  I got up yesterday morning (Saturday) and enjoyed the watchtower work

  reaching the fire watchtower on top of wayah bald overlooking the smokey mountains can be a difficult hike from nantahala lake up the bartram and appalachian trails where they straddle each other passing through this area.

  the most enjoyable watchtower work i've ever participated in.. the views from the tower are spectacular.. .

  looking across nantahala forest to the smoky mountains, described poetically as the most elevated peak; from whence i beheld with rapture and astonishment, a sublimely awful scene of power and magnificence, a world of mountains piled upon mountains.

  The entire Appalachian Trail is on the books for the wife and I one of these days. So far we have only done small pieces of it.

  Absolutely beautiful view you had there and I have noted this area. Thank you!

  The Old Age

  so now that most of us have come to a semi truthful understanding that the witnesses are wrong about evolutionist, there is a certain question that i have always had.

  now if you were to ask any jw, they'd recite a complete fallacy from scientist regarding this.

  but what is you guys input of this.

  Wow another brick pretending to have valid arguments.

  When scientists make mistakes or deliberately feed misinformation, it never stays that way. Science is not about people or their prejudices. Science does not doggedly stick to a theory after it has been disproved - theories are disproved by others in search of the same or similar answers, those mistakes are proven by other scientists. The fact that mistakes were made does not magically become evident to us.

  Science consists of a diverse field of experts all bouncing hypothesis, theory and fact off each other in order to further their understanding - period. Proving hundreds of scientists made scientific errors does not disqualify science as a ligitimate means of solving problems, finding answers or establishing fact. Science has nothing to do with trying prove itself for its unanimous acceptance by people. Either you accept the knowledge it provides or you do not. Either you trust science as a FIELD dedicated to the pursuit of knowledge and understanding or you do not - simple as that.

  If a seat belt malfuntioned for several people despite them being globally accepted as life savers, would you refuse to wear sealt belts even after those malfunctions were corrected?

  Witnesses - Ever Wondered Why You're So Tired After Assemblies/Meetings?

  by The Searcher in

  recently shared this with me.. they compared the tiredness they felt after attending an assembly and meetings, and noted how much worse it was than actually working and studying hard for hours for their secular employment!

  why were they so exhausted after an assembly/meeting?

  no, it wasn't satan.

  Funny. After all this time I was under the impression my exhaustion was due to listening to hours of boring bullshit.

  the number of pyramids in the world just keep going up and up.

  an egyptoligist thinks using satellite scanning technology he has found the remnants of another 17 pyramids in the egypt.

  in central and south american they keep finding more pyramids and in java a couple of years ago they surmised that the riuns their was actually a step pyramid possible the oldest in the world.

  OTWO:

  Sorry I meant to upvote you. I haven't read much about pyramids but I thought your explanation was completely logical.

  I need to keep my misbehaving sausages fingers away from the "like" button 😡

  Islam is the Epitome of Misogyny

  in this video the popular saudi cleric sheik yahya al-jana discusses the joys of paradise, saying that men will have the strength of a hundred men in paradise and will be busy tearing hymens, while the virgins of paradise, whose breasts are like pomegranates, become virgins every time again.. the cleric also explains it is mostly men who enter paradise noting that women in general are bad because they refuse to wear the veil, they wear tight clothes in shopping malls, put on perfume and jewelry, and use filthy social media platforms.

  source.... this is what young men from conservative muslim families are raised on.

  is it any wonder islamic countries treat women appallingly?.

  Hello Sankara and welcome!

  I was born and raised in South Africa but have been in the USA since 1997. I was assigned to a Job in Lagos for Mohammed Indimi in 1999. I must say, I Really enjoyed the music and food there. The people in Lagos were having a bit of a rough time when I was there. How is Lagos nowadays?

  Stock Up! The End Is Near!

  by LevelThePlayingField in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  about four paragraphs down in the article... source: http://www.westernjournalism.com/stock-up-the-end-is-near-or-so-say-mormons/.

  cults quite commonly use made-up prophecy to bolster their membership.

  for example, beginning around 1918, the watchtower bible and tract society today commonly known as jehovahs witnesses began teaching that the old testament saintsabraham, isaac, jacob and king david, etc.would all be returning from the dead in 1925!

  hi... i am new and after nearly 20 years after being disassociated at 15 i would like to make contact with others who have similar difficulties.

  my mother was disfellowshipped shortly after my rebellion and had all ties with both her mother and brother cut and that remains the case.. just really hacked off with not being able to put things in the proper place in my life after all these years.

  for the record i don't know if i believe in god but am searching for some peace as i seem to self destruct on a regular basis.. any ideas anyone?.

  i have been given a piece of birthday cake as it was his birthday yesterday!

  will i be a human hot dog now?.....

  this just got me thinking of all the stupidities of the watchtower teachings, someone very kindly offers you something as innocent as a slice of chocolate cake but we were supposed to turn it down because that peace of chocolate cake now had horns poking out the top of the chocolate frosting.

  That's the beauty of superstition and the superstitious. No need to rationalize in order to get people to obey you, simply stick a demonic label on it and like magic they listen and obey!

  knock knock

  by Sabin in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  if jw`s come knocking at your door, do you open it & engage in conversation, tell them to sod off, or just not answer the door?.

  my husband`s has asked me not to answer the door to them if he isn't here?

  he hate`s the fact that they make a point of calling when they know he will be at work.

  The last time they came around (over a year ago) I had a little time off and invited them inside, offered them coffee and made them comfortable. Once they were all settled in I sprung my trap, confronting them mostly about the 1914 generation. It was fun watching go from relaxed to squirming in their chairs. That was the last time any of them ever came to my door.
