Just google search "crisis of conscience pdf" 1st link is it on scibd.
so we were talking about noah for our family worship tonight and it ended with a little debate between me and my parents about how the flood was possible.
you know, where did the water come from, how did all the animals fit, etc.
of course it led nowhere and my parents came up with some strange theories like that there was "an expanse of water in the sky" and that's where all the water came from.
No facts or evidence from the believers in this thread (and any like it), just the down votes on anything factual to mark their passing thru.
don't worry, i'm taking the piss.

i was in a relation with a jw girl for almost three years(im am not jw) and we are so inlove with each other until someone saw us from her congregation and she was disfellowed and that where the oddness happened.
her family and friends are not talking to her anymore, she wants me to stop seeing and talking to her anymore not until i became a baptized jw.
As Maya Angelou once said: "When someone shows you who they are, Believe them." The first time.

Blah blah blah, I am determined to cling to my biases, blah blah blah blah, i will not allow facts to influence me, blah blah blah blah, I will cling to my cherished beliefs, blah blah blah blah, I will not bend or alter and facts mean nothing to me.
i'm in my mid 40's and recently started bible study and going to meetings.
my family is really having a hard time with this.
my kids that are over 18 are no longer speaking to me and won't have anything to do with me.
