  Before There Was Global Warming There Was Global Cooling
  

  
  A few items for you.

  Global Cooling
  
  "This cooling has already killed hundreds of thousands of people. If it continues and no strong action is taken, it will cause world famine, world chaos and world war, and this could all come about before the year 2000."
  
  -- Lowell Ponte "The Cooling", 1976

  "If present trends continue, the world will be about four degrees colder for the global mean temperature in 1990, but eleven degrees colder by the year 2000...This is about twice what it would take to put us in an ice age."
  
  -- Kenneth E.F. Watt on air pollution and global cooling, Earth Day (1970)

  More of Mormon similarities...

  got this post from an ex-mormon website and the similarities to the jw way of thinking are always enlightening.

  i've got lots of thoughts.

  there are lots of problems with mormonism, and in response mormons have developed a number of responses to "explain" them.

  JW's are genuine but they are still trapped in a cult just like the Mormons.

  I don't know.... my JW friend plays 'games' all of the time, like 'shunning' me for a couple of weeks when they can't answer probing doctrinal questions. From the many accounts I've read here, 'game playing' is something the hardline JWs are good at.

  I don't what Mormons you hang around with, but in all the years I've know many mormons, I've never heard even one of those seven listed. I've got Mormon friends and I know one active JW (and the experiences of dozens of EXs on this site), and let me tell you, the Mormons are NOTHING like the active dubs. Wacky doctrine, maybe....but as people (in general) you couldn't ask for anyone more genuine.

  If so that does not explain the high level of English people taking it seriously.

  Maybe that's because they can only get the BBC.

  'to pray for the anointed, for they are the ones who will suffer more on Satan's last war'...}

  hmmm, I wonder if that statement would give someone second thoughts about partaking of the emblems at the memorial.

  it was august 1998 when i attended my last kh meeting, and i have been unrepently out for 7 years.

  i had my last (and only) visit from an elder i respected six months after that.

  i have been a reader of randy watters as i was leaving.. the two elders at my door at 6:15 this evening were new to the congo - no one i knew would go out in service on a saturday night!

  I said that they wouldn't want me there as I would Partake (I just wanted to mess with their heads). And then I said they should read John 6:53, thanked them for coming, and shut the door.

  good one! I wonder if they'll take the time to read that scripture?

  Actually, who is TimJonz and more important - who is "we"?

  Are Christians required to uphold this law

  Don't think Christians pay too much attention to Exodus. Additional, if any "Christian" did, they too would be facing the death penalty.

  i am one of the moderators on this board.

  i have locked your discussion regarding being gay.

  i have done this for a couple of reasons the responses you are getting are not helpful.
