A thought on Quotes and the copyright thing.
by Forscher ini downloaded and reviewed the contents of the zip file that was thoughtfully provided of the content of quotes' sight.
i am not a lawyer, however in college i did take a number of law courses, so i'll give you my take on the situation.
it looks to me like the wtbts did have quotes dead to rights on that one.

I took the "1914 Generation" prophecy seriously. Did you?
by nicolaou ini was born in 1964, a convenient 50 years after 1914. even in my early teens i was doing the sums.
i had a worse case scenario figured out - if the 1914 generation could apply to babies and even if they lived to be a 120, i would still only be about 70 years old after they'd all died!
i figured that i was part of the first wave of 'jehovah's people' that really would live to see the new order - guaranteed!!

Would you buy this XJW coffee mug?
by coult9056 inbecause i have a sense of humor about the many failed prophecies of the jw's, i've always wanted some ex-jw merchandise with some class and humor to go with it.
i've considered marketing a few of my ideas.....coffee mugs, shirts, etc.
there are so many areas to go (no blood, no military service, college = devil's propaganda, etc.

Ghostly WT Illustrations
by prophecor inis it just me, or do the illustrations in the watchtower and other related material have an eerie, almost ghostlike appearance?
especially the ones that depict the new system.
the spirit that's reflected in them is of an almost mindless, robotic stepford wives type of mentallity, or maybe irobot, i don't know.

great tribulation or no great tribulation that is my question
by BlackSwan of Memphis inso, what's the deal?
are witnesses now expecting a tribulation to precede armageddon or are they expecting armageddon without a tribulation?.
because in the last couple of years some of the things i am hearing and reading, lead me to believe they are phasing out the concept of a tribulation.
