Requalifying as an Elder

i'd like to throw something out to the exelders.. over the years since i stepped down as an elder, my dislike for the society and its ways has clearly grown.. but my love for the bible and my family and friends in the congregation has not got less.. i feel sorry that they are not mature enough to grasp the concept that you dont need the society to make god happy.. so i have been thinking ( and its just a crazy thought at the moment ) to requalify as an elder and to begin to really teach the truth.. to really challenge their thinking and take my talks to the limit without getting busted as a heretic.. whats youre thought?.

Why Isn't the USA the Safest Country in the World With All the Guns

we have 9 guns for every 10 people in this country.

since more guns = better protection, i keep asking myself why there is so much gun violence here ???.

i don't see such violence in canada, australia, europe, japan and other so-called "advanced" countries.. what is wrong with us here.

A great picture for proving that JWs aren't weird and cultish...

it's a shame this is only in the study edition, so the general public can't see how normal and down-to-earth the witnesses are in how they perceive themselves.... .

2014 - an interesting year

for me, i'm awaiting for october 2014.. and i'm interested to see how the brothers will react; both in print and in the kingdom hall.. have others thought that it's a bit odd that the eartly christian era was only 74 years in length ( from the baptizm of jesus in 26 ce to the death of the last of the apostals in 100 ad); but the last days are 100 years long?.

WT: World War I started in October 1914 (not July 1914)
by Calebs Airplane in

according to the wt, these are the actual sequence of events that led to the start of world war i:.

1) the gentile times ended on october 1/2, 1914.

2) jesus took the throne immediately thereafter.. 3) one of jesus' first tasks as the newly enthroned king was to engage in a heavenly war against satan and his demons.. 4) having won the war against satan and his demons, jesus expelled satan and his demons from the heavenly realm giving them only terrestial access.. 5) since satan is a sore loser, he became extremely bitter and decided to wreak havoc upon all the earth.. 6) filled with anger, satan then provoked the nations of the earth into a 4 year bloody battle known today as world war i. so there you have it... wwi started sometime in october of 1914 (not july 1914 as history books would have you believe).
