Hi Apognophos
Yes! I'm horrible at spelling, grammar, and writing in general. Not that I expect you to go through that much trouble….
as part of my deconversion catharsis, i have been building a(nother) website to highlight some of the more ridiculous jw beliefs.
im a looong way from done, but i wanted some early feedback on one article: dinosaurs.

Hi OneEyedJoe
As far as I can tell, JWs are NOT traditional old-earth creationists - relative to reality, they are young earth creationists. I tried to adress this issue on another page: http://www.jwbeliefs.com/jehovahs-witnesses-believe-creative-days/
Of course, I'm also open to correction if my information/quotes are not correct... It is true that a lot of what they believe will hinge on this teaching.

Hi all,
As part of my deconversion catharsis, I have been building a(nother) website to highlight some of the more ridiculous JW beliefs. I’m a looong way from done, but I wanted some early feedback on one article: Dinosaurs. http://www.jwbeliefs.com/dinosaurs/
I would like to know if I have misrepresented any JW beliefs - that is not my intention. I’d also love to know if there are any good images or quotes that I have missed.
The site gets almost no hits, so I’m not doing this because I think it will make a difference. It’s just nice to get a few things off my chest! The truth of what JWs teach about ancient life and natural history always bothered me...
Cheers!
i have a family member that will not believe that the jws put a dinosaur in the front cover of thier bible.
i am looking for a copy that has that map inside front cover with the raptor.
if anyone has one they can sell let me know.
Besides the Bible and Paradise Lost book, are there any other odd dinosaur depictions in JW literature??? I would love to know!
people stay jehovah's witnesses for several reasons.
the foremost is because they are taught that they could cheat death and not have to die or even better yet not have to get old.
the second is they can see their dead relatives again , who have a direct pass to paradise, and that we must obey to get there to see them in the resurrection.
I posted some other absurd paradise images here:

has anyone watched the videos for children on jw.org?
i feel sick.. in one video a little girl dreams about paradise: the blind can see again, the deaf can hear again, and of course, she gets to hug a cute little panda cub.
not until the end of the video is her wheelchair revealed.
And a few more infuriating images:

has anyone here done any serious research on the pyramids of egypt and others???
it has been said that these objects were roughly made around 2500-3000 bce (the 3 at giza).
other people have stated they are much older.
You are unlikely to find reliable information outside peer reviewd scientific literature. Be careful.
You seem to dismiss the collective work of Egyptologists, Archeologists, Forensic Engineers, and Anthropologists as not "serious research". Why?

A reputable encyclopedea will probably give you a good idea of the scientific consensus.
probably a dumb question, but what is the proper way to write "...in jehovah's witness literature.
"...in jehovah's witness' literature.".
"...in the literature of jehovah's witnesses.".
Thanks for the help guys! Spelling/grammer has never been my thing...
