  Great critical review Blondie,

  I did hear a talk at a circuit assly where the speaker stated that

  there was nothing wrong with writing out your prayer so you don't wander "off topic".

  I got stuck on trying to comprehend the "most successful" description in

  paragraph 4. What made it the most successful festival since Joshua? (attendance figure?)

  I would have thought the inauguration of temples 1kings 8 and 9 (Solomon)

  or the re-building of jerusalem might have been more "successful" than whacking up a wall!

  We may not hear the comments but I'm sure they will be on the minds of attendees!

  Thanks again jtg

  If Ever That Faithful Should Become An Evil Slave Becuase He Sees That The Master Is Delaying And Starts To Disfellowship All His Fellow Slaves That Don't Listen And Obey Him, Then The Master Will...

  when you think of it the governing body matches up far more closely to the faithful slave that turned evil when the master didn't come when they said he would..

  Have the Borganisation produced a CDROM this year?

  by outinthemeadows in

  2. bible

  has anyone got a download link for the watchtower cdrom for this year?

  i check google every now and then but can't find one.

  perhaps the borganisation can't afford to produce a cdrom with all these child abuse cases they are paying out for?

  Sad but no secret in the motor sport community.

  V8 Super cars saw this coming and introduced "other makes"

  to support the business. We now have mercedes, nissan, volvo

  with bmw and chrysler sniffing around as well as the Penske

  organisation looking to secure racing entitlements contracts.

  I went chasing the "trillions of cd" claim in para 13 and found that Leonard Adleman a molecular biologist and computer scientist

  made the calculation back in 1994-8. However, in 2012 I think if i remember correctly, Two Harvard University scientists

  did the experiment and actually stored 700 Terabytes of info in a gram of DNA. That worked out to 1,024,000 CD'S.

  Who Said modern technology isn't useful for da meetings? I learnt some interesting scientifically proven information there

  on my trusty ipad. Then I enjoyed reading on about DNA Computing.

  on page 15 and paragraph 13 of the same issue the wt also states " Rather than acquiring secular degrees and titles after their names, true christians focus on

  obtaining 'letters of recommendation' by engaging as fully as possible in the field ministry.-Read 2 corinthians 3:1-3"

  Its the October 15th study edition page 16 paragraph 15

  Under the Sub Heading " Benefit from the highest education"

  " What is the atmosphere in many of this world's institutions of higher education?

  Are they not hotbeds of political and social unrest? (eph. 2:2) By contrast Jehovah's organization

  provides the highest form of education in the peaceful setting of the Christian congregation. Each of us has

  the opportunity to benefit from the Theocratic Ministry School. Then there are specialised courses for single pioneer brothers etc etc.....

  No worries konceptual99 I'm on it. That's why I popped the question.

  Hey, one of the microphone handlers tonight dropped the bombshell...

  "there is an anomally in the insight book regarding Sodom's chances of resurrection"

  Joint goes quiet, elders turn around and the mike man goes on to explain the differing 'lights'

  something about the difference and revision of their chances,,,, I'm thinking,, this bloke must be on jwnet !!!!

  I reckon they'll be sorting him out .. lol ha ha
