No worries konceptual99 I'm on it. That's why I popped the question.
Hey, one of the microphone handlers tonight dropped the bombshell...
"there is an anomally in the insight book regarding Sodom's chances of resurrection"
Joint goes quiet, elders turn around and the mike man goes on to explain the differing 'lights'

Well folks, thats kind of what I was suspecting because I don't quite
see the point in hair splitting as the article seems to do in this instance.
Well said konceptual99 and we all started somewhere. Found your
Egyptian timeline interesting as I'm currently trying to nut that

Hi Folks
October 15 2013 study watchtower page 7 para 3. The paragraph states that
"fundamentalists of Christendom teach that the universe, including our earth
and all life on it, is only a few thousand years old. Those who teach this doctrine
- known as creationism-....... etc etc" (it would take me hours to type the whole lot).
My question is... Would not WTBTS be classified as Creationists albeit Old Earth Creationists ?
Some of you will no doubt find the sentence in the same paragraph referring to these fundamentalists
who teach this doctrine as interesting... " They reject credible scientific evidence that contradicts their view"

this past week's wt study lesson was entitled: 'pioneering strengthens our relationship with god'.. under the subheading 'remaining in the full-time service' in par 14 the wt has the nerve to give this admonition to pioneers: .
'desiring to learn from jesus' example, a pioneer does well to keep in mind that the more material things he has, the more he will have to maintain , repair, or replace.'.
i don't think the gb or anyone in the writing department has the freedom to speak on giving adivce on the matter of 'material things' given the fact that wt has close to a billion dollars in real estate and loads of money in various bank accounts; given the fact that gb is currently building themselves new living quarters with who knows what sort of comforts and other amenities.
Is another person writing SFPW's posts ????? Gotta be a new script writer.
anyone else have a #3 talk tonight?
i wrote a talk but i don't like it.. anyone have one written they wanna post?

Wallsofjericho, find and use better scripts and only cite these two as you feel somewhere in the talk.
I've done this before with "boring" reference material. Haven't had a lecture yet.

Weren't any stumbled where I was, we just wondered what dictionary definition
he was using, and what else he may have been. Da fing is, there is a considerable amount of disquiet evident within the org today.
As we all "study our heritage" we become abundantly aware of the increase in human inconsistency
within the org that has origins going back many decades. And don't come back with the imperfect men like David bit.
BTW, during the consideration of this article the deafening silence of pioneers' answer's in the hall was eerie.

But Brother Mike, I still vividly recall the words of a D.O.
on dealing with the accusation of brainwashing.
"What's wrong with being brainwashed ????"
"I'm happy to be brainwashed if it gives me eternal life!!"
Be happy Bro Mike !!!
