Yes ziddina, I live very near the Gulf Coast. We have salt domes here. Years ago ( about 20-25?), Texaco was drilling a gas well in a freshwater lake. They drilled into a salt cavern beneath the lake. Water was flowing backwards out of the Gulf as the salt cavern filled. Eventually, the situation stabilized, but the lake stayed a freshwater lake because once the salinity saturation of the fresh water that had gone done the hole and into the salt mine had reached 100%, no more salt dissolved. Thus, my question to them about ocean currents and the Ark not drifting very far.

the global Noahic flood is truth
by undercover inthat's not my assertion... that quote belongs to "godrulz" who said it on a thread introducing a newbie.
instead of hijacking that one, i thought i'd repeat here.. now, mr. godrulz... are you prepared to back that statement up with some proof?.

Looks like a browser issue with the paragraphs. Thank you for the suggestions. Perhaps someone can separate my post into paragraphs. I asked them why there were no kangaroo fossils between Turkey and Malasyia for the return journey after the flood. I asked them how kangaroos got back to Australia without a land bridge from Malaysia to reach an island continent. I asked them about ice core samples in Anarctica and Greenland; the depth of the cores and the climatic record that was being revealed by the layers in the core samples and the fact that if it had never rained berfore the flood, it had never snowed before the flood. I asked them about glaciation and its slow motion process and the moraines the delineate their farthest progress. I asked them why with strong ocean currents and a year-long flood why Noah and his boat never drifted very far from the land of Eden. I asked them how much water in inches per hour for 40 days could safely fall from the sky without damaging the Ark and that if the lions share of the water had come from the watery deep and was returning there, why did continents have to rise to allow the water to recede. They said they'd be back.

Thank you, guys, for responding. Can you help me create paragraphs. Don't understand why it's jammed into one.

Sorry that it's jammed together into a single paragraph. Haven't posted in years. I used spacing to create paragraphs in my post. Can someone tell me the secret of making it happen? Thanks

Can someone familiar with JW beliefs on the flood provide a bit of help? Had a pair come by about a month ago, one about 30, the other near 70. Stated my skepticism about the flood and used the following two concepts: 1) Many species of trees (I used the cypress which is local to my region) are not salt-water tolerant, not even their seeds. You have to transplant a seedling to replace. 2) Before the flood, the ocean had to be extremely saline; at the least, more so than now (if all the water is still here by their claim). This would have either killed the marine life or they would have had to adapt (evolve) very quickly into creatures that tolerated a much more saline habitat. The older gent simply stated that the oceans were fresh water bodies before the flood and that there was a salt source that gradually dissolved to create salty oceans. My question: Is this a universal JW belief? First time ever hearing it. I asked them several other questions about the flood and they said they'd be back. Been a month now. A bit of research I did that came from USGS said that if you could remove all of the salt from the oceans, it would form a layer 500 feet thick that would cover the planet. Trying to cut it down to size as a salt source that would dissolve to form salt oceans, it would be a salt continent measuring about 3300 miles square and 4000 feet tall.

Avoiding the Meeting
by brotherdan inso, darth plaugeis (or however you spell it) has suggested that the best way to get out of going to the meeting is to tell your wife that it's time to get ready for the meeting, and when her back is turned hit her over the head with a large object.. i'm sure there are better ways to get out of going.
i'm looking for some real ideas here.
" i like the whole getting your wife (or husband) drunk before the meeting so they won't want to go idea.

Warning!!! Do NOT load yourself up on salt water at work if you have a long commute or if there is a risk of being stuck in traffic. Otherwise you'll miss the meeting cuz you're scrubbing the drivers seat in you car.
Once this kicks in, you don't dare sneeze, cough, or fart without being firmly planted on the loo.

You don't have to fake explosive diarrhea. You can create it anytime you want. When you come home after work on a meeting night, drink several glasses of heavily salted water. Works in 1 to 3 hours depending on your digestive system and lasts for several hours. She'll be unable to say you're faking it.

That pesky little comma!
by Gill ini was thinking about that 'pesky little comma' that the jws have in their nwt.. because of that pesky little mark, jws are able to twist and turn in the wind with their 'soul' doctrine.. did jesus say to the evildoer 'truly i tell you today, you will be with me in paradise.'.
or did he say 'truly i tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.'.
what a difference a little speck can make on a page!.

Has anyone ever asked a JW this question :
Does this mean that the other criminal was judged then and there and will not be ressurrected at all?
If he is not judged at that moment, then Christ's statement does not appear to be singling the seemingly favorable criminal out for anything special that the other criminal wasn't also going to get.

Thanks, Estephan. I'm going to chalk this thread up to my stupidity. I'm sure you're sincerely trying to reply to my questions, but I seem to be missing it.
