at meeting yesterday a thought came to me - my mind was wandering most of the session as it was so boring - about how the jws say that god will put it into the hearts of the political leaders to overturn religion at the start of the great tribulation.
they also claim this about maneuvered events in the ot too.
jws also claim that when someone has the right heart condition, they come to find jah.
Yes Tinker you are right.
On that same line, god has to put it into the minds of the nations to turn on his people??? So god has to take away the Free Will of the nations to do something (they would have not done) attack JWs? god makes people do evil things? Really? How is that just? How does that answer anything? Why not just put it in their hearts to worship god?
so what scriptures do you think will never make the cut?i will start off with one to warm you all up.. 1 corinthians 4:6 - do not go beyond the things that are written,.
This seems like unlikely choice considering the treatment of the Not-so-Special Pioneers.
LUKE 14:31
Or what king marching out against another king in war does not first sit down and take counsel whether he is able with 10,000 troops to stand up to the one who comes against him with 20,000?
just astonishing.. when i was a child we were taught that fossils were nothing more than mineral ghosts of ancient bones.
even the protein structures can be studied using high resolution mass spectrometry.
this will allow researchers to study the evolution of proteins.
there is no end to their madness.
the co gave a talk on inspired error.
i have never heard of it.
All I can say is when our CO gave that talk, I wanted to vomit. I also know it did not go down well with everyone, but the masses who are under the spell eat it up.
The worst part was the last one.
"Oh yes, we just extended the time of they end with our crazy overlapping generations crap, and yes Br Splaine used a chart that had the time from Now to the End be almost as long as the time before that - but its obvious you are all fools and unfaithful for thinking the end isnt going to be the day after next Tuesday."
Your christian brothers, bla bla bla
so i'm reading the book "the atheist book of bible stories" and something just occurred to me.. noahs ark rested on the top of mount ararat.
how the hell did all the land animals, dinosaurs and other monsters get to ground level?
did noah and his family just push them off the mountain and hope for the best?

I love the Ass speaking! I find it so amazing - no one askes - Hmmm - if they guys donkey just started to talk to him, do you think maybe he would have reacted differently than to have a conversation back with it?
Or did all donkeys talk back then?
You know you could swap out that story and put Jack and the Beanstalk in - and no one would blink an eye.

.. re: review of circuit account balances.
i thought that the 1975 thing started in the mid to late 60's, but it seems the seeds were sown two decades earlier.is this the earliest reference to it?.
18 how many today are awake to the fact that the lord christ jesus, by his resurrection of the faithful bride members that slept in death, is taking his "bride" unto his father's house and the marriage of the lamb has begun' .... they do not say, 'it is a long time yet to the wind-up, and, according to the present understanding of bible chronology, six thousand years of human history will end first in the coming seventies and till then it is a long stretch to serve the lord continuously and undividedly.'.
... they keep their eye and heart on jehovah's kingdom, and not on the time clock.
Stay alive till 75 - is my motto!

I was really smart of god too have Noah kill one of each of the some of the "clean" animals so as to make a great kiss but sacrifice to the big guy in the sky. I guess wiping our 50 million species of animals just wasnt enough death for our humble and loving god? He needed a few more.
Amazing, considering how difficult it is today with near extinct species to get to to mate and have a healthy offspring. I guess god made sure the unclean animals (since there were only 2 each) had perfect animal sex - and there never happened to be an accident - nor a hungry predator near them?
Just shows us our god is an awesome god!
