I have a question
by Es inhey all i was chatting with a friend the other day he is baptized but basically a fader but his wife is still very much in the borg.anyway we were talking bout the new way of announcing d\f and d\a.
and he raised a really goo point.
the fact that they now announce such and such is no longer a jw does that mean if that person wanted to back to the borg they would have to be baptized again to make them a jw????

Fly 2.4 billion light years in 2 minutes
by seattleniceguy inresearchers at the max planck institute have wrapped up the largest supercomputer simulation ever to study the growth of galaxies and black holes.
using 25 terabytes of data, and crunching it for a month, they have produced, among other things, a computer animation that allows you to fly 2.4 billion light years through the universe in about two minutes.. the bright spots in the movies are galaxies.
seeing this movie makes it seem highly dubious that we are the only life in the universe.. the article contains links to three movies.

What is JW teaching about the kingdom?
by jaffacake inafter todays study, i'm unclear about teaching about the kingdom.
is it the same as those who expect the second coming of christ to rule for a thousand years etc.
or is it here now, since 1914. are their 2 kingdoms, or 2 phases of the kingdom?

Christ's Invisible presence in 1914 ?
by run dont walk inif christ's invisble presence began in 1914 and he was put on the throne, how come no one noticed.
surely this was one of the most important events in our time.
surely with all the annoited still alive back then someone must of noticed, at least one person ?, surely jehovah would of shone the light on the faithful and discreet slave class ?

Organisational Re-adjustments
by LouBelle inright so i'm plowing through "crisis of conscience" and have come across one of the ""most significant organisation re-adustments in the moden day history of jws", where they speak about how the organisation will be run because of knorrs' failing health and how extra men will be appointed.
it got me thinking that surely they could have come up with more exciting changes & take overs.
it seems that everything was made to seem that this was a huge & signifcant thing in the everyday lives of us normal plebs, when in fact it went un-noticed really.

Generation of 1914 gone!
by Gill inis the generation that saw 1914, now dead and gone?.
if they were born in 1900, they'd be 105 now and there are not many of these people left.. if they were born in 1914 they'd be 91 and there are not many of these left either.. can we say that the early light of russell and rutherford, and nathor knowrr is well and truly disproved?.
can we say it's just a matter of time before the new light is also disproved?.

The Right To Judge Others
by FairMind inyesterday our visiting elder-public speaker, cautioned against judging others.
he made allowance though for elders to judge or analyze the non-elders in the congregation.
i have always felt that distinctions based on position in the congregation are wrong.
