Bribie, the Uk is still a great place to visit. The largest cities are probably unrecognisable from the 70s when you were last here though. There are many beautiful regions with great scenery and amazing history. The Northumberland coast is worth considering as part of an itinerary, it's not too busy. We have had some great holidays in the Lake District, Peak district, Lincolnshire and Devon. Scotland is fantastic if you get good weather. You will still find plenty nice villages and pubs and cricket if you need a good sleep in the afternoon :)

All A are B
All C are B
Therefore all C are A
Therefore Jesus!
Fundy xtians are living proof that even the most simple logic is not a human universal.

You are not an elder anymore where mental midgets quake in fear at the sound of your voice.
Fuck you

What's the point of being on a discussion forum where theists just ignore everything that doesn't confirm their biases?

There are some big questions that are really puzzling.
Why is there something rather than nothing?
Why do some physical factors appear to be 'fine-tuned' for life?
The relative size and distance of the moon is definitely not among the interesting puzzles!
However resorting to 'god' - whatever you mean by that - is NOT any kind of answer. It's a place-holder at best and a conversation stopper at worst.
The god of christian theism is impossible. Not only is there no evidence for Yahweh, there is a mountain of evidence against the proposition. So climb down off your high-horse and join the rest of us in humbly admitting we don't know everything.

Was it Designed?
by Jeffro inthe jw website is currently featuring a piece: the shell of the diabolical ironclad beetle—was it designed?
it is part of their regular tedious 'was it designed?
' series that purports that very very specific animal species must have been specifically designed because of some seemingly amazing feature.. but they seem completely unaware that this directly contradicts their notion that only very broad 'kinds' were required on the mythical 'ark'.

All living things are wonderfully designed to kill or escape predation.
By 'design' I mean of course the correlation of form and function. Natural selection is a brilliant designer which is why it has been employed by human designers to solve difficult design challenges.
Christians who accept the fact of biological evolution still have all their work ahead of them. Why did god employ a process that maximised the suffering of conscious creatures?
(Christians who deny biological evolution need to read a book not written by Iron Age goat herders)

Prediction: I think the Blood Policy is about to change.
by underground ini’d like to start out by saying this is my opinion.. i believe that the organisation is about to make blood transfusions in any form a conscience matter.. they will still ban the eating of blood.. they will gaslight everyone by talking about how it is so much safer now.
and will say something along the lines of how our stance protected us from the aids crisis etc.. and i believe this change is going to happen before the annual meeting 2024.. i think the annual meeting will announce they are scrapping the midweek meeting and instead we get to watch a streamed talk at home through a revamped website similar to the way netflix works.. obviously take my opinion with a hefty pinch of salt..

They have always stated that the blood ban was a matter of principle based on the symbolic value of blood and nothing to do with medical safety. Of course if you quiz a JW about blood they will be unable to explain the principle and witter on about how dangerous blood is.
