Why did Jehovah Kill all the animals in the flood? What purpose did it serve??

by pistolpete in

some of my jw family that is waking up posed that question to my jw family that is still hanging on to jw belief.. the stepbrother that posed that question told me;.

"in all these years of being a jw, i actually never gave it much thought as to why jehovah had to kill millions of innocent animals that had nothing to do with mankind becoming evil.".

i keep picturing in my mind, all the baby puppies and kitties that were destroyed by jehovah.

Perhaps you all are seeing it from a human viewpoint. Who saw the film Prometheus? His race was responsible for seeding the earth. But then they realized they created a pest and wanted to get rid of it. Thinking here of the dinosaurs. Experiment gone wrong perhaps?

Another analogy of an ant farm. If your beloved ants escaped and infested your room, you get rid of them very quickly. Same with an infestation of cockroaches. You call pest control. In one of the states in the US they reintroduced wolves. The wolves did so well, they are busy legislating for them to be culled to a more managable 1500 or so. By the way, the legislation was introduced by ranchers.

Or the clever people create this wonderful virus. But now it starts killing people. Now they work around the clock to get rid of it.

So all these things depend on the viewpoint of the interested parties. Don't think compassion comes into it.

What Do You Think of Dr. Fauci?

by minimus in

jw
friends

last year millions of people were singing his praises.

what’s your opinion of him right now?.

Vidqun

For one, I read somewhere Dr. Fauci is the highest paid government employee in the US. His salary is higher than that of the president.

Second fact, Dr. Fauci's National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), through a subagency EcoHealth funded gain-of-function research into manipulating bat COVID to be more transmissible to humans.

For context, in 2014, the Obama administration temporarily suspended federal funding for gain-of-function research into manipulating bat COVID to be more transmissible to humans. Four months prior to that decision, the NIH shifted this research to the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) via a grant to nonprofit group EcoHealth Alliance, headed by Peter Daszak.

Former CDC Director Robert Redfield says that SARS-CoV-2, the virus which causes COVID-19, did not originate from a wet market in Wuhan, China, and instead escaped from a nearby lab which was performing gain-of-function research on bat coronaviruses to make them more easily infect humans.

On the other hand, Dr. Anthony Fauci said during a White House press briefing that 'most scientists believe COVID-19 didn't come from a lab,' contradicting viral comments to CNN by former CDC Director Robert Redfield.

So, who do you believe?

"New light": how and when did this idea start?

by psyco in

how and when did the "understanding" of the progressive ("new light") understanding start?.

anybody knows?.

thanks!.

I agree with Pete. if you have that many flip-flops, you will have to find a way to justify your mistakes. They cannot blame Jesus or God's spirit for the mistakes. That just doesn't sound right. Thus they resort to their cop out, "the light is keeps getting brighter." By the way, it proves that they are not in direct contact with God, His spirit or Jesus. No red telephone connected to heaven, as they claim. They are guessing and embellishing the same as the rest of us.

Waton, the signs are there. Around the sun are concentrated a family of huge stellar cores, i.e., brown and red dwarfs, which can be readily observed on a clear day with normal photographic equipment fitted with Polaroid and light density filters. The stellar cores sap the sun of its corona, causing it to emit predominantly high energy photons which we register as red and blue light (red + blue > purple). This causes the earth to be constantly bombarded by high levels of radiation. Massive explosions of the sun sporadically eject some of the smaller stellar cores, scattering them all over the solar system. Because of their enormous size, these are to cause carnage on the surface of the earth by means of climate change and tidal fluctuations. Underneath, these are to stir up the oceans of magma of the mantle, sure to increase the amount of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. The accompanying debris increases the potential for fiery meteor showers. Last, but not least, is the developing pole shift. Magnetic north is already moving south at a rapid rate. I have written a book about it. See example at bottom. If you are interested, send me an e-mail address and I'll send you a PDF copy. Not easy reading but I am sure you will manage.

Menrov, as a matter of fact, Christ has not started ruling as yet. He will only take over the rulership of the world after the seventh trumpet blast (cf. Rev. 11:14, 15) which points to the future. I have researched it and can demonstrate it by using the Greek words stephanos (laurel wreath) and cornona (crown or diadem) in the book of Revelation.

στέφανος, like the Latin corona, is a crown in the sense of a chaplet, wreath, or garland, the badge of victory in the games, of civic worth, of military valour, of nuptial joy, of festal gladness. The crown worn by the rider of the white horse (Rev. 6:2), however, is clearly a victory wreath and serves to designate victory as the task of this rider. See EDNT.

John continues: “And I saw the heaven opened, and, look! a white horse. And the one seated upon it is called Faithful and True, and he judges and carries on war in righteousness. His eyes are a fiery flame, and upon his head are many diadems” [διαδήματα πολλά, NA28]. John explains what this means: “He has a name written that no one knows but he himself, And upon his outer garment, even upon his thigh, he has a name written, King of kings and Lord of lords.” His status as God’s appointed warrior king is confirmed by him wearing “many diadems” (Rev. 19:11, 12, 16).

διάδημα (διαδέω, to bind round), the diadem is the sign of royal status, i.e., the blue band marked with white with which Persian kings used to bind on the turban or tiara; the kingly ornament for the head. Rev. 12:3: the dragon has “seven diadems” on its seven heads; 13:1: the beast has “ten diadems” on its ten horns; 19:12: the rider of the white horse has “many diadems” on his head. This makes it clear that Christ’s kingship is superior to that of the dragon and its beast. See EDNT and Thayer.
