How did you teach your kids TTATT? How old were they?

by KateWild in

when i first started going on "other" jw websites my head was spinning so i didn't say anything to my kids about what i had read.

steve hassan's material helped a lot it was when i read that, that i realised i need to free my kids.. i got a lot of advice from jwn too.. my daughter had moved cities and went to the hall we used to visit frequently.

things changed when she became a member instead of just a visitor.

I thought I was helping them to not be judgmental, but in reality I was not respecting their feelings, shutting them down and stunting their growth.-KM

Really great point, well done for changing your mind good move

"ma, that kind of sounds like he saying to brainwash your child, don't it?" I looked at him as if I was thinking about the answer, and could think of a rebuttal...I smiled and we both started laughing.-KM

Ahhh that's priceless, how old is he? PM me if you need to keep it confidential.

Matthew Powner- Advanced research on the Origin of life. How credible is he?

by KateWild in

i have come to the conclusion that science cannot prove or disprove the existence of god.

however the scientific evidence available is compelling enough for me to believe that a creator is responsible for life on earth.. i have read much about powner and understand the work he is doing.

i am interested in your views as to his credibility.

KateWild

I'll agree that it seems that the chemistry is incredibly complex, and maybe even extremely unlikely to happen by chance.-OneEyedJoe

What Powner is talking about is the formation of nucleotides in the lab, using phosphorous molecules as catalysts.

This process would involve the separation of d-enatiomers and l-enatiomers resulting in a homochiral solution that contains mainly l-enantiomers. The position of the different elements is important in the formation of RNA and DNA and then in living things. Homochiral solutions require an autocatalyst (Soai Reaction) to form, otherwise a racemic mixture is produced. (equal L and D isomers)

A catalyst that is automated like this is evidence for me that probably a Creator is involved, that's why I draw a different conclusion to you, but I still cannot prove fully that there is a God.

Anyone Knows/Heard that New Congregation in the UK Don't Qualify for Charitable Status?

by Da.Furious in

following from cedars blog.. based on what an elder told me, new congregations in uk are not eligible anymore for charitable status.

i am a member of such new congregation and they dont have charitable status.

i have searched on http://www.charitycommission.gov.uk/find-charities/ and couldnt find it.

KateWild

It's WT taking control of donations slowly. I think there was another elders letter about this. It means all donations go stright to NY. Stop donating, in fact skip the meetings this week and do something fun with the family, like go swimming, or out for a meal.

by Gorbatchov in

jw
friends

the august km left me stunned.

in the mast head it connects 100 years of kingdom rule via j.f.

rutherford famous "advertise" to the special campain in october for the website jw.org.. how low can we go?!?.

KateWild

Here's a copy if anyone wants to see it

https://onedrive.live.com/view.aspx?cid=29EE605CF0B4E383&resid=29EE605CF0B4E383!112&app=WordPdf

It's pure twisting false prophecy, and insighting zeal. Such sickening indoctrination. Trying to convince JWs they are living in a special time never seen before, 100 years of kingdom reign. AAAHHhhh such nonsense.

Getting kicked out.

by bobert in

jw
friends

sometime this week.

my parents are getting a lot of heat from the congregation, and tension in my house was already super high.

i know it's inevitable.

KateWild

MissFit,

It's possible he's been kicked out and has no access to internet. Very sad indeed.

Giordano,

Wow that quote is a great find!!!!!!!! I am so glad a credible physicist concludes the same as me. What a sensible conclusion Kate xx

I won't give up hope, but it's difficult to reach a person what refuses to communicate.-Oub

I don't give up hope for you either, you are such a nice man, I bet you are a terrific dad. I have just been chatting to my dad now. I couldn't imagine not wanting to speak to him. Your child does not realise what they've lost yet, but soon.

Why not write a short letter every now and then?

That's not satisfying to me, so in the lack of any evidence I see no use in entertaining the idea further. Sorry, kinda side-tracked your origonal question- OneEyedJoe

I intended the whole OP to be a mixture of evidence or not of God, and credibility of Matthew Powner. You did not get side tracked at all, thank you for your perspective. I have pondered on the question......................

If god Created everything then who created God?

The only answer I can come up with is that he has always existed and he is infinate. That doesn't really satisfy me to be honest. But the chemistry Powner was talking about satisfies me that there is a Creator.

Thanks for your input.
