Anyone going to the convention this weekend?
by cinnamon1642 injust wondering if anyone was going to one of the conventions that start this weekend in the us?
if so it'd be interesting if it was recorded and could be posted to hear if there are any other new changes and to confirm previous announcements regarding it.

Noah's ark - Can't believe I once actually thought it was true
by sam_sane_now inwhen i was a jw i didn't even question that the noah's ark story might not be true.
i didn't realise that it wasn't achievable for a handful of people to gather literally millions of animals - two of each kind - and fit them into a boat where they would all survive for many days.
i didn't think about the fact that if the highest mountain was covered with water then how could plant life like trees and flowers come to exist again, especially so soon after, with the raven grabbing an olive leaf was it?

Noah amazingly managed the construction of this original Titanic and managed to equip it with food etc and somehow managed to warn EVERY human being alive at the time in the ENTIRE world that this global end was coming, seriously this guys time management was on a par with Santa Claus.....amazing. If he was alive today his project management skills would be very much in demand

Was everyone really vegeterian pre-flood?
by blkblk13 inok it's late and im bored and this might ramble a bit but i got to thinking, the wbts always proposes that everyone, b/f god gave noah permission to eat meat, was vegeterian.
witnesses always talk about how in the new system we will all go back to being vegeterian since i think in isaiah it says the the lion or wolf will graze and eat grass like the lamb or something and it was never gods plan for us to eat meat.. this doesn't sound right to me.
why would god make animals begin to eat each other if it was not according to his plan?

I was wrong
by Junction-Guy inthis is hard for me to say, i don't even know where to begin.. .
first off i was wrong for judging a whole group of people based on the actions of a few others.. .
there have been many courteous replies from some of the gay posters on here, and i know it must have been hard considering all the things that i said.

Do you think the Society has spies on sites like this?
by easyreader1970 innot that any of them would post, but do you think that they have people who they secretly have visit anti-jw sites and forums like this just for the purpose of seeing what people are saying about them and what their current members might stumble upon?.
if you google jws, the first couple are official, the next two are wikis, then you have an anti-jw site and then there's this one.
any current or potential member that is looking for more information than is published by the wbts will be directed to these sites.

Of course they check out the sites, how would they know "the dangers of the internet" if they didn't. If your income depended on keeping hold of your members and a load of pesky people online were nicking them from you, you'd want to know what was going on. Plus they can look at what issues people have and slowly adjust doctrine accordingly, it is what i would do

Add to that list those insects which lay their eggs in the bodies of other insects which then proceed to hatch and eat the unfortunate host alive. Yes if God created them to have that life cycle then he is one real twisted guy, I mean what sort of mind comes up with that. Of course in evolutionary terms it is a pretty much perfect set up hmmmmmm
Dinosaurs ate meat hahahaha I like that one
Humans are omnivores and have those pointy sharp clearly not for eating plants style teeth at the front of their mouths to prove it, oh that and the fact that they have predatory eyesight with the eys facing forward kind of gives it away as well.
Common sense is so uncommon these days

One Reason Why I Worship the God of the Bible
by snowbird inwhile this may be construed as a rebuttal to nvr's thread re: why i post about atheism, that is not my intent.. it is my intent, however, to show how i developed a belief in and love for the god of the bible.. my paternal grandfather, who died before i was born, was a baptist preacher, so you could say i cut my teeth on the bible.
i loved having it read to me, and once i learned how, reading it for myself.
i'm convinced that spirituality runs deep in my blood.. i've always had such a strong sense of right and wrong that injustices make me literally sick.

The bible is the word of god
How do we know it?
The bible says it is the word of God
How can we believe that?
Because God is telling us it
But...........how......................?? Screw it we are going round in circles
This is called circular reasoning

So like are you gay or what? Repressing your true self will only bring you anger and frustration, also just because you have had some bad experiences with the gay community does not mean you should be untrue to yourself. Most straight people have some real crappy experiences with relationships before they find their soul mate/true love etc, they don't generally decide to throw it all in.
