my husband is awake,yay!
we haven't been to meeting since february, although we attended the memorial.
when jws have called us we say we are amazing, everything is awesome much to their shock.
Sounds like a college made in heaven. Where can I enroll? The majority of colleges in the USA are the contrary. Not that sex, drugs, and alcohol play a roll every minute, but it’s frequent enough to have female students yelling rape every 30 minutes.
So yeah, tell those kids that possibly look up to you
husband as a role model that your own life experience in college wasn’t so bad, but
you cannot speak for the real college life experience for all.
Well it’s great to get a degree. I have many, but I don’t get the analogy since killing Archduke Franz Ferdinand is the best held belief World War 1 was started, not to mention that Russell wrote about a completion for the year 1914. Was he correct? Yes he was, unless you’re assuming somehow Russell and the ZWT started it. But I do understand the cultural difference on how things are taught.
My question is, what does genocide that this entire world is guilty of one way or another, just like the British in the 19 century to protect the Crown as it were has to do with the WT. Since you specifically state the USA, Are you related to Piers Morgan? Mate!!
though school i did religious education and my teacher who was religious ruled out evolution because humans are the only creatures who do not want to die, can anyone who understands evolution explain this?.
im 99% on to the theory of evolution, this is just the last stumbling block..
Well for evolutionist, the climax would be the confirmation of the Higgs Boson. Science has been trying since 1964 to confirm the miracle of man. It’s only been 51 years in its logic. Although if proven, not only will it dispel the notion of creation, but evolution to. The conclusion that man achieved the God Particle would imply the existence of a higher being. Not God, Perhaps a Theoretical physicist a singular genius with a God complex, and he has been playing with creation for over 100,000,000 billion years according to Degrassi’s insight of the universe, and it took our species (MAN) this long to conclude the same. That means we have become the God complex (MULTIPLE)-(LUCA) for the next cycle of life after ours is complete (HUMAN). So what’s next? How would Human existence interact with the originator or first achievement in order not to be recycled as an intellectual species that is attempting to occupy the same space since the first God Particle has extinct all other creations according to man’s understanding of natural history.
thank you, jw.net and cofty, for redirecting me to the right organization!.
when i posted why did god permit scriptures to be corrupted?
then i thought, if there is an organization that believes all scriptures are corrupted (which obviously makes it enemy of all religions), that organization is not ordinary, but gutsy, lionhearted, and worthy of close examination!
You guys seem to have missed the point. The original teaching of heighten enlightenment was started by the Hare Krishna. In their belief the soul must be cleansed through levels of enlightenment. However it sounds this offshoot group achieves that in 7 days of cleansing. Since it takes a life time to achieve that goal, these guys go from 0-60 without receiving the benefit of their mistaken concept. This would be more suitable to atheism, purification of the soul verses spiritual awakening.
Lord Krishna, Source of Immortal Wisdom:
Who are we? What is the purpose of our living through one lifetime after another? What is freedom all about, and how can we achieve it?
It's natural for us to ask ourselves these questions. Fifty centuries ago, a great warrior named Arjuna placed them before Lord Krishna.
Though Krishna, transcendent, exists beyond the limits of time, space, and matter, He had come to this world to play the role of Arjuna's charioteer--and to enlighten him.
At the onset of a battle, a battle between Arjuna and his own friends and relatives, Arjuna lost his composure. Surveying the two armies, he was overwhelmed by the pointlessness of what was about to occur. His skin shivering, his mind reeling, tears welling into his eyes, he dropped his bow and sank to the seat of the chariot.
Then, in the midst of the two armies, Lord Krishna spoke to Arjuna the words that have come down to us as the book known as Bhagvad-gita.
Lord Krishna spoke about the meaning of life, the subtle workings of creation, and the understanding of a self- realized soul. He spoke of the science of yoga in all its forms--the path of work, the path of knowledge, the path of mysticism, the path of devotion.
And at last Lord Krishna revealed Himself before Arjuna as the source of everything, the eternal form of the Supreme, the Personality of Godhead.

