All the elders in my circuit are driving across the state for a big elders meeting. And the Ministerial servants have to do it on Sunday. Evidentally they were all told to study certain parts of their new book before going.
Well it's supposed to be top secret and they aren't allowed to record it and they have to bring a badge or they can't get in.
Basically I wanted to know what they're talking about cause I'm curious like that and I like to know the secret things. Anyone have a recording or some notes?

What is wrong with letting this man speak about how he feels? Should we censor him and not allow him to have feelings?
Heck no!
It's more fun to openly mock his mental condition!
Seriouly though choosing not to report on it does not equal censorship.
It would not be censorship if fox news realized they had nothing worthwhile here and played a video of a cute kitten instead. That would be ideal.
It WOULD be censorship if fox news tried to report on it and the government told them they weren't allowed. Which I don't believe anyone is advocating.
Can't people believe what they want?
Yup, they're free to believe whatever they want. Just like I'm free to point and lawl.

Loftus: How Science Leads to Naturalism
by leavingwt inhow science leads to naturalism (at least for me) .
we should be skeptics of extraordinary claims of miracles in the ancient past.
there are too many of them in every culture, too many mythical stories.. .

Has anyone ever had a 'Near Death Experience' ?
by 3Mozzies ini'm wondering if anyone here has had a "near death experience" or know of someone that has.
as an example: such as floating above your body during your operation when the doctors 'lose' you and you make a decision to return back to your body even though the bright light and some voice tell you otherwise... .
did it change you/them in anyway?.

Interestingly, when Christians have near death experiences, they usually see Jesus or Mary.
When Muslims have near death experiences they tend to see Allah, or important spirits from the quaran.
When Hindus have near death experiences they tend to see Krishna or symbolic images from their religion.
If everyone all had the same near death experience regardless of their beliefs or religion beforehand, I might be slightly inclined to take the drug blurred ramblings of a dying brain a tiny bit more seriously.
But I wouldn't believe what they saw was real if they were totally awake and healthy at the time, let alone when their mind is at its weakest.
And to answer the question: No I've never had a near death experience. But I did fall out of a tall tree and almost die. And I once dreamt about being in the new system which felt real while I was asleep. . . I just didn't do them both at the same time.

by CyrusThePersian inhere we are at the close of 2010. since i have many family members who are still jehovah's witnesses, and who still believe that the end of the world is coming any minute now, i thought i would post a little list of events, a timetable if you will, of some end-time prophesies and how long ago they were.. .
around 1,980 years ago jesus promised,"...this generation will by no means pass away until all these things occur.
also around the same time jesus said," truly i say to you that there are some of those standing here that will not taste death at all until first they see the son of man coming in his kingdom.

Elders manual-WTF?
by lostsheep82 inkay, being a 'sister' obviously an elders manual was out of our reach and still is to all the sisters and non-elders.

I believe fokyc is reffering to the typo: "qualiftcations" is spelled "qualifications"
This mistake is actually likely to be a result of the image to text conversion done in the PDF mistaking an i for a t.
Not sure what bearing that has on the meaning but apparently it nullifies everything you said.
You know, just like a single scribal error in the bible would nullify the whole book.

On the day you eat...
by PSacramento insince it has been brought up a few time, i though it cool to post this interpretation of this part of genesis 2:.
http://biologos.org/blog/genesis-creation-and-ancient-interpreters-on-the-day-you-eat-of-it/.
one issue that occupied the attention of many early interpreters is found in genesis 2:16-17, where god warns not to eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for on the day you eat of it you shall die.. the problem is well known: adam (and eve) did eat of the fruit, but they did not die on that day.

So did Yahweh TELL Adam that when he says: "Day" He could mean any random number incuding: 24 hours, a week, a year, 1000 year, a 'period of time' possibly billions of years.
If he told Adam that, then how come he didn't just say: "For in the Millenium that you eat from it" Or: "If you eat it, you'll eventually die." ?
Maybe if the 1000 years = 1 day rule had been mentioned in the Genesis story it wouldn't seem like such a pathetic excuse.
But whether it's Paul changing definitions 4000 years later, or you personally doing it 6000 years later. It's still just some random guy trying to make excuses for the obvious problems in the bible.
Am I allowed to retroactively redefine words to make myself truthful?
Me: "I'll give you 100 dollars in under 20 minutes."
34 years later
Me: "Well when I said '20 minutes' I actually meant '20 years'. And when I said 'dollars' I actually meant 'germs'. And when I said '100' I actually meant 'influenza'.
Remember 14 years ago when I gave you the flu? Yeah that was me fulfilling my promise!"And yet, somehow you find that to be an acceptible way to 'resolve' the problem when god does it. . .
