Did I imagine a brief thaw in the Watchtower injunction against going to university?
by slimboyfat inokay i was talking to an elder and he said me going to university was a bad idea and i should have listened to the society and not gone.
but i said that when i went to university the watchtower was saying it might not be a bad idea to go to, as long as you do it for the "right reasons", don't associate with worldly people, and keep clear of "damaging ideas".
but basically they said it was okay, in this "changing world" and job market to go to university.

I was sponsored by my company to go day release and block release. I experienced no criticism from the brothers as I was still at home and attending the meetings and therefore, I was not being unduly influenced by the worldly university spirit. I spent nearly a decade first first of all studying chemistry and then my MBA. It was hard work, but I was earning a salary and didn't have to pay for anything other than text books and travel. -

Newly released 911 photos
by purplesofa in(cnn) -- newly released photographs show what a damaged world trade center tower and its collapse looked like from a new york police department helicopter as it flew nearby on september 11, 2001, in new york.. the aerial photos were obtained by abc news after it filed a freedom of information act request last year with the national institute of standards and technology, which had collected the images for its investigation into the towers' collapse.. a couple of the images show one of the twin towers burning after a hijacked airplane had flown into it.
others show it collapsing, and the rest show the clouds of debris and dust spreading below after the towers crumbled.. each of the 12 images offers a rare look at what the devastation looked like from above.. .

Why Rational People Buy Into Conspiracy Theories?
by adjusted knowledge inmy wife is taking a literature course at a local college.
this was her final topic of the semester: why rational people buy into conspiracy theories?i automatically thought of this site and of jws.
the jws i knew, were the kind of people that would believe in conspiracy theories, and i noticed a small following on this site.. the article that was referenced for this course was: http://www.nytimes.com/2013/05/26/magazine/why-rational-people-buy-into-conspiracy-theories.html?_r=0.

As with everything don't believe what you read at face value. Challenge everything, fact check everything, examine both sides and apply Occum's razor.
By doing this most CT's are found to be total BS, some are as barmy as they are unprovable.....but occasionally there is more than a grain of truth........

JW message becoming more and more relevant
by lsw1961 inmans requirements are limited which can be satisfied with a little and tension-free endeavor..
however man attempts not only to collect but also to grab and amass everything to the excess.
somehow he feels that he can be happy only when he has in abundance whereas others have nothingwhich seems to be the thread that runs throughout the history.

ISW - there are no proofs against evolution. Get yourself an education before you spout your ignorance. -

If Evolution Theory were true, humans would have only adapted to their environment.
At least learn what evolution is before making such stupid statements,

I'm a cynical, sarcastic and curmudgeonly old bastard most of the time.
by nicolaou inbut as i move into my early 50's i find i'm more and more comfortable in my thick, leathery hide.. please get it into your thick skull's that i don't insult or make snarky comments with the intent of hurting anyone's feelings.
that being said, if your precious feelings are hurt it's probably your fault for being a prissy, over sensitive drama queen who can't defend his argument.. i do actually love you all, it's just that most of the time you spineless pussies really get on my nerves!.
good god i feel better for that!
