What is the reasoning that the seventh day of rest is 7000 years?
by jwfacts ini used to feel that the prophecy of the seven times ending in 1914 and that the 6,000 years were up in the 20th century was good proof that these are the last days.
but i just started wondering why the wts says the day of rest would be 7000 years and can not find proof for this assertion.
does anyone know why the wts says god would rest for a period of 7000 years?.

Elders that don't want to talk about spiritual things
by VM44 insomeone a month or so ago posted a comment here at jwd about how they were surprised that when elders got together, for instance for dinner or some other non-congregational activity, that they seldom or never talked about the bible or spiritual matters.
(if anyone remembers who made that comment, please let me know!
been trying to find the original thread for hours!).

Interesting and ironic aspect of JW doctrine.
by MinisterAmos ini was reading the "news" on fark.com and one of the topics that came up was how some fundamentalists are refusing rabies treatment for their children based on some supposed scripture.
i suspect it was the same "old light" that the wt used to forbid true christians (meaning jw's) from being vaccinated.. the conversation turned to weird religious beliefs used to make children suffer and their parents to appear more "spiritual" as a result of that suffering (a weird kind of munchausen's complex if you ask me).
in the process up pop the dubs and blood transfusions.. an observation was that the martyred children are often placed on the cover of the wt literature or have articles written describing their spiritual strength; in other words certain people who have followed the rules are hilighted as being particularly "special" in some way.. just to make sure, i called up my book study reader who has about 50 years of serving the wt and asked him "why don't jw's celebrate mother's day again?".

PRAYING.... Is it the answer to eating disorders?
by Gill ini found that the article on 'young popele ask....do i have an eating disorder?
' in the awake magazine for october 2006 to have worrying advice in it.. apparantly the answer to this problem, according to the wtbts is prayer!
how did psychiatrists miss this for so long?.

Would this help?
by moomanchu inwrite letters to the society requesting them to send someone to talk to you about the bible.. the catch, use a priest or ministers address.
no harm done both of the parties want to talk about the bible,.
so your not causing any personal harm, but it puts a nice drain on .
