I guess "God's Organization" has the authority(balls) to print whatever they want whenever they want. Someone in the "ivory tower" has got to see the hypocracy in that Awake! article. It's so blatantly obvious.

one of the reasons is that people are disturbed by what is happening in their churches.
yes, millions of persons have been shocked to learn that things they were taught as being vital for salvation are now considered by their church to be wrong.
have you, too, felt discouragement, or even despair, because of what is happening in your church?

Welcome, Gene!
Congratulations! You won the "Ignoramus of the week" award.
Remember, being stupid is not ignorant, but choosing to be ignorant is stupid.

this is sort of a take-off of the "what should the wt do" thread.. i need to get together a board of directors and elect a president and officers.
we need to figure out a doctrine, a manifesto, and a set of disciplinary rules.
we need to figure out a way to fund our new movement.
Xandit,
You got it! You're the minister of discipline and bananarama, er whatever that is. Let's hear your ideas.

...i asked questions which you cannot answer because regardless of how you answer them it will demonstrate your position and that is something that you cannot afford to reveal.. .
you are greatly mistaken.
MDS,
regarding Isaiah 49: 1-6,
I am the one spoken of above
Wow. Do you really think you are a manifestation of a particular being spoken of in the bible? REALLY? You definately are out on a limb. I mean, how do you respond to someone who thinks they are a biblical character?
There are some people on this board, that have become greatly familiar with what I teach. They know I can answer.
I would like to see these ones come to your defense.

in view of the recent announcement and subsequent discussion regarding the fate of h20 i am looking at buying the domain and all the archives of h20 from rick.. i believe i can get it hosted at a local asp with which i have a great relationship.
this is where i need your creative genius.
i believe we could generate greater revenue from banners that are geared to the audience (kickboxing 101 lessons might be useful but ...).
Just voicing my support, Kismet. Be it non-profit or commercial. I'd support it.
TR
BTW, Simon, get ready for another rush! The second coming?! I like the format on your forum better. H20, the way it is, is a pain for me to read.

dear friends,.
i received word from a friend who has spoken with infonex that all shell accounts at cyberpass including h2o's will be terminated this coming wednesday, february 7, 2001. all information on our site will be wiped clean on that date.
There are several posters on H20 that I'd like to see at Simon's forum. Wherever they go, I want to know where.
They include:
Farkel(my fave)
Gedanken(another fave)
You Know(the JW you love to hate)

this tale was sent to me by someone on one of the e-mail lists i belong to.
i found it quite thought provoking.
perhaps you'll enjoy it, also.
Interesting.
This tale has much in common with Zecharia Sitchin's theories of the beginnings of humans on earth.

Scorpion,
All the department heads go through me to ok their particular ideas and/or doctrines. The beauty is that I will ok everything! Each department head/prophet/Goddess is responsible for their actions. I trust their discretion implicitly! They are the CHOSEN! We CAN'T be wrong!
Don't worry, scorpion. RHW is just a figurehead. She's beautiful, arrayed in her royal vestments. She directs the festivals of worship, but she's an icon...an idol that we can bow down to. She has no real power. However, the rank and file don't know this, so to them she's a GODDESS! That's where she gets her power! That's where we all get our power...from the ignorance of the masses.
Mommy,
You now are in charge of the education and well-being of the children. You and you alone will dictate the corriculum. I encourage splinter groups. So, if you want to start a religion, it's fine by me. Just remember where you learned everything! This IS GOD's org., after all!
TW,
I encourage baptisms and rebaptisms and more baptisms. I need to keep the baptismal shower personell busy. Actually, I think they have the best job.
RHW,
Maybe I misread your Goddess application. You are a REAL Goddess? Man, it's hard to find good help. Whoever hired those chimps to process the apps needs to get rid of them!
