Have JW's set other dates since "1975" are have they quit fixing dates?
by booker-t init would seem that after 1914, 1918, 1925, 1975 that jw's would do as judge rutherford said and stop fixing dates but i was told they suggested other dates since 1975 failed prediction.
do any posters out there know of other dates suggested for armaggeddon that jw's claimed after 1975. i was talking to an elder the other day and he still insist that "apostates" started the 1975 rumor and some dedicated jw's fell for the rumor and that the wts never said 1975 was the end of the world.
he also claims that the wts only said that maybe the world would end but that they never said point blank that 1975 armaggeddon was arriving.

Christology 101
by hooberus inpsalm 8 kjv describes three types of entities: god, angels, and man (angels here i believe refers to nature- ie:created spirit creatures, not to merely to function as messengers) these can be diagrammed based on the psalm as follows: god (yhwh) angelsman.
the watchower teaches that jesus is now (following his resurrection) an angel (michael the archangel) and not god nor man.
the watchtowers teaching on the resurrected jesus can be diagrammed as the following: godangelman.

Tithing
by AshtonCA inokay, i have looked all over this board and i can't find anything on tithing.
actually, i tried to search for it, but i can never get the search thing to work.. anyway.
jw's are against tithing, but when i look it up, other religions have scriptures that say we are supposed to.

Does the WTS's past matter?
by M.J. ini know, i'd jump into this topic by saying, "heck yeah.
they're the ones saying they've been appointed by god based on what they were doing back around 1914-1919.
" but i'm trying to help someone out who has reached a roadblock with his wife.

WHY Doesn't The WTS Observe The Resurrection?
by Sunspot ini never got a real answer about this when i was a jw.
the only explanation that i ever got was that jesus said to "do this in remembrance of me" meaning the taking in of the wine and unleavened bread.
he never said "not" to observe his birth or his resurrection.
