On my death bed, and I am one of the oldest poster boys here, I will be content to have carried the " flame of life" i.e. genetic accumulated message well, reproduced along, perhaps introduced some longevity, late reproduction wrinkles. without me, my children, grandchildren would not flourish, but they dont need me, perhaps my money? , but that is like the deist creator, we do not need him any more, as long he lets us use what he left, useful in his absent [mindedness]. .

Hypocrisy of JW.org at this week's book study
by UnshackleTheChains ina paragraph taken from this week's study of 'gods kingdom rules.
15 jehovah’s people remain loyal to the messianic kingdom not only by refusing military service but also by respectfully declining to join in nationalistic ceremonies.
especially since the outbreak of world war ii, a wave of nationalistic fervor has swept the globe.

it was always special, driving 300 km in a litle saab 96 for holiday, far more then others of our jw congregation.

I think this is a curious reaction of the mind/brain when two unrelated fields of memories are jolted together.
I remember at the 1958 Yankee stadium sessions, in a foreign language section, a brother turned red and white in shock, terror seeing me. ... he had courted my beautiful fleshly sister (prior to both him and me converting and moving, losing contact.) He just could not fathom that we were now in this new common relationship, called "truth" panic attack.
faces? then it was the 2 stroke, now it is the diesel, made in germany. ha ha the smoke is no joke.

previously wt applied the actions of the US military might as "the Earth" during WW2 as the "swallowing" action, now they apply it to the court victories after that conflict. shifting light.

Daesh members are persecuted in all territories they operate now. so they all qualify for Merkel's open border programme. they can then not be send back, because they face danger upon returning. An active German soldier faked to be an Arab refugee, speaking french, got admitted, started receiving allowance, if he can pass, Isis can. dont even have to start growing a beard, just hide your passport. pronto.

Where were the present GB members in 1975 and their ages the
by Lostandfound in42years have passed since the great 1975 expectation delivered nothing.
blame for the expectations laid at feet of the faithful, 'it's your fault , you believed us so you are responsible for the let down'.
i have asked this previously and repeat the point, where were the current members of the governing body, 43 years ago.

dreamerdude, do you have information whether any of them actually were partaking, as of 1975, or came to that belief after the letdown? because, one feature of Jesus' description the disappointed servants, realizing that their ".. master is delaying..", (according to their calculations), is, to get drunk (with power) like the world. Could be the rush to governance be a reaction like that? : saying :
This is not happening, let's go for broke? there will be no consequences?

Yes, the denial of 1975 is incredible. In 1975 the current GB would not have had any expectations of rising as high as they have. The old order was supposed to end
dreamerdude. very good point. like in 1914, the anointed were supposed to be in heaven by 1975, called to their reward, for the battle of A. as immortal warriors. never thought of that! so:
the current GB serves so eagerly, their current life is a reprieve, icing on the cake. ruling, governing on earth first, then in heaven, in the governing body of 144k+1.

The question remains would you become slightly corrupt if you were offered a high ranking power position of a world wide rich publishing house known xyz Corporation, even if you only had a high school diploma or less ?.
Finkelstein, there is a fella like that living just an hour south of you, his name is
Bill Gates, giving his fortune to good causes, not wt, no corruption to speak of.or steve job?
