The Two Forces
by N.drew inthe ark pictures the response to one kind.. it means the customs of the people can cause catastrophe.. and most people did not stop the destructive behavior , but some used it to be redeemed.. .
sodom pictures the other kind.. it means the people respond badly to the intuitive recognition that doom is ahead.. .
in one case what the people are doing causes something bad.

I guess I am no more a girlfriend in dilemma
by DilemmaGF ini think my boyfriend just dumped for jw.
he is an inactive jw, he was the the one who started tp pursue the relationship and now he kind of shunning me.
i don't why, maybe because he sensed that i am trying to tell him a lot about the true jesus and because he felt like he can't convert me, but that's okay, i understand.

Am only now discovering/reading the Apocrypha
by Muddy Waters ini was never a born-in jw, got baptized when i was 20 after being raised and belonging to a denomination of a protestant church.
so i never even knew that there was a "catholic" bible or extra bible books (the authenticity of their belonging in the canon or not is a debatable issue, and one i certainly have no answers about it!).
i knew through my study with jws that there were some "extra" books written, but since i believed everything the wt said hook, line, and sinker, i just went along with their explanation that they were not part of the bible canon.

Evil Spirits
by LizLA indoes anyone on this forum have knowledge about casting out demons or evil spirits?
there's at least two of them that have been harrasing me even before i was a jw.
i recently attended a deliverance church to find some help but it was apparent that the holy spirit was missing from that church.

Regulate Marijuana Like Wine (interesting article)
by sabastious inhttp://regulatemarijuanalikewine.com/legal-and-political-analysis-of-regulate-marijuana-like-wine/.
i am ecstatic to hear that people are attempting something like this.
i have always thought that using marijuana could be likened to using wine as a medicine.

ok jw teaching aside, can you see a time coming when religon will cease to exist?
by highdose inpossibly this could happen in a dramatic sudden way or a slow burn but can you see the human race progressing to the point were they no longer need to belive in these myths and legends?.

Why would god create animals that he finds disgusting and unclean??
by highdose ini'm thinking of the pig here, a creature supposeedly created by god, a perfect god.
why would god create a creature that then had to be avoided and kept away from??.
and why then change his mind later deciding that suddenly they weren't disgusting afterall and lets all have a bacon sarnie?!!.

Who designed cancer?
by snare&racket inone thing i regret, is not listening to the questions in my head whilst a jw.
one i didn't ask until years after leaving was....who designed disease?
of course the first thing to realise is the complexity of disease, the histology, pathology and aetiology.
