  I do not see how not liking evidence invalidates it. I also do not see how conclusions about evidence invalidates it.

  Chitty

  i've learned that many years ago, there was a man named brother chitty of some prominence in the jehovah's witnesses organization.

  it fact, chitty was a member of the governing body.

  chitty was asked to resign his position after serving for many years and nothing much was ever said about it to jehovahs witnesses.

  You have no idea how you belittle people by your comments sometimes

  That is another subject matter and you also posted other subject matters. And we can discuss all of these discuss subject matters.

  But what does that have to do with it being unfair to defame a man from accusations without first listening to his defense?

  The men that you are referring to were good men, they served the best they could. Whatever failings they had does not cheapen any of the good they did or tried to do. Also, It is unfair to defame a man from accusations without first listening to his defense.

  Happy Pi Day

  by dothemath in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  tomorrow is march 14 (3.14), so its known as pi day, to honour the all-important constant.. incidentally, the bible has been criticized by mathematicians because the scriptures give a very poor value of pi.. the scripture is based on 1kings 7: 23 and reads as follows:.

  "and he proceeded to make the molten sea ten cubits from its one brim to its other brim, circular all around; and its height was five cubits, and it took a line of thirty cubits to circle all around it".

  now that shape is actually mathematically impossible to construct, because if the diameter is 10 cubits, the circumference would have to be 31.4159 cubits.

  prologos, I am still savoring in my mind your post that defines faith by contrasting it with wishful thinking.

  Now please inform this ignoramus ,about the impossible shape mathematically speaking .smiddy

  I wrongly concluded that you were referring to me, you should have . I figured wrong. I am sorry. fisherman

  But also, when I said : 'maybe below', I was not alluding to your stature, I was referring to the circumference below the brim as prologos explained.

  Happy pie day vs the weeping wall.

  Conclusion (there are others): The Temple did not exist, nor did the Mikveh, nor does the weeping wall exist today. Or circles were not around back then or laws of geometry did not apply or they did not know how to make circular circles because smiddy is smart.
  

  Or there is more to understand about the measurements recorded. (maybe below ????)

  this guy, dale standridge, was the coordinator of the body of elders in the eureka east congregation in humboltd county california.

  http://johnchiv.blogspot.com/2015/11/100000-bail-for-dale-standbridge.html?m=1.

  it's not getting a lot of play in the press for some reason.

  It appears that that CA must be the child abuse state. I read on the news that in NY, depending on your religion, the DA lets incestuous child abuse just sly through like a sleeping dog - but that is only what I read on the news, not what I am saying or my opinion.

  "Beware the Ides of March!"

  As a kid, I always figured that all pies were round, and sweet. I could not figure out why they called chicken pie, pie or pizza pie, pie. -or square pizza pie, pie? -Go figure!

  So when I admitted to having a basic education don't get the wrong idea.

  Did you take debait when I underlined High School?
