Nothing more awesome than being the nonbelieving husband chauffeur blasting Bob Marley playing "We'll be forever loving Jah" while pulling into the KH parking lot sporting a beard long hair wayfarers handlebar moustache and a cowboy hat and getting a backhanded compliment, "nice bass." by some elder, to which I reply "thank you!" then getting a talk by my wife that I totally brush off with a "whatever."

Jehovahs Witnesses and the Curse of Music.
by donny injehovahs witnesses and the curse of music.. .
i was inspired to write this after listening to a recent podcast of the thinking atheist by seth andrews.
as many of you know, seth was a devout christian who not only loved contemporary christian music but was one of the hosts of a popular morning show on kxoj in tulsa, oklahoma in the 1990s.

JW Rumspringa
by SonoftheTrinity inare jehovah's witnesses on their way to practicing amish style rumspringa?
basically pushing young people out into the world and seeing who comes back with their faith intact.
after so many generations of discouraging education, it seems like an easy way to ensure that there are some educated born-ins.

Well the polygamists in Utah do basically the same thing. They became so authoritarian that they created an atmosphere of hostility toward the next generation of young men so that they can have the young women.
It seems like the more millenarian the JWs become, the more they glorify the older generation as the older generation can't bear the thought that the crescendo of history at Armageddon doesn't happen in their generation, thus making their faith and their life insignificant. The temptation to take their frustration out on the next generation will be there.

Aliens exist and YHWH (Jehovah) was one of them.
by Jehovah Was An Alien in"the constellation of the seven stars forming the pleiades appears to be the crowning centre around which the known system of the planets revolve even as our suns planet obey the sun and travel in their respective orbits.
it has been suggested, and with much weight, that one of the stars of that group is the dwelling place of jehovah and the place of the highest heavens; that is the place to which the inspired writer referred to when he said: "hear thou from thy dwelling place, even from heaven" (2 chronicles6:21) ; and that it is the place to which job referred when under inspiration he wrote: "canst thou blind the sweet influences of pleiades, or loose the bands of orion" – job 38:31"
the constellation of the pleiades is a small one compared with others which scientific instruments disclose to the wondering eyes of man.

We have three big alien religions in this country. The most infamous is the Church of Scientology, the most political is the Nation of Islam, and the sexiest one is of course Le Raëlianisme. L. Ron Hubbard, Louis Farrakhan, or Raël and his assistant, Miami T.V.'s sexy Jenny Scordamaglia pick your poison. Now Raël says he met the extraterrestrial named Yahweh. Jehovah was an Alien are you a follower of Raël? -

It's too much like real life, less people means less drama, so the scenarios are limited, but that makes me think of how boring a world with just JWs would be. -

The Ismailis are the richest, and their Caliph, the Agha Khan is richer than the Queen of England. -

Why do American Christians stand with Muslim Nations on the Question of Evolution?
by fulltimestudent insome statistics.
this graph charts national responses to the statement, "human beings, as we know them, developed from earlier species of animal," and show some strange bedfellows.. .
as you see, a huge majority (70% and higher) of western europe people surveyed, accept evolution (in some form).

Because according to the book 'Holy Blood, Holy Grail' and my Grandmother, I am a descendent of Jesus Christ and Mary Magdalene via my Merovingian bloodline. I'm glad this is an anonymous forum. I have my doubting moments, but what would my ancestors think?
