i don't know if it'll be my last. i still attend every memorial, sit in the back, play angry birds on my phone and encourage my son to be noisy. sometimes i go to a restaurant with the less zealous JWs afterwards.

1914 countdown card in 2014 Yearbook
by jwfacts inthe 2014 yearbook has a scan of the 1914 countdown card.
it does not say whether this was published by the watchtower or independently, so please let me know if you have any further information about it.
in typical offensive fashion, the yearbook blames the members rather than themselves for the false expectations held for 1914.. some bible students even carried a countdown card so that they could mark off each passing day.

are they trying to move away from 1914 already?

next week's bible reading (Gen. 1-5) stumpers.for your "in" family conversations & sly comments.
by prologos inyou may add many, but here are two:.
1) vegetation made on day 3, animals formed day 5,6, but- then.
in gen 2, man seems to be the primary creation, and vegetation and then animals were formed from the dust and brought to him to name them.

first there was vegetation, then there was light. plants worked differently back in the day.

Why does the WT insist that the first five books of the bible were written by Moses?
by marmot inany biblical scholar worth his salt will tell you otherwise, and it's not as if this is a new concept.
as early as the 1700s people were noticing that the first books of the bible had numerous authors.
tell that to an elder, though, and you'll be booted for apostasy faster than you can say spanish inquisition.

in the german translation of the NWT the first 5 books are called 1. mose, 2. mose, 3. mose, 4. mose, 5. mose (first, second, third, fourth, fifth book of moses).
i don't get it either. deuteronomium describes how moses died. when i asked a zealous young witness how this can be, he researched (insight books...) and came back to me that the last part was written by joshua. so i asked him why joshua didn't write that part in his own book. plus, why does joshua also die in the book that has his name...

ravens, i really don't see the difference between what you believe now and what you did a while back as a JW. just some nitpicking. you probably should have stayed a JW for your family's sake.
