  Grand and Lesser Apostate Delusions

  by slimboyfat in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  what is it makes some of those wacky apostates appear from time to time claiming russell and the witnesses were/are all part of some great freemason/illuminati plot?

  i'll tell you what it is, and it may explain a few other things for you too!

  people who come up with these theories demonstrate a basic psychological insecurity stemming from their involvement and subsequent disentanglement from the witnesses.

  The OP is clearly an idiot, but some of the responses are well worth reading, especially AlanF, Kid-A, LittleToe, Narkissos and so on.

  hi,i'm lost and a little sad.

  i actually like the jw faith.

  some might call this faith cold, strict, dogmatic but they're just trying to follow rules and give back to god.

  Listened to interesting presentation the other day on human origins by John Walton, Seventh Day Adventist preacher, and professor of chemistry at St Andrews University.

  I don't expect to learn much, I just want to understand what I'm up against.

  I listen to “woman’s hour” on Radio 4 for similar reasons,

  Today's Watchtowe Study, Child Baptism

  by BluesBrother in

  2. bible

  suffice to say that i fundamentally disagree with the point of this article, a cynical attempt to boost numbers.

  it goes against bible precedent and their own long standing practice.

  they timothy as an example of a youthfull christian, a young man.. sure but he was not baptized young .

  Yes I was told if I didn’t get baptised I’d die at Armageddon. My conductor basically said: “we can’t say for definite you need to get baptised or else killed, but if you ask me that’s how I understand it”.

  Neanderthals - Meet Your Ancestors

  by Earnest in

  2. friends

  tonight (sunday, 13th may) at 20:00 on bbc 2 ... for neanderthal believers, agnostics and deniers.. this first programme in a two-part series investigates what neanderthals looked like and and how they lived in their ice age world.

  it turns out that almost everything we thought we knew about them is wrong.

  they weren't hunched, grunting, knuckle-dragging ape-men at all.
