1- From Jehovah's perspective. 100 humna years is not "near" at all, even when we compare it to the thousands of years humans have been around.
2- So more people can partake?
3- According to Jesus illustration of the fine seed and the weeds, they grew together and the weeds overgrew the wheat for a while. True worshippers were there, just not very visible.
4- He wanted to make them feel better?
5- Ahhhh, next question please.
6- To prove he's right. That's what this whole thing is about.
7- They wouldn't be able to answer these questions either. Ha!
Thy these:
1.- YOU: If someone who previously belonged to a different relion (greek orthodox) becomes a JW, how should he treat his family members? JW: With love. YOU: What if someone leaves the JW?
2.- Ask them how they'd feel about one of their children joining a club with a secret book that no one else can read. Then ask for the latest Watchtower Study artilce.
I didn't know anything about the 2 gay GB members. I'll do more research on that. Personally speaking, I don't see what the big deal is. Jesus did say that many of his followers would be homosexually inclined. Even now the JW's teach that as long as you don't act on it, the way you feel doesn't make a big difference. And just as having different cultures and women and gays adds knowledge and understanding to the congress or the army, or the Supreme Court, so maybe the JW wouldn't be such a mess if they allowed for a little more diversity.
