JW's and Kingdom Halls making money off worldly people ???
by run dont walk inmy wife works at a clinic in a strip mall beside a kingdom hall, she worked there about 8 months, well apparently the clinic she works for rents (donates) parking spaces from the kingdom hall (and its a huge hall, wow, probaly used to be a church) on a monthly basis, and so do many other businesses in the strip mall (dental clinic, optometrist, etc,) the mall is always full.
i don't mean to nit-pick on the witnesses, but does anyone else find this odd, i wonder if they pay tax on that money or claim it as donations, why would you rent space to business that go against bible principles.
what if the business was an abortion clinic ?

Could someone post the May 15 1984 Watchtower articles ???
by run dont walk inmy elder brother seems to think the watchtower never said that, these articles are about the 1914 generation that will not pass away, i beleive they are study articles also, so if someone could post the articles in their entirety form the magazine or direct me to a website that has them, would be appreciated.
i'm pretty sure it was may 15, has the logo on the front cover, 1914 thegeneration that will not pass away, might be may 1, 1984, not sure.. thanks.

Who and What was the deal on this Leo Greenlee's person ?????
by run dont walk in.
from rumour, i understand he was a governing body member, and he liked getting new bethelite boys drunk and playing hide the hot dog in your bum, and that he was transferred to new orleans as a "special pioneer", now this is all rumour, do we have any facts, and how long was he a governing body member, and did he die a faithful witness ???????

Another 607 / 587 BCE question, How do JW's fix the 20 years ??
by run dont walk inok, since all the evidence and people/scholars etc, all agree that jerusalem was destroyed in 587/586 bce and not 607 bce.
how do the jw's get the extra 20 years, i understand the 2520 years and going back from 1914. but alot of the proof goes by adding up the kings reigns, and it gets you to the 587/586 date, do jw's simply add on a few years for each king, or is their a mystery king that ruled for 20 years that only they know about.. hhhhhhmmmmmmm.
hope my question makes sense.

Women ??? Are they moving up ???
by run dont walk inatteneded a catholic wedding on the weekend, it was strange, but nice, i don't know much of the catholic beliefs, talk was about an hour including hymns and songs and prayers, overall i thought it was well done.. one thing that caught my attention, the pastor giving the talk stepped down several times, and sat off to the side, as some women, read scriptures and talked to the audience (they were not nuns, all dressed as you would to go to a wedding), i was pleasantly surprised, i mean they had the whole stage and talked quite effectively, the pastor was very humble and praised the women for the job they did.
are times changing in the religions ????.
we all know this would never happen at the kingom hall.

When was Christ's invisible presence changed to 1914 ? first mention of it?
by run dont walk inkind of a continuation of my previous thread, does anyone know when christ's invisible presence was changed to 1914 form 1874 ???.
the prophecy book (1929), mentions it as positively being in 1874, i've seen a few watchtowers from 1930 say the same.. surely there must of been a huge book or watchtower mentioning the change.
this would of been the most important "new light" ever for witnesses.

If your mate, had an affair, what would you do ??? really, think it out ...
by run dont walk in.
toughest question anyone can ask, if the love of your life, and mate/wife/husband/boyfriend/girlfriend messed around on you, whether it be once or for years, how would you handle it and what would you do, think about it slowly and carefully.. wouldn't wish it upon my worst enemy.. it's said that 50 % of marriages are affected by an affair, it's probaly alot higher.. did you notice any affairs in your congregation ???.
i look back now, and think, oh yeah there was.

Christ's Invisible presence in 1914 ?
by run dont walk inif christ's invisble presence began in 1914 and he was put on the throne, how come no one noticed.
surely this was one of the most important events in our time.
surely with all the annoited still alive back then someone must of noticed, at least one person ?, surely jehovah would of shone the light on the faithful and discreet slave class ?
