i received this generous offering from 'anonymous brother'.
his comments : hmmm...why do i not see such things at most jw funerals?.
please give your 'thank you' to "anonymous brother'.
Ok that's just sick and bizarre!! Has any other deceased GB member gotten this kind of glorification when they croaked? Usually its 2 paragraphs at the back of next months Watchtower.
I guess if any doubted how much of clout Teddy had, well, here's your sign.
Interesting that it gives his date of birth and baptism, two items I have never seen before, which is unusual for someone so high up the ladder at Bethel. Did they ever do a "life story" article on him?

i expect two things to happen soon, one for sure...... .
1. loads of new light, the many changes that are going to happen are evidence of new light, which is done when other gb members taking over lead use their own ideas, but it's really new light.. 2. if things get out of control with this new generation thing, the two who passed away will prob be the scrape goats for that false understanding, and no need to get rid of the apostacy since jah made sure it was taken care of.
(like ray franz for 1975, my whole family believes all those dfed were apostates who put that in the wt) funny how it was given in talks 4-5 years before ray franz was ever added to the gb ;).

members of the second group of annointed will be alive to see the end, or so they are now saying, therefore the youngest member of the anointed alive today is the key here.
how old is the youngest accepted annointed person today?
they can't be any younger than 50-ish, surely.
TD, you make an excellent point. All the twisting and reinterpreting on the generation issue does nothing to address the chronological problem with that group that supposedly began to be gathered in 1935.
Even though they have now for some reason backed off on the idea that the end of the gathering of the anointed was in 1935, the fact remains that millions fall into this group who were promised that the end would come in their lifetime.

how can i see videos on google chrome or on firefox?
i am not talking about this website.
i do not have trouble viewing videos on internet explorer, but my ie is not working right, so i am using google chrome and firefox, i just do not know how to view the videos after downloading it.
What kind of video are you trying to watch? Are you talking like Youtube? They should just play in your browser. Maybe you need an Adobe Flash plugin for your Firefox browser, or for Chrome, if thats what you're using.
Usually though if you're missing a plugin, the browser will display a message telling you so.

i normally dont watch american idol but im glad i did to watch crystal bowersox.
since i first saw her perform in the beginning auditions i knew she would come in close or win.
i loved her final performance this evening.
hard to get too excited about hippy chick, its 2010 not 1968.
And whose idea was it for her to sing 'Black Velvet'???? That song is all about sexy and slinky, two words that will never describe Crystal!!

i listened to this district overseer's talk here:.
http://www.archive.org/details/specialassemblyday-thetimeleftisreduced.
i had never heard of the guy and was curious if perhaps he was decent.
Well disregarding the theme of the talk- more of the same old, same old- he's not much of a speaker, even by JW standards. I know at one Hall I attended, he probably wouldn't have been invited back.

i only ask this because when in, our kh was on leased tribal land and the local jw's could never really get title.
in fact it was difficult to secure a loan from the wts, so we got one privately because of that.
they didn't like the part in the tribes contract that said they could take the building if we didn't fullfill our charter with them and it had to be listed with some local native americans of that tribe and not the elders.
Baba Yaga, did you not read Blondie's post? The only way the Watchtower corporation would own the KH is if the congregation is dissolved. The local congregations using the Hall own it.

what do you think, would it ever get to the point where the pope would be forced to step down, if enough evidence linking him to mistakes in handling the cases comes to light?.
Flipper,
I don't know what you mean by blue side bar, where am I supposed to be looking?
I see an icon for insert/edit link, but it is grayed out. Is that what I should be using?
