    What kind of confidence can anyone have in an organization that rejected its founder and first two presidents for the first 63 years of its existence? That's 53% of the time they existed! Any comments.

    I have every confidence. That the GB are imperfect men led by holy spirit. They might make some errors but as the time of the end draws nearer the light gets brighter and brighter. LOL

    It is more and more difficult for the Watchtower to perpetuate its myths given newer, and more accurate histories such as this one:

    This book is a treasure and so is the authors' blog:

    The Russell story as the watch tower told it has always been mostly a myth. They know this.

    It's a "new light" religion.

    What they taught last year doesn't matter, let alone what they taught a 140 years ago.

    Since the watchtower was wrong in the past about its teachings, and the light gets brighter and brighter, that could leave one to believe that the current teachings are correct and won't change. As if. Look at their tract record. Change is coming

    New books with and eraser on the back.

    Holy spirit is not tuning good at Brooklyn. Maybe moving out from there they will have a better reception.

    They were old light, hence no need to praise them, whats important now is to praise the new light coming from todays GB.

    Thanks Jah for the new light, even though it will just fade into imperfect light eventually.

    By the way when is this Armageddon going to happen, your chosen publishing house (WTS.) has been saying its coming any day now for over 140 years

    Heck, didn't they just reject the anointed - the faithful and discreet slaves and providers of their spiritual food, in October, 2012 and get new slaves?

    How can one trust a group who says they get their information directly from "Jehovah", but not know who's receiving the messages????

    The three kings, or the stars in Orion's belt, follow the star in the east (Sirius) to find the sun at the end of the winter solstice ?