Carey Barber was playing second violin in that orchestra. Little did either of us think that 58 years later we would still be in the same “orchestra” but making a different kind of music!
Regarding his misguided statements as to what we could expect in 1925, he once confessed to us at Bethel, “I made an ass of myself.”
1974 Yearbook of Jehovah’s Witnesses, pages 130-1.

The assumption is overreaching since it could have meant them other bible students, or Rutherford but for a different reason in1925 or even Russell. It’s a shame that Mrs. Klein is not around to ask what she meant by that statement since Witnesses were going through may harsh trials around that time, many perpetrated by the Catholic Church. Whoever “Could Expect” is far from “Will expect” Since its all word play in this forum.
The same assumption or speculation misinterpreted in 1975.
for the past three years, my husband and i have been watching these sermons by remarkable worldwide speakers.
the biblical truths we have learnt from their presentations, in such a short period of time most definitely tip the scales compared to the truth the jw.org led me to believe i had for over 20 plus years of my life.
thanks to these videos, we have now found the truth and the truth is jesus christ (john 14:6).
Then the question should be, what theoretical manipulation of RNA has to do with your collective reasoning of creation.
At what point did this theory of the so called universal RNA (DNA) decide to manipulate itself to form different strands of DNA or just one, and attached itself to the 3rd planet from the SUN. Hypothetically, it could have done that to any planet in this solar system or any other cognate system
If man can manipulate the RNA of humans, plants, and animals now, then man should have been in the moon over 6000 years ago to celebrate that achievement. Since intelligence cannot over power intelligence. Since it just came to mankind by most part in the 19-21 centuries, then you cannot dispel the notion of a higher being coming into play. Is that higher being God, Alien, Gods, or a very smart theoretical physicist, born 100,000,000 billion years ago?
Since we have a book that categorized that for us by and large at the very least from written language, it would be difficult to surmise, man carried this higher intelligence without first experiencing it.

Correction: pales in comparison to the trials man passed through before that.
It should read, pales in comparison to the trials man has passed through after 1914 on

The JW’s were or are not the only prognosticators of bible truth. While prophets were used in ancient time, Theologians in search of the truth became zealous and anxious to the meaning of Revelation. by the 1800’s. With all that man has been through before 1878 such as the civil war for Americans, and whatever else was going on in your respective countries, pales in comparison to the trials man passed through before that. Before you get confused, I mean by the numbers not actions.
As I continually state: research for yourselves verses accepting what is written in joke facts.
One example comes from this website: http://www.markbeast.com one of many people and religious groups have the same view but get different conclusions. Why because it’s there honest belief that man has but a short time left.
If you have really read the publications of the International Bible Student Association that is linked to Russell and Rutherford, you will find the purpose behind the dates 1925, 1919, etc. Also the IBSA was also interested in other groups that splintered after Russell’s Death, the world conditions and other religious teachings after World War 1.
So study in Dispensationalism, Eschatology, Hermeneutics, brimstone fire, and hellfire so forth and so on to understand the IBSA and just maybe you’ll understand the concept of the 70 jubilee cycle, and then work your way to 1975
the witchtower is being more careful now about putting a date.
out there for the beginning of the great tribulation.
they have learned their lesson from 1975. however they sure.
To the Mayans, it was 2012, however people misunderstood that as well. The Mayans meant the end of a life cycle for them and their calendar.
There is Nostradamus, he concluded the same.
There’s The Catholic: Without the fan far of announcing it, they did it right before your eyes when one Pontiff stepped down and the other took over. What do you think they mean by doing that. The Pope was too sick to continue? NO, every Pope known to us has died at their post in their appointed time. This time however their action was different why? Reference Revelation 11: 3 Yes folks The Catholic hierarchy is preparing for the last days to, but their doing it in secret, so don’t tell, and guess what, that darn number keeps popping up. 1,200 and 3 score = 1,260 X 2=?
