  “considering the millions of Muslims that are moving into our country each year. “

  Really? I never knew that there were millions moving in every year. Do you have a source for that statistic?

  Was it Designed?

  by Jeffro in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the jw website is currently featuring a piece: the shell of the diabolical ironclad beetle​—was it designed?

  it is part of their regular tedious 'was it designed?

  ' series that purports that very very specific animal species must have been specifically designed because of some seemingly amazing feature.. but they seem completely unaware that this directly contradicts their notion that only very broad 'kinds' were required on the mythical 'ark'.

  What do you mean, 6000 years? The Flood, according to the Watchtower, happened 4,394 years ago in 2370BC.

  So, according to them, God created all living things during the original 6 days of creation, then had to bloody well re-create lots of them less than 4,500 years ago.

  (Remember, all animals were vegetarians 4,395 years ago)

  Sydney I’m still confused on your timeline of events.

  You said you had sex with your boyfriend 9 days ago but you’re 18 days pregnant.

  But you then added that you had sex with him months ago. But you’ve now changed ‘months ago’ to 21 days ago

  And you got baptised 17 days ago.

  And you also added that you had sex with him 4 days ago and 5 days ago

  Have I got all that correct?

  Beards vs. Shunning announcements

  by slimboyfat in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  during lett’s announcement that beards are now allowed he elaborated at some length how brothers ought to feel and react to the change in policy.

  he warned brothers not to resent not being able to grow beards earlier if they had wished to do so.

  he also warned brothers who supported the old policy not to allow themselves to wonder what the point of doing so was now that it has changed.

  Pyramid shaped table

  Believe it or not but I can’t see a pyramid shaped table

  A pyramid is a three-dimensional shape. A pyramid has a polygonal base and flat triangular faces, which join at a common point called the apex. A pyramid is formed by connecting the bases to an apex. Each edge of the base is connected to the apex, and forms the triangular face, called the lateral face.

  Surely a pyramid shaped table would be very impractical as a table. I suppose a dead ant could be supported on it but very little else.

  Am I missing something here or am I not insane

  1974 and all that

  by Number 6 in

  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xznh9icm1os.

  i came across this footage recently whilst searching for something completely unrelated and it blew me away!.

  it's from the august 1974 convention at murrayfield, edinburgh and you can clearly see the stage set up still keeping the 6000 years and 1975 mantra going.. what makes this very personal for me is that i was here.

  "worldly" people. From the day they are born they know they are going to get old and die. We, as JW's were brainwashed into thinking we would never get old''

  That's what makes it even more sad than the usual feelings you get for looking at things past.
