Dear PSacramento, what a beautiful exercise of honesty from a believer! (I'm more or less at your "level" in reasoning at this stage).

What Haiti has meant to me
by PSacramento infirst off, to see the amazing work being done in haiti by all those recusers and doctors and volunteers and soldiers, juts makes me proud to be human and makes me wish i could do more.... the haiti situation has caused me much concern and grief, it has brought up old doubts and issues i have had for a long time with god.. this is not about eartquakes and hurricanes or any natural event that accures because it has to, it is not even about the diasters that may be part of these events.. its about the very nature of god and the crucial question of why god doesn't do something and that question leads us to one that i have thought about for a great deal of time, is god omnipotent?
is god all powerful?.
i don't think god is.. i believe in a loving and caring and compassionte father in heaven, my god is my father, a beloved and loving parent and as such, how do i reconcile god not doing something when he certianly can do it?.

Ideas for spinning the change in 'generation' for maximum impact?
by bohm inthe change in the definition of 'generation' is the first major doctrinal change in the time i has been involved with the jehovahs witnesses (allmost a full year!
), and i personally find it pretty exciting since many hear has talked about how the other changes (like the 95 one) caused the first weak wtf moments.. what i wonder about now is how (if?
) one should discuss this topic with active jehovahs witnesses for maximal effect - so to our resident mind-control gurus: what are your plans?.

What an EXCELLENT chart, Mickey Mouse! I've just emailed it to my openminded JW sister. She'll think it has been prepared by the organization to help the brothers understand the new change and will probably look into it with interest. I feel a bit mean! How I wish this opened her eyes completely (I don't think she's a long way off).

New Understanding Begets More Direction From The "Slave"
by TMS injehovah's name people have delighted in recent refinements in understanding coming through god's slave class at the direction of holy spirit.
these adjustments in thinking have at times required humility and reasonableness to be exhibited by longtime servants of jehovah.
consider, for example, the recent information showing that we could not put an exact timetable on the calling of those to serve along with christ jesus in the heavenly kingdom.

I Am Not Kool-Aid Man. Also in this issue: I Am Not Affiliated With Kool-Aid Man.
by sd-7 inthere has been some confusion over some of my recent posts, posts in which i appeared to be a "jw apologist", defending jw beliefs/scandals/etc.
this was merely an act, not intended to cause needless difficulty.
i apologize if kool-aid man--the real one--or anyone else got offended by it.

Dear Minimus and Cameo-d, I'm so surprised at your irritation. I want to humbly say I don't see any reason for it: Sd-7 made it very clear a few threads ago this was just a game he had started. And I think he is SO good at it! To me it's been really enjoyable to read his posts: there's so much intelligence and humour behind them.
It frustrates me a lot when nice people come across in a distorted way.

TMS, you are brilliant! Ha, ha, ha!
Sorry, but what do you mean by "when I read the new generational change this evening"? Has the "new understanding" you guys brought up around three months ago been confirmed???? Anything has been printed?
