"You're missing the tool to view private messages." -- Is that legit message from jwn?

by FatFreek 2005 in

i suspect it is valid but i really want confirmation before i click those 3 steps.

there's actually nothing on that screen that says it has anything to do with jwn -- therefore my caution.. len.

Yes I thought it would be a dodgy advert. I never trust anything that says to download stuff.

Feb Kingdom Ministry 2015: Irate Householders - why so angry?

by Trailer Park Pioneer in

feb kingdom ministry 2015, irate householders, "we don't apologize for our work", "did they hear rumors about jws"?

why so angry?

blood or disfellowshipping?.

KateWild

On the upside, hearing about a "rumor" may lead to TTATT.- DD

This is a real potentially good out come. If JWs come to us we can express our thoughts about Dfing or blood and hopefully give them some food for thought.

Sadly most of the JWs in my area know me so I can't really help them that way.

Scientists almost created life in a lab?!

by abiather in

the scientists at the scripps research institute, california, have almost succeeded in creating the world's first living organism with artificial dna!.

l-stereo isomers. Enantiomers that are required for life and occur in nature are all left handed. But in the lab a racemic mixture is formed unless it is guided by a catalyst. The soai reaction talks about an autocatalyst.

This is enough evidence for me that the process is guided.

LOL Angus, we have been here before, but I don't mind covering it again for newbies and lurkers hahaha.

I think this is evidence of a guided process. A higher power had to be guiding the chemistry. I don't believe the higher power cares about us in any way shape or form, he is just letting us get on with it.

Poster country flags and privacy

by Simon in

the new forum originally had a little country flag next to each post showing the country that the post was made from based on the geoip encoding (the country the ip address is from).

before i switched over to the new site someone made an issue about it violating their privacy and i didn't want to complicate and confuse the switchover with policy debate at the same time as technical issues so removed the flags even though i disagreed.. someone has already requested it as a feature and i think it should be added back so i thought it's now time to open the discussion and get everyone's opinions.

first, the reason i think it should be shown:.

KateWild

Violias,

You obviously havent read all my posts on this thread.

I make it a habit to research who I am talking to especially if they are giving me advice.

You would do well to do the same.

Bohm, no one else said they would leave.

You seem perturbed by the fact that I looked up your posting history.

That is my practice when people post on my threads....I look them up to see who I am talking to. I want to know more about the person giving me advice.

I also asked you straight out some personal questions and you answered me but did not reveal anything pertenant.

Trust me your girlfriend is safe from being exposed or stalked by elders.

Ann,

Fair enough many may feel they have proof of being outed just because of the flag.

But I guessed where a poster was from without them wanting to reveal that information.

Being overly guarded is a bad trait. We need to learn to be open and trusting after WT, and live with the blessings it brings as well as the terrible consequences.

In some cases ones are just more private than others.

Bohm, I have looked up your posting history in the past, you reveal nothing personal.

No one will out your girlfriend based on anything you have posted.

The fact you have made so many will make it less appealing to a snooping elder anyway.

I have read all 13 pages. The arguments for and against are clear.

Bohm, I have looked at your posting histor to find out more about you and there aren't any revealing personal posts.

Many have been outed without the country, as humans we have the need to vent and share and connect with others.

Being overly guarded can be bad for us and is a condition that is inherited from WT that we need to overcome.

New posters will join with the flag and old ones will leave. You can't please everyone Simon.
