Have the Borganisation produced a CDROM this year?
by outinthemeadows in
1. watchtower
2. bible
has anyone got a download link for the watchtower cdrom for this year?

i check google every now and then but can't find one.

perhaps the borganisation can't afford to produce a cdrom with all these child abuse cases they are paying out for?

i alluded to this possibility in another thread:.

now the axe has fallen!

Sad but no secret in the motor sport community.

V8 Super cars saw this coming and introduced "other makes"

to support the business. We now have mercedes, nissan, volvo

with bmw and chrysler sniffing around as well as the Penske

organisation looking to secure racing entitlements contracts.

I went chasing the "trillions of cd" claim in para 13 and found that Leonard Adleman a molecular biologist and computer scientist

made the calculation back in 1994-8. However, in 2012 I think if i remember correctly, Two Harvard University scientists

did the experiment and actually stored 700 Terabytes of info in a gram of DNA. That worked out to 1,024,000 CD'S.

Who Said modern technology isn't useful for da meetings? I learnt some interesting scientifically proven information there

on my trusty ipad. Then I enjoyed reading on about DNA Computing.

on page 15 and paragraph 13 of the same issue the wt also states " Rather than acquiring secular degrees and titles after their names, true christians focus on

obtaining 'letters of recommendation' by engaging as fully as possible in the field ministry.-Read 2 corinthians 3:1-3"

Its the October 15th study edition page 16 paragraph 15

Under the Sub Heading " Benefit from the highest education"

" What is the atmosphere in many of this world's institutions of higher education?

Are they not hotbeds of political and social unrest? (eph. 2:2) By contrast Jehovah's organization

provides the highest form of education in the peaceful setting of the Christian congregation. Each of us has

the opportunity to benefit from the Theocratic Ministry School. Then there are specialised courses for single pioneer brothers etc etc.....

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'

something about the difference and revision of their chances,,,, I'm thinking,, this bloke must be on jwnet !!!!

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

one out as well, esp. projected population growth etc.
