  The "generation" cover-up continues

  by proplog2 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  well, the new "generation" light has finally been released in print.

  this is important because it the centerpiece of their whole orientation.. it is still a disjointed coverup of why they have this doctrine in the first place.

  christ didn't come in 1874 or 1914. .

  WAR IS OVER-IF YOU WANT IT

  by proplog2 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  christmas is the time to talk about peace.

  jesus is called the prince of peace.. john lennon and yoko ono put out posters that read "war is over - if you want it".. peace doesn't depend on scientific progress.

  it certainly doesn't take prosperity and riches to have peace.

  i have had this problem all my life.

  i have a child that also has it.

  since people with adhd have a problem fitting into organizations do you think it may be one of the reasons why you just couldn't take the jw's any more.

  The necessity of failed prophetic dates

  by proplog2 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it is very tempting to ridicule the jw habit of setting dates for the end of the world/ armageddon/ great tribulation.

  but prophecy has been a significant part of the judaeo-christian panorama.

  there has also been a great deal of tension between "prophets" and "preists".. .

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  Who Restarted the Cold War?

  that's the title of this opinion piece by pat buchannan.

  daniel 11:40 says and in the time of [the] end the king of the south will engage with him in a pushing, and against him the king of the north will storm with chariots and with horsemen and with many ships; and he will certainly enter into the lands and flood over and pass through.".

  some translations say "battle" instead of "pushing".

  "Science and Sanity" available free on-line

  by proplog2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the book "science and sanity" by alfred korzybski is probably the most important book i've ever read.. it can turn ordinary minds into "genius" minds.

  (i'm not a genius but i certainly was an impaired imbecile before i read it).. it's not a quick read.

  the first part of the book is mostly non mathematical and i've read it several times.

  Redefinition of "Spiritual"

  by proplog2 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it's ok for modern thinkers to use archaic terms if we can show the term has use in our contemporary scientific world.. science tries to explain the behavior of "things" (including animals).

  the latin word "anima" means spirit or breath.

  ancient man was also scientific in orientation.
