Why are there earthquakes? Because of constantly shifting tectonic plates! DUH!

they cant be an accident, because everything god does is intended.. so, if god created everything perfect, there shouldn't be any disasters: earthquakes, tsunamis etc.
so either he didn't create them perfectly, because he couldnt therefore, he lacks some qualities: all-powerful, all-wise or because he didnt want to, therefore being malevolent (he knew that there will be life on earth, and those disasters could harm this life).
either way it doesnt look good for him.

a nuclear reactor is built in such a way, that when operating normally, you take out all the moderator rods.
so if these radioactive materials are released into the environment, yes, radioactivity was released, but no, it is not dangerous, at all.
when the uranium splits, it generates a neutron (see above).
and now for something completely nerdy,.... http://www.piday.org/.
lmao.

either from the bible, nostradamas or by some other seer?.
I personally believe that prophecies are merely warnings of what could happen if a negative course of action isn't reversed. Just because something was predicted doesn't mean that it MUST happen. The future is NOT carved in stone. There is no "fate" per-se. God is not micro-managing the universe...

so, i'm sitting at my desk one morning, about a week ago.
the desk is right beside my sliding glass door in my new ground floor suite.
the drapes are wide open and i'm sitting in full view of anyone coming up the driveway.
Gee, Cog... I suppose that this thread is just some kind of joke or mockery, right? (Somehow the humour is lost on me...)
So, why does it appear to be that JWs are "slacking"? The question that really would have to be asked is: does your garden variety JW go out in Field Service because they WANT TO or because they HAVE TO? I'm pretty sure that the majority simply DO NOT enjoy it at all. Really, who would enjoy doing something that would have them facing apathy or hostility 99 times out of 100? Lets face it: it's a miserable experience. Because they are only human, they are more interested saving their own skins than they are in trying to save the souls of hostile, apathetic strangers, despite the pep talks from the leadership. The words of the Apostle Paul be damned; a sense of obligation or duty just doesn't cover it either! Also, the leadership isn't nearly as interested in results as they say they are; the FS is merely a means to keep the "sheep" busy and distracted.
I repeat: JWs are only human. They should be much more pitied than criticized or mocked.
I myself hardly ever have anything to do with them anymore. I'm all too happy that I rarely hear from them (per my wishes). I'm not the least bit pleased when on rare occasions they still do knock on my door every now and then. It's especially irritating when I'm at home waiting for a delivery or a maintenance person and when I answer the door, it's THEM instead. I'd be positively thrilled if they NEVER would show up at MY door again.
So, what is it, Cog? Are you secretly longing to have contact with JWs again? Isn't a lifetime of their BS enough? How about not bothering yourself with what JWs do and how they do it and keep on with living your own life? How about the rest of you here? Wouldn't it be better for all of us if we never had to be bothered with them are their kind ever again?
Cya around, sweetie...

peaceful bonobos may have something to teach humans.
march 8, 2011 by miles o' brien and ann kellan.
brian hare, assistant professor of evolutionary anthropology at duke university, spends several months of the year in the democratic republic of congo, where he studies bonobos.
Your comment about those "scientific" predictions was brilliant, Mad Sweeny. Just brilliant! LOL!
I suppose that if we mentioned such things as possibly creating wormholes at will, folding or warping of space or jumping in and out of some type of hyper-dimensional space, it would likely leave the old man positively apoplectic...
