  well....tonight is when they announce my disfellowshipping for apostasy from "jehovah's organization".

  on another note.....i have officially learned that the woman i used to love and that i trusted was a genuinely good, moral person is officially evil.

  i have a friend that still goes to the sunday meeting to appease his elderly parents.

  Ah, sorry that has happened.

  It seems like your friend is going to have to lie to the elders to keep the peace with his parents.

  "yes outsmartthesystem is a friend, no of course I wont continue association if he is disfellowshipped, no we never discussed doctrinal issues, yes of course I believe this is Gogs organisation, thankyou so much for your concern brothers I will put it in prayer to consider how I can improve my meeting attendance"

  If he can stomach it of course.

  Your wife is putting family first, its her security as your marriage is breaking up. If she's in any way smart she wont let her dad get his paws on her money, if not, she's not got a brilliant financial future...

  did anyone see this on bbc 2 last night?

  very interesting, especially the information on us sharing up to 4% of dna with neanderthals.

  it seems there is some debate on if this is from a shared ancestor or interbreeding.

  Irregular in that statement is code to all Jehovah's Witnesses watching this case that "he wasnt really one of us".

  But as noted, he got married in a Kingdom Hall so would have to have been baptised and in good standing at that point.

  was just going through a few topics and this caught my attention, and since that thread looks pretty much dead i thought i would create a new one to add my thoughts .. so i would start by replying to as much criticisms as i can okay.

  @jam: .

  the purpose of the flood, because man grieved him to.

  The tectonic plates could not have moved that quickly.

  But god magic could.

  The ark couldn't logistically support the humans and that amount of animals and their food and drink needs.

  But god magic could.

  Saltwater fish would have been killed by that volume of fresh water running into the oceans.

  God magic could protect them.

  Chinese people were drinking beer and making paper 1000 years before Adam was supposed to have lived.

  That evidence is bad devil magic.

  Oops, Adam and Eve are now joined in gehenna by Cain. No ressurection for those 3, according to the Abel article.

  It's nice that the society can decide who won't get a second chance, isn't it.

  i really didn't realise that words like "row" and "frock" are not common in the us.. glad to see "autumn", "queue", "numpty", "muppet" making a splash over there.. even "chav" and "innit" are being used apparently.. hey all you irish/scottish/welsh/english posters, what other words should our friends over the water be using?.

  wassock, fathead, plonker are three off the top of my head..

  Pls to use the word 'fag' for a cigarette and not a perjorative term for a gay man.

  I love language exchange, lots of Americanisms are being adopted by us too, I've even heard people refer to a fullstop as a 'period'.

  THE GOOD NEWS WILL BE POSTED LATER TODAY!!!!!

  by EndofMysteries in

  2. beliefs

  a video will be posted later today where all the mysteries of god, the disgusting thing causing desolation, all the contradictions in the bible, why god in the old testament seemed so cruel, why was satan created if god is good, how is god love?

  all of the prophecies jesus had foretold which were hidden and lost yet being fullfilled the entire time.

  this is the good news that will then spread worldwide, and then the end will come.
