A baffling physics question
by FatFreek 2005 infor several weeks i've been treating myself to a hot chocolate milk (well, soymilk) before bedtime.
some 16 oz soymilk which i heat on high in our microwave oven.
this is just enough time where the liquid begins to bubble along the top edge.. i then take it out of the microwave and place it on my kitchen gram scale, stir it good enough to redistribute the heat, then reset the scale to zero grams.. next, i squeeze in the hershey's sytup, "special dark mildly sweet chocolate" (fat free) into the warmed soymilk till the scale reads some 30 grams.

Water need not boil to evaporate.
This not a physics problem per se as much as it is one of measurement.

Why are the individuals who make up the Governing Body so deluded
by UnshackleTheChains insurely these men must see what's going on.
if they can afford fancy pinky rings, they must have smart phones.
if they have smart phones, they must be inquisitive as to how they are perceived.

Something to think about:
We all spend a great deal of time contemplating the motivations and mental state of the leadership of this religion. Many of us really try to understand why they do what they do.
But remember, they don't return the favor. The have only a one-size-fits-all label for anyone that dares ask such questions about them: Apostate.

Marc & Cora on YouTube causing unnecessary divisions
by jambon1 inwhat is it with this pair?
why do they have to constantly have a bitch about guys like john cedars?
a very recent video of them shows them calling him a 'village idiot' and making other disparaging claims.

Enlightened discourse and debate frequently involves attacking what we believe to be flaws in the ARGUMENT, but it need not, and indeed should not, involve personal attacks on the PERSON.
The former is healthy and can lead to a better and deeper, more balanced understanding of the issues.
The latter always descends in to mindless tribalism.
Been there, done that

Jambon, it's what people do.
Has it occurred to you that your post criticising M&C is essentially in the same vein as what you don't like them doing to LE/JC?
Taking the moral high road is difficult and most definitely NOT something we were taught or encouraged to do when we were in the cult.
Old habits die hard. Take it from one who knows all too well.
Cheers!

Long article, but it explains a lot of things
by JeffT ini found this the other day, and read it last night.
i think it explains a lot of what is going on in both american politics and many religions around the world.

Blondie, I'm sure you meant to put the word "let" in scare quotes.
Please notice that I already have my beard on and it is going (and growing) strong.
A still active JW recently accused me of "disrespecting Jehovah" because I have facial hair.

God, the "Creator of the Universe," apparently has nothing better to do than care about the tightness of your clothes , the cut of your hair and the kind of socks you wear.
Maybe it's because solving the REAL PROBLEMS OF THE WORLD is just too hard ... no, that's not it.

All I see is the incessant need to control on the part of the people that write and publish this tripe.
