  Unassailable Truth about Creation

  by Slidin Fast in

  2. bible

  it is rare to have absolute proof of the fact that the borg is categorically wrong.. the recent discovery of hominid footprints in happisburgh, norfolk, england is one such.

  these footprints are of a family of people who walked in the soft mud 800/850 thousand years ago.

  this is properly substantiated fact not open to dismissal.. further evidence in the uk shows the use of flint tools in hunting and butchering animals again accurately dated to 450,000/500,000 yearsthe bible traces adams creation to something over 6000 years ago.

  They were hominids; it was I believe too early for homo sapiens, they were either Homo heidelbergensis or homo neaderthalensis. I am not sure which. Both were predecessors to modern man and confound the Genesis account.

  The problem is that when you set yourself up as having all the answers it becomes impossible to react to developments intelligently. In Russell's day opposing evolution was a reasonable stance, simply the conservative view dismissing all these new fangled godless ideas. As the evidence piled up the WT dug in deeper and deeper and it became out of the question to make a u turn. They have to defend a more and more intractable position because of their inflexible refusal to accept the inevitable.

  There was a time when it was thought that the more rigid and unbending a structure was, the more solid it would remain. Then came the earthquakes………………..

  Hmmm Finkelstein, the mud layer was exposed after the cliffs behind it were eroded leaving the surface exposed. There is a million years of sediment in those deposits.

  Shirley, the constituent parts of the mud are stardust i suppose but that mud was layed as established.

  Desirousof Change, No, carbon dating does not come into it. It is not a technique for samples of this age.

  Just realised should have put 800/950 thousand years giving a 150,000 year margin.

  Crazyguy, that is exactly the question I asked Dr Silvia Bello PhD , one of the scientists who studied the evidence for these finds. She explained the dating process using pollen grains, the strata from which the finds came, the comparison of layers immediately above and below the sample layer and the change in magnetic field reversals that the earth has undergone.

  She explained that whilst some samples can be quite tightly dated others are assigned a wider range. In this case there is a range of 150,000 years. She explained that they never claim a more accurate age range than the evidence allows.

  Further evidence in the UK shows the use of flint tools in hunting and butchering animals again accurately dated to 450,000/500,000 yearsThe bible traces Adam’s creation to something over 6000 years ago. This is an accurate analysis of the bible’s account based on date references through til the birth of Jesus.Jesus Christ the founder of the Xtian religion believed in Adam as the first man and therefore underwrites these dates.

  The dates are accurate within the range and the conclusion inescapable. The bible is wrong in its chronology. Jesus was not all knowing and therefore not the son of an all-knowing creator.

  The WT corp. is not and never has been the mouth-piece of an all knowing creator. Whatever value the bible has is not as an infallible document from on high.

  I would submit the argument that these are facts and not open to any softer interpretation.

  Testify to ritual humiliation in the judicial process

  by rory-ks in

  2. friends

  those judicial committee videos are remarkable viewing.

  (part 1, part 2) they can leave one in no doubt about the humiliating way that jehovah's witnesses treat their men.

  i urge you to get hold of a copy.

  A lovely scathing analysis AnneB, not an original thought or creative judgement or morsel of love between them.

  Jehovah's Witnesses bought more real estate in the UK for £5 Million

  http://www.borehamwoodtimes.co.uk/news/11016729.former_home_of_cardif_pinnacle_bought_by_jehovah_s_witnesses/.

  .

  the former home of an insurance company will now be used to store bibles by a christian sect.. jehovah's witnesses have bought 1 elstree way in borehamwood, formerly known as pinnacle place, from cardif pinnacle for 4,928,000.. the building will be used by the international bible students association, a corporation of the jehovah's witnesses which distributes bibles and other religious literature.. the non-profit organisation currently operates out of properties throughout mill hill and borehamwood, with headquarters in the ridgeway in mill hill.. it employs 700 people in printing, storing and distributing religious literature throughout britain, europe and africa.. a spokesman for the jehovahs witnesses said the association had outgrown its existing premises and had bought the large building to consolidate its operations.. it will use the new acquisition to store magazines, pamphlets and bibles as well as making full use of the office space.. however it will continue to maintain its headquarters in mill hill, where the literature is printed.. the sale went through in december and the international bible students association is currently preparing the building so it can move in.. jehovahs witnesses are best known for their door-to-door evangelical work, offering bible literature and recruiting and converting people to their beliefs.. the spokesman for the movement said: we are all about bible education and we print biblical literature to distribute around the world.. the people of borehamwood will probably not notice anything different as we are making no changes to the actual building, which is why we did not need planning permission..

  My Explanation of Why They Got it Wrong About Blood Using Only the NWT

  by cofty in

  1. watchtower
  2. medical

  10 " any israelite or any alien living among them who eats any bloodi will set my face against that person who eats blood and will cut him off from his people.

  12 therefore i say to the israelites, "none of you may eat blood, nor may an alien living among you eat blood.

  15 'anyone, whether native-born or alien, who eats anything found dead or torn by wild animals must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be ceremonially unclean till evening; then he will be clean.

  Your argumentation and evidence are unassailable. I would love to hear this given as a talk in the KH by an accomplished speaker. The bible references are there, the inferences follow logically.

  Even the illustration of the man scratching his balls deciding whether to bury the dead animal or feed it to his family jumps off the page.

  I read it to my wife yesterday as an illustration of how serious, well thought out and free of rant these sites can be. She couldn’t fault the reasoning.

  Thanks Coffy

  A Tug on the Leash (The Authority Which the GB Wields Over the R&F)

  by Oubliette in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  recently, several comments have been made in various threads in reference to some of the recent changes to a few of the rules by which jehovah's witnesses must live their lives in unquestioning compliance.

  the assertion has been made that these rules are a "relaxing" of previous restrictions.

  the suggestion has been made that this somehow indicates a corresponding relaxing or loosening or lessening of the authority which the governing body (gb) holds over the rank and file (r&f) members of the religion.
