  Origin of Black Skin - JW.org Noah Movie

  by Bloody Hotdogs! in

  i've never seen this discussed here, so thought i'd bring it up:.

  as far as i can figure, jehovah's witnesses no longer teach that black skin is the result of a curse from god.

  instead, they seem to teach that canaan was already dark skinned when his father, ham, brought the curse of servitude upon their family.

  THE IMPONDERABLES TOPIC (Enter at your own risk)

  i suggest taking this slowly .

  .. consider the difference between taking a poll about an upcoming election and the actual vote itself on the day of the election.. the information gathered about what the vote will be is provisional.

  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.

  Panhandlegirl- Terry said of God " if He cannot know, He does not exist".

  I am merely pointing out that technically speaking, not knowing you exist, doesn't mean you don't exist.

  the governing body is preparing to take a major hit.

  this recent watchtower shows it.

  not the new understandings, but the article on marriage.

  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 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  hehehe, 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.

  i was given permission by a jw friend of my wife and me to post this experience.

  she's anonymous and posts on the board.

  she is married to a witness still but is fighting on behalf of children in her congregation to not be a next victim of a pedophile who attends her congregation.

  ) why do animals suffer and die?.

  ) if this is all about god's soverenty, why cause the flood?

  how does it prove "man cannot direct their own step" if god immediately turns around and wipes men out for " eating and drinking, marrying and being given in marriage ?".

  What has your organisation done to protect children?

  What is your organisation currently doing to support victims of abuse?
