I’m saying, correctly, that your unevidenced unfalsifiable religious superstitions add nothing but additional assumptions about the nature of the universe.

137I find it interesting that after the cult people still hold on to religion....
by BeaverEater inim not an atheist, makes no mathematical sense, nor does the buy(more) bull(shit) god make any logical sense... maybe a deist on my best day, in the end you cannot get something from nothing, paradox if you ask me... but in reality i just dont care.
while in, and moving out of the cult, its like a roller coaster, emotionally, yet, for me, over time, i just take it one day at a time, and if appeasing some special deity is required, well i guess i failed.
lol.

🤦♂️ your addition of a bunch of religious superstitions - piled on top of the same fundamental things about reality that we recognise in common - are actually superfluous.

🤦♂️ The ‘rules of logic’ arise from the basic understanding that ‘things are what they are and are not what they are not’. These are basic concepts that hold true irrespective of whether things ‘arise by chance’.

The loaded question is an irrational non sequitur that attempts to shift the burden of proof. The question assumes that logic can’t exist at all in a universe ‘based on chance’ (a form of false equivalence) and presents a false dichotomy with Christianity implied as the only alternative.

Aristotle recognised principles of logic long before Christianity, so I guess we should all be worshiping Zeus. 😂
Also, the existence of an all powerful deity violates the laws of thermodynamics and is therefore illogical special pleading.

See Breeze:
If Christianity wasn’t true, you would have no logic at all, much less the ability to spot a fallacy.
Non sequitur, begging the question.

Ah… the ‘fine tuning’ argument. Yawn.
You’ve provided no math, nor even any demonstration that an alternative presentation of the universe is probable or even possible. As expected, your ‘math’ argument is just an argument from incredulity.
Back in reality, the probability that things have already happened the way they happened is exactly 1.

BeaverEater:
Im not an atheist, makes no mathematical sense
Interested to see the math you’ve done to arrive at that rather specific conclusion. I hope it’s not just the usual argument from incredulity.

Remember...Remember...The Sixth of November?
by JW_Rogue insome big announcement or reveal is coming from the borg november 6th, according to the exjw reddit.. https://www.reddit.com/r/exjw/comments/13xljaa/secret_boxes_to_be_opened_only_in_november_6th/.
what do you guys think it could be?.
my guess is a study companion to go with their new jesus series, they really need to rebrand at this point..

WingCommander:
It's the "Study Bible" they've been tolling away on now for several years. Completed and shipped, and these are the first runs. The JW Broadcasting for November is that Monday, so it all coincides. I'm sure Geoffrey Jackson or Mark Sanderson (whichever one collects the old bibles) will get the honour of announcing it to the world.
Unlikely. The 'Study' NWT has been progressively worked on for some time, and the study notes on the online version, which have only been done for the New Testament, go as far as Philemon. Since the content is online already, it wouldn't be 'confidential', and since they haven't finished the study notes for the New Testament, the boxes wouldn't be ready to go out this month.
6 November is the first day of the week that will consider the study articles in the September issue of The Watch Tower, which might give more of a clue if it's something to do with their 'message'. Otherwise, it might be an updated 'Organised' book. (Probably not the 'Shepherd' book, which they're more paranoid about being leaked.)
The 'announcement' about the 'confidential boxes' is only for 'Service Overseers', so the general 'rank and file' won't officially know the boxes exist until November.
(I do suspect they are working on an updated commentary on 'Revelation', though I doubt this is the contents of the 'confidential boxes'.)

Scholar and Fisherman
by Jorden inscholar and fisherman, i started this thread because i didn't want to highjack the one in regard to 588/568.. i just wanted to ask if you were both current active jw's that believe the jw's beliefs?.
do y'all believe the gb are the f&ds?
if the answers are no, then why do y'all defend so passionately the date 607?
