BTK59 …. what you have been doing so far just ain’t cuttin’ it.
EVERYBODY has an opinion.
EVERYBODY has a butt hole.
….. don’t get ‘em mixed up!
Now THAT’s a FACT!

Or to put it a little more succinctly as we say in the UK , He’s a bit of a nob 

..

From an individual who seems unapologetically self-absorbed, I must inform you that your perspective carries little significance. Therefore, feel free to express yourself vehemently and indulge in immature behavior.
Keep in mind that God is aware of your intricate malicious intentions. Remember, the consequences are a result of your own actions, leaving no one else to hold accountable but you.

… and donchew forget now … the GB now allows Sisters to come to meetings and go out in field service in slacks or Mumus. 
Or slacks AND Mumus, if poundage appropriate.
Did I ever mention I once dated a Sister that made Mumus out of parachutes? She was an Opera singer, and had a UN diplomatic passport. She was on “speed”, couldn’t blink, and typed 600 words a minute with 100% errors. Occasionally she would get lipstick in her eyebrows.
 

Which one is yours Tom, Many Miles, Miracle Pete, etc. Get a life Pete.
Could it be James Ulterego, lol!
This is precisely why I refrain from sharing details of my life in this place, as it often yields nothing but narrow-minded and senseless responses. Yet, Tom gets an upvote from the ignorant.
I trust that Pete's imprudent reply has provided you with the necessary clarification, Tom.

… fine Corinthian leather?

Which of your life story is Alphonso and which is George88 not to mention BTK or whatever your other aliases are. 
‘ my life story is rich and complex’  is a statement that could only be uttered by a raging egocentric. 
do you have ‘ many leather bound books in your library’ and does it smell like ‘ rich mahogany’ ?

Where does criticism of the Watchtower, the Governing Body, and Elders fit in this situation? Does it truly seem reasonable to you?
My life story is so rich and complex that it would fill a book. Are you implying that you would like to be my ghostwriter?
Hence, it is imperative that we adhere to our Christian principles, as the divine gaze of God expects this from us. Consequently, when an individual employs baseless personal criticism, they themselves become vulnerable to critique, as they fail to uphold the very principle they are being questioned about.
So, you don't have a lifetime to hear my life story. lol!

… OR … be like Georgie, and get sixteen lives!
.., reminds me of the time I used the edge of the top of a tin can of black eyed peas to cut a worm into three parts ….
…. so he (?) might have some friends.

This depends, are you as good as Shakespeare? lol!

Pete, with what you're shoveling, you must be stuck there or is that your permanent residency, lol!

Having absolutely no observable sense of humor whatsoever, Georgie, humor and satire are totally unknown to you. 
Hitler had the same observation when Berlin was beseiged by English, French, American and Russian forces from all sides …
”You know, Steiner, those Allied Forces have absolutely NO sense of humor …”

Where is BTK? Is he deep in thought or in the lavatory? Or both? 

Does it matter if people are tuning in to a news source known for its shameful content? I only watch it for the humor.
Does that discount the fact that Pudgy, this disfellowshiped Republican registered voter and Racist tried to influence his political agenda here?
If it was truly disheartening for him to post it now, in a presidential election year, Pudgy and FOX NEWS would have shown outrage in 2021. Why didn't FOX NEWS mention it in 2021, the outrage felt by those Confederate white supremacist Republicans, MAGA, attempting to influence and corrupt our nation?
This is why Witnesses shouldn't engage in politics, which is precisely why they should abstain from it. Now Pudgy, can you genuinely refute Biden's 2021 declaration? Avoid distorting, manipulating, or twisting your words. Provide concrete evidence that he did not make that declaration in 2021, rather than in 2024, a presidential election year?

If there had been witnesses in Washington's time, they would not have paid attention to Paul Revere. lol!
One of the concerns they should be vigilant about is identifying apostates.

LOL! That's hilarious how O. Neugebauer mentions: (B) “‘diluvium’’: actually Kaliyuga 1, Chaitra 1 = —3101 Febr. 17 = julian day 588,465 
I'm still working on the hypothesis.
Diluvium: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diluvium
I wonder what he meant by this, since -3101 corresponds to the year 880 BC, during Asa's and Zimri's reigns.
Kali Yuga, also known as Kaliyuga, refers to the concept in Hinduism that signifies the impending destruction of the Earth or humanity.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kali_Yuga
According to Hindu cosmology, it is predicted that at the end of the Kali Yuga, Lord Shiva will destroy the universe and the physical body will undergo a great transformation. After the dissolution, Lord Brahma will recreate the universe, and humankind will become the Beings of Truth once again.
I am curious about the time period we are discussing. I cannot recall any catastrophic events mentioned in the Bible around 880 BC, unless it was intended to illustrate the story of how Zimri annihilated the entire family of Baasha.
Can he have meant 588 BC, if so, he's off since it is placed in -3393
The puzzling thing, is: Febr. 17 = julian day 588,465 
If I use 588.465,
The calendar date for 588,465 is 12:0:0.00 UT on July 5, -4711.
If I use 880 BC as a reference point, I get 1400050.2933
It's not a match. Perhaps I too should embrace a skeptical mindset! lol!

