I wonder if the carts will survive the big A .... they will be useful for transporting rotting corpses, i wonder if the 'sisters' will help, and perhaps stop for coffee between corpse dumpings. Will they give a thought to the dead pregnant mums and babies who were oh so wicked that they had to be exterminated in the same way by the hand of their loving god in the great flood of noah !!

paradise could last twice as long elsewhere
by waton in6 planets around the dim, slow burning star trappist-1, have the temperature to permit [almost better, longer] "everlasting life" in paradise.
this distant "sun" will give light for another ~ 10 billion years, unlike our sun, which is already half done., with only ~ 4 to go.
everlasting, overlapping life on our planet: naturally impossible.

In the 60s we used to imagine that we might be able to travel to other planets ( with the help of jehovah of course !! ) as we reasoned on the purpose of the vastness of his creation.....i guess a conditioned mind can take take you into realms of delusional madness !! Lol

Hi st george... that looks like a bullit in clubman trim with a 'beeza goldie style pipe' very nice and just the job for that retro run to the seaside !!.

Oh yes! Would you believe i was a jw rocker along with other 'brothers' in the cong' we rode our bsa's , triumphs , matchless and nortons to the hall parking in an enclosed side corridor with access to the street. Even a future elder rode a nice norton twin. Another older brother who from time to time we assisted in his workshop ( probably to keep us gainfully employed) owned a manx racing norton . I rode from my home wearing a sensible jacket only to change into my tatty leather jacket with studs and painted script on the back ' 100 rockers '. Only the elder is still a jw. By coincidence at a recent funeral of a jw family member an older sister reminded me of those 60s days saying " oh i remember you and ..... with your motorbikes and leather jackets". Actually i started my biking days with a couple of 50s LD lambrettas ,but when i rode a friends royal Enfield cafe racer i was hooked. There were quite a lot of 'mods'where i lived i knew most of them from school and where they hung about as i passed on my bike i would get a few choice words shouted at me but mostly we were pretty friendly. One instance at the cafe we frequented, which was close to the ice rink where a lot of mods went we had a bit of a scuffle when someone kicked our bikes and they collapsed like dominoes !! I was also a big rock n roll fan and to this day i still play in a retro rock n roll band....ahhh great days !!

The constant drip of shunning policy from watchtower laced with the consequential action if a person fails to comply (which could result in being condemned at the big A if you defy the mother organization ) is an action which contributes to brainwashing. This concentration of fear does imo produce an enforcing climate to ensure compliance. Any belief system of indoctrination which results in brainwashing through fear for ones life could certainly violate the free will of those unfortunate enough to be so afflicted.

Infinity versus nothing
by Fisherman insome people like to believe in something others believe in nothing; so in what location did the substance that expanded into the time/space universe exist before the big bang?
where did the energy that caused the big band come from?
how did the substance that became the big bang change from being inert and sterile and come to life to having the properties and drive that it does?

Excluding god as the cause at least imo is evidence of human beings using intelligence,whereas the intelligence needed to achieve the irrefutable answer could well be beyond the scope of the capacity of the human brain, which as all components of the human body has limitations. The scientific study of the physical aspects of the universe is understandable because we have the capacity to test and experiment according to our brains capacity of the physical of which we are a part being that we are made up of the sum of that which surrounds us, outwith that (which is the rub ) may well be conditions beyond our ken (comprehension )

@midnight...." nothing eliminates them etc." The big question is...what qualifies them , is your god so dismissive of the deliberate skewing of doctrinal teachings which has brought death and misery, family trauma, suicides and blatant hypocritical dogma which has time after time proved false!...do your research don't be lazy ! If you have truly studied this bunch of charlatans and think god is using them what kind of 'god' is it...imo you should seriously question your idea of god. Don't insult your intelligence with this watchtower cult scam...that would be my advice.

Since everything about the origins of the Watchtower magazine were proved wrong, what legitimacy can its inheritors claim?
by Half banana inthe original aim of ct russell in starting the watchtower magazine in 1879 was to announce to the world his pet idea that jesus had come to rule in the heavens five years earlier back in 1874. for the young entrepreneur this new magazine looked like a commercial runner and it was!.
most of us know how profoundly false the prophecy was but if you don't mind i'll give a brief overview for newbies:.
1874 was the failed adventist prediction year for the return of christ in the heavenly glory, which russell was now saying was the right year after all.

A building must stand on solid foundations to justify its purpose. The foundation for the watchtower, hence jws has long since crumbled even by their own admission. The subsequent years have given rise to false doctrine and predictions time and time again. To date they are constantly in a process of 'shoring up' their ever crumbling building. Those who cling on or newly associate are entitled to do so if they wish, but will always be aligning themselves to a structure which will never have a solid foundation. The precedents are there if they care to investigate. .....don't throw pearls before swine.
