reexamine.org and BitTorrents
by reexaminer inin an effort to speed up downloads of some of our larger files, we've set up many of these files with bittorrents.
for those who don't know what bittorrents are, you can find out more about them on wikipedia.. because of the set-up, we've had to relocate some of the files to different areas in our servers, so some of the 'read online' options that we used to have won't be working the next few days, we'll get it back to the way it was soon though, but also give a couple extra download options.. the latest release is the video, "young people ask, what will i do with my life?
" for those who are interested the bittorrent file is located here:.

JWs and the calendar
by jstalin ini was in italy over new year's eve week and i visited the vatican.
on the tour, the guide pointed out a monument to pope gregory, who invented the gregorian calendar which we use today.
that made me think: jws are so hell-bent on avoiding anything non-biblical, yet they are ok with using the gregorian calendar, which was invented by, *gasp*, a catholic pope.

The other sheep: Looking for an apologist to offer an explanation
by IP_SEC ina verse constantly plucked from context by witnesses is john 10:16. they use it to prove that there are two classes of christian.. and i have other sheep i have other sheep, which are not of this fold: those also i must bring and they will listen to my voice, and they will become one flock, one shepherd.. the this fold say witnesses are anointed christians and the other sheep are christians with an earthly hope.. read the text carefully and in context, and i challenge anyone to be able to prove that.. in chapter 9 jesus heals a man born blind.
this infuriates the pharisees who then attack the healed man and threaten him with being expelled from the synagogue.
the man will not recant and is thrown out.. jesus finds him and asks him to be his follower.

Studies In The Scriptures... any difference?
by Bryan inis there any difference between the printed years (different editions) for the studies in the scriptures series, other than the covers?
and to me it looks like rutherford was the one who put the winged globe on the cover, is that correct?

JWs an adventist offshoot?
by greendawn inisn't it correct to describe the jws as an adventist offshoot and therefore part of the wider protestant world?
they obviously have no connection to the apostolicc church despite their claims.
for example they got the 1914 date and the just once a year ritual of the bread and wine from the adventists so where do they really belong?

Kingdom Ministry issues
by kristyann inokay, i am not sure about this, even though it's probably pretty obvious to everyone, but what exactly is the kingdom ministry magazine?
it's something that is available only to active jws, right?
i know that they don't go around handing it out like they do with the watchtower and awake!
