now they start inviting to their "commemorate the death of jesus" event.
it always makes me a bit sad.
i don’t think i could endure to watch it myself today.

about 30 years ago Witnesses started treating the Memorial like Easter & Christmas wrapped up in one. People would buy a fancy new outfit just for the Memorial (Easter Sunday outfit) and then big groups would go out toChristmasdinner after the Memorial was over.
Yep, how right you are

so apparently robert hendricks the spin doctor of the wt society has been proudly telling news channels how wonderful the wt org has been during the 2 years of the pandemic, checking in with each and every member to meet their needs on a weekly basis.. except, based on the comments of former jw friends on facebook, it's news to most of them since they are screaming out that they were totally neglected by the elders/ms throughout most of that period.
a couple even said that because of being ignored by the congregation during this time, that they have walked away completely.
So the Borg claims this sanctimonious drivel:

He despises the churches of Christendom, yet those places have been doing exactly what he claims is special in the borg. And they do it without being told to.
Hypocrites!

I feel sorry for the kids, if they don’t know now what is going on, sure as heck one day they will.
i just discovered a clipping from an old new york times article on the release of the first nwt volume.
it was tucked inside a nwt volume i purchased on ebay.
i thought it interesting and made a pdf of it.

Looks to me more like a news release from the convention’s News Service dept.
for those still involved in the april 15 event, under the full evening moon.. "do this in memory of me " right, and follow the instructions.
3) "small number cherish a heavenly hope" but at the last supper, all still had an earthly hope, even jesus spoke in earthly terms about the future.
4) "spoke to them about 2 covenants, the new covenant and the kingdom covenant" a new one to me, note the missing capitalization for the new covenant, the one for all, for forgiveness of sins, the blood covenant, the wine symbolism, but implied [wrongly ] meaning of the kingdom rule promises.
to show by comparing the scriptures to the practises,
The scriptures they hold to are a corruption of the accepted text and their additions in the NWT make it a perversion.
so many have been manipulated and abused using their spurious dogma.
The Borg likes to herald “Get out of her, my people” directed at “Christendom” but appropriately it should be addressed to the Borg.

twisting the occasion into an opportunity to draw allegiance to themselves:
Really, should anyone care what they do?
We know they’re wrong, they have subverted the gospel to claim authority that simply is invalid.
With their invalid authority they have abused the flock that they have gathered.
Have no part of it - it was all a bad dream

Hiya Kate !
have received news of the passing of alan fuerbacher today having just turned 70 years of age.
alan was an earlier and frequent poster on this forum and was a strident critic of wt bible chronology.
i enjoyed the continuous debate on matters relating to 607 bce and will miss his intellectual contributions and his scholarship even though i disagreed with much of his contributions on this subject.
Ahh, Farkel!
Remembering times past and fondly to the names of yesteryear.
