All this information really does is deepen the mystery about the self awareness of mankind and how in such little progression there was over such a long period of time.

Evidence of Human Activity in Northern Siberia 45,000 years ago.
by fulltimestudent inthis information makes the biblical dating of human origins a sad joke.
quote: " when they dated the remains, the researchers got another surprise: the mammoth died 45,000 years ago.
that means that humans lived in the arctic more than 10,000 years earlier than scientists believed, according to a new study.

The Hermit's story PART 4
by The Hermit inpart 4 1992-1994. after the events of april 1992 my dad went through a drastic change of attitude.
he would order as many books he could from the hall's library; the green insight books, bound volumes of past watchowers and awake magazines, interlinear greek scriptures, reasoning from the scritpures, the list goes on.
in those days you had to go to his special room he called his office if you wanted to find him, usually sitting at his desk with his nose in the wt books and writing stuff down on paper.

Your dad sounds like a pretty stand up guy. People like him are the reason they dumbed down the literature. -

Jw style encouragement - Return or perish....
by Tornintwo ini haven't been able to post much recently, just started a new job with long hours... but i'm thinking of you all and drop in when i can.
anyway i've been meaning to tell you about this because thought it would tickle some of you.... 5 months after my last meeting, i've just had two "kind and loving" 'come back' messages/cards from different people both using the same days text from dec. 31st which says: .
"it is not a desirable thing with my father who is in heaven for one of these little ones to perish" matt 18:14. jehovah cares deeply about all those who have expressed love for his name, even if they are not actively serving him at present.

You would think if jehovah witnesses were so important in god larger plan they would news for more than just raping children and letting babies bleed to death.
Is it just me when a turn on the news I see the places talked about in bible, I see the people talked about in the bible yet how often do dubs Crack a nighty news cast?
Sorry, my evangelical roots are showing.

My Personal Proof That Elders Are Not Appointed by Holy Spirit
by TMS inthis topic is not about men living sinfully at the time of their appointment as elders.
it is not about pedophile elders, although i've personally known three, two who were pedophiles at the time of their appointment by the governing body of jehovah's witnesses.. first of all a quick summary of what jehovah's witnesses are taught about the appointment of elders and ministerial servants:.
before the visit of the circuit overseer, the local elders meet to consider who, if any, among the local congregation they will recommend as elders or .

Parallel holidays
by Clambake inso my wife congregation had a huge wing ding on jan. 2 complete with live band / food dancing and alcohol.
yet her company had a yearend party on nov. 15 which she couldn’t go to because it could be perceived as a christmas party.
i am supposed to be worried that the third century church set up a parallel festival with the winter solace to try and get pagans to convert to christianity but they pull crap like this ?

The whole thing stinks.
I am not mad at my wife, she is actually pretty good around the holidays.

Evolution is a Fact #3 - ERVs
by cofty inpart 1 - protein functional redundancy.... part 2 - dna functional redundancy.... imagine you are teacher with suspicions that some of your pupils have been copying from each other.
comparing the correct answers in all of their assignments might not provide conclusive evidence.
they could simply claim they had all carefully revised the same textbooks so it shouldn't be surprising that they all gave the same answers.

Coming to a non-science or religious related forum and posting evolution related material is proselytizing.
The militant atheist is quite annoying.

These threads aren’t about informing, they are about proselytizing. I really think these forums should be a proselytizing free zone.
Its sad people can’t see though the bullshit.

At the doors.
by Sabin inwhat were some of the derogatory things you heard or said about house holders?

I just literally 5 mins ago just had two Mormons knock on my door. They asked if I would like to hear the gossip of jesus christ. I told them no thanks but invited them in to warm up and asked if they would like some hot chocolate.
They said no thanks but asked if I know anyone who would be interested in the message. I pointed to the elder who lives two houses down from me. I asked if I could watch what happens.
Hi we are from the church of jesus christ of latter day saints...................slam. Too funny.

About six month ago an Elder approached me and asked me if I would re-start my study. I told him with the current WTS shunning policy for even as much as disagreeing with anything the society teaches, I don’t think if it possible to have a sincere discussion about anything biblically related.
He continued to push the point till I just flat told him “I think you just hand out magazines you don’t understand to people who don’t want them to keep your family from shunning you. That is all you are about “.
I highly doubt there is any real sincerity too all these so called science threads other than to annoy. Like I said before, if you were really sincere you won’t be here.

You don’t get it
This isn’t about creationism vs evolution or theist vs atheists.
If I wanted to talk football I would hang out at NFL.com
If I wanted to talk muscle cars I would hang at hotrodworld.com
Do you see a common theme?
I am tired of scrolling past your shit every day pretending your Bill Nye the science guy.