@Pudgy
Thanks for the info.
So, JWs do not celebrate birthdays because it has pagan roots.
But they also shave their beards despite the fact that shaving has pagan roots.

What an inconsistency!
lol

i suspect about half of the convicted “apostates” are really “double agents”, serving Jehovah’s best interests while wearing the scarlet letter “A”, to precipitate important reform that is sorely needed.
THE classic example is the 2016-2017 apostate generated Watchtower Parody on beards, in which EVERYTHING STATED was 100% true, and diametrically opposed to the teachings and practices of the Society and the Governing Body, and the practices of the global congregations’ body of elders, with VERY few exceptions.
In March of 2024, the Governing Body caved in and recognised officially as true all the apostate points in that 2016-2017 apostate Watchtower parody.
When your agenda is control, bad things happen, and there is tyranny.
When your agenda is TRUTH, good things happen, and there is Liberty!
 

Most people outgrew that “I know you are, but what am I “ tactic in the fourth grade. 
I am old enough to remember when Democrats were people with different philosophies and different outlooks, but were sane. Robert A. Heinlein, Master of Science Fiction I highly respected, was a Democrat … but I have noticed in the last 40 years or so all the Democrats on TV or media reports think EXACTLY LIKE YOU, Georgie and your clone sock puppets like BTK and Alphonse da downvoter, et al.
The standard playbook among the Dims and you is projecting your agendas onto others to see if the bat crap crazy will stick to them as well.
You think you are fooling people, but your silly “blame game” fools no one other than your minions …. and yourself.
Very seldom do I even downvote your presumptuous fallacies because they are so painfully obviously not based on anything that is real.
I have taken your fantasies and directly discredited them with hard facts, one by one by one.
No deflection whatsoever. None. Zero.
Direct frontal attack with comprehensive real world proofs.
Reread the last two pages out loud and you will hear yourself reciting EXACTLY THAT.
You NEVER refute my proofs, because they ARE real proofs, even when challenged to do so.
You always choke, project, deflect, mislead, and lie.
You are like President Bill Clinton. EVERYBODY on all sides knew he was a liar, but were truly astonished how good he was at it.
Refute the facts and prove me wrong.
Proof.
Not projection.

Certainly, you may have noticed the illogical approach people took with the Eclipse War, also known as the Haly's War, when it was mentioned.
The same can be said for the Pelusium War that occurred during Cambyses' reign from 530-522 BC, specifically in 525 BC. This conflict began with Egyptian ruler Ahmose II (also known as Amasis II) from 570-526 BC, but unfortunately, he passed away before the full-scale conflict could come to fruition. Subsequently, Psamtik III assumed the leadership role from 526-525 BC. When it comes to individuals who oppose something they do not fully comprehend, the situation becomes quite challenging. It is akin to teaching history to children. Interestingly, Cambyses himself took on the role of Egyptian Pharaoh from 525-522 BC.
At this point, Cambyses wore a double crown, one Persian and the other Egyptian. Once again, since no king could be in two places at once, whom did Cambyses leave in charge as vassal to his kingdoms?
Instead of arguing about years and events involving many players, I prefer to refer to months. I have witnessed uninformed individuals arguing over seconds, minutes, hours, days, and weeks, demanding details as though they alone have the authority to make decisions about information that doesn't meet their false standards, when they didn't even experience the events themselves. Their approach becomes irrational and nonsensical. Therefore, I refuse to engage in their foolish games of distorting facts. An honest person, not seeking recognition, finds the revelation refreshing.
Certainly, there is an extensive amount of information that I haven't included in that timeline. However, as I mentioned before, it is more convenient for me to utilize the year 539.
 

During the 2015 ARC process in Australia, not a single JW elder expressed regret for the victims. Not a single one, and among them was a member of GB who did not show grief for the victims of "his" elders. 
The same happened in other court processes where JW elders were present. 
The uniform response speaks of the unity of these JW elders. Commendable, isn't it? And where is the "biblically trained conscience"? Obviously, the permission did not arrive from the GB for the conscience to react and act. Shameful!

It is concerning that governments are swayed by the testimonies of former witnesses, leading to the overturning of decisions made by lower courts, as seen in the case of Cardinal Pell in Australia, along with dozens of others.
No true witness should be swayed by negative comments from former witnesses and their agenda along with any disfellowshipped. That's no better.
