Shying away from education leaves one scrambling for those people able to hold a conversation. Many of them 'friends' are not the brightest bulb in the drawer. If you find one, you've got a winner !

How did plants survive the Flood?
by dgp innoah is not said to have carried plants in his ark.
supposedly the flood was severe enough to cover "even the tallest mountains", which would mean that mount everest was covered.
and this for forty days.

By the way, where did Jesus say the deluge was universal?
For those who believe that the Bible is God’s Word, though, a global flood is more than a possibility. It is a fact. Jesus said to God: “Your word is truth.” (John 17:17) The apostle Paul wrote that God’s will is that “all sorts of men should be saved and come to an accurate knowledge of truth.” (1 Timothy 2:3, 4) How could Paul teach followers of Jesus the doctrinal truth if God’s Word contains myths?
Not only did Jesus believe that the Flood took place but he also believed that it was global. In his great prophecy about his presence and the end of this system of things, he likened those events to the time of Noah. (Matthew 24:37-39) The apostle Peter also wrote about the floodwaters in Noah’s day: “By those means the world of that time suffered destruction when it was deluged with water.”—2 Peter 3:6.w08 6/1 p. 8, Was the Flood of Noah’s Day Really Global?
The GB has insight from above - that's good enough for me !

Whenever I go there it seems the midweek meeting is going the same way the Book Study arrangement once did:
Attendance is as low as 50%
Evidently, the trend emerging toward 5 meetings per week over the coming years will be an all-out Sunday affair.

*** g79 3/22 p. 13 How Christians Should View Disco ***
Another Witness, who regretfully had to be expelled from the Christian congregation because he became swallowed up in the disco experience and committed all forms of fornication, later acknowledged: “It’s a jungle. Even if you go there with your wife and want to enjoy a little dancing, she is undressed and raped in the minds of the men there even before you get her out on the dance floor.”
Has that ever happened to any other witness? -

Victoria, Australia: Report on Oct. 11th hearing involving Steven Unthank
by AndersonsInfo invictoria, australia: report on oct. 11th hearing involving steven unthank.
(this report is from an anonymous xjw who attended the hearing.
i had no plans to turn up to the court hearing as an observer, as in my experience, it can take several hearings and a number of months before any court case gets rolling.

Recently I watched Lett in that 'Faith In Action' DVD - he has that stare on him throughout the interview. Something is wrong with that guy - I believe the needs medical attention.
