...and the ship is sailing over the edge.. .
such is the state of the watch tower society..
rory-ks: "--I like the ship in the picture - a container ship, To me, it looks like a bulk carrier, and the cargo, gravel, coal, would shift forward, hastening the fall. Will there be a movement of members that will give wt the sinking feeling?
Ucantnome: "--i think to a photon it probably is ! Profound! at c one loses one dimension. becomes flat in vision.
gravity waves sound like a special kind of sound, so is this another lucky hit in the otherwise discredited bible?
gen i: 3,6,9,"said" like in acoustics?
note the subject area, and be objective.
Ultimate Axiom: "--I don't like gravity, it gets me down. You can not be a skier, snowboarder or sailplane pilot then, because getting you down also gives you the speed forward. gravity has hidden benefits. Could Einstein have imagined surfing a gravity wave?
I see we are spending Saturday morning profitably . next door is yours?
l have a problem with this.lf adam and eve didnt sin the earth would eventually have been full to the brim with perfect human beings.then what every man gets the chop or no more sex?then on the other hand we have the jw's sayingresurrected ones will not be allowed to marry in the earthly new system.. married survivors of armageddon will remain married.
single survivors of armageddon may or may not be allowed to marry.so it seems that people reborn into new system wont be able to procreate.
and married survivors will stay married so l assume that means they can still hanky panky and have babys thats a bit unfair..the earth can only accommodate a maximum number of humans then what for the married couples.

i don't believe it, but it is on jw broadcasting: how to make memorial bread.. it is just like the 24/kitchen broadcasting.. http://tv.jw.org/#en/video/vodministry/pub-jwbrd_201603_2_video.
(i never was a dub).. this is something which has intrigued me for a while.
i don't know whether it's dub-speak, or us-speak.. it's the use of the word 'ones' as in 'interested ones', 'worldly ones', 'disfellowshipped ones' and so on and so on.. in the 'normal world' we would probably use the word 'people'.. thoughts?.

a thought struck me...... the very generation (no pun intended) of people who the society is focussing so much attention on, that is the children, should not even be here!
(think caleb and sofia etc).
their parents, who are probably aged between 20 - 40 are the very generation too that should not be here if the societies strict guidance from the 70's and 80's was followed by their parents...ie to not have kids "because the end is soooooo close!".
It shows the selfishness of all believers in an earthly paradise, for the limited resources precludes unlimited opportunities for future generations, particularly if Billions are to be resurrected too. Conversely one can see the generosity of a possible creator to open life for so many (rather than few) interesting lives during the 9 billion years of possible inhabitable period of this planet.PS
wt teachings not only prevented the birth of new loved ones, but condemns (falsely) billions to an early death too.
so many prayers.. consuming.
the obligation.. when did you realize you were talking to yourself?.
tomorrow 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.
