  The Great Pyramid - a new (to me) theory on its use and purpose

  by dropoffyourkeylee in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  with the jw connection to the great pyramid, i thought this audience might find this video interesting.

  i find it very reasonable in presenting a new (at least to me) theory that the pyramid was designed as a place of pharoah-worship and the seemingly convoluted design of the passages, with granite blockes, etc, was mainly to prevent looting of the pharoah's tomb.. interestingly, there are several photos (32:36 and elsewhere) presented which were sourced from john and morton edgars' 1909 pyramid passages book, which authors were bible students from scotland who wrote and lectured about the pyramid and the early bible student beliefs on the pyramid.

  i think they left the wt after rutherford ditched the pyramid beliefs, but maybe someone can fill in the blanks on that.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=itaqsrlg9wq&t=1s.

  Early Christian Symbols - Modern JW symbol

  by moomanchu in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  our visit to rome and tour guides taught me a little about these symbols.. it made me realized how ignorant i was about to them.

  of course the reason i was so ignorant about them is that they are demonized by the wtbs.. since a lot of these symbols are simply letters of jesus's name, it struck me how the jw.org letters symbol is good, .

  but the letters symbol for jesus is bad!.

  perhaps we could post the pictures the wt have presented in their literature that depict their version of paradise here for comment/discussion:.

  from: spirits of the dead​—can they help you or harm you?

  do they really exist?.

  "The Garden of Eden with the Fall of Man" two Flemish artists, Jan Brueghel the Elder (1568-1625) and Peter Paul Rubens (1577-1640).
  

  Overload of things to see at the Vatican, Sistine Chapel a little oversold. Saint Peter's Bassillca and piazza awesome. Visited catacombs also that was awesome as well.

  Almost makes you sympathize wth those naughty angels and their voyeuristic habits.

  Wonder if there were any female angels checking out some built hunks?

  Are there gay and lesbian angels? I'm getting way off track here. LOL

  Voting, why make it easier to vote??

  by moomanchu in

  1. social
  2. current

  democrats are always harping on and on about voting rights and how the ability to vote should be easier and access unrestricted.

  the most progressive ones want to allow prisoners, and illegals with no voter id the ability to vote along with the criminals, drug addicts, and uneducated low lives who already can vote.. .

  after they push for everyone and anyone to be able to vote they then tell us it is a sacred privilege, a duty and honor, and a big responsibility blah, blah ect..... if it is all those grandiose things are true i think it should be harder to vote not easier.

  This is a sweeping statement and insulting by insinuation that others who have joined these groups are stupid.

  "I decided to never again be a mindless gullible drone and join ANY CULT, RELIGION, TRIBE..OR....Political Party."

  I also remember an attorney co-worker's favorite saying:

  "Never forget HALF the people you meet today have an IQ below 100".

  Here is my favorite thought:

  Don't judge people by their IQ's, there are a lot of people smarter than you and I.

  So, when you vote for your Independent candidate aren't you joining that candidates tribe?

  What is the difference?

  liam - Great post.

  Banning or severely restricting guns only hurts the people who obey the laws

  Low income people who do not pay taxes have no skin in the game.

  All they see is if I vote Democrat I can get free shit .

  Almost can't blame them it's the way the system is setup.

  I would do the same in their shoes.

  Regarding the questions about different clothing styles, why does The Watchtower depict them wearing clothing???
  

  Adam and Eve only started wearing clothing after they sinned.

  After we become perfect again, everything must go back to Jehovah's original perfect plan for mankind, the earth and the animals! Therefore everyone must be perfect naked vegans, living forever in harnony with the lions, and tigers, and bears? Oh my.

  RULES & REGULATIONS

  Good points, but maybe in the new system we will all be like Dead Pool.

  Wait if that's the case why even wear hard hats? So confusing!

  One thing I can say for sure, those 2x4's are not from Home Depot they are way too straight.

  I hope they are putting down Trex flooring cause that deck needs to last for ever.
