Look at China, Taiwan, South Korea, japan in 1956 and now. wow.
they even trumped trump in the wall building business., building unsinkable atrcraft carriers on the red line while the world slept, silk road, bankers to the world, -----
searching instances of the word “simplify” in watchtower literature, i stumbled across this.. the asiatic mind finds it difficult to accept new ways, to simplify and to make advantageous changes.
they fear conversion and dislike others’ offering them help.
many continually live in a realm of unreality and refuse to face modern facts of life.

thanks petra and atlantis for sending the latest letter regarding the watchtowers plan for a worldwide campaign in november this year.
i am wondering what they are planning to achieve from this campaign, particularly their focus on sending the watchtower 2020 no.
2, titled "what is god's kingdom" to politicians, governments (and tribal leaders) around the world.. it would appear that this is their answer to governments who have put them in the spot light for their bad policies, particularly their handling of child abuse.
Leaving DJT the winner (of the election), and giving him an easy target to pin the blame on for any cries of a foul election.
Bc: Then let wt call that campaign:
" Make Watchtower great again "
during covid-19 crisis our hall decides to double the amount sent to hq from our local account.
the resolution is unanimously supported, no questions asked.
has anyone else had this happen?.
It is hard work to get the zombie vote on zoom.
i was wondering about this question and wanted to ask: was sin inevitable?
also, i had thought about past watchtower articles or publications related to this topic and did some research and found this from our readers ask if adam was perfect, how was it possible for him to sin?.
well, then, did god create adam with a moral weakness, so that he lacked the ability to make sound decisions or to withstand temptation?
The defense of my position? I'm only going by Watchtower and Biblical concepts
P: sorry that my flawed diction does not get my ideas across.. I was referring to the defence that God mustered against that insult to his "sovereignty " in the garden of Eden.
to prove his point God had to match a super warrior (Jesus) with billions of years of training against a youngster, (Adam) that apparently failed him. Adam in reality appreciated God's creature Eve above else)
how about an even match>? and even then god has to intervene to kill all his opponents, and will have to do it again, and again ?

Remember this is the story of creation but within the Torah, the Law of Moses.
CarM: Why then did "Eli" not avail himself of the [future] provision of a father's prerogative to cancel the consequences of his daughter Eve's blunder? I mean, "love covers a multitude of sins"
where is the fatherly love?
thousands of years of animal sacrifices, + one perfect human, and we are still mired in "sin"
P.S. With Eve's sin avoidable, we could have had perfect woman, with undamaged female chromosomes.
well , we love our wives and Daughters, so it is as perfect as it gets, talking snake stories or not.

if Adam and Eve had love for Jehovah, then they never would have sinned against him. Because after all, how did Jesus remain obedient
P: This was not a question of love, but of seduction, how to detect deception sprang upon
2 very young and inexperienced humans.
Eve should screamed, and have called Adam right away. (the 2 witness rule demands it anyway) A loving father would never have his young kids to be duped like that.
Compare Adam to Jesus: The first Adam was a newly fashioned, innocent, uneducated immature youngster.
Jesus: after his baptism, a spirit directed being, with at least 14 billion years of creative, moral experience with the best tutoring available.
what do you expect?
P.S. if the defence of your position depends of that kind of fire power, it must be on shaky grounds.

Was sin inevitable? Also, I had thought about past Watchtower article --
P: No, how about today's wt study article? Par 11, what should Eve have said to the snake? --not the wt response-- but: Just hold it a moment, let me get my husband
It was not that Eve "did not love God" as wt asserts, but
"she was deceived" and Adam too did not worry about the big J, universal sovereignty, but was blinded by that expanse of the perfect skin / shape, -- and in jeopardy of withering and dying away from him .

Were Adam and Eve not really perfect by themselves, but merely kept alive and healthy by God while they obeyed him,
AA: well, how about the tree of life then, not a forbidden fruit, was it a staple to keep them "perfect" or only a kind of medicine in case of dire emergencies?
has anyone noticed that the colour purple comes from mixing red and blue, and that the red triangle meant political prisioner and the blue triangle meant foreigner?
purple also comes from mixing pink and blue, foreign homosexual or sexual offender.
that's how the nazis wieved the bible students.
Of course all these paints, stains and dyes are made for the dying, end of the line, from substances that absorb certain incoming wavelength,
Energy, live photons' colours are different, mixing all wavelength, these light "colours "gives white, not shades of black.
reflect on that.
I remember in the late 1930s, the yellow of the star of David, by compulsion warn even outside the Camps.
Did Jw also have to wear their chosen triangle in public? dont think so.
interesting video from carl benjamin.. apparently, some philosopher is arguing that 2 + 2 doesn't always = 4; sometimes it equals 5.. this is madness, utter madness.
i'm a scientist; objective reality does exist.
the existence of gravity isn't up for debate.
The french language is very strict about this. There is no " it" and no "das". You are either female or just male without the "fe". hence le " oh la la. "
