  by JH in

  .

  what's the watchtower's position on resurrection for people out of their religion?.

  where do they draw the line, and say who surely won't be resurrected?.

  I don't know if most JWs would expect Hitler to get a chance. I mean he did try to wipe out the Witnesses, so I was led to believe. Does anyone know better? Hitler's anti-JW stance wasn't made up by wannabe martyrs was it?

  Let's Decorate the Kingdom Hall!

  one thing that always sucked about the kingdom hall was it's blandness.

  bland wallpaper, bland paint, no pictures, no windows, maybe a fake plant or fake flowers, the big sign with the years text, the cork board, and contribution boxes.

  boring.. what would you put into a kingdom hall to make it look more interesting?

  Oh and a lava lamp on the table on stage, gives us something to look at in the rare event that the talk is familiar to us.

  Do you think a disco ball would be asking too much?

  I'd like to put up framed certificates of a Degree in Zoology by the University of Awake! and a Degree in Theology by the Watchtower University up on the wall by the Literature counter.

  Do It Yourself: The ark of the covenant

  by Nathan Natas in

  2. bible

  the ark of the covenant was a primitive (well, it was wood) leyden jar: a capacitor.. the shekinah light was a coronal discharge between the two terminals, which were in the form of the cherubs.. my proposal: a team of aposta-engineers work together to.

  1. calculate the electrical properties of the ark of the covenant.

  2. build a replica ark and determine if it operates within the anticipated performance range.

  My apologies, Peaceful Pete

  I should not have gotten carried away with the debate, hijacking your thread. I think I've said more than enough. My thoughts on this subject are clear for all to see. I'll say no more in rebuttal. Time for ice-cream!!!

  Liberalism is a mental illness.

  You are arguing from a conservative point of view to condemn conservative Muslims. You and conservative Muslims share a distaste for gays, for minority rights, for multiculturalism, for feminists etc. I'm surprised you have the gall to make a peep. Doesn't your speech strike you as self-contradictory? Stay away from diagnosing psychological disorders. You're sitting on the wrong chair in your therapy sessions.

  My post was not to make an apology for Islam. I do not trivialise the errors of her zealots as you have on the wrongs of fundamentalist Christianity. My aim was to highlight the fact that there are Muslims who challenge the dangerous fundamentalism in that religion, a fact that you seem to conveniently and consistently avoid. That such scholars, thinkers, reformers exist shows there are people in that religion who are rational and genuinely peace-loving. These Muslim pioneers are a minority and they need all the help they can get to persuade their fellow belivers, to redefine a new and evolving Shariah that is both socially, politically and religiously beneficial, to raise Islamic thought out of stagnation. Your scare-tactics and hate-mongering doesn't help in this process. In fact, it only seeks to do the opposite by alienating the Muslim community. Have you ever wondered if your efforts are actually aiding the terrorists or those who seek to oppose it?
  Not all Muslims who claim to be thinking individuals are hypocrites. For that kind of inconsistency, we only need to read up on your personal reflections.

  "They are still gonna come after you"

  To do what? Circumcise you? Slam you down onto a prayer mat and force you to recite the Al-Fatihah?

  Puhleaase..., Chicken Little.

  I dislike malicious fundamentalists whether they are JW, Muslim, Baptist, etc. But I do not share in your unbridled prejudice towards a whole group of people. Such a delusory view is not very far from that of a racist who uses stereotypes to justify his hatred towards an entire community.

  Were your ideas inspired by a recent periodical? Can't remember if it was the Skeptics Magazine. Anyone else know which one I'm talking about?
