Even the Australian Aborigines have a flood story so to me it just proves a good tale travels well.

There is nothing about blood fractions in the Bible but it didn't stop them making up stuff about that either

Urgent: Pope Benedictus resigns: a good example for GB
by Gorbatchov injust in the news: pope benedictus is resigning.
this should be a good example for the gb of our church organization.
there are reasons enough: child abuse (conti case etc), failed prophecies (slave classe, un/osce), killing doctrines (blood doctrine etc, shunning / suicide) and fraude (investment corporation instead of church).. so it would be nice to read on bbc news: governing body of jehovah's witnesses resigns and make way for a new generation that embraces christian freedom.. gorby.

New Pope will be named Peter
by Monsieur ini remember reading somewhere in regards to a a 'prophet' of sorts who had predicted all the popes that have been chosen.. his 'prophecy' stated that the next pope (since benedict has resigned) would be the last before the 'end' would come.
his name would be pope peter.. let's see what happens.
we are suppose to know who the next pope will be before easter..

Unless it is a young Peter it could all go horribly wrong very quickly

Check out this arriving in April:
What Bible principles apply to the use of cell phones while attending Christian meetings and sharing in the ministry?
“ For Everything There Is an Appointed Time.” (Eccl. 3:1)
Cell phones give people the ability to text or speak with one another at virtually any time. However, there are occasions when Christians do not want to be distracted by their phone. For instance, our meetings are a time to worship Jehovah, receive spiritual instruction, and enjoy
an interchange of encour agement. (Deut. 31:12; Ps. 22:22; Rom. 1: 11, 12) Could we turn o? our phone when we arrive and retrieve our
messages after leaving the meeting? If the possibility of an emergency requires that we leave our phone on, we should put it on a setting that will not disturb others.“ Do All Things for the Sake of the Good News.” (1 Cor. 9:23)
At times, there are valid uses of a cell phone in the ministry. For example, a brother taking the lead might use it to check on those preaching
in others parts of the territory. Publishers sometimes use their cell phone to call an interested person or Bible student before making a visit,
especially if the person lives some distance away. If we have a phone with us, we should take precautions to prevent it from interrupting us
while we are speaking with a householder. (2 Cor. 6:3) While waiting on other publishers, rather than phoning or texting a friend, would it
not be better to keep our attention focused on the ministry and those with whom we are working?Be Considerate of Others. (1 Cor. 10: 24; Phil. 2: 4)
Never would we want to be lax about being on time for the meetings for ?eld service with the idea that we can always phone or text someone to
?nd out where the group is witnessing. When we arrive late, the group must often be reorganized. Of course, circumstances be yond our control may
occasionally cause us to be late. However, when we make it a habit to arrive on time, we show consideration for Jehovah’s arrangement, the brother
taking the lead, and our fellow publishers.Next time in the KM Question Box: What Bible principles apply to the use of toilet paper when making use of the restroom ?

Are atheists afraid of archaeology?
by Xanthippe inlarsinger thinks we are.
i have to answer this because it makes my blood boil.
this is one of the key things that trapped me in a religion for the first 30 years of my life.. we were told the archaeologists have found ur of the chaldeans, babylon, nineveh and evidence for the existence of the hittites.therefore the other things in the bible must be true.. archaeologsts have also found troy in modern day turkey.

"The truth shall set you free" is one of the few sentiments in the Bble that are actually true but not in the way they intended.
