"If the Earth were just a little bit further from or closer to the Sun, we would all freeze or burn"
by Island Man ini'm sure we've all heard this argument by theists employing the fine-tuning argument.
are you aware, however, of exactly how much this "little bit" really is?
theists would have us think that the slightest change in the distance would have drastic implications for survivability.

What a lousy creator, it took him billions upon billions of attempts to finally get it right. Think about all those planets in the universe that were part of God's failed attempts to produce the ideal environment for life. -

I strongly believe in God and not the doctors
What's the point of going to the doctors. Just pray, and if it's the will of God, you will live a long life to do all kinds of charitable works. If God decides to take you, then I am sure HE will figure out how best use your money, just pray for HIS assistance after your death.

Never been in your shoes, but I think it's too early to expect the levels of happiness and comfort you had before. your world was gradually, but totally shattered. It's going to take time to make new friends and create new healthy bonds with other people who have never been in a cult. Perhaps some here will suggest Steve Hassan's books to reinforce that you are doing the right thing, but also to get rid of the guilt induced by the cult mentality.
Stay strong for your own and your daughter's sake.

I believe he has always been in existence since the dawn of time. But I do have a propose. Maybe he created himself overtime from a weaker version? That's just a speculation and we won't know until we all die.
Looter,
You are brilliant!! I really underestimated you. I kept thinking that you were a believer using irrational arguments to convert ex-believers. But now that I got the divine spark in my brain I realized that what you really are is a non-believer posing as a believer trying to show how silly, irrational and...well, giving our current knowledge of the universe, how ridiculous the argumentation of believers is. What you really want is current believers to feel embarrassed so they can research the subject a little deeper and inevitably become non-believers. Absolutely brilliant brother!!!

Are the Elders harder on Women
by Steel ini was having a discussion with an old friend last night.
her parents are divorced and his mother never became “one of jehovah witnesses “ .
long story short she claims elders are generally hardier on women than men.

Yes I have heard of elders who get hard-on women, who are not their wives. They rarely or never get hard-on their wives.

Sliding,
That's funny, but very, very close to reality
Joe1234
I believe they arranged their own flight (quite cheap, about $450 round trip from Calif.). But I don't know the rest.

I was told that it was not international because only 4 or 5 countries were invited, Brazil, Cuba, U.S, and Guyana.

An hour ago I went to bid good bye my two brothers in law and their wives (all elders/elderettes). They were invited to the special assembly in Puerto Rico this coming weekend. They are boarding the plane in about three hours (leaves at 1:00 am Pacific. time). It's the red eye that makes a short stop in Atlanta, then goes to Puerto Rico and arrives at 3:00 pm.
What's the big deal you may say. Well, everyone was already dressing up for a meeting: women in Amish dresses and men with suit and tie. The assembly starts next Friday for God's sake. This is the summer and they are going to a country with tropical weather. Oh I forgot, one of my SIL had already the assembly ID pinned to her dress. I was told that they were asked to dress up even in the plane.
They are going to ridiculous lengths to save a badly damaged image.

Always glad to see you making videos. But I am specially happy for you because you represent the very people who absolutely don't belong to this organization. The young and the bright have endless possibilities to make their lives better and the lives of other people. As we get older, especially when we are poor an uneducated, those possibilities start disappearing. So it's sad to admit, but cults sometimes do some good to these type of people.
Have a happy life. Don't forget that you need to grow the population. Young workers have to contribute to my Social Security when I start withdrawing, 20 years from now.

jwfacts or jwinterpretations?
by slimboyfat injwfacts is a great website, but in view of the fact that "there are no facts, only interpretations", as nietzsche said, should the website be renamed jwinterpretations instead?
