my oldest daughter once worked at a convenience store/gas station for a muslim gentleman.. he had two sons - the older one @ university, and the younger worked with my daughter.. well, my daughter said the younger was blackmailing the older because the older was in possession of a bible!.

she also said the young man confessed to her that he often times went to a soul food joint way out in the country and ordered pork chops.

she said he told her they tasted soooo good.. lol.. sylvia.

It really sucks that in this modern age people are still not allowed to read certain books. On another note the Muslim are a good source for information on what's wrong with the Bible.

Surprise Adam and the writer of Genesis.....

by James Mixon in

it's possible human were living in southern calif 130000 years ago.

yes young people were surfing at the beach, snow skiing down the mountains unaware that adam and eve believe they were the only ones on earth...lol.

There was a site in northern Mexico that was a dig site they had it dated to about 150,000 years ago as well. The lead archeologist career was destroyed for even mentioning the idea that humans lived that long ago in the Americans. They should reopen the site and compare information.

's will not and cannot question or discuss, is the org's dogma that a person's own death wipes out their sins!..

when active, i asked two c.o.

This is a teaching Fred Franz probably came up with. That guy really hated Jesus for some reason.

Hanging out with JWs is exhausting!

not long ago, there was a funeral for a sister i haven’t know very much, so i did not attend.

however, some old “friends” i know drove down to town to assist and i ended up spending some time with them.

quite honestly, i was happy to see them again.

I no longer have any friends in the cult but yeah it the same with my own family wife and kids. They still go to meeting and I don't. They have to watch what they say and will not bring up any JW or spiritual things. It is a bit crazy, it's also crazy that my wife's friends , some whom were mine can't go out and have a meal with me and my wife because I would be there and I'm evil being inactive and all.

Has China Already Become the Equal of the USA - superseding the Knorr/Franz March of World Powers?

by fulltimestudent in

i would personally say, this was going to happen, but not quite yet.

but then i noticed this recently published story in the south china morning post (a newspaper once owned by rupert murdoch, but now owned by jack ma, one of china's richest men).. quote:.

how china has become america’s equal, as showcased at a harvard forumauthor: robert delaneyon the campus of harvard business school this past weekend there was little doubt among corporate leaders and investors gathered for an annual conference that china had arrived as an equal to the united states.keynote speeches, panel discussions and a business pitch competition at the 20th annual harvard china forum convened under the theme “sharing the road ahead” in english.. and, i got to thinking about donald trump's reversal of all the things he said he was going to do to china in his campaign speeches, and the reality now that he acts as president of the usa.

I would have to say no. The USA still has the all mighty dollar, it's still the gold standard currency of the world. With that in place and the military which light years ahead of China there's not much hope for anyone to take the US place at the top.

In order for a new country to arise It would mean a country or set of countries would have to dislodge the US dollar from its perch and the currency used to buy oil and the whole banking industries use of the dollar including the World Bank and the IMF. These banks are the credit cards for most of the other countries in the world and thier slaves to them.

These countries would have to do all this with out the US having a clue and getting thier military involved. Sudam Hussein tried it but didn't realize what he was stepping into and we see what happened to him. Countries are eroding the US influence by making trade deals with one another and not including the US and its currency in the deal but it will take time. As these countries make these deals the US pushes back.

In the end it will be the US that will kill it self off much the way Rome did.

Could the WT teach, "kill gay people" and claim freedom of religion?

by Bad_Wolf in

could the wt publish articles about how gay people should be killed and if a friend or family member turns out to be gay, that they should kill them and if they don't they will die at armageddon, etc?

i always see the argument that wt can never be liable or lawsuit about shunning because, 'nobody is forced to shun'.

'shunning is a personal choice'.

Crazyguy

They probably could as long as know one actually went out and did it.

Circumcision....Perfect Adam....Uncircumcised....1st century Christians...circumcision ont required

by blondie in

jw

i know this has been discussed many times, but i was watching a news story about female genital mutilation (not female circumcision) and segued mentally into why the hassle about male babies having to be circumcised, christians especially.

even the wts flipflops on this...... if adam, the first perfect man, not under the jewish law code, was given a foreskin by god as an aspect of his physical perfection, why then do so many "christian" people have their boy babies circumcised?.

if a health issue....why did god create the perfect man, adam, with a foreskin?.

Crazyguy

Before I was awake I didn't circumcise my boys because as true Christians were no longer under that law covenant. Now that I'm awake I found that before Abraham existed if he even did the Egyptians were already preforming this act of male circumcision as seen on the wall of one of thier temples.

So the Abrahamic covenant was nothing special and didnt make his offspring unique. What it maybe showing is infact the connection of Abrahams god with that of maybe an Egyptian god.

u can speak against Christ but not the GB

by Damascus in

so i am in trouble for questioning the whole rats nest of deceit and lies.

in matthew 12 jesus says: whoever speaks a word against the son of man will be forgiven, but whoever speaks against the holy spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the one to come.

" the gb seems to replace 'holy spirit' with themselves.
