did they hope that everybody who read the1969 awake as a kid is too senile to remember?.

That might be a good approach for the current GB if they want to make doctrinal changes. Hey, the guy who wrote this stuff is dead. Check out what the still-living GB wants you to believe!
It might sound silly, but is it really any worse than failed end-times predictions and overlapping generations? At some point, you've crossed into parody, and that's a lot more fun than taking any of it too seriously.
uh oh, looks like the mega thread gave up the ghost, so while i investigate / fix it just continue the discussion here .... it's been a long 9 years lloyd evans / john cedars.
Or brag, perhaps.
richard dawkins revealed that he celebrates christmas on radio four's today programme.. here is is quoted as saying: .
'i am perfectly happy on christmas day to say merry christmas to everybody,' dawkins said.
'i might sing christmas carols - once i was privileged to be invited to kings college, cambridge, for their christmas carols and loved it.
SeaBreeze: If you really want to promote natural materialism, all you have to do is come up with plausible explanations for the facts surrounding the resurrection of Jesus.
Sometimes I wonder if you're just having us on. The 'facts' in that article are all backed only by Bible verses. Which means that none of their claimed facts are corroborated at all. In other words, they're claims, not facts. Do the people writing these articles understand what the word means? I'm not quite sure if they do and are simply trying to decieve people, or if they're so determined to believe in something that they don't realize that they're making things up? Do they understand that when they set the bar so low, they also legitimize the claims made by other religions, including those that have been long abandoned by humanity?
"we're living in the final part of the last days, undoubtedly the final part of the final part of the last days, shortly before the last day of the last days!!!".
how are they going to phrase this in ten years time......
They could always recycle the oldies: "If you are a young person, you must face the fact that you will never grow old in this system of things." "Millions now living will never die." And so on.
the latest.

there is no question: the leaked data shows the vaccines have killed over 13 million people worldwide.
Just a reminder that things are not either/or: my distrust of COVID vaccines does not mean that I believe every nutcase and idiot with a YouTube channel who thinks that the lizard people are trying to wipe out humanity with a flu shot, nor do I trust the gullible dupes who hang on their every word. Convenient skepticism is not skepticism.
so for those amongst us who celebrate the season .
merry christmas everyone.

Don't hold it in, Diogenesister! Let us know how you really feel!
And Merry Christmas, everyone.

Yes, he has had a rough two years now. I feel bad for him, the way Kim dragged him to Thailand and threw him at those sex workers, that wasn't very nice. But at least she made sure to verify that they were 20 or older, so she's not entirely evil.
So, I hope you are happy with yourself, Kim.
And also, happy holidays!

He also works hard to scrub the YT comments on his videos. It's a relatively minor thing, but it can enforce the sense of a tight-knit community sheltering against its enemies.
Speaking of relatively minor things, I'm not so sure the Croatian police will make much of an issue of Evans not being home or having the wrong home address for his legal correspondence. That is probably the sort of thing that can be ironed out quickly and painlessly most of the time. If the courts in Croatia are that manic, I don't think they'd be able to get anything done, spending all of their time tracking down deadbeats both real and imaginary.
And I am sure that they will be sensitive to his concerns over his mental health.
decided i’m going to go out with a bang.
just posted a merry christmas meme on my watsapp status.
in portuguese but it’s very clear what it means with the baubles etc…... i will keep you posted on people’s reactions.
They may not know how to react. Or as slimboyfat said, they have quietly decided to avoid you from now on. It's not the worst way to do it, as it avoids any unpleasant confrontations, at least online.

Yep. Keep it short and to the point, so that you don't have to waste time being condescended to. If you're in a position to walk away, it's a lot better IMO. You get to start working on the life you want to live and not the one you are ordered to live.
And you can always remind them- they are the ones who are turning away from you. You have no restrictions on talking to them or having them in your life. They are the ones following the order to avoid you.
