Another Martyr on the Watchtower alter........
by Gill inevery so often, i think, perhaps i'm starting to let go of any interest in the wtbts and what it's poor deluded followers continue to do, or to suffer because of their misguided interpretation of the bible and, well....life in general.
however, my mum called me the other evening to tell me about a former jw 'friend'.
she is 48 and has just been diagnosed with a blood cancer.

The National Lottery, the WTBTS and the Scam!
by Gill inthere was a programme a few weeks ago on the radio, interviewing a woman who used to work for the national lottery, in the uk.. she said that the way the lottery preferred it was that, everyone in the country gave them one pound on a wednesday and a saturday and that people were not going 'overboard' giving massive bets and then getting flat broke.
now, there are at least 60 million people in the uk.
take away the children, let's say roughly 40 million.

Who to blame.....
by Gill in.
so, if we're supposed to thank god for all the 'good things', food, clothes, rain, sun etc, who do we get to blame for all the bad things, war, crime, death, disease, etc?.
if he can make the 'sun shine on the righteous and unrighteous', why can't he give food to everyone, and water to everyone?.

'Whoever changes religion - kill him.'
by Gill inthis morning's times had a article that reminded me a little of the jw view on apostates, or people who change their beliefs.. 'whoever changes religion - kill him'.
ruth gledhill (religious correspondent).
the koran is contradictory on the fate of those who deny the truth of islam.. fourteen passages refer to apostasy and, of these, seven refer to punishment, generally to be given in the next life.. sura 40 says that those who reject the scriptures will have iron collars and chains placed around their necks, be dragged into scalding water and burnt in the fire.

Is Time Speeding up? The Schumann Resonance
by Gill infrom what i have been reading recently, time has been steadily speeding up, and measurably so, according to the measurements of the schuman resonance.
we now fit more or less, 18 months into a 12 month year.. apparantly, this is supposed to continue up until the 21st or 23rd december 2012. at this point the earth will be at the end of its 26,000 year cycle .
we on the earth orbit the sun.

Is another Global Cataclysm overdue?
by Gill inno matter what religion or era, the human race has always been obsessed with an 'impending armageddon, or cataclysm' of such proportions, that only a few will survive.. it is thought by some 'thinkers' and 'authors' that this is because of cataclysms that occurred thousands upon thousands of years ago that wiped out our technologically advanced ancestors.. .
is religions' obsession with another huge cataclymic event, an inevitablility, such as meteor strike or earth crust displacements causing multiple tsunami, the armageddon that is the inevitable interruption to another human civilisation?
a global pandemic could wipe out billions of people.
