I had an elder and his pioneer wife stop by last night to talk to my wife, I was supposed to be gone longer I guess. So any way I just stade busy a pretty much ignored them. I just made eye contact with him so I waved and his wife finally asked how I was doing and I just said fine. So anyway I'm sure they expected me since they were friends to go over and talk and try to start up a conversation or something. I wasn't about to play thier game. I'm neither DA'd or Df'd but they all have shunned me unless force to say a greeting to save face.

Whose God are you worshipping??
by Crazyguy inin the early writings of the bible its mentioned that the israelites worshiped false gods, gods of the stars and other celestial bodies.
ezekiel even bloviates against this in his writings and king josiah is said to have abolish these practices.
jeremiah mentions that god would even destroy the city were sun worship was being practiced a place called bethshemesh in egypt.

Genesis as a Parable
by FusionTheism injesus always spoke to the crowds using parables.
in fact, the bible says jesus would never speak to the crowds without using parables.. a parable is a fictional story that is used to teach deep moral and spiritual truths.. the scriptures say:.
matthew 13:34-35 (niv):jesus spoke all these things to the crowd in parables; he did not say anything to them without using a parable.

most of the stories in the book of Genesis are myths from older cultures Sumerians etc. The Epic of Gilgamesh is and older story of the flood but it too was a copy of and even older story. The tower of Babel was also a Sumerian story. The God is this story is also the god that was apart of the earlier story of Adam. These are all older stories the Hebrew stole and used and changed for their purposes. The Exodus story maybe a retelling of the Hyksos expulsion from Egypt that happened much earlier then the so called Hebrew exodus. An early historian writing before the 1st century CE stated that these Hyksos after being expelled from Egypt settled in Jerusalem. -

More double speak, proverbs chapter 4 is all about how great wisdom is. Yet they are also correct, once I became educated I learned that the first God the Hebrews worshipped was a cannaanite God named El. They also stole stories like the Noah's flood story from older cultures involving many God's. They the Hebrews never worshiped one God in fact there's evidence they worshiped El, baal, Asherah, RA, Enki, Marduk and up in to the 5th century Ad Helios. Education has made me a non believer. -

Just how is JW org doing?
by Half banana ini started posting on the ex community about five years ago since two of my children have remained under the jw spell.
back then i had little tangible hope of seeing the downfall of the org.

Something big is going on at JW HQ, there has been to many changes and the money grab is aggressive. They may be on the brink but they have a ton of cash. At the same time thousands of churches close per year in the USA. Last week it came out that the city of Seattle as a population where 10% are atheists highest percentage of any city in the US. More and more people are becoming non religious even though they may believe in a god. The hand writing is on the wall, hopefully the Borg dies soon. -
