Skin of My Teeth
by WhatshallIcallmyself inan evidence for divine origin that has often been used (at least to me) is where job describes "...escap[ing] with the skin of my teeth".
science is quoted as having discovered that teeth are covered in skin and therefore how would job have known something that modern science has only just discovered.
i was reminded of this at this weeks meeting when this verse was quoted but was surprised when a commenter said how it wasn't necessary to mention this in light of other "evidence" in the bible.

"It's the demons..."
by pale.emperor inone thing that really frustrates me inside is how quite a few jw's (especially my family) actually believe that demons like to inhabit second hand vases, or clothes etc.
my sister and mother are so bad with this that they wont even talk about it - because even talking about it "brings demons into your home".
so any attempt to show them that it's unscriptural is shut off with, sometimes them literally going "lalalalalalala im not listening".. i used to believe it myself (why wouldn't i?, i was told by my mother and father it was fact).. what i'd like to point out to anyone that would let me debunk it is this:.

Just an easiest way to make life more "understandable "
If something is good : its from God ...
If something is bad : its from the "demons" ...
Black and white ....Ying and Yang ...Gwen a Du ....
Some "adults" are like really young kids . they need "imaginary friends" to stay on their legs .
because sometimes real life is too hard for them .

I understand it fully , i am the same .
Sometimes .

Find a nice Kayak , a nice fishing place far away , nobody around . Go Alon
e .Take a really sharp knife and maybe a book from A Conan Doyle .
You will never see any "demons "
Maybe some fish !! And yourself on the water
