I tried to fade but they just wouldn't let me go that way....

I remember years ago after my son was born, we took our newborn to the hall and one of the sisters there asked me, "did you sharpen his pencil?" I didn't know what she was talking about so I just ignored her. It wasn't until I got home that it hit me!

JW-Based Names for JW-Based Businesses

while doing some job hunting, i came across an ad for a cleaning business called "paradise cleaning" or something like that.

i'd think it's a 99% chance that the company is a bunch of jws.

what are some of the goofy names you've seen for jw's home businesses?

Pioneer has got to be the most over-used witness business name ever!

I've known Pioneer Maintenance, Pioneer window cleaning, Pioneer Janitorial, Pioneer Eclipse (janitorial supplies), all businesses owned by witnesses. Gymbob

Proof, proof, gimme some proof!!!

by Slappy in

atheists clamor for proof of godas existence.

give us hard, physical proof they say, and then weall believe.

if evolution truly happened, how did that one apersona that evolved from monkeys learn to speak and write?

You say you want to understand the "other perspective", and I'm trying to help you do that....

Instead of dodging the question, why don't you answer it? Instead of trying to insult me by saying I don't add anything to the discussion, why don't you just answer the question?

Instead of telling me to "calm down" (pretty funny, considering you started this thread with 3 exclamation points in the subject), why don't you just answer the question?

Can you answer the question, Why is faith required in your belief system? Gymbob

Has Golden Calf ever been found?

by cameo-d in

just wondering, is there any information as to how big it was?

how did desert wanders carry around so much gold?

wouldn't it have encumbered them?

I say.....if it ever was made, it could probably be held in one hand.....if it was ever made at all and it's not some jewish fable.

Also, if it was made, they certainly didn't grind it up and drink it!

Oh, and if you think that someone asking you a question means you're being attacked, then you really need to control yourself.

Control myself? Right, good response to what I asked you. Ok, I won't type in capital letters anymore...

How about responding to what I asked? Have you given any thought to why you need to have faith in your belief system? You said you were thinking, "outside the box"....

So....Why is faith a requirement? Gymbob

As usual, the believer falls back on, "this is where faith comes in". Faith, faith, faith.....have you ever stopped to ask yourself WHY?? Why do you need to have faith?

Why believe that things that are impossible in our natural world, really did at one time happen? Why not simply believe in what can be proved? It's been know to work pretty well...
