englishman has a thread about the generation idea and the apostates - most interesting.
after reading this, it occured to me it would be interesting to go to the official watchtower internet site and use there search function on different words and see what they had to say.
here is what i found out.. first of all, they do not show complete articles.
I think the limit on literature has to do with being undermanned. A year ago I got a chance to sit down with a couple of their web developers and they were barely learning the ropes. Basically they are learning as they go along. And for the amount of information they need to post, they are very undermanned.
I think eventually they will publish more articles online as they will see that it is an excellent tool to spread information.
a bit of a touchy subject.
i have had the week from hell... i have a bad chest infection and have not been well for sometime (as some of you here know).
my gp suggested an hiv test as beng gay i am a high risk... i agreed and had one.
Without attacking your lifestyle directly, doesn't this make it unnatural for two men to be together?
mine is the story of a lady who was witnessing alone in an apartment building, and aparently she knocked on the door of some rapists/murderers/drug dealers......whatever......she was "saved" by two angels, only visible to the attackers, that accompanied her on that visit.
.
or how about the one where a householder had his finger on the trigger of a gun and was just about to pull it when.....all of a sudden....out of nowhere (drumroll please) a witness knocked on his door and offered him "the promise of everlasting life in the new system of thingstm"!!
O.K. here are a few that I've heard:
Two witnesses were going door-to-door, they knocked on one door and a lady came out. There was a party going on and some where playing with a ouija board. When they saw the Witnesses they asked the board "Are the Witnesses the one true religion", the board answered "yes".
Here's another one:
Two witnesses in Mexico were out in rural areas (in the mountaineous region) when it started to rain. They ran and hid in a dark cave, well it was pouring so they stayed in there and decided to sleep the night. It was so dark they couldn't see each other. In the middle of the night Bro. A tells Bro. B that it is getting very warm, but Bro. B says that it's not. Once again Bro. A awakens Bro. B and mumbles that it is very hot and he is sweating. Bro. B says that it can't be as he is very cold. Morning comes and Bro. B wakes up and to his horror a huge snake has been swallowing Bro. A slowly, only his head was now showing.
One more:
A lady into black magic and spiritism starts stuyding with the Witnesses. She progresses and is baptized. That same day she returns to her home, gets on top of her bed and yells "Allright Satan now I am baptized and I can take you on!". The next morning she is found barely alive all slashed up (as if someone with a knife carved her). The moral is "Jehovah will not protect you if you're an idiot".
is it possible after researching the net on jw beliefs, background and reading apostate information that a jw would still research the bible and find watchtower teachings as truth?

do you want to read this year's memorial talk outline?
of course you can, and you can naturally find it on the watchtower observer :).
yachyd da.
This thread is so funny.
After all the whining and crying, apostates still need the food that the Faithful and Discreet Slave offers!
i saw this on pln.
anyone here know anything about this new book?.
benefit from theocratic ministry school education .
No one can keep up with the Witnesses.
well he's always asking for them so, kent, here they are.
i'll add the new ones each month as i receive them.. i've got most of the km's going back a few years but please don't ask me to scan the lot!
if there are specific issues you need however, just let me know.. posting them here so everyone can grab 'em as opposed to emailing out dozens of copies.. nic'.
Thanks for the scans.
This is proof that while apostates are whining and complaining about their former brothers and sisters, the Witnesses are actually doing Jehovah's will and preaching the good news to all people.
I'm sorry. Mil Disculpas.
misleading insertion.. in the 2-22-02 awake magazine with the cover title how safe are you at work?
has an interesting article under watching the world.. blood transfusion dangers.
one in three transfusions were being administered when, under [new south wales] health guidelines, they should not have been, reports australias sydney morning herald.
Now I now how apostates learned to quote. Cry all you want about an unfair quote when all of you twist everything the FDS says.
cry baby cry
the wtbs in the uk and all the relevant congregations have introduced a 10 charge for anyone wishing to see their personal files and info held under the data protection act.
information includes publisher record cards, s77 forms, specialised sheperding lists and so on.. i presume that this just applies to the uk.
does anyone know of any other countries that have started to apply charges?.
What happened to the new elder book, Jemimah?
I guess you're not who you say you are.
