I am surprised that a figure like M. Laliberte' or J.G. Trembley had to do anything to live normal lives after their exodus. that nulligies the stories about the green handshakes. There is also family money involved. but, the taller they are, the harder they fall. Thinking of Laurier Saumur too, who worked their guts out, no holds barred for WT Inc.,--sinking into poverty?

Would you have married your spouse if you weren't both JWs?
by 3rdgen inok, i've had some wine, but i'm curious.
objectively speaking, but for the religion, did you have enough in common with your spouse to have met and married as non believers?

Americans have to scuttle their bizarre many payers (executives) defunct healthcare system in favor of free healing for all, perhaps reigning in the rich, free uni for the deserving only, but also introduce a simple sales tax . , imho -

The initials stand for Michel Laliberte', he is gone, RIP, not resurrected as one of the anointed, a little ball of fire that was instrumental in building the unique MTL assembly hall. did not know about the disfellowshipping, the sales, but his former wife is still her dignified self at last count. -

Happy Pi Day
by dothemath intomorrow is march 14 (3.14), so its known as pi day, to honour the all-important constant.. incidentally, the bible has been criticized by mathematicians because the scriptures give a very poor value of pi.. the scripture is based on 1kings 7: 23 and reads as follows:.
"and he proceeded to make the molten sea ten cubits from its one brim to its other brim, circular all around; and its height was five cubits, and it took a line of thirty cubits to circle all around it".
now that shape is actually mathematically impossible to construct, because if the diameter is 10 cubits, the circumference would have to be 31.4159 cubits.

fisherman, there is even biblical evidence that the 30 cubit refers to the smaller ornament circle , situated below the bigger rim. verse 24 : --10 ornaments per cubit, in the 30 cubits.= 300 cast ornaments. below the (bigger) rim. It was the smaller ornament circle that was measured. -

smiddy :what an amazing site. be amazed again: how tall are you? be even more amazed by solving the 16 meter added to 40 million meters longer rope question above. suggestion, start with a 1 meter diameter circle and work your way up to the ~18 000 000 meter of the earth diameter. prediction: by adding 16 meters to the size of the "outside" of all the universe, it will have expanded out by 2,5 meters. figure on pi. -

"The diameter is 10 cubits ,the circumference would have to be 31.4159 cubits (circumference =pi x diameter )" ?
Smiddy, please read my post above. It can not be the same circle that is measured, the diameter across of the vessel, is rim to rim, is bigger than the lower measurement of the container just below it, like the rim on a cup.
Thank you Fisherman, for the illustration it is impossible to stretch a measuring line (scotch tape was not invented yet) along that thin edge at the top, 31. 4--- long, but easy above the ring of pomegranates, to keep it from slipping down.

Here is a pi question: if you stretched an ideal rope around an ideal even surface path on the earth, and then added 16 meters to the 40 Million meters of the rope, lifted it evenly everywhere, could a mouse get under it? or who? -

If they used a measuring line, it would be impossible to t stretch it along the the cusp of the lily shaped (cross section) of the rim. That line must have stretched at a narrower part, lower. The line would have easily stretched across the open top, the diameter. I0 and 30 are not a measure of the same circle, but the smaller lower vessel circumference and the wider rim. The bible is often wrong, but logically explained on that one. look under the rim to be a winner eh?
