Judicial committees - Scriptural basis?
by Zico ini just found an interesting statement in a watchtower article that is going to be studied soon.
although not the theme of the watchtower (which is why we should attend their meetings) i wondered if this was a subtle attempt to make a response to the argument that there is no scriptural basis for judicial committee meetings.. .
november 1st 2006 watchtower, pg 28, para 5.

Is Jehovah evil? Overheard at the public talk.
by Zico ini heard a new teaching from the public talk today that i'd never heard before.
the speaker asked a rhetorical question, asking if jehovah would be evil for killing 6 billion people during armageddon?
(yes, he actually said, killing 6 billion people) he then followed it up by saying 'yes!

New Society DVD - Review
by Zico ini just got home from a wonderful evening out at a 'brother's' house.
after a good meal shared with some other brothers and sisters, you can't imagine my excitement when the host brother brought out the wonderful new society video that he'd recently received at the kingdom hall, and suggested we watch it!
now, as you can probably imagine, this was my idea of how to have fun on a saturday evening.

kn37 - 50 bible studies
by Zico inat the service meeting tonight the service overseer announced that the british bethel had received 50 requests for bible studies since the campaign.
this surprised me, though i suppose it's not really a huge amount, i wouldn't have expected that many.
also, our cong has run out of tracts, and we're only half way through the campaign, with lots of territory still to cover.

Society's viewpoint of other bibles
by Zico ini like this quote, from page 145 of theocratic ministry school book about using other bibles.
'you must realize, however, that some bible translators have taken liberties with god's word.
their renderings may not conform in all respects to what was in the original bible languages.

"those who are afraid of the shunning policy {process} need to feel this on some level in order to fully comprehend why so many are hurt and angry, still.
why we are fighting so hard for truth and justice.

Brazilian Grand Prix
by Zico inanyone watching this today?
alonso's in a good position today, starting in 4th place, with schumacher dropping to 10th due to an engine failure in qualifying.
schumacher has to win and hope alonso retires or finishes outside the top 8 in order to win, which is unlikely, he'll be retiring after this race.

Book study funnies - blood
by Zico inthe book study tonight was all about abstaining from blood.
the usual nonsense which we've all heard before, but i thought i'd share some amusing comments from the completely misinformed and delusional brothers and sisters there tonight.
i wish jwfacts, td or any of the other board blood experts could have been there tonight to hear this, now that would have made a good study!
