  if your sex is only what you say it is, without any reference to biological reality, .

  your race can be only what you say it is, without any reference to biological reality.. .

  is this repudiation of science?

  galaxy andromeda flying towards the milcky way is a fact so why god did that ?

  i don't see the point, the galaxies will enter in collision in a very long time but i don't understand why a lovely god would do this it feels stupid.

  (or there is no god).

  Phone witnessing and the Year Book

  by Diogenesister in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  when the “year book” is published online next year, and the number of new baptisms is roughly the same as it always is, how are they going to deny that their new “converts” are nothing more than born-in kids of witnesses or already “captive” family and friends?.

  the “billions” of hours of service are at best pointless and ineffective and at worse often fabricated.. what say you?.

  Biahi said -
  

  The USPS has a program called “every door direct mail”. Or EDDM. Many businesses and some churches use this to get their message out. Pizza places, nail shops, and churches who are offering special services, for example, Easter services. If the KH used this, they could cover every door in town in no time at all. That is, if their message is really “important “ and “life saving”.

  That really nails it, all of the recorded preaching hours and letter writing is only a smoke screen to give a shifty business some veneer of a charity.

  The Cancel Culture Is Alive And Well

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  if you don’t support certain ideas or beliefs, you may find yourself on the losing end in business, money matters, and community.

  curt schilling, a former red sox player who is conservative today reported how his insurance company suddenly dropped him even though he was an excellent consumer with them because of his “ views”.

  he was marked by those in charge and evidently was told by the rep he knew that they didn’t like his political views.

  ...But imagine going to prison and being in a culture where you expected to submit to this kind of false religious doctrine. We know how bad WT is. This is WT on steroids.

  We all should be very worried about the rise of islam Anna http://www.citizenwarrior.com/2009/05/terrifying-brilliance-of-islam.html

  In Australia most office workers have been forced to work from home since March, this has been great for the worker as they do not have to do the slow grind in the peak hour traffic twice a day and also great for the trades people and service people always on the road as the traffic is like 20 years ago. As an added benifit to all I have noticed and increased instance of emails being answered by workers beyond normal working hours.

  A recent survey of workers forced to work from home found that a full 1/3 said they would not be going back to work in the city office... not they did not want to return, they would not return!

  I wonder if the borg enthusiam stats would be similar????

  New JW study book / method announced on JW Broadcast

  by Funky in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so did anyone catch the january jw broadcast?.

  it's the "spiritual content" of what would have been introduced in the october annual meeting, had the october annual meeting taken place.. morris, splane, and jackson introduce a new jw study publication: "live forever eternally - an interactive guide".. details were sparse, but apparently it is a 256 page book (when in actual printed form), primarily designed to be used in its electronic form, stuffed with links to videos.. it is designed to be "just one book" to be studied prior to baptism, where "all 60 questions that baptism candidates have to know" are found in just one place.. the purported reason is to make jw "bible" studies more "productive", i.e., lead to more baptisms.. splane brought out the governing body's "great concern" that 10 million+ "bible" studies are conducted by jws every year, but the number of baptisms has been stuck at 200,000 - 300,000 per year for decades.

  so the thinking is, this new book + a "new method of conducting studies" (again, no real detail, but apparently it involves more "discussion" and less "question and answer").. want to know my thoughts?
