Dancing girl test which way is she spinning for you?

by Hope4Others in

it's the great right brain vs left brain test ... do you see the dancer turning clockwise or anti-clockwise?

if clockwise, then you use more of the right side of the... brain and vice versa.

most of us would see the dancer turning anti-clockwise though you can try to focus and change the direction; see if you can do it.

Man, I'd give my right arm to be ambidextrous.

Counter clockwise most of the time, but if I look just at her foot, then the rest, she turns clockwise.

The voice in my head says, "Kill them. Kill them all."

Does the counter clockwise mean I'm crazy?

IMPORTANT: Elders Mtg at Patterson

by confusa in

jw
friends

a witness just informed me about a couple that we know who had their assembly recently, and it was announced at the private elder's meeting that there will be a special meeting with all the elders in the us in patterson.

it was mentioned that we are now living "in the end of end of times" and that the un is talking about prohibiting religions.

has anyone heard of this??

RunningMan

I remember back in the 80's, a fellow commented at the Watchtower that he had just returned from Brooklyn, and all the talk was about how the UN was on the verge of banning religion. They were just working out the logistics.

Another JW urban myth.

Does anyone know where Isaac Asimov mentioned this?

I checked "Asimov's guide to the Bible", but didn't find anything. (Of course, it's 1200 pages long).

The most likely source would be "Asimov's New Guide to Science (1984)"

Well, RB, let me offer you a belated welcome. This forum moves so fast that I miss most of the threads.

But, in a strange twist of irony, it just so happens that I am the person you were researching. It pays to google your own name every now and then.

So i ditched my book study 2 night... and felt like sharing a thought

by XOCO in

and it felt good "lowest sum of the earth" are we that evil because some of us decide to leave and choose a life that we want wheather it be with some goals and asperations or seeking another route of worship/non-worship, while still being alive on this earth today .

Why do Jehovah's Witnesses perceive X-JWs as like the "lowest sum of the earth"

It's very simple. Bad associations spoil useful habits.

In other words, normality is contagious, and you are showing early signs of infection. You must be quarantined.

If you believe in Evolution then your a fool! God really is REAL!

by Blackboo in

here are some questions evolution never bring up or will evade questioning.

these are serious questions that kill all the silly beliefs about how the earth or universe got here..and here is why.

think about this for a second we would not be here if nothing for all existence did not exist.

The argument from ignorance is indeed aptly named.
