  I wonder how long before The Watchtower and Awake! are only available at the ‘museum’. 🤣

  i see posts that evans does not seem to like being removed.

  i guess he is not a lot different than the control cult he left.

  his rebuttal to the zoom assembly he said that dawkins made some silly comments about gender.

  Dawkins has commented that chromosomal gender remains fixed, which is true, and is the cherry-picked part that conservatives latch onto in their opposition to “trannys” (as described earlier in this thread), but those people tend to ignore that Dawkins also said he would still refer to a person as their preferred gender ‘identity’ out of courtesy, which many of the right-wingers would refuse to do on ‘principle’. Very few of the people who express strong opinions about transsexuals are actually affected by them in any way, and as is usually the case, the positions of the ultra left and ultra right groups on the whole issue are emotive, noisy, and a bit dim.

  Evans briefly alluded to Dawkins’ comments to address the fact that it would be erroneous to dismiss Dawkins as an evolutionary biologists on the basis that he said something on Twitter that was poorly received.

  It’s really strange that people who already don’t like Evans are ‘shocked’ when Evans says something they disagree with, and stranger still that they’re still listening to him.

  You can call a position you disagree with ‘virtue signaling’ and call that thing ‘cowardice’ if you want, but it doesn’t change the fact that it really is just an opinion. Back in reality, Dawkins’ opinions about transsexuals (expressed on Twitter 🤦‍♂️), and Evans’ views thereof, are irrelevant tangents from Dawkins expertise as a biologist. But by all means keep yelling into the wind about how you don’t like Evans’ opinions about stuff.

  He follows what ever way the popular winds are blowing.

  Maybe, but if so, why do you care? You can have an opinion but he can’t?

  Likely anticipating irrelevant tangents in the comments, and probably therefore as a precursor for deleting any such comments. I would have simply not mentioned it myself. And also deleted any irrelevant comments.

  mickbobcat:

  It seems Evans wants to virtue signal to the masses and be in the clique instead of really talking about an issue.

  From the context of his actual statement, it seems as though he didn't want to go off on some ad hominem tangent about issues that are not related to Dawkin's expertise as a biologist.

  We are pleased to inform you that the Governing Body decided that one new issue of the public edition of The Watchtower and one new issue of Awake! will be produced for 2022. Additionally, it has been decided to reprint two issues of The Watchtower and two issues of Awake! from previous years.

  Already recycling previous issues and down to just one new issue of each magazine per year. And it's worded as if the rank-and-file should be grateful. 🤣

  scholar:

  Your comment is indicative of despair and desperation and fails to acknowledge that the said scholar loves facts and has no time for dogma.

  All evidence for the period confirms that Jerusalem was destroyed in 587 BCE. The planetary observations are just one more means of confirmation, but poor ‘scholar’ rejects them by necessity.

  The JW chronology is out of step with reality by 20 years, as independently determined by the Bible, Assyrian history, Egyptian history, Babylonian history, Babylonian financial documents, and the literal heavens. But ‘scholar’ will cling to mother Watch Tower.

  The fact is that if the Watch Tower Society announced tomorrow that Jerusalem was destroyed in a different year (like when they previously insisted it was in 606), ‘scholar’ would jump right on board. He doesn’t care about the facts, just his religious dogma.
