The Creation of Genesis Chapter 2ff
by Doug Mason ini had long held the piece of the jigsaw puzzle which starts at genesis 2:4b – the yahwist’s creation story.
i knew that its authors had never heard of lamarck’s theory of evolution, nor had they read darwin’s “origin of species”.
the authors were addressing their own immediate culture, so i had to transport my mind to their times.

Breaking: Walt Disney Studios buys out JWs.
by neat blue dog inin an all cash transaction, disney has purchased every share in the watch tower bible and tract society of pennsylvania, inc.. their most recent in a slew of acquisitions including pixar, the muppets, marvel, lucasfilm and most recently 20th century fox, disney plans to "leverage their preexisting infrastructure and fan-base" for future content.. removing robert ciranko, who took over for don alden adams in 2014, disney is installing as president john lasseter, who already helms both disney and pixar's animation studios.
recently disgraced and on leave for allegations of inappropriate sexual conduct, disney said he was "just perfect" for the job.. plans include making yearly theatrical films with post-credits scenes as part of a crossover shared universe with preexisting watchtower film characters like caleb and sophia, the prodigal son, the roman family and the bad worldy boy from school (with nicholas king reprising and expanding his role), as well as an educational disney jr. show, "little chuck", aimed at toddler's, hosted by a young version of ct russell sporting a pretend beard..

Is it true the society were considering disfellowshipping overweight people in the 1980s?
by UnshackleTheChains ini just saw the video below and thought 'no way' !!!.
but then given the obsessive amount of rules they have, it wouldn't surprise me in the least that this was at least considered.
if there is some credibility to this, then they most certainly have gone beyond the pale!.

waton why would you want to know? so you could give that person the electronic stink eye? lol
lostwun: no, But would prefer to respond to any sticky issues, which can be done if there is a pertinent comment, post, reply, rather than just a click of the mouse. and truly, I like dislikes. nothing personal, often the issues discussed are serious enough to merit strong responses.

There is this theory that the perception of time's duration has to with how long you lived already. It could be a feature of nerve deterioration with age. If there is no aging in the PPP, that would be a terrible drag. think of how long meetings were when you were 8. In the new world we will be young again? , the drag re-introduced.

while it is still up, go to the quote of the Oct 8 Awake page 256.
It says there that members of this generation would have to be still alive until all these things have occurred.
It obviously did not occured to the writers then , and to the anointed generation generators now, that this doctrine is deeply flawed. The anointed are participants in the execution at the end, and therefore have to be dead and resurrected well before this old system winds up. and D. Splane said so. charted that for us. so:

Squirreling away old world artifact would be in order.
think of it. The only rebellion in the multiverse tolerated for 7000 years, and never allowed to develop again, would not want to be forgotten without a trace, even as a curiosity. even just one airplane. because what is the worst of the new scriptures, new world commandments coming? (check wt ppp illustrations!

how about a clinic to restore the libido and anatomy of the resurrected ones? by way of hormone treatment, and using all the useless OPRs left idle. Restoring navels, if they become fashionable among the resurrected masses? after all they would be a symbol of your past mating fitness! memories, for the children of the resurrection.
