yes the sun revolves around the earth....it moves from east to west.. this is why galileo a 15th century noted inventor, astronomer and mathmetical genius was excumminicated by the catholic church.
the scriptures state that joshua commanded the sun to stand still!
if the sun doesn't revolve around the earth then this command would be really stupid!.
Yip, I knew it - we just ran into that great big immovable wall that defeats all human logic - FAITH.

That's interesting, dear!

diamond's thread inspired this idea... at least, this is how i wish my last talk had gone.. next on the school is brother hmmm.
his talk is based on the song of solomon, and his theme is: "be steadfast and faithful, like the shulamite maiden.. "throughout history, babylon the great, the world empire of false religion, has fornicated with the scarlet-colored wild beast.
they have traded support for the league of nations--and it's successor the united nations--for political clout and expediency in furthering their selfish goals.
Shit! I can just picture that happening in my ex-KH. Good Lord and all that.
The thing is, initially all attending would be shocked for a few minutes, then their WT programming would kick in and they would just forget about it, the same way an alcoholic forgets the worst bits of his binges because he simply doesn't want to remember.
And nobody would repeat what you had said anyway, so this is a rather pointless gesture.

OK, this is just a giant load of hogwash - I'd never even really paid attention to that section of the Bible (reading through the whole thing doesn't usually leave you much time to dwell on individual bits!)
For starters, it is now COMMON KNOWLEDGE (even little kids know this) that the Earth revolves around the Sun. Anyone who wants to flame me about this statement is welcome, come on, my asbestos underwear is ready!
The problem here is that human perception was very limited back in the days of Joshua, therefore the logic of the time dictated that the Sun revolved around the Earth. I bet most people on this board wouldn't have considered anything otherwise if they had been living in that time period, so the words in Joshua make perfect sense - to someone living with a limited knowledge of astronomy.
Anyway, let's get to the point. To stop either the Sun or the Earth, the amount of energy you would need to expend would be incredible. But let's say that God has infinite amounts of kinetic energy at his command, so that's not a problem for him. Right.
Let's start with stopping the Earth rotating (an easier solution for God). As soon as you try this little trick, you will first of all disturb the orbit of the Moon (the Earth's oceans are so huge that they have a significant influence on the Moon's orbit). What will happen then is unpredictable, because we don't currently have enough computing power to simulate enough water to decide what would happen to the Moon in such a situation. Suffice to say, if the Earth even stood still for one day, there would be a significant Lunar orbit deviation, resulting in all ancient calenders and forth becoming completely screwed up, WHICH THEY ARE NOT. They agree with ours. Conclusion - the Earth never stopped moving. Simple logic here, folks.
Secondly, if you tried to stop the Sun rotating around the Earth (ludicrous notion, but let's finish this off properly), where exactly would it go? Hmmm? What would happen to the inconcievably large amount of kinetic energy released in the process? Oh sure, God would handle that. But how would he handle the fact that every single weather system on Earth would be fucked up for centuries, possibly starting another Ice Age, if the foregoing events occurred?
I think a reasonable conclusion would be that some other object or device occupied the sky for a long period of time, possibly leading to the interpretion in Joshua.
Comments are welcome!

*** w80 10/15 31 questions from readers ***.
as indicated by an article on page 56 of u.s. news & world report of january 14, 1980, if you assume that 10 is the age at which an event creates a lasting impression on a persons memory, then there are today more than 13 million americans who have a recollection of world war i. and if the wicked system of this world survived until the turn of the century, which is highly improbable in view of world trends and the fulfillment of bible prophecy, there would still be survivors of the world war i generation.
however, the fact that their number is dwindling is one more indication that the conclusion of the system of things is moving fast toward its end.. the above is taken from a 1980 watchtower which said it would be highly improbable that we would see the turn of the century.. is it just me or are we all still here in 2002!!!!
LOL @ NowFree!! Heeeheee...
This just takes the cake, I'm sorry, it's such an obvious mistake...sigh...the WTBTS are in the wrong here, and if you can't see that you must be blind.

this is rather embarrassing to say, but i have a problem.
the three times i have had sex i have noticed that i can't get aroused by normal penetration.
only oral sex will do it.
Butalbee: Of course I do! Keeps me going for hours & hours...I swear. I used to have an ivory one, but it was too small, now I just have a hard (hehe) rubber one. See, once the blood gets in there, it'll stay there for ages, even if you're not horny anymore. Women appreciate a man who can keep an erection for several hours, believe me!

just learned that a group of jws hacked my email over a considerable period of time, hoping to intercept "incriminating" information in an attempt to disfellowship me!.
they printed up the emails and passed them out to other elders to "examine".
they were certainly very, very disappointed to not find anything they could "use".. the only outgoing emails from me they obtained were those attached to incoming mail as a result of some friends hitting "respond" when they wrote back to me.. the person who got into my email account is a ministerial servant who had previously worked on my business web site and therefore had my password.. he would download my email onto his computer, miles away, and then put everything back as "unread" so nothing would be "missing", when i accessed email from my computer.
Why didn't you use some form of encryption? That's what I want to know. The moment I start emailing sensitive information I use at least 128 bit encryption, if not higher.
Also beware of keyboard scanners, they can detect what you're typing, so all your security is *fucked* if there's someone sitting outside your house in a van listening to the radio waves emitted by your keyboard.
The CARNIVORE thing surprised me, tho!

Two words: Cock Ring.
Never fails.
But please, get the right size...otherwise you will be in a world of hurt and clamped blood vessels.
Probably you are just nervous or something. Putting on a Batman suit should make you feel a bit better :)
