Is this having the same impact in the UK? Are British JWs aware of this?

when i was a jw kid, i got the impression that jws (like other die-hard creationists) attributed all evidences of an ice age to the noachian flood.
problem is, that point of view seems to think that the polar ice caps are the only natural phenomenon that needed explanation (read "explaining away").. the noachian flood perspective does not explain what large glaciers are doing in places like papua new guniea or new zealand.. the same biblical explanation also does not address the evidence for multiple (~4?
They liked it but they said it wasn't as good as Monsters Inc.
...habakkuk 2:3 - "for the vision is yet for the appointed time, and it keeps panting on to the end, and it will not tell a lie.
even if it should delay, keep in expectation of it; for it will without fail come true.
my die-hard jw mother just loves this scripture.
And the District Assembly theme will be:
BEWARE OF PRESUMPTIOUSLY PUSHING AHEAD.
The Keynote Address (manuscript) will begin:
Many have mistakenly pushed ahead and taken the gentle promptings of The Faithful and Discreet Slave, as a reason to live as if Armageddon is about to happen in the coming months. NEVER has the Slave said such a thing, and what a mistake it would be to fall into such a snare of the Devil.
It will end. . .
So be ASSURED brothers, now is NOT a time for slacking. Jehovah will speed things along in His own due time.
i just posted a little of my singing lesson experience on black pearl's topic about piano lessons.
i was just wondering if anyone else is a vocalist.
have you taken lessons?
Now let me think. . .
can anyone compile a list of as many as possible past and present co/do's from the uk?
I'm just trying to get my head round the question
can anyone compile a list of as many as possible past and present co/do's from the uk?
What do you want the list for?
i finally called the jw who placed a book with me last fall and wanted to start a study with me.
i didn't expect to talk two hours, but he was willing.
i still don't know why he didn't hang up on me.
In the US you have quite a few "Mega Churches" like Joel Osteen's(?) church with 20000 members, and several others which you're probably more aware of than me.
Don't they have a much bigger "growth" rate than the Witnesses?
Or don't they count those type of churches as a "religion"?
"Fastest growing" is a nonsense any way. If I start my own "religion" today, and recruit 5 new followers in a week I'm growing at 600% per week
But if I have 60 000 000 followers and recruit 6 000 000 in a year I'm "only" growing at a measly 10% per year!
my daughter, jennie, got an ipod for christmas.
currently we are downloading her mp3's from a cd to itunes.
however i am very confused about how to then download songs from the itunes library to the ipod.
Hi
You rip the CD into iTunes.
Then you highlight the tracks/album you want and then "drag and drop it" into (Your iPod) icon in the left "margin"
.
the 7th of july 2007 would be a 'perfect' date for it don't you think?
.
Hi
Sorry for the thread hijack but did you know that on that date they will be revealing the result of the poll for the New Seven Wonders of the World!

just a little breaking news:.
after several years of a great friendship with diane (previously posted as xena) things have started to really come together recently and i've succumbed to making an honest woman of her (or at least as honest as it's possible to make her.
last night (xmas day) i popped the question and she agreed to marry me (i wonder if she knows what she's let herself in for!!!)..
Wow!
I'm always the last to get to hear these sort of things!
Congrats LT. Not sure I 'know' Xena but congrats too!
