The best argument that we have an immaterial part (called Spirit/Soul) came from Jesus Christ
by abiather inthe best argument that we have an immaterial part (called spirit/soul) came from jesus christ.
however, it is recorded in the gospel of thomas (not in the traditional four gospels).
jesus says: if the flesh came into existence because of the spirit, it is a marvel.

Be nice to theists - they are victims of their genes
by cofty inidentical twin studies show there is a strong inheritable component to religiosity.
thomas bouchard studied identical and fraternal twins raised apart and tested them on religious attitudes.. the correlation for the former turned out to be 62% compared to just 2% for the latter.

A random HISTORY of that old rugged cross used by JW's until 1931
by TerryWalstrom incorinthians 1:18, holman christian standard bible "for to those who are perishing the message of the cross is foolishness, but to us who are being saved it is gods power.
an austrian radiologist, hermann moedder, experimented with medical students in the 40's, hanging them by their wrists with their hands directly above their heads (much like the watchtower pictures jesus on a stake).
in a few minutes, the students became pale, their lung capacity dropped from 5.2 to 1.5 liters, blood pressure decreased and the pulse rate increased.

Living organisms are adapted to their environment, they do not ' seek ' to adapt. Survival of the fittest means the tiny burrowing creature may survive an environment which is detrimental to a large fit strong creature. I had to explain that to my jw dad who still didn't get it ugh !! -

Hi and welcome...yes indeed the manipulation and compliant vulnerability of the JWs is quite staggering.
If they were told by the hierarchy that the internet was still taboo, he would be praying for protection from it....how gullible!!
Best wishes .

GB says, "Our way of worship will soon be altered."
by Separation of Powers inmy mom called me yesterday to ask how i was doing.
i hadn't seen her in a while, so it was nice to hear her voice.
we went through the motions of jw small talk and then she started telling me about her co visit from last week.

Display of National Flags in Kingdom Halls in Chile: WTS' Response
by BluesBrother inremember this and other threads a few months back, on the subject that some kingdom halls in chile acquiesced to govt rules that every building should display the national flag on the day of celebration?.
http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/262505/kingdom-hall-chile-has-national-flag?size=20&page=1.
many of us here and around the net, calling on our dub experiences cried "never would that happen!

That letter of 'explanation ' represents no more than twisted words to protect the wtb&ts buck !!
Being ' no part of the world ' by most reasonable thinking must include not flying/displaying the national symbol of the countries of satans wicked worldly system.
HYPOCRITS !!!!!

Truth behind the arrogance
by abiather inin our personal lives we have experienced that it is the inner elements (thoughts, feelings, emotions ...) that ultimately influence a relationships rather the outer elements (what we say or do)!
these inner elements are more powerful and faster than the outer elements!.
when i was with jws, it is their stubbornness and arrogance that i felt more than the outer elements.

Intuition or a' hunch ' may well prove to be wrong, whereas rationality may solve the issue.
