  if you have been seeing the world news, you probably aware that zelensky launch a drown attack on putin and almost killed him.

  putin lost it and hit ukraine with the largest drone and missile attack of war so far, killing not only soldiers by many civilians.

  even trump has said putin has changed.

  I googled the subject.

  It looks like Putin and Zelinsky have each made multiple assassination attempts on each other during the war.

  Nothing much this week from reputable sources. Guys repeating Hindustan Times or the Sun from mom's basement, don't worry me.

  Too bad. Just think of how much misery could have been prevented with an early assassination of Hitler.

  If you Google his name there are pages about him. Sounds like a really nice sincere person. I wish I had known him.

  What was really going on with Abel? Does anyone find the story of Cain and Abel screwed up.

  by liam in

  ever wonder about the story of cain and abel?

  why did jehovah like abel's sacrifice more than cain's?

  maybe there's a subtle reason why jehovah likes animal sacrifices.

  When you accept that the Bible is the written record of hardscrabble Bronze Age goatherders (carnivores) and not the creator of the universe, everything makes more sense.

  Their life was hard, so they believed god must be an angry sociopath who desired blood sacrifice for appeasement.

  Dinosaur Soft Tissue

  by Sea Breeze in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  back when the dinosaur soft tissue story was broken in 2005, i predicted that that many more soft tissues would be found and that it wouldn't matter if it was supposedly "65 million" years old or "165 million" years old.

  the prediction has proven true and dinosaur soft tissue is routinely now found regardless of supposed age.

  this is easy to predict using a literal reading of genesis and accepting it as history.... .

  Who is the source of this YouTube site?

  Not an accredited "Dr." of geology, biology, or Paleontology.

  It is folly to leave Watchtower and its fake "experts," like Fred Franz, to grab onto new fakes.

  I noticed higher concentrations of JWs in poorer counties with high Hispanic % populations.

  I saw some similar stats with other surveys regarding JW Spanish congregations.

  Is the Governing Body hunting down PIMOs? LEAKED survey for select congregations in Canada

  by liam in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  it seems like the organization is hunting down pimos.

  maybe the mark o donnell lawsuit is just the beginning.. this leaked survey in canada is asking some very weird questions from select publishers.

  all i can say is that this will help wake up some pimi straddling the fence.

  Great deal if from PEW, a University, or another reputable source.

  From Watchtower HQ...? I wouldn't be surprised if each had a unique number or code in UV or invisible ink to root out the heretics!

  Things Rutherford got wrong that Fred Franz had to clear up

  by slimboyfat in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was interested by the suggestion in a recent discussion that rutherford was in some way preferable to fred franz, because i’ve not come across this view before.

  it made me rethink my assumptions and try to work out why i hold the opposite view and prefer fred franz to rutherford.

  i haven’t done any additional research, so i’m only drawing on what i can remember off the top of my head, but i thought i’d list a few things where i reckon fred franz’s approach was preferable to rutherford.

  With logic like this no wonder JWs are the poorest religion in the USA.
