If you're in a plane when you're raptured, then I guess you have big headstart on others getting to heaven. First to the heaven buffet.

Are you flying tomorrow? Then make sure the pilots are athiests!
by moshe inno kidding, i just got an email from a friend who works at a large corporation and one of his work associates was saying he hopes at least the pilot or copilot are athiests- he knows he isn't going to be on the rapture and he wants to make sure his plane doesn't crash and kill him early.. can you believe how much religious pr that harold camping has stirred up?
jws never got that kind of coverage- they can print a billion more magazines and they will still be a fringe religion that few people know anything about..

He is popular mainly because he is likeable and tries to bring really hard things to the non-scientific community.
Agreed bohm. What makes Hawking so likeable is that his fight with Lou Gehrig's disease is a triumph of human spirit. Not only extremely brilliant but he's clearly a fighter….having outlived his prognosis by 44 years.
Amazing what he has accomplished when he only has control of one muscle, and its in his cheek.

Wifes leaving their husbands
by Lazarus inthis year alone, three wifes in my congo left their husband and da with jws (all of them have kids).
similar cases are seen in nearby congos.
its striking that far more women leave their man and the jws then man do.. i would like to know, whether this observation can be made in your area too.

Welcome to the forum, Lazarus. Interesting observation...I haven't been to a kingdom hall for many years so can't add any local experience.
That said, perhaps more JW wives leave is due to the submissive role they told to take. Many women are abused and the elders often do very little besides telling them to be more submissive.

Heard hockey analyst and former player Matthew Barnaby got arrested
Read something on that the other day Jimmy. Sounds like he went all Mel Gibson on his ex. Well...not sure about the death threats part.
Has any city had more success in pro sports over a 10 to 12 year period than Boston at this point?
jair_irwin....good point. When you put together their winnings over that span, Boston has been on quite a run.
Speaking of Boston...charlie those Bruins of yours are rolling eh? Good to see Patrice Bergeron back....hate those concussions. If the Canucks keep rolling too, my Stanley Finals prediction is looking good.

TD: Hawking's "free pass" is not because he's disabled. It's because a mind like his only comes along every generation or so.
Exactly...well put TD. Cameron shows his true colors by going after Hawking's unfortunate condition. Pathetic really. Throwing in Lennon was just icing on the Cameron idiocy cake.
Sweeney: <rant>People are entitled to believe idiotic and wrong things. The ones who understand just how idiotic and wrong those people are ARE ALSO ENTITLED to critique, criticize, and correct them. WHAT'S MORE, there is a moral obligation to point out when others are idiotic and wrong in order to prevent idiocy and wrongheaded ideas from spreading even further than they already have. </rant>
Bravo, Sweeney, bravo.

Staggering absurdity isn't it, Band? With stuff like he'd fit right in with the WT writing dept.
Think the only acting he's done in recent years are a series of movies called Left Behind. Think they're based on stories of the rapture. Which, considering, maybe is why he feels confident smearing Hawking and Lennon.....come Saturday the world ends and he goes "home". -

Yeah cofty, they're pretty much interchangeable. The banana man is Kirk's sidekick, Ray Comfort. Another genius from which the likes of Hawking and Dawkins run. Well....Hawking motors I guess.

All hail the genius of Kirk Cameron...he hath spoken. If you missed it, Stephen Hawking did an interview with The Guardian the other day in which he said the following:
"I regard the brain as a computer which will stop working when its components fail. There is no heaven or afterlife for broken down computers; that is a fairy story for people afraid of the dark"
Well, it didn't take long for world-renowned physicist Kirk Cameron to destroy Hawking with a scathing scientific rebuttal on his Facebook page. (check out some of the comments from his "followers") Kirk also managed to slip in a shot at John Lennon, who really had it coming with his darn songs of peace.
Prepare to have your mind blown...
"To say anything negative about Stephen Hawking is like bullying a blind man. He has an unfair disadvantage, and that gives him a free pass on some of his absurd ideas. Professor Hawking is heralded as "the genius of Britain," yet he believes in the scientific impossibility that nothing created everything (Sir Isaac Newton called atheism "senseless and odious") and that life sprang from non-life. To speak on issues of science and violate it's essential laws is like playing checkers with a someone who changes the rules when he's losing. Why should anyone believe Mr. Hawking's writings if he cannot provide evidence for his unscientific belief that out of nothing, everything came? He says he knows there is no Heaven. John Lennon wasn't sure. He said to pretend there's no Heaven. That's easy if you try. Then he said he hoped that someday we would join him. Such wishful thinking reveals John and Stephen's religious beliefs, not good science. They may imagine all they want, but I lost my faith in atheism long ago and prefer to stay within the realm of reality."

by Mr. Falcon inlet's visit the falcon residence for a dinner-time discussion, shall we?.
mf: mom, why is there such a large variety of animals?.
mom: because jehovah wanted us to enjoy all the different species.. mf: but why was there such a vast and diverse variety of dinosaurs if they were never meant to co-exist with humans?.

so, um, what exactly stood in for the T-Rex?
Easy answer undercover. Noah didn't bring full-grown T.Rex's on the ark. They brought young ones not yet full-grown! Jeez...
This is from a JW site...www.jw-archive.org...and they posted this article " T.Rex Toddler Answers Noah's Ark Questions "
In 2006, the fossil of a juvenile Tyrannosaurus-like dinosaur named Tarbosaurus was collected from the Gobi Desert. Investigators examined the fossil in detail this year and estimated that the creature died at two to three years of age. This young specimen not only offers insights into the growth and development of these dinosaurs, it also sheds light on certain misconceptions connected to the biblical account of Noah's Ark.
The first objection assumes that Noah and his family had to have taken full-grown dinosaurs on board the Ark, which is typically presumed to have been smaller than its actual biblical dimensions. The Ark was at least 45 feet high, minus the required dimensions for hull structure. 3 If the three decks that the Lord specified for its construction were evenly spaced from bottom to top, they would have offered about 15 feet of clearance. Tyrannosaurs could reach 40 feet in length, and the adults would therefore not have fit well on such a deck.
But why would Noah have taken older dinosaurs on board, when younger ones would have fit just fine? The juvenile Tarbosaurus under investigation would have stood waist-high next to most men, and therefore it would have been easily accommodated on the Ark.
