the bible records miracles such as resurrections, angels, prophecy and destructive acts of god to mention a few.
are these all a pack of lies?
how do you explain them?
Let me know when he has the power to resurrect the dead from the cemetery or give sight to the blind or hearing to deaf minus glasses or a hearing aid.
Yes there are many witnesses to Shirdi Sai Baba doing all of those things
But that guy is another subject.
No it's exactly the same subject.

The frequency of miracles is inversely proportionate to the spread of smart phones.
By definition a miracle is the least likely explanation for an unexplained event.
There are tens of thousands of witnesses to the miracles of Shirdi Sai Baba, I wonder whether you find their testimony to be convincing and if not why not?
the little demon went totally awol for 3 winters, 2019 - 2021, but now it's back with a vengeance: .

Masks block droplets not aerosol - covid is an aerosol virus. Coughing and sneezing is only a problem if you are very close to somebody with the virus. The problem with covid is breathing the same air indoors. Normal surgical masks do almost nothing to block covid. Cloth masks do absolutely nothing.

Masks have a trivial effect - if any at all - against an aerosol virus.
they were positioned in a walk way and i had to go right pass them.
i tried to keep walking but my legs went straight to them like they had a mind of their own.. they pointed to john 17:3 on how to get saved.
1 peter 3:18. .
I have felt tense while talking to JWs on occasions. Before they all went hiding from covid I used to talk to them frequently in Edinburgh. I find the best results come from being really relaxed and friendly on approach and introduce humour when possible.
I've had some good long conversations. At other times my sole objective has been to make them pack up and leave which is also satisfying!
back in the day when i was a young witness lad, you very much got the impression that at least the training as theocratic teachers was good.. even the bible reading back then had a short introduction and conclusion.
you had to research and prepare your own ministry school talks and then perhaps you would graduate to a half of a 55 minute public talk.
then later if you were a book study conductor, you got to decide which scriptures to read and highlight.
Great OP
I actually have memories of Thursday evenings that were quite good fun. Elders and others were appreciated when they used their initiative and invented entertaining teaching methods.
it's difficult to comprehend how arrogant the members of the governing body must be to sanction much of the content that appears in their literature.
they identify themselves as the 'faithful and discreet slave' - that alone requires an astonishing degree of pride.
but what is even more amazing - arguably to the level of insanity - is the way they then use that phrase to elevate themselves above the rest of the organisation.
I'm a slave of nobody
“supplies of offensive weapons to the kyiv regime would lead to a global catastrophe,” state duma chairman vyacheslav volodin said.
“if washington and nato supply weapons that would be used for striking peaceful cities and making attempts to seize our territory as they threaten to do, it would trigger a retaliation with more powerful weapons.”.
what is russia implying?
As far as the gypsies are concerned that you mention; No one really knows where they came from. They are all over Europe.
India
i mean, the jws have many faults, as each of us have.. do you know any other group that does?.
Thanks, Cofty. I visit your site every once in awhile- forgetting my password
Thanks but as far as I'm aware I don't have a website.

My advice would be to ignore Sea Breeze's advice.
He has made the same mistake I made when I left the Watchtower. I assumed the fundamentals of my faith must be true and spent 10 years as an Evangelical Christian.
Far better to take all the time you want to really dig deeply and learn all the things about the bible, faith and science that you have been denied previously. There are many people here who can help you with all the questions you might be wrestling with. Don't 'jump out of the frying pan into the fire'.
