  Jesus died on a stake?

  you've got to love the watchtower.

  they must think that the general population has no bible available to it.

  while scrolling through a list of their beliefs on the official site, there was one that really caught my eye because of its sheer ludicrousness.

  you're correct on the matthew isuue being "up in the air" as far as proof.

  the truly ugly thing is that we recently had a talk that was about how jesus died. the speaker brought up the medical study that i cited saying that the study proved that jesus' arms could nor have been at 90 degree angles to his body because he could survive indefinately. he (or the society) failed to mention the part about him lasting less than 30 minutes if he was crucified the way the watchtower shows.

  selective research at it's best!!!!

  if he had his hands extended directly over his head he would have asphyxiated in under 30 minutes. there have been medical studies on this that are quoted on the freeminds web site.

  also matthew says that the sign was above his head, not above him or above his hands, a minor point but there nontheless.

  this was just so hilarious that i had to send it to the board.

  originally there was a nifty link to an old light website (it's amazing that even some dub websites can now officially be considered "old light", heh!

  ) given to us by good old jt, and here is a quote from it:.

  xander...you make a great point

  how many of us or our families would be alive today if we were born in the "good old days" before 1914?? i know my wife would have died in childbirth with our first child.

  before the 20th century if we were to have 6 kids we could only count on 3 or 4 making it to adulthood. just think...nearly everyone would have lost a child to death....truly critical times hard to deal with.

  I'M GLAD I LIVE NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  2cor 2:6 says that the sinner (from 1st corinthians) was rebuked by the MAJORITY, so that means some did no follow Pauls counsel. He didnt condemn them for it either.

  when i was in dub-dom....i used to hate eating out....my ex always made us bow our heads and close our eyes tight shut while he gave thanks out loud.

  did you do that in public??

  or did you do it discreetly with your head bowed but eyes not shut....or.....head in hand...hoping people would think u were in deep thought?

  i used to go to a kingdom hall that was previously a church so this explains a lot!!! how dare the elders buy a deeminized church for our pure worship!!!!!! well as long as they got a good deal on it i guess it's alright.

  my mother felt the need to discuss the dateline episode.

  the elder said he had not seen it but heard about it.

  he said, "of course, sexual abuse is a crime.

  i believe that in the intro to the show jane pauley says that this show was compiled before the catholic story broke in january. if you have it taped look for that. i may be mistaken.
