  on this site are very capable people and much to learn.

  rejects from powerful religions, that contributed to mankinds advance, are good examples for us.

  lurkers, faders, apostate- DFs need better name.

  the propaganda ministry (joseph gs) of the wbtsinc.

  is good at picking derogatory names for the above categories.

  so are the atheists, which is fine.. but really, those in "crisis of conscience" need all the help they can get, and a dignifying uplifting name would be great!

  0) did God (the father) or its atheistic equivalent have a prehuman/preBigBang existence? and other TMELY questions.

  if you like to think of the big question and can imagine to remove one of the 3 similar space dimensions to put in time as a substitute, a picture should emerge that you can work with.

  1)working into the past from the big bang creation or random event, (like in "100 abb" or "-100 bb"} , as an atheist, was there a start- up vaccuum oscillation, the casimir effect gone viral,or similar random event , or.

  21) so, better keep moving!

  If there is a creator, will an expanding universe ever become bigger than he?

  by prologos in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the bible has expressions like: "--god walked in the garden at the breezy part of the day--" .

  but more realisticly, speaking in today's lingo:.

  if, as accepted by consensus, the universe was "smaller" in the past, expanding out of a zero size singularity, it was "smaller" than the "creator"* at that point in time.

  Since the wt is discredited, what is the pillar and support of truth now?

  by prologos in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  since the wt with its doctrines past and present is discredited, is there an entity that can be shown to be the latter- day "-----pillar and support of truth---" paul was writing about at i tim 3:15.?

  have the believers or non-theists or exjws an equivalent at all ?

  because humans like to huddle around the fire for the radiant heat.

  Jehovah's Sovereignty a feign for further wt claims?

  by prologos in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i would like your good minds to help me with the question of sovereignty.

  although the father is the "sovereign lord" what is the extent or reach of his sovereignty?.

  since the word is not in the bible just like "trimity" or organisation or gb, is it not merely an invented concept?

  are wt writers inept or trying to repel clear thinkers?

  by prologos in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  in the "what does the bible really teach" book, an attempt is made to illustrate the nature of satans challenge, as it explains suffering allowed to prove jehoahs' souvereignty.

  on page 110 is given the illustration of a bright kid stepping up to the blackboard to show the elderly teacher (probably head of the teacher union chapter) * a more elegant way to solve those equations.

  wt equates that situation to satans challenge.

  JW financial liabilities?

  by prologos in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  for reasons that are unimportant here, municipalties and other souveraign entities go bankrupt, touching the financial siruations of those beholen to them as muniscipal taxpayers with properties than can be morgaged after a bancruptcy judgement.

  you legal minds in different jurisdiction: can the fact that one is a cardcarrying jw in a congregation( actually they are holding all the cards) pun intendet] ever be construed to mean that you are liable for any financial liability of the congregation, its elders, the wtbs.inc?

  in our affluent area very ambitious 100% approved by vote are under way, selling off one good kingdom hall to build better later, with funding yet to come.
