"The Watchtower, on the other hand, needs to provide a plausible explanation as to how Jesus selected an entity to be his Faithful and Discreet Slave in 1919 that didn't exist until 1971. I don't envy them."
There were references prior to 1971 that stated that the board of directors was the governing body.
So the board of directors from the time of their release from prison and then the Cedar Point assembly was the FDS.

Yes, the Big Bang Theory requires God to be in it. Who started the bang. As if sound could be heard in space.
my taste in music is pretty eclectic.
i was listening to some andrea bocelli this afternoon and found this on youtube.. .
oh my god!!!.
We Thank You Jehovah.
And there is no such thing as Christian Rock
i was curious what might be some good things to say if i am questioned by the elduurs about my decline in fs.
anything too honest may get me a jc (although that would be for the best in the end..) the co visit is this week so they may be getting more agressive than usual.
Gas costs too much.
Got to work

A One World Government is the only way to go.
The other countries need to adopt the US constitution and then becomes states of the Union.

Of course. In the beginning, God created the heavens and earth

was just wondering how many gay exjw's were on this site, and how did you deal with being in this organization?
and also, how did you end up leaving?.
All exjws are happy. That is why they are Ex's because they left and are now happy.
so after being at this weekend's snooze fest i thought the following pretty well summed it all up:.
if it feels good, looks good, sounds good, tastes good, smells good, or is even moderately enjoyable it is from satan!
and if you feel it, look at it, listen to it, taste it, smell it, or even remotely enjoy it you are going to die at armagedon.. if you are too busy, too stressed, or barely able to make financial ends meet, you must pray more, study more, go out door knocking more, and give more money to the organization.. if you are a brother and you have been snubbed, slighted, ignored, bullied, and otherwise passed over for any "advancement" in spite of "reaching out", it is your fault!
A $3000 franchise fee. Without that there would not be a deficit. But that fee is the whole purpose of the assembly.
weird!.

"First, I want to say that though it may seem very strange, the way that our memorial was conducted tonight was "Governing Body approved" as my husband put it and our brothers followed instructions very closely."
Does that make a difference? The GB's approval makes everything all right?
i cannot take credit for any of the gems below but i did want to polish and organize them.
much of the information was borrowed from this thread.
if you can come up with any more, please post them.. the bible does not ban birthdays.
I don't understand why people celebrate them. What's the point? What is the accomplishment?
You survived another year?
