Could you ever really relax in a self-driving car?

by Simon in

i love science and technology and we are living in a golden age right now.

the world has changed in so many incredible ways just in the time i've been alive.. my first car was a vauxhall viva.

it was brilliant because it was my first car and represented freedom.

One of my brothers waited years before he purchased a Microwave,

he was waiting to see the reports on deaths of microwave users.

How much sediment would have been moved in Noah's flood?

by Zoos in

i flew over this crate yesterday on my return home from las vegas.. .

they say this crater was created by an asteroid about 50,000 years ago.

then about 6000 years ago, presumably, god wiped out all life on earth with a global flood.. how much sediment would have been moved around during that flood.

James Mixon

We typically expect a rainfall of only six inches per hour from a category Five

hurricane, to flood the earth in 40 days would require a rain fall six inches per

minute. If it came from below what about the noxious gases, such as sulfuric

acid, that would make their way into the atmosphere and cause the earth to

become uninhabitable.The heat generated by the impact of the rain drops on

the flood surface would have been more than sufficient to boil the water and

prevent it from rising.

What are Some of your best JW Questions they can't answer?

by 1tMakesNoSence in

i made a thread on reddit regarding questions jw's can't answer.

was wondering what you guys can add to it..

James Mixon

Why did it take 40 years to travel less then 400 miles to enter the

promise land. Most JW's don't realize how far they had to travel.

Should I Shun My Dog?

by snugglebunny in

some background:josie the miniature schnauzer is now 12 years old, so she's old enough to know the difference between right and wrong.

however, she insists on peeing in the middle of my beautifully tended lawn, which, as a consequence, is now covered in brown patches.

i've remonstrated with her a number of times and each time she purports to show a diplay of repentance, that is, she slinks away on her belly with her ears flattened down tightly to her head.

Deu.23:18 The hire of a whore or the price of a dog both

are a abomination to God. That's your problem.

i mean pretty much all parents lie to their children at some point about something and usually it was to protect them or just wasn't something important and it normally doesn't affect the relationship between them and their child.

but how does a person reconcile and recover their appreciation for their parents after finding out almost everything they taught them was an evil lie?

i don't mean going back to the same relationship as i know that is gone, especially if the parents are still deceived.

James Mixon

How do you correct the lie? That's the problem, now when I tell my JW kids

it was all a lie, trust me a big fat lie, they tell me I'm lying just like

my father, Satan. Sometimes it's very difficult to correct a lie.

Be careful your dog may be of the Anointed, you can't be a repeating offender

if you are living by your own rules. Have a long talk with the little fellow and

find out if he have some Apostate thinking, if so you are in deep trouble, you

must show him the door.

Do You Remember The Days When The Society Would Say Everything Pictured Something About Them?😇

by minimus in

jw
friends

when you look at the society's literature, it is pretty comical to see how important they believed they were.

it seems to be not as bad under the new regime but they certainly believe they are a special people.

lol

Remember this one "We are a theatrical spectacle on the stage of

mankind". Oh really, what stage and who have any idea what the hell

this grand show is about.

To My Generation: Jehovah's Witnesses of the Vietnam War Era

by Hold Me-Thrill Me in

jw
friends

to my generation: jehovah's witnesses of the vietnam war era .

if you were a young brother in the late 60's you then remember the burden of the draft and the prospect of going to jail for refusing on religious grounds to be called up.

in those days we were taught that to do community service was conscientiously the same as joining the military and so we were told to refuse such exemptions.

James Mixon

JeffT: Yes many of my friends avoided the service, moved to Canada, wet on themselves,

one guy performed self-gratification at the induction center, a lot

of crazy stuff.I went and served of course I wasn't a JW. Today I'm glad I served.

So the JW weren't the only ones that tried getting out the service.

How do you tell when the Governing Body is lying?

by Esse quam videri in

James Mixon

When someone lies to you it is because they don't respect you enough

to be honest and they think you are to stupid to know the difference.

How to Resist Demon Attacks - Caution: Scary Stuff!

by snugglebunny in

wt.

12-15-66: investigating house and household objectsone under demon attack should calmly, not in hysteria, investigate his house and household articles.

in some few cases the house may be the cause of trouble and the best thing to do is move out.

James Mixon

Demons only attack those who are fighting the fine fight of the faith,

so we don't have to worry about demon attacks. We are not worth

the effort, but 8 million JW's are constantly under attack, in their

beds,from toys, movies, food, people, books, you name it they are

under attack. And you wonder why they are so panic stricken.

Hell I would be a nervous wreck also if I still believe that BS.
