  jwfacts or jwinterpretations?

  by slimboyfat in

  jwfacts is a great website, but in view of the fact that "there are no facts, only interpretations", as nietzsche said, should the website be renamed jwinterpretations instead?

  arguing with those who reject scientific evidence can be like arguing about football; just as angry and passionate, but the goalposts keep moving, and one team doesn't exist.. read more here....

  Here's my final gift to you. This is what lies ahead. They might appear in our lifetime, they might not, but they will come. It's a promise. Those that will experience them will only have two choices before them. May each and everyone make right choice. If it doesn't happen, the joke's on me, but if it does happen, the joke's on all of you that feel the urge to ridicule:
  

  3 I will empower my two witnesses, and they will prophesy for 1,260 days, dressed in sackcloth."

  4 These are the two olive trees and the two lampstands that stand before the Lord of the earth.

  5 If anyone wants to harm them, fire comes from their mouths and consumes their enemies; if anyone wants to harm them, he must be killed in this way.

  6 These men have the power to close the sky so that it does not rain during the days of their prophecy. They also have power over the waters to turn them into blood, and to strike the earth with any plague whenever they want.

  18 The nations were angry, but Your wrath has come. The time has come for the dead to be judged, and to give the reward to Your servants the prophets, to the saints, and to those who fear Your name, both small and great, and the time has come to destroy those who destroy the earth. (Rev. 11:3-6, 18 CSBO

  I am a fan of jokes, this is a classic, satire at its finest. Jokes on you, jokes on me, we are all winners with jokes like this.

  If you have any more of these zingers, don't hold back on us.

  "Scientists need microscopes to view bacteria, meaning bacteria are created with microscopes."
  

  Thanks for the best quote so far.

  Not too my son...

  will i say " orlando, your hair is too long, and needs to be cut short" and never will i say " orlando, invites to birthday parties can't be accepted".

  and i will buy my son books he wants to read, books that bring him happiness, and that he understands.

  and by so doing, i hope he will acquire happy memories of his childhood, so that the sensitive and delicate, in him will be allowed to grow.

  I think having children fast tracked my learning ttatt.

  I didn't enjoy my JW upbringing, deep down resenting the religion as it seemed an endless list of RULES and a constant constraint on fun....... and now, I was going to do this to my kids?? Deep down I hated being a JW, but stuck it out. Having children of my own and forcing it on them was another matter, I couldn't do it.

  I've heard others say similar, that starting a family was the begining of thier waking up. This would more likely be the case when we experience a negative JW upbringing I'm guessing.

  Yes, I know, it occurred by accident many millions of years ago. The process kept on improving itself, migrating from one-celled organisms to multi-celled organisms.

  I am fairly certain you are making an error with this logical leap.

  Scientist needs to decipher and isolate DNA and gene sequences with algorithms, meaning DNA was constructed by means of algorithms.

  George Wald does a terrible job of stimulating any thought with that hopeless summary. He actually done himself a massive disservice by speaking that dribble, at least to me. Even a stupid person can benefit from keeping his mouth shut sometimes... this was one of those times from old George.

  couples therapy

  i have often wished i knew better words to give here when i see couples 'bleeding'.

  1. avoid letting the children take over your lives.

  although you need to love and care for your children in the very best ways that you can, it’s also important that they don’t dominate your entire relationship.. children are an important part of your relationship.

  This is good, but a few hours to late. I have already taken my relationship advice from the Woman's Purpose thread.

  your qualifications are way above mine so i'd love to hear more about the specifics of what you have researched and how that supports the existence of a deity.

  k99, i am not really convinced that you're interested in my conclusions.

  in nature amino acids formed to then form dna.

  I conclude we were all farted into existence by a giant alien anus, and the entire universe in which we now live is just a giant gassy expulsion.

  Unlike KateWild, I have watched nearly every episode of Scooby-Doo, so my conclusions are pretty solid.
