  The Rainbow Myth

  by Ranchette in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  we've all heard the bibles' explanation of how the rainbow first appeared.

  now i not an expert in science but i believe rainbows have occured every since since light and moisture in the air have existed.. that would be way before the alledged global flood.. my dictionary describes a rainbow asan arch of prismatic colors found in the sky oposite the sun and caused by refraction, reflection and dispersion of light in raindrops.. my dictionary describes rain this way the condensed vapor.

  of the atmosphere falling in drops.. here's watchtowers definition of rain from the insite book page 728,. a vital part of the cycle by which water that rises into the atmosphereb as vapor from land and water surface of the globe and falls to the ground.....at an early point in the history of the preparation of the earth "god had not made it rain upon the earth "but" a mist would go up from the earth and it watered the entire surface of the ground.gen2:5,6;1:9-13. hmm,sounds like rain to me..

  peacable = true religion

  by Moxy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  please help me out a bit with this.. jws, as a religion, are taught to live peacably.

  they do not go to war nor will they generally support it.. now, if i were to play the role of an apologist, i think i would just keep hamering on this point.

  "catholic killing catholic and protestant killing protestant" was such a great phrase and ties in so nicely with johm 13:35. now, let me play devils advocate and hear some rebuttals.

  Jehovah's Witnesses and arguing...

  by Abaddon in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  one thing i have noticed, both in my own reportoire of personal habits and in those of others posting on xjw boards, is the tendency to argue.. i contrast this to a few other boards i've frequented on a variety of topics.

  obviously there are disagreements, but xdub boards can get really crazy at times.. there is this tendancy for xjw's to argue like rabid dogs; hell, it's not just the x's who do it, current jw's are just as bad.. this is over and above the normal 'spit on the mat and call the cat a bastard' atmosphere that often prevails on discussion boards (although if you ever want to see a really polite board i suggest you go to a lifestyle bdsmer's board!!)..

  are we all psychos?.

  So Sad....

  by StifflersErSlayersBrother in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  imagine this.. a little child,about 3 or 4, sitting there, looking around.... he leans over and sees his shoe is untied, he looks up at his parent who doesn't seem to care much, almost falling asleep, so he leans over and ties it all by himself for the first time!

  he smiles proudly and looks up at his parent and tuggs on their shirt.

  the parent looks down with anger and pinches the little boy on the arm real hard.

  i know if you're some woopdeedoo jw you didn't mingly with the 'worldy' but those who did or do or will or...argh...ok. they think 'wordly' people are going to burn and be destroyed in armageddon so if they have love or friendship for a worldly person how do they deal with this 'truth'?

  1. a well-known american president who emancipated the slaves and made a famous speech at gettysburg once said something nice about the bible.

  what a fine attitude!

  today, millions find true peace of mind and spiritual happiness in the pages of that historical, holy book.
