alex - thank you for your offer to have a conversation about evolution.. i accept the scientific evidence that all life - including humans - evolved from a common ancestor through unguided evolution over millions of years.
this isn't even a controversial position in the scientific community.. the evidence rests on the data from many interconnected fields including paleontology, comparative anatomy, geology and especially genetics.
it is no exaggeration to say that the evidence for your own non-human ancestry is contained in every cell in your body.. it is my experience that jws are generally quite ignorant (not in a pejorative sense) of the scientific case.
Great topic -- Hang on Alex and take advantage of learning from Cofty (our resident science genius) who is taking his valuable time and sharing knowledge to educate -- as well as others onboard who contribute and make excellent posts. Try to consider options (not always easy) and you'll come out the other side happier - the truth (reality) will set you free and makes sense vs. the 'feel good' emotions religion provides at times.
TD - thanks for the photo/analysis.
first of all, there's a new imaginary picture of jws during the great tribulation:.
then there's a picture of a jw family refusing to listen to "apostate lies" via pre-programed, self imposed information control:.

HAhahahaha - thanks for the warning! I think I remember those words - the singing was the most stress free part of the meetings.
I'm so sorry what you've endured re/your (I can't call them 'fathers' when I sense they're toxic but don't want to be rude) -- you know who I'm referring to. I have an egg donor that's a real piece of work. They reap what they sow - unfortunately, who cares after one is up and gone - too late.

august 14th 2019 marks the date that new york state will allow civil litigation for child sex abuse claims against all institutions and individuals for a period of one year, regardless of how long the abuse has occurred.. i'm curious how this will play for wt.. any opinions?.

AWESOME! I'm sure thanks go to Irwin Zalkin, Esq. and our renown, Barbara Anderson.
WT will have to hire some real guns in the legal community for this litigation -- not that they don't already.
ok... so the william sisters have in the past spoken openly about their faith by saying they are jehovah witnesses.
but do they attend regular meetings?
door to door ministry?
OTWO - Maybe to use them to attract members. That photoshop pic was Williams at 150 L Bs ago. I don't think the cult is too picky about their members -- they side with rapists and con artists.

Lofts? lololol - 8 loons must be sharing/spreading the wealth. Perhaps Mr. Irwin Zalkin, Esq. will file documents soon to shed some fear on the WT leaders. If only - but fear created the WT cult. Alcohol sales on the east coast will skyrocket for sure.
is this a bad joke or "fake news"?.
nbc new york is claiming "attorneys are expected on monday to announce the filing of lawsuits in king's county supreme court against eight members of the governing body of the jehovah's witnesses for alleged child sexual abuse claims.".
eventhough i would enjoy to see this happen i am very suspiciouse concerning nbcs reliability with this case.. https://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local/happening-today-nj-water-cosby-appeal-epstein-probe-536740491.html.
I fear punk's comment but maybe justice will protect the innocent even under religions' freedom to commit criminal acts.
silent no more: the survivors.

God speed/Thor speed/whoever -- too good to be true but if this is factual -- YES!
i had gotten a phone call from a brother who was really upset.
he said there was a resolution passed that everyone is in agreement to the selling of the elmira hall.
the strange thing is at the congregation picnic an elder told him that a few years ago the deed to the hall was signed over to the org.
