A famous Historian, Flavius Josephus, had written about the existence of Jesus, Jesus stated that man and women were created. That's good enough for me to still believe in Creation

What is the official stance on shunning family that "faded"?

by Wild_Thing in

friends

does anybody have any quotes from watchtower literature or video that shows what their stance is on associating with family who have left the witnesses?

or even what the unofficial stance is?.

not disfellowshipped or officially disassociated, just "inactive" for say 15-20 years, but also openly living a "worldly" life birthdays, holidays, including attending another church?

I agree WT. I wish that they would finally come clear as to what "Family Business", is and quit elaborating what it is not.

in response to the 37 threads in my evolution is a fact series - see bottom of op for links - perry posted a link to an article "44 reasons why evolution isn't true".. i offered him a challenge on the thread and by pm.

predictably he is totally ignoring it, so i am offering the challenge to any evolution-denier who thinks they have evidence to support their position.. please present one specific piece of evidence for creationism.. my task will be to refute it with evidence within 24 hours.. then i will present one piece of evidence for evolution and your challenge will be the same.. all posts must be as succinct as reasonably possible.

entirely in your own words, without copy-paste, videos or links.. please post your interest to take part and we will set it up before the first actual post in the exchange.

So this is a challenge to Creationists, eh?

Great. I just got my Hot Tub Time Machine working. Le'st go for a trip through..... What's this? You are not a Time Machine Believer?

Then how can we have a fair challenge if we can't go back through time?

What were Satan and his demons "doing" up in heaven, before being "cast down" in 1914?

by Dunedain in

i was just thinking about how the wts has been spouting off for years that satan and his demons were cast down to the vicinity of the earth in 1914, but really, when you think about it, what was the difference before 1914 or after 1914?.

its not like satan and his demons did not have access to the earth.

satan and his demons always were messing with earth.

The Bible doesn't give us specific details as to what goes on in heaven. Revelation gives us parables and illustrations and it is just a good guessing game, but nobody can ever get it 100 percent accurate. Here is my guess.

The Bldg up in heaven was being sold to make way for the Warwick project. Satan, and his Demons got their Lay-off notices. They were sent to work out in the Field (on Earth). Pissed off, they fought, but the Great Trump was effective in deporting them down to the earth. He also built a wall so that they couldn't come back. He deducted money from their accounts for that too.

While they were in heaven, they had illegal jobs. sold drugs, took jobs away from the good angels, they also had no control over their sex drive.

I hope this clears things up.

Man, why do I feel that I'm in so much trouble for writing about this?

I guess it really wasn't my business, dubstepped. I showed too much initiative, I guess. Poked my nose where it doesn't belong.

I figured out that her unbelieving husband had used the tablet. He owned it before giving it to her.

Her face was really red when I discovered that.
