This just entered my mind! Open for discussion!
by Number1Anarchist inok think about this for one moment.
the watchtower stays afloat by western society donations.
so as the growth in western societies continue to decline and the growth is in 2nd and 3rd world countries how will the watchtower remain afloat from donations from these places where some make a dollar a day?

Another fossil link found
by Caedes inhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/7736786.stm.
the earliest turtles known to live in water have been discovered on a scottish island.. the 164 million-year-old reptile fossils were found on a beach in southern skye, off the uk's west coast.
the new species forms a missing link between ancient terrestrial turtles and their modern, aquatic descendants.

Pre-flood climate according to JW's.
by veen inback in the day i'm pretty sure i was told that the jw's believe that the world was surrounded by a water barrier before the flood which caused the earth's climate to be 'greenhouse like'.
i was lead to believe that there were no polar ice caps before the flood.
is there anything in the jw literature archive which alludes to this theory or was i just told something not supported by the society?

Specific TV, Film, Music or Computer Game references deemed inappropriate?
by veen ini was down the pub tonight and my sister said she went to see 'sex and the city' in the cinema.
i gave a lol and said the title of the film sounds just like something which would be specifically singled out at 'inappropriate for true christians' in a district assembly talk just because of it's title.. .
immediately everyone started having a go saying that what i said sounded like the criticisms of an apostate and if i went to assemblies or meetings or read the literature anymore i would know that they don't single out specific shows etc anymore.. .
