to get the pet ideas he is hatching, of the mystic kind, into print and bringing the Rev 1:10: "day of the Lord" aka F&DS of 1919 in line with 21st century happenings. It might be a diversion from the musical ambitions of his. Trying to find a way to make the template of the Apocalipse fit the modern events. if it happens, it is because the latter day Freddy Franzes won out over the Nathan Knorrs.

JW women true value
by Chook inwhen they sent out internal letter to elders regarding the binding of elders book , worldly men could do the job but only under supervision of a elder.
but under no circumstance could a sister touch the book.
the idiots put it in print, any elders wives on this forum should take it up with their man.

smiddy, --- given the odious record that the wt leadership, from the false prophets at the pinnacle to the un-christian cruelty of the local "glorious" enforcers, jw woman should consider it a tremendious triumph not to be part of it. and shame on those that tried,-- by vocal or underhanded means.

At least the Australian government printed the credits. The kingdom government [earthly] never does anymore.

Origin of Life
by cofty inin recent years significant progress has been made in solving the question of how life originated on our planet.. how do you think theists will respond when it finally happens?
as a former christian i know my reaction would have been something like "well that just goes to show that it takes intelligent life to make life", but for two reasons that defense doesn't work.. firstly it would prove that life is not an ethereal force that originates with god.
there is no 'ghost in the machine', no elan vital.

“molecular fossils” he calls Urzymes — Ur meaning earliest or original.
whenever I r[h]ea[r]d "UR" I perk up my ears. like Uhr=" time piece" showing 4.5 billion years ago.

watchtower knows that the wives control the men, but don't want them to control the book too. ladies provide 90% of the blabber at the hall too, so wt does not want to be even in more of a bind. The true value of woman is priceless, never mind the jw slavery.

What is the purpose of life?
by slimboyfat inwhile reading the magazines the other day it occurred to me that jws never really had a very good answer to that question.
because it was aimed at young people and it said something along the lines, "if you believe in god you have a purpose, but if you don't believe in god your life has no purpose or meaning".
i think that is a faulty analysis of the situation.

Good questions Vidquin, may I add, the original questions were: how would believer react to the fait accompli, the future re-creative event of life's start.but now we are down to speculating how it happened, by slow evolution in a multiverse or a sudden major start just here. , how could you predict how deists, theist of various shades react to an event that has not occurred yet, and about which the details will be so important?
