i mean a prophecy made before the event, with specific detail that can be verified in history books.
nothing vague like 'reports of wars'.. .
There are some loopy bastards on this forum, but what is it about 70 weeks and the date 607 that seems to bring out 'the best' of them?
Cheeses. Dating with the dateless.
i can scarcley believe my eyes.
i read in another thread about c. t. russells attitude that his 'studies in the scriptures' is better than the bible and come to the conclusion they are not god abandoned today, god was never there.. fast forward to modern times and they are still at it, likening their body of teachings as being part of the bible.. most of you already know the pasages in their own lit that i refer to, i'm just stating my feelings as i dismantle a 38 year old belief system.. it seems to me, that all along, the belief of the watchtower society is this: our writings are true, they are backed up by the bible.
rather than, the bible is true, backed up by our writings.. disapointed.
Why the disappointment? Whatever the wts does is only what can be expected from such dangerously delusional fools.
Cheeses. By no means a fan.
please fill in the blanks.... from my experiance i would say: " silent, depressed, out all hours in the minstry and only gives birth to males ( potencial ms's elders etc).

the 'old-timers' generally carry a congregation.. .
i grew up in a cong' with six members of the 'anointed' - only one remains, a lovely lady with genuine warmth and interest in people who is now in a nursing home.. .
what happens when the depth that these individuals bring is lost?
Younger ones will come along, grow old, and die off, just as many others before them had done.
The message may change slightly, but as we have experienced over the years, it will be the same shit, but wrapped in a different package.
Cheeses.
i finally translated another issue of our boredom ministry.
join the great cloud of witnesses!
how can we imitate the faithful men of old?.
Another memorable gem from the golden age. Perhaps the gb should mandate that it be compulsory for all jaydubs to get their arseholes stitched up now in preparation for a shit-free life in the new systemTM.
Oh yes cheeses loves you, the fable tells you so!
in the last two years we have seen many changes in the watchtower - a few are listed below.
what are your thoughts concerning the movement and direction of jehovah's witnesses for 2010 and beyond?.
doctrinal changes:.
The only thing I wish for the jws/wts is that they all fall into a vortex and disappear in ever diminishing circles up their own arseholes.
Cheeses. Of the loving kind.
after all the years i have been here, i have slowly progressed to the point that the bible, god, and all the other religious stuff out there is just plain bullshit!!!
yet when i first came here and was told by some of the members that that is what i would logically come to, i did not believe them, and yet they were right.
i realize that a lot of people on this board have left, or are struggling with themselves or family to leave, yet many still believe.
To offer comfort to the weak, the downtrodden and the spiritually weak. In my own peculiar way.
And also to keep up with what the jws/wts are currently doing. For whenever I have the urge to get in their face with a bit of contraversy. I like surprising them - most times I will look right through them as though they weren't there, and then other times I may just get right into their comfort zone.
Ah, they love me. Not.
Cheeses. The wholly holey holy one.
is there or has there been anything that has aided you in your quest to rid yourself of the bitterness and resentment of the jw's .
i know for some it has appeared that they have a newfound religion or religious belief, but that is not the case with myself.. for some maybe visiting these sites encourages them to shed those miserable memories?
for me it just builds more resentment.
Cured? Coped? Whatever!
I recommend a large measure of loathing contempt with a sprinkling of mocking derision helps to put all matters relating to jws in perspective.
Cheeses.
me and the wife both.
for our you know, pre-marital bumping of the fuzzies.
all of those years of guilt she had- she's shocked that all she got was a slap on the wrist.
space cowboy,
Did you get your name because of that vast empty prarie between your ears?
