  JWs have more good points than bad

  by lsw1961 in

  2. beliefs

  1) many who were on the destructive path have been transformed by their teachings (this includes me who was once vicious, and presumptuous and atheistic).

  2) equal monthly pay to all members of the bethel community regardless of whether they are bc members or sweepers.

  this is something that still remains as an unattainable dream for the world.

  To any and all people who think there is "more good than bad" in JWs and who are "waiting on Jehovah". . . .

  I say: Go for it!

  IF I WERE STILL IN:

  Saturday morning at Starbucks hitting replay on a ChewyWitness.org video for four hours while I chat with "friends."

  Plus time-and-a half for weekends.

  It is paradise!

  Holy Grail of Free Energy Might be Possible

  by cofty in

  every chloroplast in every green leaf on planet earth is wonderfully efficient at absorbing energy from the sun.

  in combination with a complex protein enzyme h2o molecules are gently eased apart and combined with co2 to produce energy and oxygen.. a synthetic version of this process would make unlimited, clean cheap energy possible but it has so-far eluded chemical engineers.

  until now..... researchers at florida state university have discovered a method of using manganese oxide also known as birnessite to capture sunlight and then use that solar energy to create an oxidation reaction read more....

  One Year Later - A Thank You to Tony Morris.

  dear anthony morris, iii:.

  i wanted to send you a note of "thanks" on this special day.. why is this day special, you may ask?

  one year ago today, you, tony, woke me up to the fact that the governing body could not have jehovah's blessing or direction.. last year, on november 8th & 9th, 2014, the united states branch visit was broadcast to over 1,000,000 jehovah's witnesses across the country.. as i sat at the kingdom hall listening to the "historic occasion," i was ignoring certain doubts that had surfaced in the few months prior.

  is prince still a jehovah witness?

  from the look of his new album, i think he has different ideas.

  it will be interesting to see how they deal with this.

  I believe you might find Prince standing next to a purple cart on some street corner in the Miineapolis/StPaul metro area.

  What kind of poster are you?

  a while ago someone posted a link to the flame warrior guide, it seeks to define some different types of posters.

  http://www.flamewarriorsguide.com/.

  i thought it might be fun and lighten the current mood to reveal which "warrior" is closest to your style, in your opinion.

  Which bible character do you hate the most?

  by Bonsai in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the more i think about it, the more i feel an extreme dislike for the apostle paul.

  he was on par with hitler in his treatment of the jews before he "saw the light".

  he replaced jesus teachings of love and mercy with a more legalistic, pharisaical concept of devotion to god.. any evil person can come to believe in god and worship him if the scales were literally and miraculously removed from his eyes.

  David.

  When still in, I used to tell my wife, If David were in our congregation, we would think he's the biggest a-hole on the planet and we would have nothing to do with him.

  How confident are you about various so called facts?

  by slimboyfat in

  no facts about the world are absolutely certain.

  that being the case i wonder how others would rank amd rate their confidence in various factual statements about the world.

  i am going to rate my confidence in ten items of "knowledge" as a percentage.

  After consulting with Mrs. BOC, this was most certainly our CO. My sticking point was that he was married. Mrs. BOC affirmed that Redd did indeed get married.

  Also, I agree with AMNESIANO that he was given "the boot" and it wasn't anything in particular about him that led to his untimely dismissal.
