  Probability of Earth and life being how it is

  by ballistic in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  there are some things we don't know about existence and whether the earth is a simulation or even a creation.

  but we can do some statistical analysis on it.. the probability of a planet like earth existing in the goldilocks zone and having a moon that perfectly eclipses the sun is extremely low, but it's not impossible.

  the habitable zone (or goldilocks zone) around a star is the region where a planet could potentially support liquid water on its surface.

  how many of you here remember 1975?

  i hope the newer generations never forget.the true believers got shamed for it.

  those who were hedging their bets, fared much better.

  here is an example how the wts has "adjusted" scripture.

  the governing body has gone as far as to change the text of micah 6:8 in their 2013 new world translation of the holy scriptures (nwt) in order to be able to demand loyalty.

  i like to take a peek at the kids over on reddit every week or so.. this thread caught my eye:" curious….

  do any ex jw or pimo, still believe the world is ending.

  Green Handshakes - Taxable income in Australia

  by Listener in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was doing some research on the taxable status of money being gifted to co’s and travelling missionaries and was surprised with what i found.

  i had assumed that it was not taxable income in australia.. it is taxable income in australia and it‘s likely that the same rules apply in some other countries.. a registered religious institution only receives tax free status on donations because they have been endorsed by the australian tax office.

  travelling overseas and missionaries are not in this category.. there’s a tax ruling that goes into great detail.

  Blood decisions are now your problem: WT JULY 2025

  by raymond frantz in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the following is from the latest study watchtower july 2025, study article 28, paragraph 17:.

  each christian must make up his or her own mind about whether to accept or to reject these fractions.

  we may find it a challenge to understand this matter fully, but making decisions like this is part of the load that each of us must carry.

  About moral conscience - or is it what this is?

  by Marcel2025 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  hello, i have to ask you a question.. what is this telepathic inner voice speaking from among trees and bushes in public parks and which makes me feel cold shivers on my back associates with guilt and sadness if i step on snails or rip leaves or flowers from trees and bushes?.

  did i mention increased heartbeat, reddening of the face and a strong headache associated with this guilt?.

  it seems to speak about unconditional love for everything and everyone, animals, plants, people and that i should treat them with kindness and care even if they harm me.. also it seems to make me feel shivers of guilt and headaches if i have thoughts of obsession, pride or selfish ambition.
