david splane’s talk “put up a hard fight for the faith” was that last talk presented on the saturday of the annual convention.
this talk was to largely address apostates and restated ideas and arguments often presented before.
however, this year, watchtower is spending more time in disqualifying negative findings originating from secular courts and here is the segment of interest here: .

was talking with a gal that is most likely going back to the religion after 20 or 30 years.
we got into a discussion about having babies after "armageddon ".
she was talking about being normal ( she is practically bedridden but only in her 50's.
jesus gave a practical answer, because heavenly or terra (flesh and blood) , who would the much married lady, (the ja ja Gabor of the first century), pick for eternal bliss?
with many dead mates having payed for their sins, survivors have found very fulfilled lives with the replacements. without worries about jalousie spoiling the fun in the "world to come".

wt, the bible ? introduced the idea of "children of the resurrection" instead of "offspring of Adam".
The later can procreate, the resurrected ones not.
wt says that jesus was talking to people with an earthly hope (until pentecost) and for that reason the "no marriage", no procreation no sex desire/agony applies primarily to the earthly resurrection, but obviously, definitely to the 'spiritual' one.
In a recent funeral talk the widower was deftly spared these detailed ramifications.
i wonder if anyone can explain this.
ezekiel 34:25 says .
and i will make a covenant of peace with them, and i will rid the land of vicious wild beasts, so that they may dwell securely in the wilderness and sleep in the forests.. the land is said to be rid of vicious wild beasts, so why does the watchtower picture in the new pure worship book show a large predatory cat on the tree in this picture?
I wonder who the Watchtower artists are. Have the names of Watchtower artists ever become public knowledge?
wt featured for a while personna with large eyes , the trademark of a popular artist who had converted.
in a scene reminiscent of the fall of saigon, the usa embassy staff have been evacuated by helicopter.. for a third time in asia ( a fourth, if you count usa supported chiang kai shek's defeat in mainland china) usa supported forces have been defeated.
more than 1 trillion dollars wasted and a huge deathtoll (both sides) afghanistan is back to where it started,.
will the taliban behave differently this time ?
the takeover went too smoothly to not be an arranged affair.

the viet cong won in part because they were backed by the crude but effective russian-chinese war machine, finance, common cause.
the taliban won in part because ----.
the vietnamese had defeated the french foreign legion, then the will of the US & allies,
The Afghans had defeated the Mighty Red Army's expeditionary force, now the same collection again. so ---
there are other determined ideologies on the march.
for any who can't (like me) muster the masochism necessary to sit through an 18-or-so hour commentary on a 30 minute talk from a certain famous/infamous commentator, here is a link to a transcript from splane's saturday afternoon "apostate" talk:.

there are many topics worthy of consideration, but this particular section really stood out to me:.
wt writers, reading the bible, like Song of songs 8:8, could not imagine that the world, heavily influenced by 60 + old ladies and their dependant partners would peg a 18 year old female, 6 years into child bearing age as a child, like in child molestation.
legal marriage age of female: 12, child touching offence on 17.99 year old by 25 year old: prison time.
sad as these stories are, and some seriously disturbing, nothing compared to the catholic, boy scout legacy. not a unique wt problem. get over it.

as a non vaccinated person you represent a health risk to your fellow workers
Still waiting for someone to logically and intelligently explain exactly how that works.
FUJ: There is a big difference from the virus being carried into a fertile facility, like a meat plant, on skin that has not be scrubbed, and/or
exhaled into the air by a person that is infected and carries the replicating virus.
vaccination limits the development into that virulent stage, where it damages you and those that you potentially share the virus with via ventilation or the lack of it.
I do not judge anti vaxxers, but stay home, in isolation and create and enjoy your safe cocoon.
go read about thalidomide.
f: remember it well, people still working with no arms. yes, medical treatments can turn out to be hazardous, think of the billions paid out in the tainted blood scandal. but in the long run, vaccinations have been a boon to all of us. yes,
Thalidomide came from the same country as the novel vaccine, yet it was only a 'feel better' pill, not a live saving preventative.
as a non vaccinated person you represent a health risk to your fellow workers. your employer may be sued for letting you loose among the herd.
