  Is there Such a Thing as TIme

  by givemejustalittlemoretime in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the present moment is real.

  however much you may remember the past or anticipate the future, you live in the present.

  the next second of your life is the future.

  I think time travel is impossible.

  BUT....

  In quantum realm we can entangle particles from present to any particle in past and future.

  So if we could manipulate this physical property we could scan any event in past with a molecular resolution and we could be able to rebuild that configuration in our present moment (in a fantastic simulation).

  So it's possible to build the past in present in an atomic resolution. You would not tell the difference. In any way, it's a true time travel. But instead os you travelling it's the place that actually travels. It's just like bringing on the Eiffel Tower to your backyard.

  BUT...

  This far we still haven't found how to extract information from quantum particles. That's the challenge of quantum computing, and some progress are being made with the elusive Qubits.

  From this moment the quantum particles are very experienced travellers but they are mute and do not share any vacation pics with us. LOL

  Time is not an illusion and its equal to space. Time=space.

  But time exists in a relative way (physically and psychologically). It depends on space and exists only in macrouniverse. There's no time and space to quantum particles, they can go from one corner of the universe to other at same instant (if there's no time, there's no space too), they can go to both past and future too, and be at several places (no matter how far) at the same time.

  In quantum realm there's no time (and space).

  Matter is much more interesting than any concept of spirit or soul. And we are made from this fantastic stuff.

  BOE 2014-07-11 Use of ministerial servants where the number of elders is limited

  by WatchTower87 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  to all bodies of elders.

  the congregation secretary should arrange for this letter to be retained in the congregation permanent file of policy letters.

  he may also wish to update the congregation copy of the index to lettersfor bodies of elders (s-22) at this time as well.

  Heaven is For real - Akiane Kramarik / Col,Todd- Visions of Heaven , real or imaginned

  by smiddy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  today, i watched a movie called" heaven is for real", before we go any further i want to say i have become an atheist having been exposed to christianity from an early age with different denominations up into my teens , and then being converted to a jehovahs witness for 33 years , and then disaccociating myself from that religion some years ago.. however i am intrigued with what i have witnessed today , not only the movie , but where it has led me.

  fair enough , movies take liberties in what they present even with so called true stories , i can live with that.. i think their has been a lot said about col and his pastor father being an influence on his sons visions.i can live with that too.. in the movie col todd related to the painting akiane kramarik made about jesus ?

  they never knew anything about one another.

  (....the phenonema surrounding this subject.)

  It's just the I-WANT-TO-BELIEVE factor. There's no spooky phenomena about this.

  There's no objective evidence at all.

  Just people telling what they want.

  All we KNOW this far is we and EVERYTHING around us are probabilistic particles interacting through space and time.

  Luckly these particles can form a lot of things but they have limitations too. Zeus and Jehovah, spirits and unicorns are very unlikely to exist outside our imagination.

  Bro Lett at Int. Conv in Israel last year.......

  by WingCommander in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  having been recently introduced to governing body member lett's "unique" speaking style, i found another video on youtube (and also on jw.org) of bro lett visiting the international convention in israel.

  apparently his buffonery is not only reserved for video intro's to dramas, but also in real life as well.. i used to think those ol' time pentacostal and baptist ministers in tents would overdue it......i was wrong.

  this guy has them all beat.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltvx_e4xe4e.

  Is the Bible just as fake as the JW's

  by BackSlider in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it seems that the more i research, the more i find that it's all just a big scam.

  is there any evidence that even the bible isn't just another big religion/government scam?

  would we listen to putin or obama if they told us they have verified new holy writings?

  I think bible is worser than WT.

  WT was originate through crazy interpretations from the bible. The bible is a source of suffering to mankind.

  If the organization is all about money.....

  by Pete Zahut in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  then why would they be so insistent about dfing people ?

  if it's money the watchtower org is after, it seems like they'd want to hold on to all the members they can.. how would you answer this logic?.

  Are U trying to argue with a JW using logic? Good luck for you.

  Their only "logic" is "we are right and you are doomed".

  (He says it is an unfortunate necessity that is carried out in order to accomplish their assignment from God to spread the word and live in accordance to his commandments.)

  Using Ray Franz example, how a meal with your boss can be a source of problem in spreading the "word of God"?

  It's not about word of god or world of dog, it's all about control. We control you, so if you does not listen and obey you will not be blessed.

  It's a control freak cult. They want (and they do) control the very thought of the JW's.

  Control first, and money is a natural result from it...

  Jehovah to me was always about fear.
