I was able to get my wife to agree with one case where the WBTS is wrong. Shot down later by the RBC.

    So she believes now that the shark eats hay? Even whales eat krill which are living creatures not vegetation. I worked on quick buildings and saw swearing, lying, theft. Did the RBC guy mention that the WTS expected the jws to fork over the money they got from the insurance company? What about Habitat for Humanity? Why not visit one of their builds and see how they work together?

    Plankton and Algae, Blondie. We can have a pet great white in our swimming pool in the new system of things.

    The proof of God's church is not in its ability to mobilize. If so, the U.S. Navy would be God's true church. Also, as noted, Mormons are often the first on the scene of earthquakes and other disasters. They have the greatest private welfare system in the world as well.

    So what makes Jehovah's organization true? Simply that the great Jehovah stands at its head and guides and directs it in all things. I have problems believing that God would manifest himself in the last days through a Bible and tract publishing society. At the same time, I also have problems with believing that he would destroy those who live pure lives in good conscience.

    Sidepoint for JWoods: Are you relying on your memory re whales and krill. I just watched on show on them.

    DIET AND BALEENHumpback whales (like all baleen whales) are seasonal feeders and carnivores that filter feed tiny crustaceans ( krill - mainly Euphausia superba, copepods, etc.), plankton , and small fish (including herring, mackerel, capelin, and sandeel) from the water. They are gulpers (not skimmers), filter feeders that alternatively swim then gulp a mouthful of plankton or fish. Concentrated masses of prey are preferable for this method of feeding. An average-sized humpback whale will eat 4,400-5,500 pounds (2000-2500 kg) of plankton, krill and small, schooling fish each day during the feeding season in cold waters (about 120 days). They eat twice a day.

    Cult members ALWAYS want to change the subject when you have them in a corner. This is a typical example. NEVER engage her in the topic she is trying to divert you to. EVER.

    Always stay with YOUR question. SHE has to explain THAT. ............ ALWAYS

    What a shame.

    The company I work for had 12 staff affected by the floods in Manila. It organised a worldwide relief effort and raised money from other staff members around the world to help the 12 people and their families. The email that was sent even referred to them as our brothers and sisters in the Philippines. I was quite blown away and remembered how as a JW I thought we were the only ones that did this sort of work.

    There is a famous fossil of a huge shark or whale like creature, and inside it is another fossil of a fish, in its stomach - so it must have eaten it. A friend of mine at HQ doubted it.

    Just a question: Is a way out of this for the fundamentalists, a middle road, that they before the flood ate dead animals - what is it called - scavengers, necrophagous?

    No, you don't need venom to kill a dead animal.

    JW's and kindred groups base the idea of an all vegetarian antediluvian ecology on Genesis 1:30:

    "And to every wild beast of the earth and to every flying creature of the heavens and to everything moving upon the earth in which there is life as a soul, I have given all green vegetation for food."

    ..and on the restoration prophecies of Isaiah (11:7; 65:25) which they believe foretell a return to that state.

    It doesn't matter how or why an animal has died; A dead animal is not green vegetation. They won't admit that any single piece of the Genesis account is not absolutely literal. Apparently that is viewed as a slippery slope.

    Did Jehovah create the Cheetah so as to have phenominal speed so that it could chase down runner beans?

    Creationists for me, are the worst sort.

    They spurt rubbish, absolute rubbish, yet state that what they say is factual.

    Anyway, I'm off to catch a runner bean. Hope the Cheetah doesn't beat me to it.
