the vote on the day of the election is actual and official.. it is the one that counts.. now, carefully ask yourself what the specific difference--if any--there is between the poll information and the election result as an identical knowledge of.

The only "knowledge" humans have of God is based on the stories we have told ourselves about him.
So any counter argument on his abilities to know the future or not is moot.

Why do cults love Tunnels?
by runForever inhehehe, brooklyn bethel had tunnels that went under the street to other buildings and now this warwick will have tunnels.. maybe it's because:" everyone who does evil hates the light, and does not come to the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed.
".
maybe they will be in their tunnels when they are saying : "say to the mountains, 'fall on us,' and to the hills, 'cover us.

They are calling it the "tunnel of love".
More like rat-run than a tunnel.

7 questions to make JWs think
by Coded Logic in) why do animals suffer and die?.

Be honest post do all posters on this site believe the bible is 100% or has flaws?
by booker-t inwe in the psychology/sociology field have a saying "when people protest too loud usually they are overcompensating".
i did not understand that when i first started studying psychology but now i understand it completely and it is so true.
when i hear someone constantly bashing something or someone such as gay bashing or ethnic bashing or religion bashing sometimes i wonder what are they hiding.

Elders and priests what 's the difference?
by sparrowdown inis being a "good" elder the same as being a "good" catholic priest?.
is there any difference between representing the rcc and representing that other bastion of child abuse the wt?.
.
-
sparrowdown
No, of course child abuse is not confined to the RCC or JWs, the point is if you know that the religious group you are representing is up to it's eyeballs
in child abuse cover-ups and abuse scandals dating back decades and that group refuses to address the problem or even acknowledge it.
Then why the hell would you want to continue representing it (which would involve officially defending it) as an elder or a priest?
