Fossils fail to provide a connection

by Doug Mason in

page 24 of “the origin of life” cites henry gee:.

a second, more serious challenge is the lack of proof that those creatures are somehow related.

specimens placed in the series are often separated by what researchers estimate to be millions of years.

This entry seems to blow away all I was taught by the Science Experts at the WT. :)

"when i was younger, i always did it for half an hour a day.

"Armageddon is imminent!"

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

Truth should never fear scrutiny.

I dont know if it was said, among the other completely obvious problems that we all ignored there is one more.

What ever water was in the "atmosphere" would raise atmospheric pressure.

i.e. if there were say 100 ft of rainwater to cover the earth over our heads, the atmospheric pressure would be the same as it would be 100 ft under the sea.

Creatures above the sea are built to take 15psi, not any more.

What would happen to your country if you could exchange your president for Trump?

by Wonderment in

what if we could exchange one president from another country to yours?...

say trump for trudeau, trudeau for trump, trump in exchange for your respective european country, etc -- for a few years?

would you consider it a win or a loss for your country?.

iwantoutnow

I would happily exchange him for for a sack of potatoes.

He will go down as one of the worst leaders in world history.

Trumps dad was a general contractor.

Are you insane? My plumber is a general contractor.

This sounds very familiar. Even the wording.

Did they reprint this from a WT fro 7 or 8 years ago?

P.S.

para 17. "Hard to understand things "

Gee I remember when we would go door to door and tell people that the bible was easy to understand. That you just needed to read it in context and how it agrees with itself, and that anyone if they are sincere can come to the right conclusion.

Guess that does not work for the GB (at least for the last 10 years I think).
Now the bible is a mystery only they can explain.
Doesn't sound like other religions, does it :)

Staying a Jehovah's Witness

why the shunning if someone leaves?

why are they working so hard to keep everyone in?

is it money?

Such as with the "overlapping" bandage of a fix on the Generation doctrine. (How effing ridiculous is that?!?!?!?)

That was the sign that They Have No Idea Whats Going On, and are worried.

Funny enough, I gave the concluding talk at the District introducing the Overlapping.
I tried for weeks to make sense of it and couldn't.
BUT! I am an elder in a congo spitting distance from Headquarters who was chosen to give the concluding talk (something I have never seen), I engaged cognitive dissidence in high gear.

Now if they came up with the Overlapping in 1979, they could say, see jehober is guiding us.
But when you fix a problem after the fact, you know all they are doing is making it up.

Iriddle80 - I have wondered about the GB a long time.

I think when it comes down to it - they are Victims of Victims.

That does not excuse anything of course.

I also think the are REALLY grasping at straws right know trying to figure out WTF is going on since every expectation and prediction has NOT happened.
