recently we watched a documentary entitled: "the dark truth of religion".

from the quality of the video, it appeared to be made several decades ago.

it reminded me of a type of movie that they would show in a college class about the history of world religions.

Lightbulb Moment ------> Two Witness Rule
by 4thgen in
1. watchtower
2. bible
the jw's always say that there must be "two witnesses before a matter is firmly established".

if that is the case, then why is the account of moses and the 10 commandments or jesus in the wilderness talking to satan taken as fact?

moses and jesus were both by themselves in the wilderness.
