Oh, so, that's what it's for !
by aligot ripounsous in"praise is also going to the three cabin crew who organised the evacuation of the 150 passengers.
and there is credit for the french-based european airbus firm for building a tough airliner.
among other things, unlike boeings, the airbus has an emergency "ditch button", which closes vents and makes the fuselage more watertight.

Obama's soles
by aligot ripounsous inno wonder obama won hands down, in an armchair, after voters saw this picture and made the comparison with the price of sarah palin's wardrobe.
imo, though, he is smart enough for having directed this mediatic coup.
and who could possibly believe that michelle, who most likely supervised his campain, or the girls, didn't notice what the condition of these soles was ?

Romans 11 : 26 - all Israel will be saved - Which one, and When ?
by aligot ripounsous inthe question of readers article in june jws only wt magazine (the one which is studied in august) deals with romans 11 : 26 where paul writes that "all israel will be saved".
as we know, if ct russell believed that this statement was to be understood literally and he expected the jews to convert to christianity as a sign of christ's return, the current position of the wts, as explained in this qfr article, is that "spiritual" israel and not fleshly israel is what it is about in rom.
chapter 11 and christ's return will be marked by the completion of the whole number of the 144 000 anointed.

Do GB members have Holy Spirit when editing WT pictures ?
by aligot ripounsous inpictures in the latest two wt study articles left me with an uncomfortable feeling, which leads me to wonder if hs is ever inspiring the gb members in charge (i suppose there are such ones) of editing wt study articles before them being printed.. first, there was that picture last week where a jw man is meant to give his work colleagues a fine witness as, during break time, he is reading his bible, and it is implied that, in doing so, he is triggering the interest of one of his work mates who, at first, looks rather suspicious.
in fact, that jw man is sitting ten steps away from his colleagues and reads his bible quite ostentatiously.
at watching that picture, instead of thinking of a fine witness being given, any onlooker will say that this mans attitude is pharisaic and delivers the message that he his holier than all those around who belong to the sinful world and he doesnt want to mingle with them.

well, children are mature enough to take a stand in behalf of the kingdom
by aligot ripounsous ini heard this morning the "who will be saved (n 126) " public talk.
the speaker raised the point of age baptism and he confirmed what has been pointed out a couple of times on this board, namely that, according to a trend which seems to be fairly recent within the wts, people don't have to be adults to decide they want to become jws and get baptism.
the only two examples which the speaker selected were 2 children : manaseh who, at age 12, promoted idolatry, and king yoshia who restored jehovah's worship as soon as he came to power at age 8 !

What exactly happened at Meribah ?
by aligot ripounsous ini attended this we the meeting of an english speaking congregation, where they happened to have their co, an american ex- bethelite with his french wife.
he sounded quite sensible in his concluding prayer, saying that jws are in search of the truth, in connection, i assumed, with the wt article of the day.
that was the least he could say since, as i told him at the end of the meeting, we had seen three different definitions of the generation of the end within the last 13 years.

JWs' children, in a covenant relationship to Jah like the Jews ?
by aligot ripounsous inlast sunday, after the meeting, i had an interesting conversation with an elder, who asked me, among other things, how my 2 teen children are faring, because he noticed that they don't attend meetings anymore.
i replied that they are fine and, as far as meetings are concerned, they are of age to choose their own ways.
i said that their being jws' children doesn' t put them, before jehovah, in a special position.

Who are those young JW SKINHEADS ?
by aligot ripounsous inat the latest circuit assembly, i noticed that quite a few young male jws (or at least attending youths), say sixteen upward and mostly mixed race, are skin headed.
apart from that, they are quite well dressed.
that way, elders won't reprove them for their long hair ... looks like an obvious defying message to a rigid organization.

Mat 27.52 bodies of holy ones.Sorry,bro.Franz but YOU'RE RIDICULING US
by aligot ripounsous inafter jesus' death, mat.
27 : 52-53 reads : and the memorial tombs were opened and many bodies of the holy ones that had fallen asleep were raised up, (and persons, coming out from among the memorial tombs after his being raised up, entered into the holy city,) and they became visible to many people.
let me first give cognac the credit for having raised this topic lately (i don't know what was written on jwd in the past on this subject).
