Yahweh's New Covenant Assembly
by cornish in.
an ex jw friend seems to have got well into this group,they have adventist and millerite roots like the jws,he looked into the assemblies of yahweh,but thought they were too centralized around one man and intolerant of dissagrement like the jws but he seems to think this goup are much better in all regards and non organizational.. does anyone know more about this group,i wonder if they have sanitized their web site a bit?

England did us Proud
by cornish in.
ok, so england lost 2-1 against brazil,but at the end of the day it could have gone either way but luck was on brazils side,and throughout the tornament england have proved true gladiators.. congratulations brazil and well done to the england team.. i think that playing footie in that searing heat does favour an equatorial country a bit,i think that if the game was played in cooler evening conditions it would definately have favoured england and made it tougher for brazil,i mean personaly in 80 to 90 degrees of humid heat i dont feel much like moving let alone playing a fast game of footie yet in countries like brazil it is a normal day,since the world cup is so often played in these conditions to accomadate league fixtures it is often more of a test of heat stanima than football ability,anyway it does get a bit borring when the same old teams keep winning ,a bit of a foregone conclusion,zzzzzzzzz,at least france was a change last time,.
who can rise to the challenge and take out boredom from the finals.. congratulations brazil and well done to the england team .

Dateline Dissapearing Act?
by cornish inim just starting to get this suspicious feeling.. .
why is it that there is no mention of last tuesday's sceening on the dateline page?.
all other recent shows have some sort of mention,and are even on streaming audio,prehaps they will get round to doing it for this one,but i,m sure they had the highlights to last weeks show up and running by saturday.. why am i suspicious?.

Dateline in UK-Europe
by cornish inas has been mentioned before on this board,cnbc the european finance version of cnn which does have a few non finance programs will be screening dateline as usual at midnight on saturday.. the only question i have is will the dateline show we are eagerly awaiting be screened the saturay following the tuesday show or the saturday preeceding the tuesday show?.
i would have guessed it would be the saturday following,if not,then i have just missed it.. anyway i remember when most people ran analogue satelite that on the eutelsat hot bird satelite you used to be able to watch what was then called nbc super channel which ran a standard nbc schedule,i dont know if it is still available on analogue for anyone who still has analogue set up on hot bird.i think it changed name to nbc europe,in which case you could possibly see it tuesday night,anyway for most of us over here we can definately see dateline on cnbc on astra digital saturday night,or watch it on streaming video through nbcs website.

Trading Standards
by cornish inthis thought just crossed my mind.. if the watchtower society was a product and not a religion they would be prosecuted by the advertizing standards authority for misleading advertizing,and the trading standards authority for not supplying the promised product.. .
it seems that we have more rights when we buy a vacume cleaner or groceries than when we buy into a religion that can control our whole lives resources.

Who Actually Runs Commentary Site?
by cornish ini just wondered who actually runs this website, http://www.commentarypress.com/commentmain.html.
is it ray franz?.
i found the article on the possibility that the flood was likely only in the messataponia region interesting,especially that arat would have had a different meaning to the present mountain of arat in turkey.

The Ransom paid
by cornish indoes the jw theory on the ransom balance.
the jw theory ransom issue is likened to a hostage situation where a ransom price is paid in order for the captive to be released,when adam lost perfection and brought misery and turmoil for mankind ,the price was to high for anyone to pay except perfect jesus,he brought back mankind,or more specifically those who believe in him.. ok,so the ransom is paid,it was paid nearly 2000 years ago so why is none of mankind seeing any physical benefits now,the jws see this as buying back earthly perfection,and not as a benefit to be seen on after giving up adams flesh upon death,so if something is paid for why does mankind including those who believe keep suffering as though it has not been,why does it have to wait for some future date,why is suffering prolonged when the scales are already level?.
are hostages still held captive even though the price has been paid?

JWS Prosselizing on Paltalk
by cornish ini have visited the jw and friends room a few times on paltalk,but usually i either get red dotted or booted for raising points they dont want raised,anyway yesterday i go in there under a different user name playing mr gun ho loyal witness,talking about how we should be loyal to the governing body,and dont want to get misled by the twisted lies of apostates and how we need to warn the world urgently to get into jehovahs organization or they will die at armaggedon,you know that sort of trash,very soon i get private text messages from jws that i should not talk like that as there were interested ones in the room i could stumble,who were not ready for such frank talk,anyway they hated this frank approach which showed them up to be a load of pawns in front of interested ones got suspicious and asked me to read todays day text,but of course i have no year book,hey is that proof of being a genuine jw nowdays knowing todays text!.
the point i am raising is this,the internet must be a wonderful tool for those who want to get their report brownie points up,i mean they can sit by the pc and mic and notch up hours and hours,even pioneer without going out of the house in the wind rain or snow.. is this the begining of cyber pioneer?
