And another quote from paragraph 13.."By contrast Jehovah's servants choose education that helps them to
develop the necessary skills so that they can maintain a simple life of service to God"

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

Well folks, thats kind of what I was suspecting because I don't quite
see the point in hair splitting as the article seems to do in this instance.
Well said konceptual99 and we all started somewhere. Found your
Egyptian timeline interesting as I'm currently trying to nut that
one out as well, esp. projected population growth etc.

Hi Folks
October 15 2013 study watchtower page 7 para 3. The paragraph states that
"fundamentalists of Christendom teach that the universe, including our earth
and all life on it, is only a few thousand years old. Those who teach this doctrine
- known as creationism-....... etc etc" (it would take me hours to type the whole lot).
My question is... Would not WTBTS be classified as Creationists albeit Old Earth Creationists ?
Some of you will no doubt find the sentence in the same paragraph referring to these fundamentalists
who teach this doctrine as interesting... " They reject credible scientific evidence that contradicts their view"

The Gall Of WT To Give This Advice To Pioneers:
by JW GoneBad inthis past week's wt study lesson was entitled: 'pioneering strengthens our relationship with god'.. under the subheading 'remaining in the full-time service' in par 14 the wt has the nerve to give this admonition to pioneers: .
'desiring to learn from jesus' example, a pioneer does well to keep in mind that the more material things he has, the more he will have to maintain , repair, or replace.'.
i don't think the gb or anyone in the writing department has the freedom to speak on giving adivce on the matter of 'material things' given the fact that wt has close to a billion dollars in real estate and loads of money in various bank accounts; given the fact that gb is currently building themselves new living quarters with who knows what sort of comforts and other amenities.

FWIW
Wallsofjericho, find and use better scripts and only cite these two as you feel somewhere in the talk.
I've done this before with "boring" reference material. Haven't had a lecture yet.
