SPECIAL SEATING ARRANGEMENTS FOR ELDERS AND ELDERETTES ARE HERE!
by AuntConnie inwe have special seating arrangements in my kingdom hall where other families know they are not to go near them!
a trouble making family would intentionally take our seats until we made their life hell by lying about them.
they left our paradise kingdom hall and now i am working on changing the color of our the seats(purple, scarlet) the elders and elderettes will be sitting on.

If a non-JW receives a pamphlet from a JW, then tosses it in the trash bin after reading it, he has rejected "The Truth" and will be destroyed at Armageddon.
by Calebs Airplane inhow many here have heard such utter stupidity??.
several years ago, during field circus, i was covering a seldom-worked territory which was a community of mostly busy working class people who usually sprung out of their homes every saturday morning to do grocery shopping, run errands, etc.. only a few would start their saturday morning doing yard work washing their cars, walking their dogs, etc.. but we would frequently catch most of the house-holders on the way out, getting into their cars.. so, needless to say, the use of pamphlets was prevalent in that territory.. on that saturday morning, i mentioned to the elder who had been paired up with me that most of these people are so busy that they probably just toss these pamphlets in the trash without ever reading them.. his response to this was something like: "well i hope they're not doing that.
that would not be a good idea.".

Another reason why 1914 is WRONG
by EdenOne ineven if 607 had been the actual date of the destruction of jerusalem .... 1914 would still be wrong.
when the wts says that "7 times" equals 2 x 3,5 times of revelation = 2 x 1260 days = 2520 days > one day / one year rule = 2520 years.. now, 2520 / 7 times means that one "time" has 360 "days".
this corresponds to the lunar year.
