I remember that one of my class in undergrad, we were discussing the observation of the gravity wave, which suppose to happen for the first time ever. That was around 2006. I know it, because I still have a post on the internet from that year.

28Waves in Gravity detected, another lucky hit?
by prologos ingravity waves sound like a special kind of sound, so is this another lucky hit in the otherwise discredited bible?
gen i: 3,6,9,"said" like in acoustics?
note the subject area, and be objective.

What I remember, the gravity moves in waves were discovered years ago. I remember we had discussed when I did my undergrad on this specific topic that the gravity waves moves with the speed of light. This was ten years ago or so.
gravity is "just a theory"?
There are a lot of unknowns when it comes to gravity and much of the explanations are conducted by a various theory construct.

no, it would be a hell overtime. Still Earth will go through climate issues, tornadoes, earthquakes; they are a vital part of making this planet habitable.
Once you are confined into this space and time what you will do after you visit all the places in 10,000 years not to mention in 1 million?

After leaving what did you Major in?
by Luther bertrand ini am curious if my observations are correct.
i noticed alot of exjws end up majoring in the social sciences.
i am also interested in what educational choices people have made either while fading or while completely out.

I am actually looking for a school in the PhD program with Remote Sensing and GIS. I have talked to a couple of schools already, but the main issue will be funded for it. However, my biggest worries is to be able to secure jobs. I noticed that lately the STEM degrees have not made easier for people to get a job and there is a surplus of labor force at this moment. -

It is also important to see that half of the population in the USA does not bother to vote. The participation rate is between 48% to 52% and local election attracts even less people. Half of the population thinks that their votes does not matter and this will not change with the GOP or DEM candidate. The GOP is betting on apathy and expecting their demographic (WM > 50 with IQ 100) to vote enough. DEM think that they can buy younger votes, but in the overall system, it does not matter who will win election. -

Interesting article about the evidence of the Jewish Exodus
by cappytan inthe reality is that there is no evidence whatsoever that the jews were ever enslaved in egypt.
yes, there's the story contained within the bible itself, but that's not a remotely historically admissible source.
i'm talking about real proof; archeological evidence, state records and primary sources.

One thing, large population movements even in neolithic era can be easily to trace from archaeology. We know movement of ancient Greeks from Balkans, Sea People who ravished Levant, Scythians who raided Persian Empire, Goths who crossed Danube. Yet, we cannot recover any evidence of large movement of Jews from Egypt. We are not talking about tribal family, but according to OT up to 1 million people. For comparison, barbarian raid upon Western Roman Empire in 405 which pretty much destroyed Roman position in western Europe had 200,000 people. -

If I would have to do over again, I would go for undergrad in earth science with specialization on oil exploration or remote sensing, and go for postgrad in project management or MBA in that field.

I went to STEM, my undergrad is IT and computer programming, and my Masters is related to Earth Science/GIS/computer programming. I am thinking to go for PhD in GIS and remote sensing (have mind set up either in VT, GMU, University of Colorado, Maryland, or UT in Dallas) or go for another master that would be related to IT/CS.

The best laptop I ever owned, was Toshiba. My mom's husband managed to drop it from the table on the floor and cracking the motherboard. I replaced it with Samsung, and this was the worst laptop ever. On my second year, it caught on fire by the charger. While I backing up data regularly, I lost collection of JW files that I downloaded couple days earlier. I use also Cloud so, I have now my school projects stored there. One things I learned that paying $$$ for laptop is not that worth. -

Andrew, this is ex-JW forum, but you will run into JW who are still a member of the organization on this site. In general JWs do not have strong doctrine on divinity of Jesus. I grew up in WT as JW and we were never groomed to believe that Jesus was important for relationship with God.
As LG had said, JWs believe in one God, creator and originator, name Jehovah. They do not believe in Trinity or anything else divine except the father. Jesus is a first creation, but salvation is achieved by association with WT. Only small group of people will benefit from a personal association with Jesus, which is the 144,000 who are the spiritual bride who will live in heaven.
JW are not traditional Christians, so unlike mainstream Christianity that believes that "Jesus saves" it is the Watch Tower that saves, because it is like of Noah's Ark carrying faithful through Armageddon to salvation.
