When I much younger, during the 60's, I smoked dope with most of my jw friends, i was "the most high" because i smoked more dope that them. End of discussion!
Anyone got some legal stuff?

Why "Most high"?
by Doug Mason inif there were only one god, why do we encounter the expression, "most high god"?.
is this not indicative of polytheism, and of levels (or degrees) of god-ness?.

Monthly Broadcast for December 2017 is 'replaced by....' - plus more....
by darkspilver inlooks like the wt are even reducing the video content nowadays...... no jw tv monthly broadcast for december 2017 - instead it is replaced with the 'gilead graduation part 1' programme.
issues with translation - apparently replacing the monthly broadcast with the hour long 'spiritual' part of the graduation means that the wt are able to translate it into more languages than before.. plus more.....

My Personal Study
by The Real Edward Gentry inmy current personal study is about the resurection.besides the nine well known resurections (the son of the zaraphath widow, the son of the shulamite woman, the man whose body touched elisha's bones, lazarus, jesus, son of the widow nain, the daughter of jairus, dorcas and eutychus).
there was enoch who god 'transfered' so he wouldn't see death and elijah who god took away in a flaming chariot hidden in a whilwind!
as well as these there were the holy men ofjerusalem resurrected at the same time as jesus.

Thinking about resurrection doctrine. It's purpose is to restore persons to life so as to bring joy to them and their loved ones! But in the bible account of resurrections, the one that got resurrected, died again so that they and their loved ones would have to suffer death twice!
jehober is good! No good deed goes unpunished! So death must not be the enemy that we are told it is because jehober would certainly not let his loyal ones suffer death twice, would he?

Jehovahs Witnesses – Does the Sect’s name really mean for what it is ?
by EverApostate inthe term jehovah’s witnesses sounded weird to me even when i was in that cult.
why does god need witnesses to prove his existence?
there is no need for anyone to create a movement called “suns witnesses” or “moons witnesses” – in order to prove its existence and glorify it, because the sun and moon are evident to every species on earth.

Didn't the 'name' come from a supposed "vision in the night" given to Rutherford? It was probably a booze induced hallucination that created the stupid 'name'. I believe that by changing the name to jehovah's witnesses, was Rutherford's way of creating his own personal religion.

One of the best "No blood" stories I ever heard was told to me by a CO. It went something like this;
An very angry 'worldly' man, tooting a gun, storms into a KH and shoots a 'brother' several times. It's later discovered that this 'brother' has been screwing this man's wife, a 'sister', for quite sometime. When the ambulance arrives to take this bleeding 'brother' to the hospital, he's heard telling the EMT's ,"no blood, no blood, I will not accept blood".
You gotta love the hilarious irony of this story!

March 2018 Study Watchtower
by Listener inthe first study article is about getting bible studies and children baptized.
there is much more emphasis placed on parents to get their own children baptized rather than focusing on bible students.
they try to impress on others the need for urgency.

Not even one mention in the bible of young persons getting baptized! The bible only records "men and women" never " young men and virgins" as being baptized!
But-but-but the wt patterns their religion after the first century christian congregation? I call bulls**t!

How can there be so many half empty KH's if so many are getting baptized? Must be at least one or two leaving or becoming inactive for everyone getting baptized! Or are the numbers being artificially inflated?

Keys to understanding the Book of Revelation
by Doug Mason in· the whole book of revelation is one letter.. · that letter was to be taken by a courier and read out aloud in churches along a road that ran from ephesus to laodicea.
the author was very familiar with each of the churches.. · those christians were experiencing intense persecution.. · the letter was designed to encourage these first-century christians to “overcome”.
it told them that the end was imminent (“soon”) and they had to remain faithful, to the point of being prepared to losing their lives.. · john had gone to patmos in order to compose (“receive”) the message.

Smoke you some good weed and then maybe, just maybe Revelation will make sense!
The writer surely had some great hallucination going!

Joe; Dad, if I need an operation will you honor my decision to have a blood transfusion if the doctors say I need one?
Dad; No son I could not honor your decision because it violates my conscience!
Joe; Yea that's what I though------you one way a**hole!

A nearby KH here in central California had to be torn down because they built it on a land fill and it started breaking apart. It seated 238. They are now building a new hall with only 138 seats. Jehobeer must be blessing that congregation! Its epidemic shrinkage!
