dmouse,
you make a very good point. The problem is that there is "evidently" all over the place in that proof. So, the diehard JW will quickly point to that and say "... our faithful brothers were as sure then as they are now. Praise be unto the Lord.". :)

CHANGE IN RESURRECTION DOCTRINE?
by Mary inok, this is from the january 1, 2007 craptower.
page 25 is the study article called "the first resurrection---now under way".
it's too boring to type all the stupidity written, but here's a brief synopsis of where they come up with the brainiac idea that the first resurrection occurred in 1918 onwards:.

The news I've been waiting almost 12 years to hear
by Jesus Christ inso, i'm out of the organization and have been for about 7 years now but my parents and sister are still in.
i'm about apostate as you can possibly get but for some reason my family still talks to me on pretty regular basis (note to all of you trying to leave out there, make the crazy cult issue your loved ones issue, its nothing for you to be ashamed of).
i called my sister tonight to talk about work and it was one of the best conversations i've had in years.

Lovelylil, I read your post with much interest and, let me tell you, it's always refreshing to see things from a different perspective. If it was me, I'd probably choose the "let go" and "forget" option.
However, I do think that Jesus Christ is entitled to feel the way he does. Things are different for different people.
Thanks for your thoughtful message.

I think this is something.
Is there a "possibility" that someone would scan the damn article for us? That could be very "interesting".
The Society is once again, friends, using the old tactics of slowly backing away from a doctrine, and because the average witness never really undestood the old position, he won't undertand the new one either. So, maybe 98% of the Witnesses will not even notice that something is changing here.
And praise be unto Jah for leading us in crooked ways.

anyone feeling a wee bit guilty about celebrating Thanksgiving and Xmas??
by Star Moore ini was feeling a bit guilty about celebrating as this is my 1st year out and i know the history of all the holidays and birthdays are pagan or bloody or idolatrous.. .
but i was thinking that it's not what someone made them in the past but what they are right now.. to us, at this moment.
am i going to sit down on thanksgiving.. and say, "i hate those indians, think i'll go kill some"..????

... and Star Moore, forget about what the Bible says about that. If one uses the Bible to justify why one is doing something, it is likely that a diehard, know-it-all, all-just christian will use the same Bible, reading from a few pages after that one, to "prove" exactly the opposite of what you just concluded.
It's an exercise in futility, in my opinion.

Christmas and Thanksgiving are all about having a great time!
by observador inwe are having friends over for thanksgiving this year, and we're enjoying every bit of it.
as for christimas, we are playing all that game with our little one; santa claus coming with a gift for her; we're helping her decide which present we'll ask santa to bring, and all that crap.
we're enjoying all of that, especially since our parents never did that to us.
