Is that not HISTORICAL?
I believe it's spelled: hysterical
with all the furor over the jw's cash strapped pleas, i'm surprised no one noticed a different issue with this broadcast.
it was historic!
yes, all 7 of the gb have broadcast in the 7 months of the channel's existence!

not sure if my title is correct.
what i noticed is that in say secular bible research documentation, books, lectures etc, one never (or at least i have never read it) reads a quote from one of the former or current wbts leaders nor do i ever see a reference to one of their publication (unless it is article about the jw/wbts itself).. for example, if you read a book on a bible theme or topic written by a scholar or other bible teachers/professors from prof xyz, you will find often in these books a reference to publications / statements / quotes from other scholars or professors.
but never have i seen a reference to say a wt publication or quote / statement from one the leaders of the organisation.. so, despite the million page printed or conferences organised by the wbts, the material apparently is never considered of value to others or to use as reference material.. in my view, that says a lot..... or am i wrong?
This is an excellent point menrov. The reason is simple: there is no academic value to anything published by the WTBTS.
Real scholars of course realize this. If they ever did quote any WT publications, it would likely be to show how wrong they are.
it's well worth taking a look at the article, it will only take you a few minutes.
but i would particularly like to highlight this part: .
if you are going to divulge a shortfall in funds, particularly with the aim of leveraging more donations (or valuable things) from a pool of supporters who are already lagging in this regard, the least you can do is treat them like adults and give some hard numbers.
Look, Stephen Lett is dumber than dumb.
Everyone that is still contributing to this organization is being scammed by con-men hiding behind a religious organization.
It is likely that behind Lett and the other GB members is a cadre of lawyers and accountants that are robbing this organization blind. They are milking it for the fat cash-cow that it is.
Wake up. You're being ripped off.
Let's review: It's a cult!

i havent gone to meetings in about 1 year and a half.
one of my neighbors who is a jw-lady told me that the co on the last visit said that its very likely that right after armageddon (which is just around the corner) the present governing body members will be in charge of the united states since they are familiar with the culture.
and that the apostles and early christians will be in charge of areas like china.
Look! According to their own crazy beliefs, the GB members will be have to die and be taken to heaven in a non-rapture "rapture".
Why debate silly shit?
Look, the current GB members are so fucking stupid they couldn't even "rule" their own asses with a tape measure and a roll of duct tape. Please be sure to tell them I said so.

these are the money-grab letters several people have been asking for.
i almost hate to post these after all the hard work "searcher" did on the other thread.
his version looks almost better than these.
Thanks!
Imagine if a bank tried this: We are forgiving your loan. However, you will need to continue to pay the same amount that you have been paying forever!

Mephis: "Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Won't you first sit down and estimate the cost to see if you have enough money to complete it?"
does this mean possible a creator did or does exist.
there is plenty of evidence of a slow evolutionary changes over millions of years and i do not disagree with this.
but again that fact that mankind can not create a living creature from scratch mean there must be a creator?
