  Evolutionists Who Are Against Darwinism

  by Perry in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  this is a nice list of evolutionary scientists and their quotes regarding the impossibility of naturalism or materialism being able to account for life as it is observed :.

  evolutionists against darwinism.

  most, while sympathetic and respectful of their more committed colleagues, are disparaged as morons for not carrying the materialism banner as a religion, as a matter of faith.

  Vinman said: Love this commentary!! Yes, New Atheism equals new religion. Like I said before, their are two sides to every story. The one thing I learned in my 9 month exit from the Borg is that as soon as I read something that seemed reasonable and the person is trying to convince me of the truthfulness of his words, I would suddenly find many articles counteracting his arguments. One minute I'm being swept away into atheism, the next minute I'm totally engrossed in a scholarly discussion of how unique the Bible is from any religious book on all levels.

  I concur with you statement, what I don't like about people like Perry is the fact they try to push their worldvieww onto others. The decision to believe in a God or decide you need more proof, must be made by you and you alone. Take both sides of the argument and make a decision. Don't force others!

  You like to get into it Perry this is another attempt from your part to recruit people and follow your version of the messiah. What you fail to see is that evolution is not the answer to the origin of life itself, but a process that changes throughout time, it has no guidance nor it cares for the results. Your designer is suppose to have a purpose and a plan... well the results in human history proves this designer to be guilty of negligence and is the most sadistic, egomaniacal entity alive.

  an older man and wife - ray and mary - got chatting to me today.

  they were tourists admiring local wildlife.

  i gave them a few tips on where to go to see some interesting things and it wasn't long before they were telling me about how awful the world is "nowadays" and paradise yadda yadda.

  Bravo Cofty! I wish my wife could bump into you... I actually used your questions with her and she flat out said how twisted and wrong the 2 witness rule is. She also stated the Mr. GJ did not answer the questions Stuart asked but then... she end by saying "this is still the truth"

  I also want to thank you for giving me the courage to face my doubts and research the deep things that science can now offer us.

  I was asked if I knew of any Jdubs within my congregation that could help out counting the money for this year’s Regional Convention, IMITATE CHRIST. So I gave a few names and included my wife, I was hoping for her to wake up and see how the org is all about the money in the back room. Do you think it woke her up a bit? Yeah right! It actually had the reverse effect and now she’s all in.

  On a side note, I spoke to her about the Royal Commission in Australia and to my surprise she was able to articulate all the wrong things about the two witness rule, the mishandling of child abuse and how poorly GJ answered when questioned. But she then added, “this is still the truth”

  Oh my! How much more can this woman take?

  I’ve been awake for 2 years and I’m planning my exit carefully and building my network of people outside the borg, trying to build a business and become independent from this friend’s club (A.K.A God’s Orginazation)

  I just hope my wife can start to wake up, I don’t know how much longer I can stomach the lies, hypocrisy and control this organization holds over its members.

  The elders of the 1980s are now in their 60s and 70s

  by truthseeker in

  having just come back from the uk and spoke with some witnesses to find out how my old congregation is doing, i realized i am now the age that my elders were when i was a kid.

  and i wonder what the elders who are now in their 60s and 70s are thinking when they look in the mirror and an old face looks back at them.

  many of the elders in my old hall are now retired.

  My dad is 65 and collecting social security, although he thinks the end is near and the big A can hit any minute now. I'm happy to know that he worked hard for his money, paid off his house, owns a business and has a solid health. You see, although my dad is a hardcore Jdub and believes in 1914... He always understood that no man can say when the end will actually come. The down side to this scenario, is that my parents will not give up the elder status and seniority they enjoy within the org.

  What were you favorite book in the organization? I know what you're thinking...LOL!

  what were *your favorite *books in the organization?.

  out of all of those books, i liked "mankind's search for god.

  " however, it appears to me that this book is incredibly obscure and no one recalls studying it during the old book study format.

  Are there any ex-missionaries here??

  by fulano in

  2. experiences

  i have been a missionary in the dominican republic for almost 10 years and i was wondering if there were any ex-missionaries on this forum.. i am back in my country now for 3 years and totally inactive.. what i noticed in those missionary-years was the lack of spiritual interest among the missionaries.. discussions were about rooms, cars and greater responsibilities, the bad territory.

  and the local c.o.s and d.os.. was this only in the dr or are there other experiences??.

  ere other experiences?

  Just found this thread Fulano, if you read this. Do you know if Pete Paschal is still around and doing well? When I was 12 he stayed many times at my house while he was visiting the cong. He was a sweet person and I have good memories of him and his wife. Actually, his wife could cook some good spaghettis.

  Won't get fooled again ...Moon Landing.

  so i was fooled by the witnesses.

  what can i learn from that?

  not to accept things at face value but to seek out opinion and different view points.. hence my question " do you believe man landed on the moon?.

  Wow! I can't believe this thread is still alive

  I might be suspicious of the Nasa and people in authority, but when you dig deep into this subject, you'll find more proof on Nasa side than otherwise. So I digress...

  Thanks Viviane for pointing me in the right direction
