"the constellation of the seven stars forming the pleiades appears to be the crowning centre around which the known system of the planets revolve even as our suns planet obey the sun and travel in their respective orbits.
it has been suggested, and with much weight, that one of the stars of that group is the dwelling place of jehovah and the place of the highest heavens; that is the place to which the inspired writer referred to when he said: "hear thou from thy dwelling place, even from heaven" (2 chronicles6:21) ; and that it is the place to which job referred when under inspiration he wrote: "canst thou blind the sweet influences of pleiades, or loose the bands of orion" – job 38:31"
the constellation of the pleiades is a small one compared with others which scientific instruments disclose to the wondering eyes of man.
He no longer exists is incorrect. He never existed any more than all the other man made gods did.
If you think he did, then stump up some damn good evidence. By evidence, I mean more than the edited, redacted, altered propaganda of ancient desert dwelling goat herders with their own agenda.
those of you fading- with the memorial approaching are you going to appease family?
not going and making up an excuse?
acting like your going but not really?.
A memorial about 6 years ago was my last ever meeting, i went to appease my mother, but she made a good point in that i had missed 3 months of meetings by then and to miss the memorial would seem too final and would send the wrong message.
I reluctantly agreed with that assessment and went, i sat in the back row with other misfits and had a laugh, the mental relief of knowing it was my last ever meeting was fantastic.
I havent set foot in a kingdumb hall since and intend to keep it that way.
Freedom is worth it.

God that bad lip reading was hilarious...
the topic of circumcision has been brought up a few times recently.
then i wondered... .
how do women really view circumcision?
I wasnt circumcised but have a small foreskin so i have the best of both worlds.
The stimulation angle is that with an exposed glans will get desensitised a bit by being rubbed on clothing etc over time, but it is very minimal and probably an advantage sexually to have it dialled back a little anyway.
As long as the man keeps it all cleaned properly it really wont make a difference. there's the aesthetics obviously and i think a small foreskin with exposed glans is the right combo functionally and aesthetically, but then i am biased.
what do you think of this show and is it a good way to discuss end times eschatology topics with my wife?
somehow i imagine the new heaven and new earth being a let down full of flawed characters, especially if they're jws.
It started so well and full of promise, i quit watching it about episode 5.
No, i doubt this would help in the slightest to wake anyone up.

Following the link in the OP you can see it is for sale again, and was listed for sale in 2014 as well.
Don't know who currently owns it though.
No, that is archived material, (although i can see how it gives the impression it is for sale again now.)
they are doing it again.. a new group trying to boost membership is adding people without permission.. "ex-jehovah's witnesses aka behind the veil of jw.org" added me this afternoon.
they were bragging about how quickly they grew to over 2000 members.
i quickly exited the group.
One reason I am not on FB.
My sentiments exactly.
i have known all of them over the last 15 years, talked at length with them, and knew what their wishes were, the copyright holder and spouse spent even more time with them socially and helping them set up their arrangements for when ray and cynthia passed.
i don't believe that anyone else on this board or others was a confidant.
there is no need to prove it to anyone but the copyright office which is satisfied with this.
Are we there yet?
has anyone seen the film dont know if its been discussed on here, im just watching it now with my dad he is an elder, he went to do something else less than a 1/4 way through the film, he doesnt usually do that.
then he questioned why i choose to watch it not suspiciously i think he was just curious.
anyway its a film worth watching, its based on true events about the coverup of child abuse within the catholic church.
that’s what the boston globe asked about the catholic church abuse policies… should the same be asked about jw abuse policies?.
