Thank you, Ann! That is a high endorsement coming from you.
I learned a whole bunch from y'all three years ago (about this time October/November 2011). It helped me see TTATT.
can someone explain in easy to understand language what this argument is all about.
i am not that clever.
i am hoping to talk to the elders about this as well as whoever is willing to talk about it on here.

looking at all the doctrinal teachings over the last five years, it's almost impossible for any person of conscience who originated such doctrine to do a complete u-turn and change it when the passage of time has proved beyond doubt that doctrine is no longer credible.. i say this with reference to the generation of 1914. they were so sure.
it was part of the awake!
masthead for decades that those who saw the events of 1914 would also see the great tribulation.. .

a letter has just been read out indicating that effective immediately, witnesses are no longer to use the s-8 slip known as the "house to house" record slip, as well as the s-43 "please follow up" slip (usually used for foreign language people).. the letter stated that this is because of the changes in privacy laws etc that are becoming common in the world today.. i will try and get a copy of the full letter and post it asap.. .
What branch was this letter for?
I wonder how not-at-homes would be tracked. They were the bread and butter of getting time in.
wanted to say hello to you all.
i am new to the forum and just wanted to introduce myself.
i was raised a witness, never baptized (yay) and am married to a lovely baptized witness of jehovah.. i had been trying to get back into it due to both our families being j dbs but just never could get it into my heart.
Welcome, mikeypants! I think you made the right decision. Keep researching both sides from an objective distance.

I wonder if the Campos case is the new precedent.
it amazes me!.
witnesses go on about how "blessed we are to have the website and all the content from jehovah etc".
but i have been noticing the parallels between jws and the mormons!.

Add Scientology to the list of who is copying who...
this is a rumor i heard back in november, it comes to me third or fourth-hand.
feel free to poke holes.
i have many doubts about this myself.
When I look at people like Anthony Morris and Stephen Lett, it makes me doubt some of this. They seem to believe their own hype.
It makes me wonder. If this were just a business looking to survive and increase profit, why would they let these folks on the stage?
And why not let Loche take the stand?
Sometimes it seems that they are bumbling at the wheel of the ship as they head toward the lighthouse.

it was 36 years ago today.. the watchtower has caused far more deaths due to the blood transfusion ban and the suicides from disfellowshipping.
unfortunately, these deaths are mostly invisible to the public, since they didnat occur at once and in one location.. .
Gregor, I’m glad it worked out. A bullet dodged...more than once.
