is it more likely to be the men or women who leave first?

i was just pondering the other day, is it more likely that a man will leave a religion, or a woman?

is there a way to know if the men on the site outnumber the women or vice versa as to who found out ttat first and left.. im going to suggest men.

basically because men in general, do not like to be told what to do.

In every case it has been the man, 100%.. So is man more.....oh hell

I won't say it. LOL

why did man go from living 900 years to 90?

by sowhatnow in

i cant recall the scripture, where it says than only a few men will he live to be 80 years or so, can anyone recall that?.

so then im wondering, if it is a fact that men lived long years 900 in some cases, for what reason would god limit our lifespan if our time is so short compared to his?.

how on earth does man go from living 8 and 9 hundred years down to 80 to 100 ?.

Rev.9;16 the number of the army of horsemen was two hundred million,

I heard the number. OK I call file, two hundred million horsemen. Don't

you think we may have a little exaggeration on numbers here, maybe like

living over 900 years.

i reworded a variation of a common critique of atheists to my own liking.

no, i do not hate atheists, i love them!

they keep me from getting bored.

You need three ingredients to make a universe, mass, energy and space

you don't need a God for that. The Big bang you only needed two

ingredients for a universe, energy and space.

The point I was making, nothing created the Big Bang but energy and space.

Please don't ask where energy and space came from. LOL

The universe did NOT have a creation event, it always existed. The

Big Bang was always there and this started the universe.

Time, without it nothing must have always existed, it can not have a

beginning because either would create a moment in time. Without

time it would be meaningless to ask its existence and that of the universe.

When the universe was created it was simply there all the time, existing

in the same way as nothing, as it always has.

if i remember correctly, this is the lowest number of gb members the wt has had since the gb arrangement started.

Agnostic here, hell I don't no, "but one creates from nothing".

If you try to create from something you're just changing something.

So in order to create something you first have to be able to create

nothing. So the question, who created nothing.

What the hell did I say..

just a thought.... looking through the greatest man book, something just occurred to me which i can't recall has ever been highlighted (but please correct me).. i always thought it a bit strange that jehovah allowed the three pagan astrologers to find jesus especially as they were obviously guided to him by satan's star (remember they were led to herod first who wanted to kill the messiah).

what purpose did it serve?.

well, a few pages earlier in tgm book, we see mary presenting a dove as a sin offering at the temple - this was the cheapest offering that was acceptable which must have meant that they were pretty poor at the time.. shortly after the three wise men visited the family had to flee to egypt when herod started to kill all the young boys in an attempt to kill jesus.. what would they need to travel and live as exiles for a couple of years?.

I wonder did the 3 wise men joke after leaving. Man, that baby doesn't

look anything like Joseph and "virgin my arse"! I knew her in school.

Anybody see this?

i just saw a couple of news stories from israel.

apparently the jw's were attempting to hold some kind of convention there, and the the town ruled against the jw's, but another court sided with the jw's and they were allowed to have their event.

it turns out several hundred local orthodox jews turned out to protest this event, and it did turn violent at one point.
