It's time the bible was placed in the fiction category, along with all other religious books.
If that homophobic piece of shyte was written now, no publisher would ever touch it.

Easy way to resolve this controversy.
Take travelogue book about Egypt with good photos of Great Pyramids to Kingdom Hall.
Consult with Elder and ask him to point out the high water marks.

JW response would be "obviously the method used to date the great pyramid is flawed", followed immediately by "why are you questioning this brother? You sound prideful. You haven't been reading apostate literature, have you?" -

Elders are so shit thick, they couldn't even point out the pyramids.

A big part of my awakening was learning in Native History classes in university of the existence of mammoth kill sites in North America with spear points still embedded in the bone. These sites are reliably dated to almost 13,000 years ago. I'm Native American and I couldn't wrap my head around the idea that the flood supposedly wiped out the mammoths (as the watchtower says) yet there were clearly people hunting them. Would Jehovah(tm) be such an unloving bastard as to wipe out an entire people who never even knew what was coming? Unless Noah magically "preached" in North America, too.
Of course, subsequent classes in geology, atmospheric science and anthropology wiped out any remaining shred of belief in a global flood.

JW thinking is more and more out of step with modern thought. To uphold its fairy tale beliefs such as the flood and Adam and Eve requires ever more credulity and ignorance. This means that JWs with a glimmer of intelligence have to live with ever greater cognitive dissonance to remain in the congregation. GET OUT NOW BEFORE THEY STEAL YOUR REMAINING BRAIN CELLS!

Half banana - "JW thinking is more and more out of step with modern thought."
No offense, but as criticisms go, that one's pretty toothless; they consider it a virtue.

Quite so Vidiot but from the point of view of potential punters, the JW religion is beginning to look like it's stuck in the middle ages. -
