Why act in so much of frustration?!
Declaring the glories of creation and quoting the Bible are NOT the exclusive feature of any organization.
It is PURELY human, is the duty of any son to His Heavenly Father!

There are many man-made mysteries the scientists can simply puzzle over!

here are some man-made mysteries (forget about god-made codes), which the scientists can simply puzzle over.. 1) the still un-deciphered harappan script.. 2) the illustrated voynich manuscript written in a completely unknown script.

When Perry posted: “Who made the code?” Many responded in nervousness and frustration. Here are some man-made mysteries (forget about God-made codes), which the scientists can simply puzzle over.
1) The still un-deciphered Harappan script.
2) The illustrated Voynich manuscript written in a completely unknown script. The plant species that it illustrates do not match any known species either. Is it a cipher-text or could it even be a handbook of alien alchemists? No one knows: although it has been carbon-dated to the 15th century, the codex, named after the book dealer who bought it in 1912, refuses to yield its mysteries.
3) There is no dearth of natural mysteries either. Michael Brooks, the New Scientist Editor, once tantalized his readers with a list of 13 things that don’t make sense. He includes Nocebo, a diagnosis of terminal disease that can come true even if its wrong; also Bloop, which was a series of sounds louder than any whale song heard in 1997 on US underwater monitoring equipment. It was never heard again.
4) Some old mysteries are beginning to yield new answers. For centuries, eyewitnesses have reported seeing strange bright lights in the sky just before or during earthquakes. Consistently dismissed as old wives tales, the phenomenon was taken seriously only after being filmed in Japan. A new hypothesis attributes it to rifts and faults and squeezing of plates leading to creation of light.
5) Now a slightly different subject—why do some animals behave better than man-made super-computers? Many animals escaped the great Asian tsunami on Boxing Day, 2004, catching (earlier than man-made equipments) the special vibrations coming from the depth of the earth.

"This is what the LORD says: "Let not the wise man boast of his wisdom or the strong man boast of his strength or the rich man boast of his riches, but let him who boasts boast about this: that he understands and knows me, that I am the LORD."--Jeremiah 9:23, 24.

I have worked in Bengal (State of India) where Mother Theresa melted like a candle for the sake of the repulsive refuse of the community. Why I used the name of Mother Theresa is that she is a good symbol for what Jesus said “Many from West and East” who would inherit the heaven—having been born in the West, and served in the East! It is not for no reason that this TOO PRECIOUS PEARL of all times was awarded The Nobel Peace Prize 1979 (which obviously COFTY is unaware of).

How many mistakes one can make in understanding a simple statement of Jesus? Take one sample statement:
“I say to you that many will come from the east and the west, and will take their places at the feast with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven. But the subjects of the kingdom will be thrown outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.” (Mathew 8:11, 12)
1) Jesus declares: Abraham, Isaac and Jacob will inherit kingdom of HEAVEN.
JWs declare: They will not, because they belong to pre-Christian period. (Contrast Hebrews 11:16)2) Jesus declares: MANY will come from THE EAST and THE WEST and will inherit kingdom of HEAVEN
JWs declare: They will not, because the people of the East are pagan, and if at all they were converted by Christendom, they were only made into the part of the Babylon the Great, hence double worthy of Gehenna. And people of the West are mostly materialistic and part of Christendom, and they too are part of Babylon the Great. The expression “MANY” is wrong, because a few “Anointed Ones” who support the GB will only inherit heaven!3) Jesus declares: “subjects of the kingdom will be thrown outside” on the basis of principle he stated later in Mathew 21:43
JWs declare: Subjects of the kingdom will NOT be thrown outside.In the same vein of thought, one may ask them:
Will saints like Mother Theresa inherit heaven? Jesus will say: “Of course, and ABSOLUTELY. And if she will not inherit heaven, then who else will?” Because Jesus had already declared: “Truly I tell you, the tax collectors and the prostitutes are entering the kingdom of God ahead of you.” (Mathew 21:31; Compare Luke 19:1-10)If you ask the same question (regarding Mother Theresa) to JWs, you will hear a most cruel answer from them. I have heard it even from their Elite class: Gilead Missionaries!

Governing Body Running Scarred and 12-13-14 "Might Be the End"?
by RottenRiley inthis went bad, i hit click before i could post my thoughts about the fear factor going through our crazy kingdom hall.
the title of this thread was aimed at asking why the governing body is becoming so afraid and demanding the elders and rank and file to put their trust in the dukes of the kingdom hall.

GB knew that people would look at 2014 with so much of groaning and pain, hence diversion is the key!
Thus, they effectively diverted their flock’s attention (from frustration of not seeing end after waiting for so long from 1914) into a burning thought of IMMINENT end—A phrase they have been using from their very inception.
For this, they have the support of 1 Corinthians 10:11 which implied end would come in the FIRST CENTURY itself: “These things happened to them as examples and were written down as warnings for us, on whom the culmination of the ages has come.”

Drug overdose causes death of Union Ministers wife!
by abiather in1) medicine, if taken carelessly, can kill a person!
this came to the light because the one died was a wife of union minister, who was an under-secretary in un before.
this can happen, because it was over-dosage.

They are not worried not only about dates, but also about the truthfulness of certain verses such as this:
“I say to you that many will come from THE EAST and THE WEST, and will take their places at the feast WITH ABRAHAM, Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of HEAVEN. But the subjects of the kingdom will be thrown outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.” (Mathew 8:11, 12)
Will we “be thrown outside”? is another worry!
And who are those coming from the EAST and WEST to inherit HEAVEN along with Abraham? How many misunderstanding one can make in just one verse of the Bible?
1) Abraham is going to be in Heaven
2) People from The East and The West are going to be in Heaven
3) Are JWs who claim to be the sole Kingdom Heirs to be thrown outside?

Yes, cantleave, that is what I wanted to highlight. Before going for any major treatment, get maximum opinions on the subject--including on alternative medicine, as happened in the case of Clinton.
To my own fleshly sister, doctors suggested heart-operation to replace a narrowed valve. She did not bother to do it. However, her friend doctor said: If its from the birth, body will take care of it. You only need to be careful not to aggravate it by your diet and life-style. She did that, and it is now more than 25 years--she has no problem.
Everywhere GREED rules!

Who Made The Code?
by Perry ina few weeks ago, discoveries were made that show that there is another dna code language that rides on top of the already incredibly complex 4-letter code previously discovered.
this newly discovered code apparently regulates how genes work.
as i noted in a previous thread, the amount of data storage available in the dna storage system just the size of a pin-head would filll a stack of books stacked from your driveway to the moon .... 500 times!

OK (here is the link: http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/Drug-overdose-cause-of-Sunanda-Pushkars-death-AIIMS-autopsy-report/articleshow/29118949.cms)
2) Have you heard of former president Clinton’s misery? His mistake was that He trusted high-profile doctors and underwent many bypass surgeries, but all in vain. However, when he tried 'China Study Diet' or 'Whole Food Plant Based Diet (WFPB)' and decided to follow the diet for six months even though not very strictly, within six months his clogged arteries cleaned up, calcium deposits washed away, stent got removed, weight reduced to normal and he became an active energetic and charismatic man as he was while he was the president of USA.
3) In India the total number of patients dying of angiography on the diagnosis table every year equals to the total number of people killed in all the terrorist attacks put together from 1987 to 2013! An impartial study would reveal that more often patients die of the complications of the surgery and the long term side effects of the medication involved, rather than by the disease itself!
This is not to alarm you, but just to suggest that how cautiously we will have to tread our paths.—Proverbs 22:3
