  The Exodus confirmed..

  by Crazyguy in

  2. bible

  for those of you that don't research this stuff i will give a little back story.

  we all know about the moses exodus, but history and archeology didn't seem to confirm this event.

  the only exodus out of egypt ever recorded was that of a group of asiatic tribes that had taken over egypt for a bit over 100 years called the hyksos and the followers of the pharaoh akhenaten who perpetuated a monotheistic idea of worshiping only one deity the aten.

  So the Israelites did not cross the Red Sea, they crossed the reed sea to the north! What a difference one letter makes!

  had a conversation with my jw mother the other day.

  she has been baptized for over 50 years.

  i've been out for 30 years, but because both my mother and mother-in-law are jw's i keep up with all things jw.

  It's a d*mn shame how this organization treats the older ones and then pretends to be all about "taking care of the flock".

  Gold and silver global stockpiles

  by Formerbrother in

  2. scandals

  this started in the thread about what would be alternative to jw, somebody suggested the vatican is nearer the truth.. i suggested the vatican has over a million tons of gold as some claim, officially they only have, international business times.

  what we do know is that vatican bank, officially titled the institute for the works of religion, manages 5.9bn ($7.3bn, 4.64bn) of assets on behalf of its 17,400 customers.

  and it manages 700m of equity which it owns.

  did any of you guys disregard the wt recommendations and pursue a career.

  if you answer "yes": was your journey easy?

  are you happy with the end result?

  I received a college degree in my early twenties with virtually no support from my family. My only regret was not getting more education at that time.

  hi people,.

  i want as much data as possible on the effect of the internet on the time captured by the cult.. please answer the three following questions about yourself or about someone you know (for example, if your parents or grandparents were jw's and left).

  1) were you raised as a jw, or did you convert?.

  What is the org’s view on extraterrestrial life?

  by My Name is of No Consequence in

  i am sure that it has been discussed before.

  but just out of curiosity, what is the orgs view on extraterrestrial life?

  the org certainly agrees that the universe is infinitely large.

  What if scientists find bacteria on another planet or star? It may not be "intelligent" life as we know it, but it is still life. What would be said about that in the org?

  If they believed in aliens they'd be trying to send an apathy trolley to mars.

  Too funny!

  The org always seems to have an exit strategy in case they turn out to be wrong.

  @ JW_Rouge:

  Is life the same as intelligent life? I believe that you are correct that the org has not addressed the possibly of "unintelligent" life on other planets.
