  Are you in now? A bible study (their name) has to show willingness to believe without question anything said. Being here shows you have doubts

  Evolution News: Humanlike Footprints in Crete Dated to 6 Million Years Ago!

  i find it astonishing that humanlike feet could have existed that long ago.

  i wonder if some non-human upright ape might have had that kind of feet that long ago.

  see https://www.haaretz.com/archaeology/humanlike-footprints-in-crete-dated-to-6-million-years-muddle-archaeologists-1.10301706 and https://scitechdaily.com/oldest-footprints-of-pre-humans-identified-in-crete-six-million-years-old/ .

  Giant raccoon? I've made better imprints dropping my hamburger.

  I do hope the sand was dry.

  I follow stories on clovis points etc. And my conclusion is pre columbian people traveled, traded, had skilled trades. And were not stupid

  Question

  by Gorb in

  what is the probability that a religious organisation is used for money laundering?

  for example, large amounts of money are raised by the organization as a donation and then legally introduced into the financial system.

  is there any chance that jw.org is used for this kind of purpose?

  They specificallly say to donate to the general fund instead of a special relief fund so they then can use money as needed. The exception is a fund for a hall, roof or whatever,,,,then that may be resolutioned away at some later date.

  Tell them you post here. Problem solved.

  Attendance, hours reported, comments, and a bible study are the criteria. A bible study is the hardest to obtain.

  Family ties and being part of the club enter.

  I know of one case at least. Slap the person down and give absolutely no support to the wife. Not that there is training for dealing with mental illness or declining faculties.

  This is not non native speakers though. I will admit to be a bit of a grammar nazi.

  You can find pronunciation on computers now, so no reason to not check

  Alec Baldwin Shot a Woman Dead

  so alec baldwin shot a woman dead on set and seriously injured another man.. what do we put this down as?

  a tragic accident?

  maybe ... except that implies no one was to blame.. the more you find out, the more it seems that this was due to negligence and lack of attention to safety.
