  The Bottomless pit is CERN Rev 9

  by artcritic in

  2. current

  rev 9 : 1 and the fifth angel blew his trumpet, and i saw a star fallen from heaven to earth, and he was given the key of the shaft of the bottomless pit; 2 he opened the shaft of the bottomless pit, and from the shaft rose smoke like the smoke of a great furnace, and the sun and the air were darkened with the smoke from the shaft.. this is the fifth trumpet .

  when the pit or well is opened it says , and from the shaft rose smoke like the smoke of a great furnace, and the sun and the air were darkened with the smoke from the shaft .

  now for something to darken the sun from the viewpoint of earths observers it must be some incredible event.

  Fossil fuel plants make a lot more smoke than nuclear reactors even if they were to melt down.

  Hi Lostfromthefaith, I was the same age you were when I made the mistake of joining the religion that most members of this forum used to be in.

  What is as important as finding out what's good for you is realizing what's not good or even dangerous to you. Read all you can but don't join any religion. I hope that in your studies you come to the realization that the Judeo-Christian bible is an insane religion which contradicts itself and is evil. This link will show you why you shouldn't respect the Bible.

  Yes, it's all fake, God and devil, heaven and hell but life can be rich without these religions. If your mind insists on having a religion then, and I speak as an atheist, Buddhism is the least destructive and non dictatorial religion.

  CO kept mispronouncing "debt"

  by Red Piller in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  so, this happened a while ago - but i never posted on it.

  during a co visit, he gave a talk relating to jesus ransom (i think) and the "debt" that was owed by sin, etc.... he kept saying "debt" and he kept pronouncing the "b".

  so it sounded like "deb-t".

  "Aluminium -> Aluminum (sounds to us like the person is having a stoke while trying to say Aluminium)"

  Aluminum has two different spellings and pronunciations. For example: http://www.howjsay.com/index.php?word=aluminum (audio).

  2. bible

  as a member on bart ehrman's blog, i am able to ask him direct questions.is jehovah in the bible?.

  question:.

  how firmly grounded in reality is the claim of jehovahs witnesses that the divine name (jehovah) belongs in the new testament?.

  @ Perry:

  Bart Ehrman is a tragic figure, and a heretic.

  "Ehrman rejects the deity, sinlessness, miracles, and bodily resurrection of Jesus. He believes that the Christian faith is a myth and that at least 19 of the books in the New Testament are forgeries"

  There are plenty of Atheist, Agnostic and non Judeo-Christian scholars with a deep interest and understanding of the Bible. Those who study mythology don't have to believe in the myths. Your calling them "heretic" is no different than the Watchtower calling us apostates.

  Please help me figure out my dreams

  hi everyone, this may be the stupidest post ever.

  i am stumped for an answer and would love to hear your opinions, though.

  every week or two for the last couple of years, i have a dream--or at least that's what i'm calling it--that consists of me waking up or thinking that i've waked up, and seeing the ceiling of my darkened bedroom filled with algebraic equations.
