the thing is though Brock the flood was not global even a true theist would sooner or later have to admit it was localised, and there is tons of evidence of tribes spread throughout the Earth that lived prior and after the flood, how do we know the Nephellin didn't reach some far flung corners of the Earth and reside, they are fallen angels I'm sure they were capable of it.

God wipes out humans/wickedness in Noah's Flood but somehow wickedness returns
by RULES & REGULATIONS ingenesis 6: 9-139 this is the account of noah and his family.noah was a righteous man, blameless among the people of his time, and he walked faithfully with god.
10 noah had three sons: shem, ham and japheth.11 now the earth was corrupt in god’s sight and was full of violence.12 god saw how corrupt the earth had become, for all the people on earth had corrupted their ways.
13 so god said to noah, “i am going to put an end to all people, for the earth is filled with violence because of them.

God seems to have alot of failures?
by purrpurr infor an all powerful, all knowing god it seems most of his plans go awry, so why assume that armageddon/ new system will work?
look at the track record.
... adam and eve... went wrong.

everything he/she touched turned to shit, you know the Big A, releasing the devil from the Abyss etc will similarly be a failure

What Is The Most Ridiculous Thing You Have Heard From A Witness?
by minimus ini remember an elder questioning a woman who had admitted to giving and receiving oral sex from her unbelieving mate.
he asked her the most intimate questions which clearly flustered her.
interestingly, she “confessed “ to the elders because her conscience bothered her.

The map of ex Jehovah's-Witnesses and their friends
by Roxie ini am an ex-jw and a member of this forum (not so active lately ;)).
in poland, we created a map of ex-jws (and their friends ;)) to find former friends from the organization or to contact someone living close to them.
many people found each other after many years outside of the organization thanks to this tool.

Lloyd’s new book
by jwfacts ini see there has already been discussion over lloyd’s new book how to leave the jehovah's witnesses.
this includes discussion around his personality, motives and financial gains.
i have written a foreword for this book, because it is an important topic that has not been covered in such a complete format before.

Lloyd Evans' New Book - Is It Really Necessary?
by pale.emperor inso lloyd evans will shortly be releasing his new book how to leave the jehovah's witnesses.
i do enjoy his rebuttals and the stuff he manages to get hold of and leak.
but i'm struggling to understand what he could possibly write to merit a whole book.. all info on how to leave is right here on this forum.

amazing how many still react to Evans being the devil incarnate, he maybe a bit of a Marmite character and I'm sure he'd even admit that he's made mistakes in the past, wouldn't it better to concentrate on the benefits that his book will bring rather than assassinating his character continually? his jwsurvey.org is a truley excellent source in assisting those leaving the cult and thats what we should be focusing on.

Memorial.. To go or not to go
by Emily1987 inso, as some of you will know myself and my husband are in the process of fading.
haven't been to a meeting since beginning of 2017. .
we weren't planning on going to the memorial, but last week my mother broke down and said that we have to go to the memorial even if it's the only meeting i go to this year.

I think its a very important meeting to miss for a variety of reasons, its very much a milestone and loved ones who are jw's and friends etc think that even if you make the memorial once a year there is hope for you, why give them that feeling, miss it because its highly likley youre never show up again in a KH for the rest of your lives, the same is true for me.
