Evolution Hole #1 - Origin of Life
by shadow indisclaimer: my graduate degree is in business, not science so i'm writing as a layman in this field.
yes, i know that someone is going to say that evolution does not encompass this topic and should be sectioned off under abiogenesis.
i'm not trying to argue semantics here but it seems like a case of avoiding an uncomfortable subject.

Does the theory of gravity require the origin of planets. Is the atomic theory full of holes without knowing the origin of atoms. Is meteorology useless without knowing the origin of all the water? -

I almost said something inappropriate one time. A sister mentioned how guys are lucky, they only have to shave one part of there body.
She mentioned the legs and arm pits but my mind went a different direction.

Any funny stories of when a"brother" giving a talk, said something "funny" or "questionable", and didn't even realize it?
by Dunedain inthere were always all types of speakers in the org.
myself, growing up a "witness", must have heard all types of talks, and given by all manner of speakers, especially on sundays, when almost every week we would get a "visiting" brother giving the public talk.. sometimes, you would have a "great" speaker, all fluent and animated.
other times we would get a comical speaker, one who would maybe purposelly get a few laughs outta the audience.

I remember one time a brother giving his first 30min talk repeated the word sex at least five or six times in a row. The theme of the talk wasn't even sex. -

I heard some say that once the child is knowledgeable he is ready for baptism. When Jesus was 12 he could out debate the priests.But he still didn't get baptized till he was 30.
...and he also had a beard

The right to shun - wrong?
by Simon inmany people are understandably upset and angry at the notion that jws have the right to shun people.
it seems such an obvious "no brainer" cruel and inhuman thing to do - it must be wrong ... surely?.
of course we look at things from the perspective of those hurt and harmed by shunning.

Silence after stating my confusion about "144,000"
by tidalblitz inthe other night, i was told about a question that a friend's bible study had asked them.
the bible study asked: "if jesus is perfect, why does he need the 144,000 to help him rule?
" this friend does not know how to answer this question.

Well if God doesn't create harmful creatures then God didn't create Satan which begs the question, "where did Satan come from?" -

Were we meant to live forever?
by konceptual99 inso i believed for years that humans will one day revert to being able to live forever.
i was told the only reason we don't already is because adam and eve sinned.. if this is the case then why is nothing else in the universe capable of the same thing.
everything else has a finite lifespan.

What the JWs often forget is that even if Adam and Eve didn't eat from the tree of knowledge they would eventually die unless they eat from the tree of life (Genesis 3 22) -
