Is this proof that the flood was regional?
by silent ini stumbled across a scripture today.
it's numbers 13:33 "and there we saw the nephilim, the sons of anak, who are from the nephilim, and in comparison we seemed like grasshoppers, both to us and to them.. now if they honestly believed that they saw the nephilim, it would mean that some nephilim would have had to survive the flood or that the hijinks of the fallen angels before the flood, happened again shortly thereafter.
the only other thing i can come up with is that nephilim was some kind of generic word that implied giant proportions, but not necessarily the nephilim.. comments from the more educated appreciated.. silent.

Thanks for your input everyone. I personally think the Bible has a bit more credence so as to not be written off as a myth. I approach it as a book of truth and go from there.
Then why you ask first for educated people to answer you ? If you just wanted believer people to answer you?

Certainly feel free to continue telling me that it's all lies and fables.
cofty didn't say it's lies or fables, he says it's myth. It's something totally different!
With me you will have a lot of book to read, my dear.
You can read this three books of the french (christian) anthropologist René Girard, who explain very great the power of the myth on a civilisation. There is no civilisation, even now, without its own foundation myth!
2. Things hidden since the foundation of the world
3. The violence and the sacred
The reading of these three very interesting books, will make you stop to think that myth are lies!
(you can read long excerpts of these books on amazon)

Do you think the Watchtower will arrange a low interest loan for me?
You'd better go at the bank ask the more expensive renewal credit : the interest rate will be cheaper...

Poster country flags and privacy
by Simon inthe new forum originally had a little country flag next to each post showing the country that the post was made from based on the geoip encoding (the country the ip address is from).
before i switched over to the new site someone made an issue about it violating their privacy and i didn't want to complicate and confuse the switchover with policy debate at the same time as technical issues so removed the flags even though i disagreed.. someone has already requested it as a feature and i think it should be added back so i thought it's now time to open the discussion and get everyone's opinions.
first, the reason i think it should be shown:.

Also, I can even see a kind of tradition or rite of passage developing, whereby whenever someone with the generic flag has fully extricated himself from Watchtower and is no longer afraid of or care about, being shunned or DF'd he goes into his profile and changes the flag from being generic to being his actual flag signalling to all that he is finally free, having fully escaped Watchtower's stateless "no part of this world" prison and rejoined the real world society of his homeland.
I really like this idea

what DO current Jws say at doors?
by sowhatnow ini mean, anyone with a real bible and half a brain doesn't need to log onto a website and read nonsense.. its not a bible study when you present someone a book or magazine to read along in.. its not the gospel, when its not about jesus.
so what is being pushed in the service meeting to be done at doors?.
and with what result expected?
