Google AAWA and do a search on here if you want to know about it.
In any case, IMO cult memorial observations are a good thing.

I was "totally" stopped in my tracks by an "atheist" comment.
by booker-t ini must admit i can at times be a little "egotistical" when it comes to knowledge and the bible.
i have studied the bible for so long and have always had a passion for the bible as a jw and as an ex-jw.
i guess that is all i have left when it comes to religion and as humans we do tend to stroke our egos.

So why woudl God go through the trouble of "hiding" this massive even from just a few thousand years ago, from the fossil record? Why would he allow us to see all of history...except for the flood?
And then tell someone to write a book about it and demand they believe it just because the book says so. And to believe all that in an incredibly inaccurate book , at that.

There are some pretty good websites with detailed analyses of the ark story. Too much to even post here. IMO the ark story is one of the clearest examples of why the bible isn't true. There is just so much incorrect and impossible about the story. There is just no way it could be true.

The scans and quotes I posted earlier are all from jwfacts.com, fyi.
It has occurred to me lately that Gen X and younger may shut their brains off when we talk about 1975, because it was "so long ago" in their view...so I thought...hmmm...I remember stuff about the 20th century. That was the "save face" move after the '75 fiasco, the way they got us to refocus on Thee End.
So here we have a set of failed prophecies in print, right there in black and white, dated 14 years ago! That should be pertinent to every jw alive today.

Am I a judgmental bastard or just one of the last sane persons on this planet?
by skeeter1 inso, i happened to see a young lady.
she's about 13 or 14, can't be more than 16 years old.
fresh faced, rosy cheeks, and a little pudgy.

She has done some things to her outward appearance that seem like rebellion.
Teens' frontal cortex is not fully developed; they aren't known for good judgement.
Rebellion is a developmental behavior in adolescence.
We probably don't know much else about this girl, other than what she did to her outward appearance.

About Human Birth- (Which I've just seen) First Child today
by HowTheBibleWasCreated ini have seen many witnesses with 4,5,6,7 kids.
no problem with that.
they are mostly loving families but today i experianced the birth of my son.. the emotions of my wife... the pain... the fear... the hope combined with the joy of the birth and seeing my wife reaction when she held the baby was well balanced.. .

Congratulations
Adam and Eve sin and God curses Eve with birth pangs.- Then why worship a sick violent, horrifing diety like that??? << What I saw today was not the result of a loving god.
This is making me giggle a little. I saw a birth once and had the same reaction. Everyone around me was like, "Oh, doesn't that make you want to have a baby? It's so beautiful."
Um, HELL NO.
It was NOT beautiful to see a woman's soft bits be basically split in half like something out of a bad alien movie. I could not believe she didn't pass out or die from the pain.
And the thought, "I want to have a baby," could not have been further from my mind. Instead I wanted to have a chastity belt soldered onto my hips, with my legs crossed, while I was moving to a convent on an island in a shark-infested ocean, with doors that lock from the outside, so I'd have zero chance of becoming pregnant.
