I want the credit card with the Shulamite maiden on it. Second choice, the transfiguration scene on Mt. Hermon. Then again, the 10 plagues - a card for a year, a card for year. Or maybe Lot's wife being turned to salt, that should inspire the doubters...

Based on the money grubbing tendencies of the Crooklyn pseudo-MBAs, I'd be willing to bet that the next "New Light" will include pledging contribution funds, WT funds, assembly funds, special project funds, book and magazine funds a year in advance (September to August) with credit card impressions taken by the faithful for the faithful. Then the WTS can eliminate cash and the money trail. At the meeting it will be stressed that Publishers and Pioneers must have plastic, and if they don't, the WTS will grant them WT credit cards at 42.65% interest rates. No one will be disfellowshipped until their pledges are paid. So much for "we never beg money like the rest of the religions."
her posts for a very long time were overflowing with an obvious scholarship.
i have avidly read her posts and have tucked away as much as my much smaller brain could be forced to take in.
i'm sure others have openly expressed their admiration and appreciation for her, but i would like to do so here.

[jesus will] be regarded in that day with wonder in connection with all those who exercised faith.2 thess.
This invincible "King of kings" will rescue Jehovah’s loyal worshipers and annihilate all their enemies.
So that means all those in Kingdom Halls will be annihilated. Do you see something wrong? It's a little harsh, but then again these people want death and destruction, so why shouldn't they get a taste of the BIG A. Heartless, inconsiderate, cold blooded bastards desiring all to be slaughtered ... THE GOOD NEWS! Huh! The only good news these people preach is coffee breaks.
the number is supposed to be the perfect number and why god uses it so much.
it is gods number
can anyone explain the importance of the use of this number in connection with jws?
7 or 11, baby needs a new pair of shoes! Russell shot craps in Crooklyn.

Who dumped you on your head as a child? Did your parents ever love you? What made you so mean and nasty? Naysayer go away!
what is it with jehovah's witnesses and apostates and "big announcements" - they are as bad as each other.
witnesses are always on about big announcements in the pipeline - just to end up being disappointed.
like the time they reduced the pioneers hours - big wow.

The WTS "visionary" Freddie Franz did not die - in a twinkling of an eye he was cast deep into Catholic Limbo to be with his other "visionary" buddies - Russell and Rutherford. And so it shall go with all of them - no new heaven for liars and whores, and no new earth - Catholic Limbo with Pope Pius and Pope Leo; one big family of imbeciles.

i seem to remember someone here posting a link to a company that ran retirement homes for active dubs.
could someone point me in the direction to find it please.
My malaria is kicking up from years in the Central American jungles, maybe I'm ready to fellowship with others who believe that Brother Russell is still alive.
there was some belief that portions of the social security balances were removed to fund other govt ventures - which is why there was such a push on for bush to get people to dissolve the social security.
27.5 trillion is a lot of money - the implication of what bush is doing is being talked about round the financial world and not in a good way..... greg szymanski.

WHAT'S THE PROBLEM! Have some FAITH! "Naked we came in, and naked we shall exit." CHILL with that FUD (fear, uncertainty, and doubt). Get an extra window washer job, hawk lots of WTS publications, and eat ice cream sandwiches. Pioneers are happy, chill! "From door to door; from dust to dust," said the holy President. Social security is screwed, the planet is raped, and the dinaosaurs mated with gorillas... life is good for the rats and pigs.
it's been awhile since i've been out but i seem to recall that jesus returned to his temple in 1919 (or 1918?
) and at that time, the most reliable servant he could entrust with his belongings were those embodied by those under rutherford's watchful eye.
at that time he found them immersed in pyramidology, they believed in the cross, and a list of other teachings they would rather leave buried ("damn that internet!").
He found Shoeless Joe Jackson and the 1919 World Series between the Chicago White Sox and the Cincinnati Reds. He also found a drunken "Judge" proclaiming himself as Ezekiel-Reborn wielding the Recorder's Inkhorn.
