  Scientists Should Not Dismiss Genesis So Quickly

  by Chris Tann in

  2. bible

  nasa discovery proves the bible scientifically accurate.

  the debate.

  for decades there has been a long standing debate between science and religion as to the validity of the biblical genesis account of creation.

  Sometimes things seem 100% true. All evidence points to it being true, but as time goes on things are proved otherwise.

  Yes. At first reading as a child, the genesis account seems to be 100% true. Quite "reasonable." All the evidence (that watchtower supplied me) also pointed to it being true.

  Cofty, just because Iam reading one book about evolution, doesn't mean I'm going to believe it right off the bat.

  Actually, there is no need to "believe" in evolution.

  Well, I suppose on some level, you do need to "believe" that you actually exist and that you are in fact reading a book.

  Other than that. . . .

  TLTR.

  Would rather read the entire creation account right from genesis.

  Changed: Head coverings for sisters, w15 2/15 QFR

  by wifibandit in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  does a female kingdom publisher need to wear a head covering if she conducts a bible study in the presence of a male publisher?.

  in a questions from readers item published in the watchtower of july 15, 2002, it was stated that a sister should cover her head if she conducts a bible study in the presence of a male publisher, whether he is baptized or not.

  further consideration of the matter suggests that a modification to this direction is appropriate.. if the male publisher who accompanies the sister while she conducts an established bible study is baptized, the sister would certainly want to wear a head covering.

  I dont mean to sound mean, but they will reap what they have sown.

  Doesn't sound mean at all. More like rational and realistic. Best of luck dealing with this.

  Ferguson Shooting (Is my thinking on this all wrong.......)

  by out4good3 in

  1. social
  2. current

  i think everyone here can agree that walking down the street, even in the middle of the street, is not cause for having a clip emptied in your ass......... i can understand how the black community would be outraged by the injustice of seeing another black man dead in the street at the hands of the police under mysterious circumstances....... i hope that i'm not succumbing to the attempts to assinate the already well impuned character of the dead man...... however.

  i can't help but think that this could all have been avoided by exercising the proper discretion with fore-knowledge of the disadvantages people of color have when they are dealing with law enforcement in the united states.

  it is not as if this disadvantage has only since recently came to light.

  Against my better judgement I will comment on this, although I am not really taking a particular stance:

  In social psych class we learned about experiments done with regards to race/prejudice/violence.

  What they found in this one simulation/experiment was that white police officers will shoot a "black suspect" with a greater frequency than a "white suspect."

  They also found that black police officers will shoot a "black suspect" with greater frequency than a "white suspect."

  I am not entirely sure what this means, but it doesn't looks good for "black suspects."

  Honestly (and this is just my gut) I think the "divide" that has emerged in the US is more along socioeconomic lines rather than racial, i.e., a black kid (or any kid, for that matter) simply has a better chance of encountering violence of any sort being in a "poor" neighborhood as opposed to a more "wealthy" neighborhood.

  I'm not an expert on this stuff though.

  Anthony Morris III is really Anthony Esposito?

  by VM44 in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  can anyone confirm that gb member anthony morris iii's real birth name is anthony esposito?.

  if it is, that would explain why it has been hard to find his military record, or any other biographical information about him.. .

  VM44 - My wife came home FUMING after the Zoned Visit and said,"Who is this Anthony Morris guy?"

  She typed the info into google and found what you did: evidently he was born Anthony Esposito and was adopted.

  i've heard it mentioned a few times.. the rotating earth graphic in the background on jwtv rotates backwards.. i've mentioned it to the active and they are not concerned at all.. my response is, "it's something they are portraying that cannot be more wrong".. .

  two gb members have stood in front of it telling us to trust them.

  You know, for a bunch of guys who claim to have JC as their "Big Brother," you would think HE would have filled them in on which way the world turns.

  Hell, even the soap opera got it right!

  seriously, i am so thankful that the org has officially allowed the use of ipads and tablets at the kingdom hall!.

  it is the only thing that keeps me sane while sitting there....being able to log on to this site while pretending to follow along with the program!.

  i think i would have literally lost my mind without this lifeline!.
