With all the war talk from wt writers it is logical that they put their money/ designs where their mouth is and build where survival is most likely, in cave like structures well above flood level. I would do it given a choice.

...AN ELEPHANT in my pajamas (an alternative way of seeing the world)
by Terry inan elephant in my pajamas.
by the age of 2, i began noticing comedy was a verbal violation of logic.. in fact, groucho marx taught me an important way of applying my thinking in terms of logic and humor.
by the age of 2, i had been taught to develop a bias toward “what was obviously logical” and to omit all else.. that was a social bias.

An avid writer on this forum suggested Wt bible research operates like an open for all crossword puzzle. here are some suggestions:
word for a 160 year long lasting generation: "overlapping"
word for arrival of 2075*: "soon"
2 words for the anointed generation that goes to heaven at the outset of the GT, but passes away only after Armageddon: " Mission impossible"
* 2 centenarians overlapping by 20 years since 1914. .
Elephants, even in pyjamas, have a good memory, we shall not forget.

Is the governing body of Jehovah's Witnesses REALLY the "faithful and discreet slave" of Matt. 24:45-47?
by Roger Kirkpatrick inthesis: when someone who is given a responsibility mistakes that responsibility for authority, bullying is very likely to occur.. jesus spoke an illustration recorded at matthew 24: 45-51 which well illustrates this thesis.. jesus asked, “who really is the faithful and discreet slave whom his master appointed over all his domestics, to give them their food at the proper time?
happy is that slave if his master on arriving finds him doing so.
truly i say to you, he will appoint him over all his belongings.

crossword puzzle where everyone agrees to solve the puzzle together and abide by the same rules. If you don’t, you are not part of the group.
Now, that is a great illustration of wt/jws at work, resulting in everlasting life.
false. it is really 8 million spectators watching the 8 players trying to correct their always wrong results, and staking their 8 000 008 lives on it. Take the example #1
the current answer for " number for the generation of 1914 to end ?" answer: 2075 (2x age 101) - ( overlap 20 years x2) =162+1914 ~ 2075. -- example #2, wt answer:
"word for 52 to 162 years?" wt answer: soon. wt writers are gambling with peoples lives, not funny, with stiff penalty attached, "Judgement will start withe the [socalled} house of God" aka beth-el.

Wt includes all JW in this case not only the fds that God uses exclusively.
you said it.
wt has turned millions into false prophets, by making them repeat all the false teachings in the d2d and other ministry features.
Can think of the stink of the "Superior Authorities" debacle, shame on us. and
dragging the holy name down with it

How do Witnesses reconcile Isaiah 43:10 with John 1:1
by Vanderhoven7 insomething does not compute.
you are my witnesses,”declares jehovah, yes, my servant whom i have chosen, so that you may know and have faith in me and understand that i am the same one.before me no god was formed, and after me there has been none.
isaiah 43:10. in the beginning was the word, and the word was with god and the word was god.

Interesting that the term "Word" is used to point to a means of creation, The "Word" also referring the JC in his pre-earthen life. Word involving acoustics in "speaking" structures into existence. Add to that, that
"wisdom" is involved in the creative process too, as a nom de guerre for JC again.
No wonder it is stupendous work of art, the universe.

We don't know
or some claim that, but as one of the wt F&DS members said in Australia : " It would be presumptuous to say that Wt is the sole channel used by god ", or words to that effect.
It is easy to blame the deity for wt's failings, flailing. wt doctrine is: the wt was appointed in 1919 to be the fds, given all the monopoly authority to feed the domestics. You pay with your life if you doubt or disagree.

support the nazis in what? If everybody knew about, and dwelled on the atrocities against the Jewish people, the Soviet female prisoners of war, many would have been less enthusiastic about nazi actions. but remember, Germany was also facing extinction, by an enemy that we now know was bent of eliminating a nationality if needed be. So, there should be a distinction between the extreme nazi ideology and the right to legitimate warfare that every nation claims for its defence. now,
what does "covid" to do with it? If you are faced with extinction you will take the vaccine? btw, if you can get the shingles shot, take it, better than feeling you have been shot, wherever it hits.

"I agree with WT interpretation" Fisherman,
When all is said and done, !914, derived from these dates, is a classic wt false prophecy, because they announced, predicted that in that year, the world would end and they, anointed all, would have a rapid ascend to heaven, clearing the way.
Even 3 years later they still were stunned by that failure, denying it, by going at it again, with another like follow up,
" The World has ended, Millions now living will never die." they will go down, or up with that.
The evidence is cast in stone, or charcoal.

Missing Monthly Broadcast - May 2015
by Listener inyoutuber millstone research has done a video on the fact that the may 2015 monthly broadcast is no longer on jw org.. https://www.jw.org/en/library/videos/#en/categories/studiomonthlyprograms.
the broadcast was presented by lett who mentions he had the backing of the other gb members regarding his comments.. the broadcast is basically about soliciting jws for funds as well as other 'valuable things' for the organisation.
this is the one where he claims that the money flowing out was more than the money flowing in.

wt changing their publishing history is an old fact, yearly bound volumes often differed from the original printed copy. In science (which wt writers compare their bible research compare too, sjust one instance like that would sink your career, or tacking boat.
