Well the lawyers and publishers basically took advantage of a senile old lady to get the book published.
Also, Watchman is quite literally a rough draft of what became To Kill A Mockingbird.
I will not purchase or read it.
are you a fan of harper lee's "to kill a mockingbird"?
i read the book as a child and have read it many times since.
miss lee obviously wrote the book to entertain us, and she accomplished that.

as a matter of fact, he plans on bringing out info to the lowell city council as to how much of a positive impact the conventions were, that were held in the city.
evidently, a lot of money was brought in to the city's restaurants and lodging.. go witnesses!!!

well, our sister congregation just had their co visit this past week.
on saturday afternoon, i was talking to a couple of ministerial servants in that congregation and they stated that an unmarried brother is not fulfilling to the max what jehovah wants of us.
they stated that the co went on a tirade that if you are unmarried you are being selfish and not following what jehovah wanted for mankind since he created eve as a compliment for the man.
what we can read in the wt 10/15/2015... they have really no shame!.
.
a friend just texted that she just now received a generic phone message from the witnesses to check out the 'best christian resource online at jw.(b)org!'.
so this is what they're doing now?
spam voicemail is going to make people like them better??
it's absolutely not sanctioned. some dumb rogue pioneer who just found a creative way to get time
ok bear with me for second on this one..... i was just reading the other day about "pitchf/x", a type of technology that can accurately track whether a pitch in baseball is a ball or a strike.. a couple of analysts went over 6 years of baseball data.. it turns out that umpires are wrong about balls & strikes about 14% of the time.
what they call a "ball" is really a "strike" about 13% of the time, and what they call a "strike" is really a "ball" about 15% of the time.
here is the article.. that's at the major league level.. umpires have to work their way up to the major leagues, just as players do.
the solution is robot umpires
and if you think Pitch F/X is awesome, check out Field F/X. It's data on EVERY player during EVERY play. It's terabytes of data per game. It's mind blowing.
it will be interesting to see what will happen with the "beloved" 501c3 tax exempt status which the churches hold so dearly onto.
the first-century christians met in homes.
they did not have exemption from taxes to the governments.
what do i mean well when there was a famine in israel david inquired of jehovah, jehovah told him that the gibeonites were not being treated right so until david fixed the problem of how they were being treated jehovahs blessing was withheld from the nation jehovah does not change until we start treating people right by not shunning them and anouncing sinners names from platform as no longer jw jehovah will not bless the efforts of those promoting unloveing behavior
