  Did Jeruselm fall in 587 or 586 BCE?

  by Doug Mason in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i came across this article written in 2004 by an evangelical.. “when did jerusalem fall?”, rodger young, journal of the evangelical society [jets], 47/1 (march 2004), 21-38.. http://www.rcyoung.org/articles/jerusalem.pdf .

  these are the conclusions of the 18-page analysis.

  (1) jerusalem fell in the fourth month (tammuz) of 587 bc.

  Methinks you are dabbling in gobbledygook.

  scholar ...

  OK, OK, I've been caught. The hanging down parts have receded.

  Proceed my friend, proceed.

  Methinks you are dabbling in numerology.

  scholar ...

  Methinks, in mathematical terms, I am dabbling into a subject in which the square root of stupidity multiplied by the second derivative of ignorance cubed equals W, where W equals a waste of time.

  I can post my theorem and applicable charts upon request if needed. On an XY chart, I would have ignorance as the Y axis and stupidity as the X axis and observe the curve and the rate of change over a stated period of time.

  I could do it with colors in an Excel graph.

  Just my thoughts.

  We really need to understand the numeric relationships herein presented. If we add the cardinal numerals of 587 together (5+8+7) we arrive at 20. However, if we add the cardinal numerals of 586 (5+8+6) we arrive at 19, a prime number which cannot be created by multiplying two natural numbers together.

  This is the same scenario presented when we look at the year 607 (6+0+7) and again arrive at a prime number, 13, which also cannot be created by multiplying two natural numbers together.

  The unique aspect of 607 is that it contains a zero, which has been problematic due to the misunderstanding by many researchers since there is no zero year.

  I can provide reference citations in APA 6th edition format if needed to support the analysis.

  What was your favorite video game?

  by LoveUniHateExams in

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  i've never been that big on video/computer games but i used to have a ps2 and my absolute fav game was star wars battlefront ii, released by pandemic in 2005.. you could choose to play as three different classes of soldier and fight for the rebels, the imperials, the republic or the battle droids.

  as you played and gained points by killing the enemy, you could unlock a fourth and fifth class of soldier.

  you could also play as a hero or villain - such as darth vader, luke skywalker, princess leia, etc.. there was something absolutely awesome playing as darth vader and cutting down or force-choking rebel soldiers on the tantive iv.. .

  fulano ...

  That is really great. When the song is announced, have the sister walk around the stage in a bikini holding up the song number.

  Wow, great idea!

  All young sisters should wear bikinis and high heels when baptised..

  fulano ...

  And wear a sheer bikini, shake the water off, and ask to be re-baptized several times.

  ... we had missed a lot of meetings lately. I told him that he had been misinformed -- we hadn't missed any of them.

  Desirous of Change ...

  That is priceless.

  Do the Witnesses still allow women to preach in men's prisons?

  by JimmyYoung in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i knew of several women who would preach at the local correctional facility.

  some would do the fall in love and get married to a new convert who had a long prison sentence.

  if the witnesses had half a brain they would stop this before it ever got started.

  If women go in and show a little leg, there will be many more opportunities for bible studies.

  Canadians and Europeans, what do you think of your national health care ?

  by RubaDub in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  we have been in a battle over health care for so long here in the us regarding public, private, gov't subsidized, obama care, medicare for all, and just about every permutation of the above.. we hear the horror stories here that people wait 20 years for a check-up (ok, bit of an exaggeration), but you get the point.

  one side tells us that canadians flock across the border when they are sick and need to see a doctor.

  the other side says that is simply not the case.. so tell us, if you live under one of the government systems would you replace it?

  People who get a stupid-sticker always go to the back of the line

  Simon ...

  That is funny. Some with the stupid sticker would not be smart enough to know they had the sticker!

  We would need a ton of those stickers here in the US for people with no health insurance who line up in the public hospital emergency rooms when their kid sneezes or coughs. Then we (taxpayers) end up paying the $500 or so emergency room visit.
