As a ' young brother ' I was assigned to help two of the remnant annointed with their field service reports . The brother was almost blind and the sister infirm both in their late 70s 80s . I always felt a bit ashamed that they turned in more time than me, and felt quite in awe that I was helping those who were going to heaven to be beside jesus.
This was early 60s when they had the big blackboard with all the stats'....oh the memories of those reports
69-110 billion, 90% of the people who've ever lived are dead.
that's a lot of folks to be resurrected.
take away we who are apostates (a million or two) that still leave 67-110 billion.. raining down manna from heaven will not cut the mustard for 100 billion people, there is not much you can do with manna, manna bread, manna tacos, manna soup and manna sweet cakes.. there is not enough resources to to house and feed 100 billion people, 7-8 billion today.. i'am not a economist or mathematician but the resurrection will create a whole set of new problems for mankind.. it becomes a bigger problem when you figure in those folks the lived before adam that the bible forgot to mention..
The new world will bring a new set of circumstances and rules, jehovah does have the power and ability to increase the size of the planet.
Don't you realise he will have already made plans for the increase.
Oh ye of little faith!!

however, they may have missed their window for the appeal being 6 months after the commission said they would investigate them last june.

on jw tv.
anthony morris is ranting against higher education.
he is blaming parents for enrolling their kids in college.
Their so proud of their new tv studio accomplished by the help of jehovahs hand!.....and...eh...countless college and university educated people that jehovah had to rely on to design the technology and build the thing.
The absolute hypocrisy is scandalous !!!!
yes- everyone has faults and makes mistakes; an organization even more so.. yet, you ignore all the fingers pointing at you.. many here have no faith.
many here go to churches who lie about everything biblical; look at x-mas!.
but at least we know god and christ and try to live up to their name!.
an athist made this casual statememt on another thread:.
this would suggest to me that there are at least some atheists that do have consistant beliefs.. .
as an atheist, how could he possibly trust the reason that suggests this to himself?
Theists..especially ' born agains ' who claim to have had a personal and sometimes physical manifestation of christ or his presence imo are coming from a psychotic state of mind.
This brings into perspective the workings of the human brain and the reasons why it can so easily be duped.
The fact that o.p. poses such a question is a symptom of this condition.
I for one hope that the quicker they return to reality they will enjoy a better fulfilled life.
Many of us are testament to this.
christians, should i attend kingdom hall meetings to discreetly "preach" to jws about the real jesus and the lies of the watchtower?.
.
i plan to go undercover and plant seeds into them.. .
Hi cry to... the human brain is a master conjurer, there are many many precedents to this fact.
The real jesus christ to you is as real as belief in many deities by countless people the world over.
They will also have personal testimonies as convincing as yours.
Some will willingly give their lives or even sacrifice the lives of others for their god.
They all think they have the true way.
What FACT makes you think you are correct?
As I say the human brain is a master conjurer.
Best wishes

Hi apog...by your reasoning it is the length of 'time' which makes them correct!!? How absurd.
You must be knowledgeable enough to know of many beliefs which have been shown to be incorrect although they were believed for hundreds or thousands of yrs,
Passage of time brings new knowledge and evidence and understanding.
Best wishes.
