  '1600 years of Ice melting in 25 years is a bad omen'

  by designs in

  2. current

  glaciologists from ohio state university have been studying the ice fields in peru.

  tropical peru is home to ice formations 18,000 feet up in the quelccaya region, the largest of these tropical region ice sheets.. the glacier is melting so quickly that plant samples are having to be frozen artifically so that scientists 30 years from now can have something to study, lonnie thompson from the university said in the interview.

  the ice field is the smallest it has been since the last ice age.. peruvians rely on the water from the glaciers, which will be reduced by 50% in their lifetime.

  besty said in number 2 above:

  2 - Why any poster denying the consensus is better qualified than the 98% of climate scientists who agree with the majority opinion that human caused climate change is a fact, similar to evolution and gravity. (putting the deniers in the Flat Earth Club)

  Where did you get the 98% of climate scientists in the above statement? Was looking for a link or quote etc. Thanks

  The building he was giving this discourse in actually reminded me of a large kingdom hall or a small Assembly Hall.

  When the camera at the end showed the audience it even looked like how the rows of chairs at the K.H. were arranged.

  Kinda ironic in a Hitchens sorta way. :)

  If you started an organisation (related to exposing the Watchtower, helping Jw's who are disfellowshipped, or any other worthy cause).. What would it be called and what would you aim to achieve?

  in regards to AAWA

  oh how i wish i could just write out something that would cause you all to know and understand that what i say is true.

  or i wish i could tell yall that i am going to do something like cause an earthquake (with jehovahs spirit backing me) at a certain place and time, then after i posted such info then it occurred just as i said...then maybe you would listen and believe what i say.. .

  and even more so, your lack of knowledge and belief in jehovah and in his word the bible.

  Have you read and do you understand:

  Ezekiel 13

  Yes I have and do but "evidently" you haven't. Allow me to quote the first few verses directly from the NWT for ya.

  13 And the word of Jehovah continued to occur to me, saying: 2 “Son of man, prophesy concerning the prophets of Israel who are prophesying, and you must say to those prophesying out of their own heart, ‘Hear the word of Jehovah. 3 This is what the Sovereign Lord Jehovah has said: “Woe to the stupid prophets, who are walking after their own spirit, when there is nothing that they have seen

  hmmm what I got underlined in the above scripture sure seems like what the WT society has done over the years, when they are walking after their own heart and spirit when there is nothing they have seen. Everytime they've "prophesied" something it has failed to come true. Do your history lesson on the Org and you can learn a lot. Such as the end of the system supposedly coming in 1914,1925,1975 and then before the turn of the century. Yes there's even more dates that they said but I just like to use the ones above because its so easy with them to show how misleading they actually were.

  Now why don't you go read those scriptures again you asked us if we had read and then come back for more discussion.

  Oh one more thing regarding the UN....the WT society was a NGO of the UN for years until it came out publicly, then they had to distance themselves. Research Watchtower NGO and you may even learn something.

  hmmmm...after thinking this over I tend to agree that I like the mission statement but can see how some may be initially turned off by the name with "anti" in it when you think of "anti-Christ" etc.

  To me a name with the same acronym but different words could draw even more to the cause.

  Such as AAWA (Association Against Watchtower Abuse).

  No one likes to hear of someone being abused in any way shape or form. Generally I've found that the word abuse grabs attention because others want to see why/how someone is experiencing abuse. Whether it be wife abuse,child abuse,drug abuse etc. it can make others take notice and want to see how another is being unfairly treated by some.

  But that being said, I have to say the video in and of itself was superbly done IMO and have already been showing it to many family members and friends as well as put a link to it on a couple websites I frequent.

  Keep up the good work and engaging in the fine fight to liberate and free the minds of many others.

  The video was impressive Cedars and very tastefully done!

  I can see this making an impact on many that are just starting to have doubts or concerns about the WT org.

  All that were involved are truly to be commended.

  Will be sharing the link to that vid on many of the forums I go to.

  Looking forward to what is in store for the future from AAWA.

  i haven't got much of a story.

  i'm in my late teens, grew up in it, and got out of the society's regime by the skin of my teeth.

  nearly go baptized because i firmly did believe it was the "truth" but because of a gut feeling that held me back, that i almost ignored, i didn't sign my blood to big brother.

  Welcome aboard!

  I'm so jealous that you got out before you were baptized.

  And to learn the truth about "the truth" at such a young age. You've got your whole life ahead of you unlike a lot of us that learned after getting baptized and spending a lot of years in it.

  Cedars,

  I went ahead and moved some stuff to scan these pages for you. I'm going to e-mail them to you but please do me a favor.

  Don't give my e-mail address to anyone or my personal name that comes through on e-mail.

  I'm still in the "witness protection program" if you get my drift and don't want to blow my cover as I try and help more to get out of the org.

  Thanks and let me know if it comes out clear for you.
