Help from 60's/70's music fanatics... if any are still alive (joking)
by confusedandalone inabout 5 years ago an older friend of mine passed away.
this guy was into music in an almost unhealthy fashion which was the one thing we really had in common.
he died in 2008 and when he passed his wife said he wanted me to have all of his old music.

Planning your RETIREMENT. Can anyone remember Watch Tower encouraging, in anyway, it's members to plan ahead for this eventual reality?
by LoisLane looking for Superman ini cannot think of one article written for jehovah's witnesses that deals with this important issue.. your retirement.. .
the governing body makes sure everyone looks after the gb's needs.
the gb will be moving to their new lakeside estate in 3 years.. what about everyone else below the 8 gb and their wives???.

I remember being kina' blown away(and annoyed) back in the late 90's when during one of the Watchtower studies, they used that scripture that says something about "Be wise just as the nations are wise" and they were encouraging us to be wise by putting away money for an inheritance for our children. I had always been (quietly) investing in my work pension and IRA's (thank goodness) up to that time even though the 1914 generation was in their 80's and not expected to live much longer. Since I had also been (falsely) told since childhood that I'd never graduate from High School before the end came, I wasn't about to be burned again. Anyway, here they were, after all their talk about the closeness of the end, now making it sound like the future of this system wasn't as doubtful as they once thought it was, so ya better put something away for your kids so that in the likely event the new system didn't arrive before you kicked off....you'd have something to leave your them. I remember turning to my wife during this study and she just rolled her eyes and looked disgusted.
Or trust in the organization died a "death by a thousand cuts" and this was just one of them.

Studying the Watchtower and thinking you're a Bible Student is like reading the Readers Digest Condensed Version of the U.S. Space Program and then thinking you're an expert in Space Travel.

I think they're trying to shake off the Watchtower...
by gingerbread inwe had another couple over this weekend.
after taking a reasonable hike in the woods, we came back to the house, made a fire and began to talk a bit.
these folks are long time friends of ours and are (like us) slowly easing out of the kingdom hall.

An interesting thought was raised by the hubby. He says that the Org. seems to be distancing itself from it's Watchtower past - erasing C.T. Russell from the Faithful Slave 'class', putting up banners on the buildings in New York with JW.org (instead of Watchtower),
Maybe they're funneling thier WTBTS funds /real estate holdings, into a newly formed organization/corperation so that if they loose the Candace Conti verdict (and others) they wont loose their shirts . With the new JW.org branding, they might be able to distance themselves somewhat from their own past and tainted image of WATCHTOWER if the child molestation appeal is lost.

Overheard some JWs on the train today- going to be interesting this year
by lrkr incruising down to the city this afternoon we were behind a group of j-dubs on the train.
part of the conversation centered around the "generation" teaching.
all of them clearly trying to wrap their heads around it.

The worlds religions are populated to the hilt by individuals believing all sorts of nonsense, going through painstaking ritual and turning a blind eye to all manner of things. Although they think they are different, JW's are the same and there will be plenty of them who will continue to overlook the fact that 100 years has passed since 1914 and will blindly press on rather than acknowledge that they have been heading down a blind alley with their foot on the gas.

Never tried that but I imagine they'd say that by not turning in your time you're not "being obedient to those who are taking the lead among you" as the Bible says to.

By imagining yourself as part of something bigger than yourself, you in effect see the horses and chariots.
I imagined myself as part of something bigger and saw the horses and chariots but eventually the horses threw thier shoes and the wheels fell of the chariots when I found out that the thousands of pieces of literature I spent printing at Bethel and were spread from door to door all over the world by other inaginitave individuals, contained information that was incorrect an would be completely dropped or drastically changed in the future.

So the title of Rutherfords talk back in 1925 should have been....Millions ,who aren't born yet, but will come to know millions who are now living... will never die.
