How about filling out a field service report and put random numbers in there but each month put the name of a different person in the congregation on it and turn it in. The secretary will be confused and have to contact those people every month.

Oral sex in marriage was considered unnatural in the 1970s. But what is natural? Dogs by nature, sniff butts. That is natural, should we?

Well Vanderhoven, people on both sides are ignorant. It is not about Daniel 4.
It is about Jehovah's promise to David that his offspring would sit on his throne to time indefinite. That was leading up to Jesus being king. But Jesus lived and died and did not become king. What gives?
David and Solomon on down were kings in Jerusalem subject to no one but Jehovah's laws. That changed when Jehoiakim became a vassel to Babylon in 607.
That would seem to end Jehovah's promise of the kings in the line of David leading to Christ. But that is where Dan 4 comes in. It says the kingdom would be paused or banded for 7 times or 2520 years. That is not from when Jerusalem was destroyed but when the kings became subject to Babylon in 607, or 606 or 605, (who knows), and that would end in 1914, 1915, 1916, then Jesus would become king.

I hate the Watchtower but I really still hate the Trinity Jesus is NOT God!
by Witness 007 insome bibles use the term "worship" when refering to jesus...at times people did fall down and bow to him........this doesn't show he was god!
the greek term; proskeyneo, means to prostrate oneself, to bow down and show honour.
now, this was done for jehovah.....and his representatives....jesus israelite kings and priests....but for the honour of jehovah not as creature worship which even angels would refuse.. also i studied the non-biblical early church gospels which really does show a slow decline over 150 years, into the trinity as the watchtower claims...........although i still hate the watchtower society at least i learnt something that wasn't a lie..

I hate the trinity and always will hate it. The problem is that people take quotes from the Bible and use those to form or support the trinity. The quotes can not be trusted. I don't believe that Jesus said Father, son and holy spirit as there was no contextual reason for him to say it. If it does not make sense, it is not.

100 years ago Marx said Religion is the opium of the people. Then in 1989 Reagan got Gorby to open up some. In 2009 some parts of Russia said Witnesses were too extreme, (no blood, shunning, arrogance). They didn't learn and change, so they reap what they sow.

His reasoning was totally wrong.
He started out talking about God's Commandments not being burdensome if we love God. If that is the case then marrying a Witness will lead to happiness. I did that but I don't have that.
Also, they focus on the negatives, but if it is not burdensome, there should not be negatives for marrying Witnesses, there should only be positives.
As for Deut if they wanted to marry NonIsraelites, why would Jehovah care? it is one or two people out of a million. And as for serving the Canaanite gods, that would mean they would choose the losing side. Did Hitler give any commands that his soldiers could not marry Polish people whom they invaded? Would the Polish want to get with invaders? Would the Germans switch to the losing side?

Last night at the meeting, a local needs talk preempted the regularly scheduled part. An elder who is the most Society following elder talked about loving God and then he talked about Bible principles such as marry only in the Lord. He talked of Deut. Then Paul's scriptures. Then it was mentioned that this is a marking talk.
What floored me was when he said that there is a baptized Witnesses after repeated counsel from the elders is continuing to date a non-witness with marriage as a goal. That starts so much gossip. Who is it? S/he is smart, wanting to get a non-judgmental person that wants to make something of him/herself.
The reason that this is a cult.

Russia and the letter writing
by Listener inthis is the whole of the instructions that the watchtower gave jws when writing to russian officials -.
content • you are writing to the official to request his intervention.
express the hope that the russian authorities will stop the legal action being taken against the branch office and the congregations in russia so that our brothers and sisters can continue to gather peacefully for christian meetings without interference.

I like Bibleexaminer's idea to write to them to ask them to continue the ban and show support for it.
