attention!.
i'm in my final re-write of the monorails of mars novel.. as you may know, the book is a sci-fi allegory concerning mind control by the watch tower.. .
i have a scene in nikola tesla's laboratory in which he is about to attempt an exchange between mars and earth.. the volunteers--instead of actually traveling physically from one planet to the other will instead swap minds.. need i say--it will go wrong?!.
My first college composition teacher told us to use as few words to convey a point as possible. I had a tough time reading Ray Franz because he expressed the same point, different ways, in every paragraph. I realized then why some of the society's books were unreadable.
I've noticed that celebrities sometimes do not allow their books to be edited. I guess it's an ego thing.
welcome, to anyone up for a thought experiment and some fun with your inner god complex.
i was inspired with this question while at 7/6/14 watchtower study.
the question is.. if you were to be made god how would interact with your creations?
Put a lot of thought into your every decision humans, because if you hurt the environment or any of the other creatures, including other humans, I've got this other planet I'm going to zap you to, called Earth, where they do whatever the hell they want.

Terry, good: the quality of editing can make or break a book.

the influential paper the telegraph comments on this american invasion of tropical pictured propaganda every where in london.
the commentator was not impressed.
Couldn't stomach the entire article, but did read some.
This new approach blew in from America, and is based on communicating how the Bible can help people deal with daily issues, such as stress.
"Stress has become a problem in your life? Just wait until Jehovah has several billion of your fellow humans, and possibly you, rubbed out."
"That sounds pretty stressful."
would you say this board gives accurate information, overall?
if someone started reading the comments here, do you think they would find this discussion board as accurate?.
There is some accuracy and there is a lot of opinion and personal perception.
let's be technical.
the bronze age ended in 1200 bce in devoloped places and later ... aroun 900-800 in other places.
indeed read 1 samuel 13's ending.. the bible was produced not one tiny bit in the bronze age.
Call them common origin stories. Babylonions are the source for violent gods and scary stories.
hey everyone,.
thanks qcf and nugget for starting threads.
thanks cofty for wondering where i was.
Good, good to hear from you. Enjoy your vacation. My gramma always said it's so much easier to get things into perspective when you're on vacation. Enjoy.
i am compelled to write a bit about this at this late hour here in the us, because it is keeping me up.. the recent four year old thread on the briggs myers personality type test that was dug up, produced an interesting finding.
many here, (at least tested informally for), the intj personality type.
intjs also do not understand irrational behavior particularly well at all.. why does this matter?
Also, the type change can have to do with whether you are depressed when you take the test.

The Bible being a bronze age book is actually something Christians claim.
Funny, I've never once heard anyone claim the Bible is a bronze age book, Christian or otherwise. I went to churches until I was 12 and since I left the JWs. Not ever a mention of the bronze age.

I am not an INTJ.
For those who took the test years ago, find more than one test version and take the tests again. Your type can change. I never was an INTJ, but my personality type has changed from ENFP to INFP and back to ENFP. And there was a time when I tested as something else. I have tested ENFP more often though. I know both INFPs and ENFPs who are ex jws.
