Goodbye to JWD ... hello to JWN !
by Simon inas i announced some time ago, jwd as it is will not continue .... ... but .... it's clear from people's comments that they do like the site and many would like it or something else like it to continue.. one issue was the forum software that was self-developed and not really in a good state to hand-over to anyone but i've been working on that and can now reveal the first release of what will probably be called jwn (son of jwd):.
http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/.
it is still work-in-progress so not all features are enabled yet but it will allow you to browse the site in a similar way to this one and it is pointing at the same database (although because of the way the caching works, new posts made on this site won't appear immediately).

I thought NOBODY would ever rebuild or live in Babylon?....but.....
by oompa incheck the last city here....i googled "babylon, iraq population'....and other things on the city, and one archaeological site wrote that many archaeologists urged sadam to not build and grow modern babylon directly over many of the old ruins....but he did it anyway.
i saw a news item about their new mayor!.....jw's used to say this could never ever happen.
is this indeed basically the same city?....only 90 miles south of baghdad?...................oompa.

New technique to increase your ministry hours without doing any ministry.
by DisconnectingDrone inok, this idea came to me the other day, technically it is totally by the book.
1) ask the map servant for a territory map near your home.
2) go out at midnight down the said street; and everyone will be in bed-or at least have some curtains closed.

all scientific discoveries are lies made up for money!
by DoomVoyager ini was talking to a dub the other day about how the genesis account cannot be true, becuase archeologists have found hundreds - maybe thousands - of human remains and artifacts that predate 4000 b.c.. their response?
"they're all lies made up to get research grants.".
you can't make this stuff up, folks..

Professional Counseling vs. "Bible Study"
by insearchoftruth inwe found out that my stepson had committed a crime against our neighbor, having stolen a significant amount which would amount to larceny.
the neighbor has agreed to not call the police due to the desire to not have a record pinned against our child, with the agreement that we obtain counseling for him.
my wife has still not sought out the professional counseling, but has him instead doing a 'bible study' with a member of the congregation she is studying with (happens to be the husband of the gal she is studying with) reading various chapters of the young people ask 2 book.

"we are so close to the end cause morals are worse than ever"....NOT!
by oompa inmy jw-ex-wife told me this the other day...the one df'd three times and reproved twice that i know of (oh the irony of speaking of morals)...she was going on about evil movies and the violent cage boxing/wrestling events (sorry i forget the name of these).....well i went off!.....i asked her how can she say that when in jesus day and shortly after....the romans...in real life let huge animals devour humans as they tried to fight off the animals!.....and they watched real people hack each other to bits withs swords!.....and that in live plays people would have sex and such.....and these were open public events.....not things in dark warehouses in third world countries......she just got mad............oompa.
there was even "temple prostitutes" in the bible....now that could get me back to the meetings.
