Newborn Loses Faith In The Jehovah’s Witnesses After Record 6 Days
by Watchtower-Free ingreen bay, wiin a turn of events that has stunned the worldwide medical community, local infant nathan jameson, born just six days ago, has become the youngest person ever to permanently and irrevocably know jehovah's witnesses are a harmful cult..this shatters all previous records, university of chicago psychologist douglas mcallister said monday.
in all of documented medical history, there is no case of a newborn taking less than four months to develop the mental faculties required to grasp the full extent of this nightmare called jehovahs witnesses.considering he already comprehends harsh realities that most jehovahs witnesses spend their entire fleeting, shallow existences attempting to deny, baby nathan is quite the little miracle!
he added.though he has not yet developed the capacity for speech, extensive cognitive testing has definitively shown that the shockingly perceptive 6-day-old fully understands and accepts that jehovahs witnesses cannot be trusted, that they remain far too ignorant for their opinions to be reliable, that a lack of self-awareness about their own destructive cult pervades them as a whole, and that most are too ineffectual to successfully pursue facts evidence and reason.sources said the early-blooming newborn was putting two and two together about the real nature of the jehovahs witnesses cult even before leaving the hospital, where his first sensory experiences included the shouts of sick people arguing to get treatment they urgently needed, visitors staring vacantly at smartphones as they scanned jw.org for fear inspired motivation.local reports confirmed the babys disillusionment was only compounded by the fact that he spent his first days in the bleak and soulless company of jehovahs witness relatives , their empty cult non-culture allowing him to realize in record time that all jw pursuits are cold, joyless, and devoid of any substantive purpose or integrity.for a baby, he sure is an insightful little guy, nathans mother, melanie jameson, told reporters.

Could trends and group think be evidence of a form of telepathy?
by EndofMysteries ini was thinking the other day about trends.
think back over the decades and how generally the majority of people will feel or like or dislike the same things.
people comment how awful and ugly things that trended in the past were.

I don't feel we should be surprised at all that similar brains processing similar information will arrive at similar conclusions.
In any sufficiently complicated system emergent properties almost always arise. At every scale things are more than the sum of their parts. Atoms are not just quantitatively greater than the neutrons, protons and electrons of which they are made -but they're also qualitatively greater. That is to say, atoms have properties that its parts don't.
As we scale up complex molecules have properties that the atoms of which they are composed simply don't - like metallic, ionic, and covalent bonds. Chains of these molecules - like RNA and DNA - also have emergent properties - like self replication. Put enough of these self replicating molecules together and suddenly you have something even greater - like cell. Put a whole bunch of cells together and you end up with something even greater - like an animal. Put enough of these animals together - like humans - and you get something even greater - like societies and cultures.
And trends in culture shouldn't surprise us. To the contrary - they are to be expected. No telepathy required.

I feel there are several things that can be done to help protect the victims:
1.) When an Elder or MS first hears of a child abuse complaint they should be required to encourage the accuser and or guardian to file a police report.
2.) Regardless of the accuser's and or guardian's intention to - or not to - file a police report the Elder or MS must make the authorities aware of the complaint.
3.) Any and all testimony taken from the accuser by the Elders must be recorded and made available to the authorities upon request.
4.) Any and all testimony taken from the accused by the Elders must be recorded and made available to the authorities upon request.
5.) Upon receiving a complaint of child abuse the Elders must inform the congregation that a child abuse complaint has been made by one of the congregation members against another congregation member. If the accuser and accused are in separate halls the notice must be made in both halls. The identity of both the accuser and accused must remain confidential.
6.) If the accused confesses to the Elders that they abused a child then the identity of the accused and nature of their crime must be made public to the congregation. If the accused transfers to another congregation the new congregation shall be made aware of the name accused and that they have admitted to child abuse.
7.) If an individual has been convicted of child abuse in the court of law it shall be made known to their congregation by the elders that their is a convicted child abuser in the congregation and the identity of the offender. When the individual transfers to a new congregation it shall be made know by the elders that individual is a convicted child abuser.
8.) If a complaint is made in a hall or it becomes known that a convicted child abuser is in the congregation a special public needs talk shall be given on what children should do if they are abused, on what members should do if they suspect a child has/is being abused, and what legal resources are available to them.
9.) Parents who have children that are minors in a congregation that has a confessed or convicted child abuser must be allowed to transfer their families to another congregation if they wish to without interference from the BOE.

Well clearly women who "run a company, a university, a science department and even a country" must be homosexuals.

I'd still use it. Doesn't matter when he said it. He's never walked back the statement. And he IS a member of the GB!

One possibility…?
by careful intornintwo's recent topic spurred me finally to post an idea i've been thinking about.
i don't see the gb as being financially greedy.
yes, they enjoy numerous perks like having their physical needs met by servants, jetting around the planet, living in a greater degree of comfort than fellow bethelites, getting frequent and sometimes expensive gifts from the r&f, etc.

Coded Logic
nonjwspouse,
I've often wondered that too - how much authority do the GB actually have in financial matters? And who really is running the show?
I can't say for sure but over the past couple of years I've come to suspect that no one is truly in charge. It's just a whole bunch of people following other people following others. But how could we ever know?

The Exodus confirmed..
by Crazyguy infor those of you that don't research this stuff i will give a little back story.
we all know about the moses exodus, but history and archeology didn't seem to confirm this event.
the only exodus out of egypt ever recorded was that of a group of asiatic tribes that had taken over egypt for a bit over 100 years called the hyksos and the followers of the pharaoh akhenaten who perpetuated a monotheistic idea of worshiping only one deity the aten.

I think this makes better sense then to think the whole story was just made up.

We discovered a Dyson Sphere! . . . maybe
by Coded Logic inokay, okay, okay - i know we're not supposed to jump to conclusions.
but the odds this is a "naturally occurring event" are pretty low.
and it's just the sort of megastructure we would expect an advanced alien civilization (type 2) to build.
-
Coded Logic
But despite the evidence, they're still not ready to discount the alien megastructure idea entirely. "We can't really say it is, or is not," said Marengo.
Yup, definitely aliens!!!

Well said. And it's a difficult idea for people to get their heads around.
The percentage of a population who believes a particular claim says nothing about the validity of that claim. The majority of people in antiquity used to believe that the Earth was flat - but that didn't mean the Earth was any less spherical back then. Only that Eratosthenes was one of very few people who was right (240 B.C).

So if we just ignore what is meant by "The Exodus" and redefine it to mean "any exodus" we can confirm it actually happened? Really?
The writer of the OP seems to be confused about what "The Exodus" is. Namely, 2 million Israelites who left Egypt by walking across floor of the Red Sea and then went off to wander in the desert for forty years under the guidance of the patriarch Moses.
Anything else is not "The Exodus". It may be the origins of the story of "The Exodus" or it may be completely unrelated. But either way it doesn't confirm the event. The linked article is a fascinating bit of speculation but - until such a time as we have good reasons to believe the Hyksos were the origins of story - the proposal is ". . . not only not right - it's not even wrong."
