The Official What happened at the Memorial thread
by truthseeker ini thought rather than everyone start their own topic relating their experience of attending the memorial, we keep it simple and have just one thread.
if anything, it's saves bandwidth.. i will be going to the memorial tonight and will post my experiences afterwards.. all the other memorials i attended, i was an active jw, so this will be my first experience as a submarine witness.
it's weird being on the other side so to speak.

What Really Happened During Christ's Passover
by snowbird inchrist was crucified on what is known today as wednesday on the roman calendar - and was resurrected three days and three nights later, exactly as he said that he would.. it is also very important to keep in mind that god's biblical calendar days begin and end at sunset, hence the reason that, for example, in the biblical listing below, nisan 14 is equated with sunset tuesday to sunset wednesday (as it occurred that year, and has occasionally done in some years ever since).. sunset monday to sunset tuesday (nisan 13).
preparation of the room where christ would observe passover with the apostles, tuesday afternoon.. matthew 26:18-19, mark 14:13-16, luke 22:9-13. sunset tuesday to sunset wednesday (nisan 14).
christ observed his passover (also known as "the last supper") with the apostles, tuesday evening just after sunset.. matthew 26:20-29, mark 14:17-25, luke 22:14-38, john chapters 13-17. sermon: how to observe passoverat about 10 p.m. tuesday evening, they went out and entered the garden of gethsemane where the messiah prayed and was then arrested by the mob.. matthew 26:36-56, mark 14:32-52, luke 22:39-53, john 18:1-11. see also malchus.

or should i say wt light getting brighter teaching?
they had to change 1874 to 1914 since it didn't have anything to be backed by but 1914 they at least based it on 537bc minus this plus that blah blah blah we got 1914 (hide the pyramid measurments) :) if 1914 comes and goes they will have to do something major!

Atheism as a psychological phenomenon.
by BurnTheShips intheism in its various forms has been since the beginning subjected to psychological analysis and treated as a phenomenon of the human mind.
perhaps it is time to turn the lens and examine the psychological reasons for atheism as well.
this approach should be especially inoffensive to many atheists/materialists since in their worldview, all phenomena are reducible to natural causes.

BLOOD FRACTIONS - what if all JWs knew they are a Matter of Conscience???
by insearchoftruth inif each and every jw were to accept fractions as a matter of conscience, how many of the senseless deaths could be prevented.. .
i have no idea on what is normally given to a person in a transfusion, but from some of the reading i have done, whole blood transfusions, which are strictly forbidden, are very rare.
really how dangerous is the current blood policy...if all jehovahs witnesses were made aware of what is actually allowed and accepted the fractions allowed?
