  Where was Noah's flood ?

  by a Christian in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  one of the things that has long been debated is the location of noah's flood.

  the most popular, and most common claim, is that the flood was in mesopotamia, or present day iraq.

  but, as has been pointed out on this forum before by alan f and others, the major problem with this theory is that the entire area drains into the persian gulf.

  FUNKYDEREK: It's an absurdly ridiculous idea - on a par with saying that Hamlet rode a dinosaur.

  You mean the Flintsones is not a documentary?

  What about the guy next to Jesus at his crucification? He belived and that was it.

  Thats not completely true. According to the New Expanded Version, the following was left out of most manuscripts. "After Jesus invited him to paradise, he looked down at beckoned the nearest man to approach. "Look in my waistband and grab the paper and take it" Then he expired. As the man looked at the paper he sighed a breath of relief. The thief had turned in his first field service report with .004 minutes.

  Heard is just an uncle tom who wants to live in the big house with master

  While this statement may be a little politically incorrect. it's proabably not that far from the truth. A friend I have known for several years who had served a sentence in Bethel, told me that in the early 1990's, the GB was often referred to as the Good Ol' Boys club, which it was. It had been over 110 years since the Society had been established and over 60 years since the gates of Heaven closed in 1935 and still there was not one non-European on the GB. This despite the fact that the Org claimed to be out of all nations, tribes, peoples and tongues. The GB felt this increasing pressure and eventually relieved it somewhat when Mr. Herd was appointed.

  Fiction or non? About dubs or something else? Who's the intended audience

  Well it's about JW's so it has to be fiction. The intended audience in anyone who has hard earned money they can throw away.

  How did you "expand" your Field Service time

  by donny in

  2. friends

  i remember when a brother named donis and i used to go out in field service on the weekends we took advantage of our congregations large territory.

  we each had about nine return visits and we would pick one on the southern end of the territory and afterwards drive to one in the northern part and then back again.

  along the way we would throw in laundry mat to dump a lot of the magazines that were given to us by other brothers/sisters who needed room in their garage.

  Never converted anyone either. Extremely proud of that.

  Ditto!! That's one thing that really helps me sleep at night is that I never converted anyone.

Along the way we would throw in laundry mat to dump a lot of the magazines that were given to us by other brothers/sisters who needed room in their garage. This made an hour last anout 5 or 6. I remember in 1986 we were placing Awakes and Watchtowers dated from the 1960's in the laundrymats and Dr. office waiting rooms. One time we hit the same laundrymat twice in one day and as we went inside for the second time, we heard an old man ask his wife who was standing by the dryers "What the hell is this magazine talking about? The title of the article is 'Why are you looking forward to 1975? ' Isn't that lookin' backwards?" We both ran to the car so we could bust out without anyone noticing.

  So how did you "expand" your field service time.

  This has to be a bunch of crap. Just look at the following quote from a letter a person wrote about the Society putting the WT and Awake online.

  Brother and Sisters this is a blessing to me because I cannot read the WT and AW because of my disability. I fall asleep immediately when I read the printed page. BUT I can read forever on the computer.
