The GENERATION explanation is now a BOLD FACE LIE
by scotoma inwhen i first heard about the new "generation" explanation i was confused because i didn't see clearly how they were explaining it.. now it looks like they finally figured it out for themselves and it is no longer confusing.. it is now a simple, ignorant, bold face lie.. this is from the january 1st watchtower.
(and i hope to hell someone from writing gets wind of this).
paragraph 15 page 31 blue stands for the exact words in the watchtower.

2014 Year Text "Let Your Kingdom Come"
by scotoma inguy pierece mentioned the years text as let your kingdom come and then dropped the line "it's been 100 years since the kingdom was established in the heavens".. that was it.
wouldn't the 2013 corp meeting be the appropriate time to be discussing that milestone - instead of waiting til 2014 is 3/4 over next october.. obviously they don't want to dwell on the 100 years because it really puts the old light about the generation in a "bad light".
doesn't a centennial deserve a proper celebration?.

Bible Hoarders.
by scotoma ini was really turned off by the segment of the meeting dealing with the watchtower's bible collection.
i thought i was at the antique road show on pbs.. what was that all about?
it was so bizzarre for these "annointed" ones to get off on collecting these old printed bibles.. you can get excellent scans of just about any historical document.. looked like a personal hobby of sanderson the nararator.. there is something idolatrous and at the very least a sick display of the hoarding instinct in the glee coming from getting their "paws" on these treasures.. what a disappointment to see a religion started by people who wanted to abandon all earthly things and join christ in the air, fawn over these relics carefully preserved as a memorial they can fondle.. are they really in the museum business now?

UNDESERVED kindness or DESERVED kindness?
by scotoma ini'm tired of hearing people grovel before their "benevolent" creator.. recently i was listening to a jw relative express regrets over their rebellious life-style when they were young.
then came that phrase:.
"i'm so greatful for jehovah's undeserved kindness and that he can accept me with my sinful past.".

Berta, Bonnie and the Judge
by scotoma inhas anyone edited the information about this incident in one coherent treatment?.
to me it is one of the most amazing pieces of evidence against the claims of divine selection of the watchtower leaders/writers as the "faithful and discreet slave".. since mere congregation overseers are to be "irreprehensible...a man presiding over his own household...not a drunken brawler...fine testimony from people on the outside" how much more would you expect the overseer of the global congregation to meet those qualifications.
true, rutheford is long gone but he still needs to be repudiated as an example of someone who "did not walk with god".. larc has passed, farkel is fairly exhausted.
