He "Became Obedient as Far as Death"-- just having the wt say this makes it creepy after all the 'be obedient' (to elders, wt, etc.) wt's lately.

The Superiority of Being Taught By Jehovah --- what? are they equating themselves or the wt or gb to jehoover? Isn't the point of all the meeting to be taught by the fds? Wish they would make up their minds if they have some special channel to God or not. Now they run into the problem with all the false things they have said. Jw apologist always claim that they do not have a special line to God only that they are 'blessed' by God. Will they revise their canned answers now?

"If Your Right Eye Makes You Stumble, Tear It Out"

And we have obediently torn out the "right eye" of the WTS that has made us stumble.

"Practice Giving and People Will Give To You" Translation: people aren't giving enough money.

Drama: Lowliness in mind...must be those disobedient elders from last week's WT study.

Yah, usually Saturday afternoon is when I wake up and pull out my notebook for some juicy quotes. Now my habit is to pre-mark likely talks to pique my interest and doodle around for the rest.

Boy this sure sounds interesting. The wonderful opportunity to hear the same crap for the 120th time. Nothing I haven't heard at a good many of these wastefests. I think anyone going should take their Game Boys and play that new Pokemon Diamond and Pearl. Make sure you have plenty of extra batteries and that they are fully charged, since this is going to be one l--o--n--g boring three-day snoozefest. And at least by playing Pokemon, you will have something better to do than sit there bored and/or puking.

And it doesn't hurt to bring a MP3 player or mini disc player with your favorite music. If you are able to sit near the back, this trick will often work. Caution with either of these tricks: The closer you are to the front, the more likely you are to get busted by one of the ~~policemen~~attendants.

Friday 9:50: Symposium:" Appreciating Jesus As The Greater Moses, David and Solomon" Among other things...

Moses Killed a man....

David comitted Adultery and Murder....

Solomon became an Apostate and Womanizer....

Are they really equating Jesus with this conduct of these leaders? Oh! They are overlooking these great sins,and only looking at them as the ones Jehovah used to lead his people. This using Hebrew examples as a two-fold and sometimes three - fold fullfillment just does not wash.
