Aussie JW urban legend #48...
by TheApostleAK inanyone heard this one??
the old couple that was killed by martin bryant at the end of the port arthur massacre were a return visit (or were studying with the jw's) and that 2 jw's were walking on their way to visit them (get this...) they stopped for 5 minutes to witness to a man (supposedly this was setup by angels) or they had a doorstep study for 30 minutes and they were late (this story changes depending on who you ask...) anyway, they arrived later than they should of, only to find that martin bryant had killed the old couple and had burnt down their house and the police had arrested martin.
the story goes that had they arrived any earlier they would of been killed by martin bryant.

The Apostle witnesses mind control at work...
by TheApostleAK inabout 2 weeks ago one of my old pioneer buddies came over for a visit (he's the only jw who doesn't shun me).
i got talking about the whole naos in revelation 7:15 thing and we both started to have a debate over this.. i got out my copy of vines and showed him what it had to say about the greek word naos and he accepted it (i've shown this to 3 elders and they wont even look at the book!).
i ask him if the word naos equals the temple sanctuary which signifies heaven in revelation, where are the great crowd serving in???

The Phrase "Present Truth"
by twain30 ini am puzzled by the expression, "present truth" as used buy the wbts.
for example: "we must keep in step with present truth.
" now to me something is either true, partially true, or untrue.

Question...RE: Aussie WW2 WT Scam #2...
by TheApostleAK inthis is not a question about "the racket".....(the one that knorr made the aussie jws apologise to jehovah about)....but its about the sentence that is printed on the copyright page on all ww2 aussie watchtower books that were printed when they were banned.. .
the sentence goes (something like) "printed by barry gibb, whose usual abode is (???
)" (can't remember the exact address but it was a few doors down from the old aussie bethel at strathfield.).

NBC Meet the Press last show...
by TheApostleAK in.
anyone catch the last show with the 2 catholic priests?....
from what i can gather from the show, if they implement those changes to stop child abuse it would mean that catholics are atleast 10 steps ahead of jw's in handling it.. from ak
