well i was listening to this video about nietzsche's "thus spoke zarathustra" zarathustra is a major figure in the history of the world's religion, famous for the concept of dualism in the mono deities(all good and an all evil) that has gotten a lot of attention from scholars.
i think this video can give you some perspective on nietzsche work: thus spoke so in so:.

Theres also the uglyness that his works were used to justify and support (rightly or wrongly) the national socialist movement in germany (yea the nazi’s) and then later in the 60’s it was white washed to make them more socially acceptable. So theres that too... anyway you slice it he didnt envision a singularity and was bat shit crazy.
Galos gann was far more altruistic

Nietzsche Died in 1900. The concept of a singularity was a century beyond him.
He also went insane.
My story is way better and makes a similar point in a far more entertaining way

I prefer the story of the last man on earth, galos gann, as told in alexander hamiltons story “in the worlds dusk”. Its a bit of a thought exercise in how far men go to shape the world but in the futility of it all and cyclical nature of the universe. I highly recommend it.
these bible stories are too silly to be true.
take off your rose colored glasses and you will begin to see some great imagination, exaggeration and great story telling!.

*please note: im not agreeing with the method, the hymen can break without incourse, just giving the bronze age method of determining the virginity of a woman

The silliest story were ever believed..? “In the beginning god created the heavens and the earth”
if you have a look at the december broadcast on jw tv they tell you that they wont be showing you a normal format for december but the 143rd event of gilead because the watchtower does not have the resources other wise to translate it many different lanuages.. with all the cuts the watchtower have made and are going to make you would have thought that they would have lots of resources.
Slim, its interesting that no matter how unlikable they are the jw’s wont let themselves acknowledge their feelings. I totally agree, btw. I remember seeing that over emoting rubber faced clown lett an international convention with the woman i was married to at the time (i was still a believer). I was incredibly turned off by his antics and said so to many there... not one would agree. He was gb so he was incapable of being less than perfect in their eyes. Ive tried over and over with people who will express doubts over a teaching but when it comes to questioning a member of the gb they just refuse... its so deeply indoctrinated that these are jesus brothers they just wont let themselves go that far. Its only when they have doubts on other things that they begin to see what ass hats they are
l have researched this subject and come to the conclusion that no we didn't.what do others think?.
If you find the discussion without meaning perhaps youd be happier not visiting the thread?
i have been sadly watching as the number of jws in other countries are decreasing (for the most part), while the numbers in the us are strangely increasing.
while i question the organization's self reporting numbers, i think 2018 may be the year for another mass us exodus.
leah remini's show will be focusing on jws in her show on a&e.
I think a number of long term internal pressures will bring decline in the United States. (Unless the organisation actually collapses which is also possible)
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 .... just sayin....
I will the above is just wishful thinking, but wouldn't it be great?
yes, it is.

Supermoon is end of jan. Also a blue moon
good link for interesting star gazing this year
1972 : we started studying with the jehovah's witnesses when my uncle became an elder and put fear into our family that armageddon was close.
1974 : my mom, my brother and i were all baptized after all the convention talks and watchtower magazine articles that 1975 would likely end this system of things.
1999 : being told that the year 2000 was going to mark the 6 thousand years of mans existence and that the 1000 year kingdom in the new paradisewould come in the year 2000.
Uhm.... i was around in 1999 and dont recall anything about 2000 marking 6k of mans existence . That was part of the 75 debacle. They were smart enough not print anything about 2000
your point is well taken, however. No big A in sight. So much for 100+ years of kingdom rule.
