New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures...
by Joliette inif i'm not mistaken, werent the committee of brothers who translated this bible: nathan knorr, albert scheoder, george gangas, fredrick franz.
wasnt fredrick franz the only scholarly person (or somewhat scholarly) person who was 'somewhat qualified' to translate any type of biblical greek, hebrew, etc?.

So...is David Splaine the new bible scholar (or Fred Franz) of the WTBTS?
by Joliette inwas watching the faith dvd yesterday, and he seems like a smarty pants know it all?
he doesnt seem like a hard hitter or bad ass or anything, but it seems like the kinda guy, that if you went out in field service with, that he would constantly correct you, and have smart ass comments to make about the householders who arent intrested in owning a watchtower or awake..

Am I the only one who felt sorry for adam and eve?
by Joliette inthe witnesses always blame everything on adam and eve (besides satan).
for some reason, when i used to look at the my book and bible stories when i was little, i used to feel bad for adam and eve?
its kinda like getting mad at a baby for making a mistake.

i know there are a lot of white people on here so why is it that there are.
