Satan
by lime05 insatan was created as a righteous angel, "he did not stand fast in the truth".
he is called "satan," or "resister," because he has opposed and resisted jehovah.. so whos to say the perfect humans in paradise wont "oppose" or "resist" jehovah after christs thousand year reign.
after all their is no jw teaching which says the devil was decieved by anyone infact it was down to greed.

by sir82 inask, and ye shall receive.. i will herewith post my notes from the km06 elders school i recently attended.
i will post this in 6 parts, to give people a chance to read smaller chunks and comment on them.. a couple of introductory notes: i wrote an awful lot of stuff, and will not post everything.
for each talk, i will post 3 sections: (1) general synopsis, (2) personal thoughts & observations, (3) particularly egregious quotations.. the primary speakers, who delivered more than 1/2 of the talks, were a circuit overseer and a guest from brooklyn bethel.. to protect anonymity, we will refer to the sadly inane circuit overseer as brother sico.. and the old-timer lifelong brother from bethel, completely out of touch, as brother bethel-coot.. one more introductory comment: it seems the main points the society wanted to send to elders were:.
