The Slippery Slope
by donkey inthis is not an issue related directly to this board, but it is an issue related to every one of us here.
it seems to me as if society is about to undergo a radical upheaval in the form of an new energy crisis.
to put it simply we are running out of oil.

The world's oldest song (1400 BC)!! midis!!
by Leolaia inthese are midis of songs from musical notation recorded in ancient texts.
it's nothing like what you can download and stuff your hard drive with, but it's interesting to hear what might have been performed thousands of years ago.
i like the first song a lot and the athenaios one is pretty creepy.

The ascension of King David to heaven
by Leolaia inthere is a rather obscure statement in acts 2:34 that specifies that "david himself never ascended to heaven".
the obvious question that arises from this remark is -- who ever believed that david ascended to heaven?
to answer this, we need to look where else but to the pseudepigrapha.

The Society is gonna let you off your homework kids!
by nicolaou infrom the current (uk) edition of 'our kingdom ministry'.
take a close look at paragraph 4. am i the only one who can see the old pattern of the 1980's re-emerging?
i had thought that the watchtower had begun to take a more reasonable approach to the secular education of it's members children yet here they are again in 2004 willing to jeopardise the education these young people receive for the sake of indoctrination and control.. .

Keeping up with new light
by stillajwexelder inkeeping up with new light is not easy.
as most of you now know, the wtbts has published an article in the awake march 2002 about earthquakes and admitted that there has been no increase in them since 1914. however, the reasoning book and other publications have not been updated with this information.
so when a jw gives a talk from the platform they still give out old light ?

The Watchtower's Yearly Rejection of Jesus Christ
by metatron init's that time again - that special time of the year when 6 million jehovah's witnesses meet together to reject the.
symbols of christian salvation.. never mind that jesus clearly said "he that feeds on my flesh and drinks my blood has everlasting life, and i shall resurrect.
him on the last day" (john 6:54) - in a plain reference to those who hoped in the general resurrection.. never mind that jesus is called the "one mediator between god and man" ( 1 tim.2:5).
