    Steve Buscemis as Garland Green in Con Air "Define irony....bunch of idiots dancing on a plane to a song made famous by a band that died in a plane crash."

    *** w86 1/1 p. 30 Jehovah?Simply Grand! *** ?If we fully recognize him as being a Grand Instructor, we will not doubt or criticize the methods of instruction Jehovah?s ?faithful and discreet slave? class is using today.?

    *** w03 9/1 p. 16 Trust in Jehovah Completely in Times of Distress *** ?We may also manifest our trust in Jehovah by searching the publications of the faithful slave."

    *** w98 8/15 p. 6 Confidence Can Be Restored! *** ??people who trust humans to achieve what only God can do?provide salvation and bring full peace with security?are headed for disappointment.?

    It is an irony that an organization of men takes great pains to teach humans should not trust the teachings of men, then need those humans to trust what they say.

    Steve BuschLett as JW Gardirt Yellow in Hot Air "Define irony....bunch of idiots dancing in a religion saying don?t trust humans to achieve what only God can, and then asking everyone to trust them?

    A nugget of wisdom

    *** w01 7/1 p. 18 Do Not Let Doubts Destroy Your Faith *** ?Religious exhortations to the effect that you should just believe and should doubt nothing are dangerous and deceptive."

    Even a blind hog finds an acorn sometimes!

    hello Marvin,

    This is priceless:

    *** w86 1/1 p. 30 Jehovah?Simply Grand! *** ?If we fully recognize him as being a Grand Instructor, we will not doubt or criticize the methods of instruction Jehovah?s ?faithful and discreet slave? class is using today.?

    Of course the conclusion does not follow from the assertion. Jehovah is the Grand Instructor(tm). Therefore, we will never doubt or criticize the leaders of "Jehovah's" Watchtower Organization.

    Newer readers might note that there is no proof offered that the Watchtower Organization should not be criticized simply because Jehovah is the Grand Instructor and simply because they claim to represent Him.

    "If we fully recognize Farkel as the Supreme Guru of Gurus, we as Farkel's sole representives know that you will not criticize the methods of instruction we use as his faithful and discreet slave CLASS today."

    What crap!

    Marvin, these quotes are definitely keepers. I wonder if Quotes will add them to his site?

    I used to read things like this and think I could disregard them and still go to the KH. Finally, I wised up.
