Amusingly the supermarkets are offering flags and bunting for sale in Scotland. I’ve not seen a single taker.

Charles the Third and the Two-Headed Beast
by Anony Mous ini was reading an article about the pomp and circumstance around the first coronation in nearly a century.. made me think of the revelation book (the red one, not the bible) and the picture of the two headed beast with a sword and if i have some time today i will see if i can’t find it and age it a bit, it seems the sword is a bit dull and the two heads are now both octogenarians with severe dementia, kind of funny to see that instead of “swift judgment” we’ve come to internal decay.. what do you canadians, english, scots, irish and australians think about your new leadership?.

Hailstone message.....June 23 WT
by mikeflood innew jun 23 wt....elders to follow gideon example, even if instructions doesn't seems practical, gideon reduced army by 99 % and he obeyed, it could be changes in theocratic direction similar to this.
what that means?.
elders will need the courage to follow instructions "may relate to delivering a symbolic hailstone message...".. in another section "major world events may raise some from spiritual slumber".

What would they do if the “hailstone message”, when it comes, is that God’s organisation itself needs a clear out? ☔️

Just read that Carl Olof Jonsson died yesterday
by slimboyfat infor newbies, who was carl olof jonsson?
he was a jw in sweden who was challenged by a householder in the 1960s, who pointed out to him that secular history books don’t agree with watchtower that jerusalem was destroyed in 607 bce, but instead place the event 20 years later.
the reason the date is important is because it is the starting date for jw chronology which leads to 1914 as the end of the gentile times, and the beginning of the last days, as jws understand it.

I see. 👍 If I meet the Christadelphian speaker again I’ll let him know.
How long would it take to rebuild Tyre? I reckon it would take a Goodyear. 🙂

I attended a Christadelphian lecture where the speaker claimed that Tyre wasn’t rebuilt because the central part of the current settlement still contains the old ruins. He used Google maps and it seemed to check out. What this means for Bible prophecy I don’t know.

I’ve got a copy. Unfortunately this book is as bad as the cover art work suggests. (Sorry Jerry Bergman, if you’re reading)

Is that the actual place he went?! 😮
You know that old thread (linked a few pages back) where LE was arguing endlessly and monotonously (with usual scant knowledge of the facts) with other poster about “Anonymous” potentially leaking Watchtower’s data on abusers? (WitnessMyFury, and a few others had him well sussed back then.) It seemed, at the time, that he was arguing strongly for the data to be released to the public, despite the caution of others that the files probably include individuals who had been falsely accused, and should be handled by the authorities. But looking at it again, was he really arguing that “Anonymous” should hand the files over to him because he was in a position publicise it? Mmm.

RIP Barry Humphries
by LoveUniHateExams incomedy legend barry humphries passed away yesterday aged 89. he was the genius behind dame edna everage and sir les patterson.. humphries was also an intellectual, with a huge personal library of first prints and rare editions.
he apparently dropped out of studying law because he found it 'boring', from what i remember reading about him.
instead, he created a number of comedy characters - as much for his own amusement as ours.. here's to a long life, well-lived 🥂.

Turned off the video at “the seven anti-virus scriptures”. I’ve got no idea what that means, but I strongly suspect I can live without knowing. Chronology is a black hole that attracts crazies on all sides.
That reminds me, I wonder how Gordon Ritchie is doing these days, if I remember right he was the one who secured a meeting with Dan Sydlik to discuss his prophecy madness in the 1990s. Or our own JCanon for the matter.

I don’t agree. If he dwells on it at all, I think he probably finds it amusing that other channels are putting in so much effort and getting so many more views - yet only get a fraction of the money and donations that he does. At one time he probably cared a lot about numbers and the prestige of high profile interviews and connections (Steven Hassan, Leah Remini, Stuckman, BBC, Royal Commission, and so on). He finds it difficult to get credible people to work with him now, but as long as the money keeps coming in he will consider it overall a win for him. Who knows, if someone is such a tenacious liar and con artist, maybe in time will manage rebuild reputation, and start caring about views and rankings again. But as I’ve said before, he clearly hates doing these stupid videos nowadays, so it will be a hard slog. He’ll try to get others to do the work as much as possible and turn up for a few hours each month the keep the Patreon grift alive. If he ends up back on top and fully rehabilitated, he’ll take it, but just the money currently is victory enough.
