Heavenly Life Anyone?
by ISP innot the norm is it for a jw?
basically we told that were not going there even if we thought/felt differently.. 1935 seems to have been a threshold of sorts with the id'ing of the 'great crowd' of revelation 7 as an earthly group.
not saying i have the answers but i believe the position to be far from clear cut.. i wouldn't like to be on the wrong side of this rebuke!.

Pedophiles and Christianity
by ISP inyou wouldn't think there is a link but there does seem to be.
check out this site.. http://www.skeptictank.org/cabuse1.htm.
it is no surprise that such twisted individuals appear in the 'truth' but i wouldn't say the prevalence of such ones is any greater in the wts than in other christian belief systems.. they all fail miserably.

Brain-Numbing Food
by ISP incheck this out.......... *** w52 2/1 80 jehovah's theocratic organization today ***.
12 now some may ask, should we accept as from the lord and true the food provided through the discreet slave, or should we withhold acceptance until we have proved it for ourselves?
if we have gained our present understanding of the bible by feeding at the table set by the slave, if we have been thereby freed from false doctrines and built up in the clean and undefiled worship of god and given a new world hope, we should have some confidence in the slaves provisions.

Keeping a healthy bank account?
by ISP inwhat do you make of the point in the feb 1 2001 wt, page 18 parag15.. 'let us accrue something positive in a spiritual sense each day, building, as it were, a healthy, spiritual bank account.'.
good works are good works but does their value accumulate some how as funds do in a bank account?.
i thought this was an unfortunate illustration/metaphor.

by ISP intunnel of doubts.
this subject was discussed in the 1. feb.01 wt.
it is an interesting expression, tunnel of doubts as if several doubts merge to produce an overall tunnel from which it could be difficult to emerge.
