Astronomy! Carl Sagan wrote reams about evidential reasoning, on a bit of a tangent is all the evidence against a 4000 year old flood and 6000 year old man, complete skeletons of early man etc but you will have to read up somewhere, find a ready source of information hmm :) (there's this magic google button I've heard about)

Study with an Elder - propose a question.
by CitizenofEarth inhello there.. as some of you might remember i am keeping my facade up by "studying" with an elder.
this study however is more of a session where i put hard questions about the org, doctrine and so on, on the table.
the time has come for the next session in a couple of days, and i have quite frankly lost the will to keep digging up things that just shouldn't be happening.

Anything i should know about the upcoming convention?
by CitizenofEarth inanything i should be aware of?
i am not sure i will go, since i just moved away from home a month ago.
it is not cheap to travel 250km and pay for hotel here in denmark, and i am not exactly rich.

Tacoma Dome Conventions
by Lynnie inso i went to visit my jw aging mother this week (i've been df'd for 40 years) and she told me she needs to give the people who are taking her to the convention $10 each day of the convention to cover gas?
my uber elder cousin told her she needs to do this!!!
wtf?

Has anybody heard of Comp(limentary) hotel rooms at conventions, these are free rooms given to Watch Tower as a form of commission, remember BOOK ONLY THE ROOMS ON THE LISTS PROVIDED BROTHERS So, because of some mix-up we were assigned to one of these rooms and I was required to pay about $300 to WT, Huh? Why were empty comp rooms not assigned to hard up folks like single moms?

Watchtower study today - best practice in word
by Gorbatchov indue to family reasons gorby was present today.. the watchtower study was about refugee's.. how to treat refugee's, jw and non believers, and help them spiritual, not financial.
nothing new.. what i mentioned is the juridical message underneath the whole story.
don't talk politics, listen to government regulations etc.. most bizar is that a whole congregation that normaly avoid giving any aid to people in need, this morning gave the best practice in word about what to do with refugee's.. if the subject was not that serious, this hypocracy could be funny.

Weekly Scripture Twist - aka the Watchtower Study
by doubtfull1799 in“more than material assistance, refugees need spiritual and emotional support.
(matt.
4:4) elders can help by obtaining literature in the language of the refugees and by helping them contact brothers who speak their language.

Two additional thoughts after reading the article (after the immense sense of relief that I'm out!) It seems that jws are on an "annoying" campaign to hasten the onset of Armageddon, and, Hey! Good News! Sisters can now wear slacks in the Ministry,

Anointed Ratios
by Labate inanother recent topic got me thinking.
has there ever been any kind of study of the ratio of male to female anointed?
if the female anointed will be co-rulers in heaven with morris and company, why are they not represented as gb members and helpers before armageddon arrives?.

jwfacts: one must remember that (if you are a Bible believer) that gullibility is not the result of sin, Eve was gullible and listened to the serpent BEFORE eating the fruit, therefore it will always be necessary for women to be guided about by men for their own safety, (BTW Ladies, this was tongue in cheek, please don't give me red marks, Thank-you)

The prob!em of women on Earth according to the Apostle Paul is genetic gullibility (purportedly passed on from Eve) :)
