  Evidence of a10,000 y.o. massacre demonstrates that it is in our biology to be aggressive and lethal

  attention can be drawn to both the age of these skeletal remains and the conclusions that can be drawn.. .

  skeletons dating to 10,000 years ago, bearing marks of a violent death and possibly bondage, provides fresh evidence that prehistoric hunter-gatherers did not necessarily live in bonhomie.

  disturbingly, two of the 12 people found by lake turkana, kenya were not marked by signs of violence but seem to have died with their hands bound, a team of archaeologists reported in nature on wednesday.. we know prehistoric humans were armed to the teeth, but it's an open question against whom they wielded their stone knives and spears – animals, or each other.

  "If I wasn't born a JW, I would never have become one."

  by OneEyedJoe in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i've seen it mentioned by a few on the forum that at some point there was a realization that had they not been born a jw, they never would've converted no matter how many times the jws tried to study with them.

  this was my experience too, and i'm wondering how universal it is for those that were born-in but eventually left.

  i think i started having this thought (more specifically that if i were not born a jw, i would surely have become an atheist by now) in my late teens.

  No way in the hell would I had become a JW if it wasn't for the ex wife. She

  felt a cult would save our marriage, surprise it didn't work. We both were raised Baptist.

  What shocking stories did you ever hear about?

  as a pre-awakened ms, i heard of 2 stories that i found very shocking at the time.

  please keep in mind, i was following wt blindly at the time and was part of what i thought was the true religion.

  the first shocking story was when i attended a large meeting for elders and ministerial servants covering our circuit.

  An elderly sister (black) told me she and other black JW's were segregated from

  the White brother and sisters in the KH. She told me this in the 70's...

  Swearing on the bible

  by Lost and adrift in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  on the subject of truth.

  ..... i was always under the impression that one of the reasons jws couldn't do jury duty or go to court etc was that we were not allowed to swear on the bible.

  ..as in i swear to tell the truth the whole truth etc etc .

  1 Samuel 20;30 ...Saul basically called Jonathan "stupid son of a bitch". Some

  paraphrase translators do translate it "son of a bitch" or "son of a slut".

  Ten years from now they will be out of their minds.. Ten years from now there will be only

  one GB member . In the middle eastern countries they will bring back the killing of Christians

  in the arenas, only JW's this time. Better yet they will all move to upstate NY, a state of their own.

  Householder: I'am so happy you stopped by today, my neighbor has been under the

  weather lately and I know he is a JW. He can use a smile.

  JW: Oh really, whats his name?

  Householder: Smith.

  JW: Larry smith?

  Householder: yes, that's him.

  JW: Sorry we can't talk to him.

  Householder: why?

  JW; Lets have a Bible study and I will tell you why.

  Evidence of Human Activity in Northern Siberia 45,000 years ago.

  by fulltimestudent in

  1. social
  2. current

  this information makes the biblical dating of human origins a sad joke.

  quote: " when they dated the remains, the researchers got another surprise: the mammoth died 45,000 years ago.

  that means that humans lived in the arctic more than 10,000 years earlier than scientists believed, according to a new study.

  A friend (very religious) ask me , how do I come up with the figure that Adam was created

  6-7 thousand year ago? I told him from the Bible. He told me no one knows because records

  weren't kept 6 thousand years ago. I told him, please read your bible.

  We must remember WT changeable doctrines, 7x7=49, each thousand years could represent

  7 thousands years.
