thought i would put this in its own thread.
it another embarrassing statement from the rc (royal commission not regional convention lol).
it's not even one about abuse, its about the jw's stance on science and the bible.
Thought I would put this in its own thread. It another embarrassing statement from the RC (Royal Commission not Regional Convention LOL). It's not even one about abuse, its about the jw's stance on science and the bible. I find it to be a pretty strong statement to have in print.
Mr Spinks also said where there was a conflict between the Bible and science, the Bible would prevail, because all scripture is "inspired by God"
i have not meet all atheists, and it would be foolish for me to assume that all atheists, share the same prototypical view points.
i am inclined to feel that this classifies the views of a large percentage of atheists.
"atheism is, in a broad sense, the rejection of belief in the existence of deities.
I love Perry, the forum wouldn't be the same without him
This is the beauty of not being JW's we can completely disagree and still talk to one another without distain and shunning. Don't feel bad Perry, keep being yourself please.

i'm revisiting an old topic here, but this was a subject of much confusion for me when i was still a witness.
i went to a spanish congregation in the u.s. and it seemed to be taken for granted by most that you needed to cook beef thoroughly to "get rid" of the blood.
i was surprised when i learned that folks in the english speaking hall would order a steak medium-rare and think nothing of it.. it wasn't until after i left the witnesses that it started to occur to me that if the red fluid that was present when you'd cut the beef was blood, cooking it thoroughly wouldn't get rid of it, it'd just cook it and transform it into another color.
Eating low grade raw hamburger is one thing, you are probably going to get some ecoli lol
But I have eaten plenty of beef tartar and carpaccio in my time and rare rare fine dry and wet aged steaks with no issue. Maybe is the delicious whisky I was drinking with it, but honestly you can get ecoli from vegetables that are just not washed well enough. I have never in my life heard of anyone getting a bug from undercooked steak. You sear the outside you are good, hamburger and ground meat all the dirty bits are mixed inside.
and blood who cares, I have eaten boudin noir on numerous occasions lol, I'm going to hell

jws in australia agrees to change procedures in regards to reporting abuse..
I thought this was especially wonderful
"Mr Spinks also said where there was a conflict between the Bible and science, the Bible would prevail, because all scripture is "inspired by God""
Wake up dubs.
You are more creationists than you like to let on.

Perry is here now it's a party!
vincent toole has a history of stating blatant untruths in order to protect the wt.. he is recorded as once saying that shunning was "a myth".. i wonder how linguistically pedantic will he get, and how much double-speak will he employ in order to defend the current wt policies.
my guess is he will try to twist the senior counsel in knots with wordy responses, in the hope they will simply run out of time.. if this fails then i'm expecting some howlers of deception..
so the august broadcast is up and sam herd has a new gold watch.. i watched about 5 minutes until he started about generosity, refered to lett's may broadcast.
it's not compulsive viewing.. george.
