  It’s such a shame that Lloyd Evans has become such a poster child of what happens if you leave JWs and become apostate.

  it’s like saying you leave and you will mess up your life, betray your family with prostitution and end up suicidal

  job 26:7 he stretches out the northern sky over empty space, well should it be the southern that has empty space under it?.

  the north pole has the earth under it?.

  the south pole has empty space under it?.

  A few months ago it was the suggested presentation we all kept going over that verse saying see the Bible writers knew the shape of the Earth. I wonder how many JWs have a reply no they didn’t they said circle which is what flat earthers believe.

  in the footnote the asterisk on the word circle says it could be translated sphere.

  but did they have another word for sphere? We’re there any spheres back then? There are no perfect spheres in nature. Eggs, pearls even the nearest spherical objects are not spheres so did they have a word for it?

  Does anyone remember a talk he gave where he said something along the lines of his father asked him where did all his money go? His father was asking him where all his inheritance is going to and what are “they” doing with it all.

  he said to his dad “I’m part of the “they”

  everyone laughed

  It’s been long enough now, has anyone done a drive past yet?

  he fact that he is still driving the old car that he was caught red handed buying in unhealthy amount of whiskey with us very telling.

  His father had a lot of money but it may be the case he gave it all to the Borg which helped him become GB in the first place, now maybe there is a legal battle or something which is why he got two houses out of the deal?

  He does seem to visit the UK a lot, the fact that he sometimes gets involved with dating companies who take money off lonely people to help them get dates is very telling.

  Nic, all the miracles in the Bible are impossible from a scientific point of view. This is why they are called miracles, duh.

  Raising people from the dead, walking on water, turning water into wine. Scientifically impossible, otherwise they wouldn’t be called miracles.

  Im agnostic so won’t commit to if the universe started by chance or by design. If it was by design then the designer could easily make miracles happen but anyway this is off the point of this thread.

  the point of this thread is - are there any examples of Bible writers knowing things that humans could not have known at the time?

  JWs use many examples like the shape of the earth, DNA ie you saw even the embryo of me, in your book it many parts were down in writing

  and bacterial hygiene the Israelites had to burry the excrement outside the camp. At a time when humans didn’t know about bacteria and infection.

  but all these things are subjective not conclusive. These could have been men writing and got lucky with their guesses.

  JWs say how could they know about the earth being a circle hanging on nothing? But this is exactly what humans thought at the time, they thought it was a flat circle hanging on nothing

  Hang on nic, it’s ridiculous to argue miraculous things couldn’t happen because of science. Of course not that is why they are called miracles 🤣

  we are not talking about if the miracles were possible of course they are impossible. Again that’s why they are miracles.

  what we are talking about here from a scientific point of view is it true what the JWs say that Bible writers wrote about things that humans couldn’t have known about if not inspired by God.

  the examples used by JWs is flat earth, DNA and bacteria

  but all these points could be argued about

  Road to nowhere yes this happened a lot in Bethel. I remember hearing how some houses had married couples and single brother sharing kitchens and bathrooms

  things like single brothers noticing the sisters in underwear or with just a towel. These sisters were not getting something they needed which is why these ‘accidents’ kept happening

  What was he talking about the problems in the missionary homes?

  he says 2:09mins “you put humans together like that, (scoffs/laughs,) heads together, doing zone visits I said this has got to change, one after another needing an appointment”

  my only question is what the hell is different putting humans together like that????? Isn’t this how humans have always lived together?

  what is the problem he is talking about

  Nic do you think the author of the Bible gets it right or wrong on scientific matters?

  can you give examples?
