Greetings from the land of ice and snow,,,, Last week I watched a tv show on the Iceman found frozen in Alps, about 10yrs ago. It was an update on what scientists have found the last few years. They say he is 5300 yrs old, which would put him at roughly 3300bc. They found an arrow tip in his back {which was new to me}, But also the contents of his stomach. It contained venison and goat meat mixed with assorted plant matter. 3300bc was before the flood according to witness doctrine. I remember learning preflood people were vegetarians, And man only started eating meat after the flood. ...... Any comments???

My Wife Says She'll Read Franz' Crisis Of Conscien

my wife has said that she would like to read coc!

Mr Spock
Crisis of Conscience was a very good book, but I thought IN SEARCH OF CHRISTIAN FREEDOM was better. He talked more on the Witness doctrines and explained a different viewpoint that was very easy to understand. Good Luck..........Spock

Are we really apostates?
by JH inif the jehovah witnesses are really the one and only true religion, and we did quit, then i agree that we are apostates.
but since we seem to all agree that they made wrong prophesies, and changed so often the meaning of the bible, why then do we call ourselves apostates?
if we quit a religion that didn't have the truth, then why are we so hard on ourselves?

Mr Spock
If you think about it --- Jesus was an apostate. So- logically-- we are in good company!!

Kingdom Hall decorating ideas
by freedom96 inas the holidays approach, i find myself in a festive spirit, though a bit fiesty as well.. i couldn't help but think that some of the local halls could use a little decorating for the holidays.
many halls have signs out by the street.
wouldn't they look better with a few stockings hanging from them?.

Mr Spock
I think a statue of Saint Russell and Saint Rutherford would look good in all the halls.. After all wer'nt they God's Faithfull and Discreet Slaves. We should show a little respect! :]

Soul vs spirit. How do JW's explain these scriptur
by betweenworlds ini know there must be a way that they explain these scriptures.
genesis 35:18 and the result was that as her soul was going out (because she died) she called his name benoni.
1 kings 17:21 and he proceeded to stretch himself upon the child three times and call to jehovah and say" "o jehovah my god, please cause the soul of this child to come back within him.".

Has anyone ever read THE BOOK OF ENOCH? It is quoted in the book of Jude, so the jews of Jesus day must have been familiar with it. Chapter 22 verse 3 says the following "Then Raphael, one of the holy angels who were with me, answered and said, These are the delightful places where the spirits, the souls of the dead, will be collected;for them were they formed; and here will be collected all the souls of the sons of men. verse 4... 'These places,in which they dwell, shall they occupy until the day of judgement, and until their appointed period." .......... These verses pretty much disprove the Witness doctrine on the soul.
