"Scriptures do specifically mention the waving of the firstfruits in connection with the Passover ceremony. This tie-in is actually the only direct Scriptural basis for confirming the season of the year because the spring equinox is not referenced. To ignore the tie-in with the first grain harvest would seem to do violence to the original requirement, which becomes significant as a type of Christ’s resurrection on Nisan 16 in 33 A.D. Its omission might seem to seriously undermine the Scriptural support for the timing of the Passover celebration." http://www.heraldmag.org/2005/05ma_10.htm

<br>As for Easter......Definition of Easter Sunday Date
<br>Easter Sunday is the Sunday following the Paschal Full Moon (PFM) date for the year. In June 325 A.D. astronomers approximated astronomical full moon dates for the Christian church, calling them Ecclesiastical Full Moon (EFM) dates. From 326 A.D. the PFM date has always been the EFM date after March 20 (which was the equinox date in 325 A.D.).http://users.sa.chariot.net.au/~gmarts/easter.htm

what day is the memorial this year?

Interesting that this year the dubs observe the date a month before Passover along with the rest of Christendom.

i think it's time for my kind of sunday talk.

i began thinking about this tonight, i rented jfk.

now, my girlfriend just finished reading this book written by a forensic pathologist.

So both a totally mind controled jw and a totally duped citizen will believe everything that their authorities tell them is the truth and treat everything else, no matter how overwhelming, as coming from weirdos and apostates.

It's also the kind of reaction jw's exhibit when confronted with the evidence of their unknowing complicity in a huge conspiracy. Deny everything.

WATCHTOWER to adopt new rule

jw

watchtower picks up rule that schools dropped ... "the 2 second hug rule".

like the rule about not being alone with someone of the opposite sex unless in view of others.

new rule to be imposed at all watchtower gatherings.. .

freydi

The petty rules are all the rage. The big ones get ignored or flouted.

1) Oswald, at best, was a medium shot. To hit a moving target with a rifle requires a lot of skill with a good rifle.

2) 51 Witnesses said they saw smoke or heard gunfire from the grassy knoll.

3) A third person was wounded by a stray bullet fragment. That left two bullets.

4) The last and one that would have to create 7 other wounds, break several bones and come out in "pristine condition." Yeah Sure.

5) Possibly the worst autopsy ever performed. Legal or otherwise.

6) Critical evidence locked in the National Archives for 75 years

7) All sorts of mafia/CIA connections

8) Bullet riddled limo immediately disassembled by order of LBJ.

9) Kennedy's brain, or what was left of it, just disappeared.

10) Zapruder film.

I like your characterization of being between "loving wrath" and unable to flip a switch to become worldly. It puts you in a kind of no-mans land. The question is whether you still have faith. In that case it might help to retrace the jw history to see where they veered off track which started with da judge and his shunning policy. Now the dubs are going to be observing the Memorial in March along with the rest of Chrisendom when Passover isn't until April 19th. They are in deep spiritual darkness and it's getting darker, the same as for throwing the baby out with the bathwater and becoming an ignoramus(Latin - for agnostic).

There is obviously a conumdrum.

My question is why didn't Garrison subpeona any members of the Warren Commission?
