Franklin D. Roosevelt: "...only thing we have to fear is fear itself."
Patrick Henry: "Give me liberty or give me death."
Oompa:"...food tastes the same..."
Absolute genius! ( Not to mention LMAO funny! )
Bravo! Way to cut through the B.S. oompa!
i really have never understood prayers too well or how they are answered or not.
i really think it is more of a self-help type excercise.
aren't there some really funny experiences in the yearbooks on prayers answered!?

i know the end of mankind was supposed to happen in 1914 with the end of the gentile times.
true christians were supposed to all fly to heaven.
now i forget when fds figured out he came in 1914 instead of 1874. and when did we figure out btg was felled?
So much for "...every eye will see him, and those who pierced him..." ( Rev. 1:7 )
i found this while perusing through old golden ages at the new york public library.
it is so patently ridiculous and offensive, i thought i'd just post the thing without comment.

As always Narkissos, you are right on the money! I've noted the same thing.

Wait a minute everyone....Surely it wasn't Drunkaford who wrote that drivel. After all, the guy knew the location of Jehovahs throne! ( Pleiades galaxy...see Reconciliation p.14)
BTW Narkissos, regarding your question....The members of one of the Kingdom Halls that I attended were of the opinion that by constantly ( and I mean constantly ) slamming the U.S. they were displaying their neutrality........I'm not talking about the usual comments about the superiority of Gods Kingdom over any human government, rather, outright anti-U.S. stuff.
have been reading so much on this site...it is not even funny anymore.
i am now into "the best of"...a gold mine of personal experiences!
while reading, a question often comes to mind.
In my case it was freedom from the Witlesses that allowed me, for the first time in my life, to actually begin to study the Bible in an objective manner. That study has destroyed my faith in the Bible as being anything more than the writings of men trying to explain things that everyone wondered about, but couldn't explain.
I'm speaking for myself, of course, and I mean no disrespect to those of you who still believe in the Bible.
Let me put it this way Black Swan...
Iron Rod responds, "Uh...well actually Jehovah, now that you mention it, yes you could make it much clearer. Like how this book, supposedly inspired by you; the Supreme Being, perfect and omnipotent, contains so many contradictions, redactions, and outright absurdities. How is it that your book, that is supposed to be the one source of communication from yourself to mankind, is preserved in a hodge-podge bunch of weathered manuscripts containing more than 200,000 variations? How is it that, since you supposedly chose to confuse human languages a few thousand years ago, making the translation of this all important book into the various languages extremely difficult, you expect us to see clearly what you want of us? I'm sorry Jehovah, but I just can't help but think that the Creator of the universe, humans, and language could have made it a hell of a lot clearer."
Let me say again, it truly is not my intention to offend anyone. These are just the thoughts that I am having now.

i have a question..... this question is open to everyone, but as you will see, input from jwd's resident scholars ( like narkissos and leolaia ) will be essential.. in the account found in 1 samuel chapter 28, we read about sauls infamous visit to the spirit medium of en-dor.
at sauls request she summons the spirit of samuel.. in the notwelltranslated, the name samuel is written in quotation marks like this..."samuel.
" this, of course, gives the reader the impression that this is not really samuel.
But, but Narkissos....
That would mean that they were more truthful than the "Fitful and Disgruntled Slave."
Say it ain't so!

Wow, that was fast!
Thanks, Narkissos.
And once again, your brevity is most powerful!
