Cofty, is there any chance you could you put your series into a PDF and upload it somewhere?
It would be really useful to have it as a single document.

340Calling Cofty and others regarding evolution
by dubstepped inso i have started down the path of trying to understand evolution, and to get the linear lies that the jws planted in my head out of it.
i bought an audiobook called "evolution: what the fossils say and why it matters" by donald prothero.
i heard it recommended on an atheist podcast that i listened to.

Jacob creating flocks of speckled sheep by having non-speckled sheep drink from a trough which had a speckled branch placed in it.
Yes, all the pure white sheep who drank from this trough went on to produce speckled sheep that he could keep.
The gene changing properties of a speckled branch.
Jacob should have filled the trough with insects as well, to give all of the sheep six legs. Sheesh.

Hi Alanv, this list of countries came from a Google search of countries in Europe, nothing more sophisticated than that, hence my opening comment "countries which roughly constitute Europe".
The 2017 figures came from the list darkspilver helpfully compiled (thanks darkspilver!) and the 2016 figures are from the yearbook.
I had no agenda or preconception prior to compiling the list, so did not pick and choose countries in order to affirm a bias. I was simply looking for whether Europe seems to be stagnant, increasing or decreasing.

QFR - Posting JW publications on a personal website/social media
by Listener inthe following is a qfr from the april, 2018 watchtower.
just a couple of articles back the organization was explaining how jws need to be encouraging and even when admonishing congregations jesus would start out with encouraging words.
we see none of this in the qfr, rather, it is heavy handed and legally incorrect.. why is it not permissible to post publications of jehovah’s witnesses on a personal website or on social media?.

WT April 2018 QFR By directing interested people to our official websites, we are connecting them with the one true source of spiritual food, “the faithful and discreet slave.”
How does this tie up with
Watchtower (Study Edition), February 2017, pg. 26:
Jesus did not tell us that his faithful slave would produce perfect spiritual food.

St. George I'm sure those in Scotland and Northern Ireland will be delighted to have the opportunity to drive to Chelmsford, buy their hat and boots in order to work for the day before returning home satisfied
Just like the ministry then. Start on a nearby call, drive about for a few hours and end on a call back in town. Everyone self deceives by proudly giving Jehovah their time, but achieving precisely nothing.

Dinosaurs in Paradise
by The Real Edward Gentry ini'm so thankful for sites such as this.
i realise it's our imperfection but god's organization is not always open to 'outside the box' thinkers such as ourselves.
i've been researching dinosaurs and god's reason for not preserving these beasts beyond the flood of noah's day.

TREG I've been researching dinosaurs and God's reason for not preserving these beasts beyond the flood of Noah's day.
So the Bible lies then. Noah was not instructed to preserve two of every kind at all. He was told to exclude certain animals to ensure their extinction.
Why does the Bible lie about this? What else has it lied about?
Maybe you don't "think outside the box" quite as much as you imagine you do.
