I really need to do more. I've been trying a lot lately. But it's hard to break the pattern of just coming home exhausted at the end of the day and not doing anything. That's not fair to my wife.

So my goal is to at least do one thing for her every day.

God evolved from chimpanzee diety

by freemindfade in

researchers say todays lord almighty shares many traits in common with the chimp deity, including color vision and omniscience.. .

berkeley, cachallenging long-held views on the origins of divinity, biologists at the university of california, berkeley, presented findings thursday that confirm god, the almighty creator of the universe, evolved from an ancient chimpanzee deity.. the recently discovered sacred ancestor, a divine chimp species scientists have named pan sanctorum, reportedly gave rise over millions of years to the lord our god, maker of heaven and earth.. although perhaps not obvious at first glance, there are actually overwhelming similarities between the supreme being of today and this early primate deity who preceded him, said dr. richard kamen, a leading biologist who also heads berkeleys paleotheology department.

the holy chimp moved around on all fours, but its descendants eventually began walking upright to expend less energy while foraging across the infinite reaches of the universe.

Well done, freemindfade.

What's really interesting is that Isaac didn't bring up 1975 or 1874 first, but it was the elders who did! It shows they're thoroughly familiar with TTATT talking points.

That line about Jehovah not forcing anyone to come here...it's such total horse crap.

Do the elder's really sincerely believe that born-in's don't feel stuck and forced when they start having doubts?

I'm so tired of these people.

Today's (4/12) WT study - all about Jesus

by OneEyedJoe in

today's watchtower study article is all about jesus.

this stuck out to me after a year of hanging out on here where one frequent point of criticism is that jws claim to be christians but never talk about jesus.. anyone think it's a coincidence that today was the "special talk" follow-up to the memorial?

i think not - this is the most attended sunday meeting of the year, complete with many ubms, studies, and miscellaneous other potential victims who have been subjected to a coordinated effort to pressure them into attending.

Don't forget about this year's Regional Convention theme: IMITATE JESUS!

Exclamation point is actually part of the title.

WT instructions on NOT copying the 'Shepherd Flock of God' book.

by Esse quam videri in

shepherd the flock of god.

1 peter 5:2.

this publication is congregation property.

cappytan

So, any thoughts on sending the PDF to my entire congregation email distribution list? Obviously I would use an anonymous address.

It would probably freak the elders out.

National Sibling's Day?

by thedepressedsoul in

i'm not sure how many of you are aware but today is national siblings day.

what i find odd is that social media, fb, instagram etc... i see tons and tons of witnesses posting pictures of their siblings with the caption or hash tag, "national siblings day".

how is that any difference then fathers day, mothers day and so on?

cappytan

Yep. All my uber dub friends shared a pic of them with their sibling and the hashtag.

WT addresses the "rapture" teaching.

by wifibandit in

look at paragraph 15 of the 2015 july 15th study edition pg 18-19.. http://imgur.com/3wparys.

.

basically they admit to teaching the rapture (for the anointed remnant), just don't call it that!.

cappytan

I was a full time servant for over six years and a high hour publisher when I wasn't pioneering.

I have to say, I have never met anyone in the ministry who believed in the rapture and believed that it would be their physical bodies taken to heaven.
