This is a very tiresome thread to read through. It has already been debunked on here so I wont try. However I will point out that you failed to show how chapter 1 and 2 of Genesis fit together....since they dont. 2:4a-2:4b are a breaking point and a beginning of a new story.

As I move further away from theWT.....
by Viviane ini've, over the years, looked into many religions.
obviously, from those that have seen me post here, i've become an atheist simply because i couldn't find any reason to believe in god.
recently, though, over the past few months, a new change has started.

by Blackfalcon98 inhi guys, ive finally got a copy of coc from my local library, im on page 120ish and im really enjoying it!

I stay away from this book. Ray Franz was a born again.. thats means he left one cult and joined another... however in reading it I noted the history of JWS in the 1940s-1970s are 100% accurate

Science is right in its details, but wrong in its direction
by exWTslave inscience observes, studies and analyses the basic nature of all the components constituting the part of any experiment, follows the principle of cause and effect, and come out with equipments that would contribute to our comfort and save us lots of time and energyall of which are ultimately aimed at making life on this earth happier, longer and healthier, thus making this world a better place to live.. yet man day-by-day becomes more and more unhappy and discontented, and world is becoming bitter and bitter!
it means: though science is right in its details, it has gone wrong in its direction.
it failed to rightly judge and assess the true nature of its prime object (man) for whom it works.

First of all I find this thread hard to read to the circle it keeps gong in.
Materilism is outdated and unscientific for the reason that this philosephy belives there is nothing beyond the things you can touch or see... since this is against scientici obervation or things like energy and quarks and the multiverse we must trash it.
In the same trash can goes theology though!
Now PHYSICALISM is more open a philoshephy that keeps up with science.
I am not a Physicalist and like me not all athests are physicalists. However I understand the philosephy.
As for spirit this is ignorance of Hebrew and Greek.
Spirit as used in Genesis 1:2 and onwards means breath or wind. I think you need to redifine spirit. lol

Service meeting week of November 3rd! How to indoctrinate children
by stuckinarut2 inoh yep...here we go..... this weeks service meeting has a part designed to show how children should be indoctrinated and manipulated into going "out in service".
the part first asks for the disturbingly corny cartoon clip to be played on the big screen at the halls: "lets go out in service!".
(if you haven't watched it yet, please go to jw.org and watch it....you simply won't beleive it until you see it!).

Sadly it IS child abuse!
I have on my youtube channel 60 videos or so why a child should NOT be exposed to the bible.*
No one should chose a religion until they are of legal age.
* Teenagers SHOULD read the bible. Western Culture, history and poetics being the reason.
