  Second in the Medal Table - Well Done TeamGB

  by konceptual99 in

  2. physical

  can't believe it - gb is currently second in the medal table, with more golds and silvers combined than even china.

  given the size of the nation it's an incredible achievement and we have won in some sports where other countries typically dominate.

  i can't imagine we will stay in second but i am happy to enjoy the moment.. well done to the whole of team gb!.

  Why are the atheists on this site so hateful?

  by HopeEverLasting in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  all us creationists try to do is offer true evidence that the one and only god is out there watching and looking down on us.

  we present that certain scientists know the truth about god and that he is everything that we see from trees, life, weather, the air we breath, and even the most simple molecules.

  but of course you atheists reject it because it is your nature to not be humble and see god because you want to rule your own life.

  I've yet to read any "evidence" presented on here to make me conclude there is a god...whilst there is a plethora of evidence posted by users to back up evolution.

  THAT is why you think they are hateful, because they most likely get frustrated at all their evidence being ignored and none provided by creationists.

  anyone else also hold this view or understand it at least, or do you feel the need to argue that both can in no way coexist?.

  Is there anywhere on this thread where you explain why you believe such? Or is it just a "belief"?

  Well first off the reviews for No Mans Sky is very mixed...not the game it was hyped up to be!

  But anyway, glad this is getting more mainstream coverage...its shocking the lengths they have gone to fight this.

  Paranormal Warning

  by Cold Steel in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i've heard some weird stories coming from jws about the paranormal.

  i know about the warnings about items that come from unbelievers -- those don't interest me as much.

  what i am interested in are actual experiences in stories of the paranormal you've heard or experienced yourself.

  There are no paranormal activities in real life. Evidence suggests so. People's experiences are usually other things.

  For instance, low frequency sounds affect the brain in such a way that people think they see ghosts or some sort of paranormal activity.

  Whilst the brain thinks it is real..it is not.

  Therefore, any experiences in this thread are not paranormal activity but just people's brain thinking it is so.

  I just can't take any of this thread seriously...nobody who was still a dub would come on here whilst "still in mentally" and yet no-one who was "out mentally" would ever go to Bethel.

  Story doesn't stack up for me.

  Got the personal invite to the D.C

  by Phizzy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  a nice jw old boy knocked the door and asked me how i was, said they were giving out invites, i refrained from mocking him for the total waste of time such "work" is.. he mentioned that " we don't know when the end will come" , so i just said i was sure my new grandson would grow up, go to university, get a good job and his kids would do the same, by which time i shall be long gone.. "you are sure of that ?

  " asked the jw, "oh yes", i replied.. i know we cannot be sure of anything, except death and taxes, but there is loads of evidence that my scenario may well play out, there is no single shred of evidence for an "end to the system" as envisaged by jw's, their weird view coming from a totally discredited source, the bible and mainly its final book, what nonsense..

  I agree JW Armageddon is not coming anytime. But if Trump becomes president I wouldn't be so sure of the rest.
  In fact even if he doesn't become president I doubt the prospects of humans surviving the 21st century.
  Is that unusual?

  I can't see Trump winning...few of his own party saying today he is unfit for president...polls are close though.

  In my opinion there will not a be a supernatural end to the world given I conclude there is no god but as for a man-made end to the world? Who knows...I was speaking to some high up ranking Navakl chaps recently who said things are getting very interesting with Russia...

  Can JWs Use Corporal Punishment On Their Children?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  can a parent slap or use a "rod of discipline" on their kids?

  i know it's politically incorrect and perhaps illegal, but is it a personal decision based upon the scriptures or is it taboo these days?.

  Rank & file are seeing the money-grubbing

  spoke with a fellow apostate from my own area.

  she and i bailed out about the same time and kept in touch.. she used to do secular work with one of the local elders in his cleaning business until she got dfed.

  this same elder was one of the more profound dickheads on my reinstatement committee, before i turned around two years later and daed.. business required her to contact the elder on behalf of an old client.

  I would say the OP post is quite common...I see loads of dubs going through the mill...doing their little bit...a meeting here and there...a bit of ministry...but lots of living life with holidays etc...by far the majority of congregations have like a 25% elite core that are 100% in and do everything whilst the rest just mill along.

  The GB will need to do something in terms of doctrine change to spice things up otherwise they will lose more and quicker...and changing doctrine to suit the passage of time or to keep things urgent is the near definition of a cult...

  My still in wife is at the very beginning of waking up and its dawning on her what the GB and the WTS really are...a printing firm...

  Volunteer workers pushed to renounce to their social rights

  by sp74bb in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  surprisingly in spain, a large quantity of bethel volunteers (nice to words to say workers) have received their letter telling they are not anymore required.

  in this country, government obliged bethel to give social rights such as basic social security (doctors, etc..) to the volunteers as they understand that it is a business relationship.. all of them have been pushed to sign a letter stating they renounce to their work and then go outside bethel with not a single right (unemployment, etc...).

  it is really unfortunately but silly from bethel office to arrange it this way.

  More and more exposure to things like this can only help those on the fence wake up...the society are fighting a losing battle and they know it...
