Are all sins "equal" to the JW's.
by JH in.
if a witness plays lotto, and doesn,t repent, he is disfellowshipped.. if a witness steals, and doesn't repent, he is disfellowshipped.. if a witness fornicates, and doesn't repent, he is disfellowshipped.. does this mean that the jw's consider playing lotto being just as bad as stealing or fornicating or even killing?.
how about you, in what order would you class sins?.

Field service horror/humor stories.
by sonnyboy inthis has probably been done before, but has anyone had any scary or funny things happen to them during field service?
i used to go door-to-door with the most obnoxious elder in the world.
if we approached a house, saw signs of life, but they didn't answer the door, he'd actually go around and knock on their windows!

Does being a JW make a person physically sick?
by Gill indefinitely mentally and more than likely physically.. i have read on a few posts and freeminds about an increase of mental illness amoungst jws of between 2 and 40 % and it seems understandable considering the amount of stress being in the borg puts on people.. but what about physically?.
what are your experiences since leaving the borg?.
do you feel well and fitter than ever before?.

age of people before the flood
by DannyBloem inhere is some question about the ages mentioned in the bible of the people living before the flood.. the age of all the ten persons unto noah is mentioned there when the get there first son, and the number of years that the lived after that.. so many of the numbers mentioned here end with a zero or a five that it started me wondering.
there are also one or two that end with an 8 or 3. no other numbers.
if we make the assumption that this are 8 and 3 are rounded from 2.5 and 7.5 we can say that all numbers are a multiple of 2.5 or 30 months.. when you look at this statistically it is impossible that it is coincidence (with or without the assumption above).

I'm telling lies from the stage
by DannyBloem ini recently gave a public talk, and i really felt bad about it.. it was the public talk about the great flood of noahs days.
the is so much evidence that this great deluge never happened, but that is something you can't tell the audience from the stage.
(i will tell about that evidence if people are interested, but it is a bit off-topic now).

Notice what the society Admits
by skyman ininsight on the scriptures vol 1 pages 345, paragraph 6 at deuteronomy 14:21 allowances was made for selling to an alien resident or a foreigner an animal that had died of itself or that had been torn by a beast.
thus a distinction was made between the blood of such animals and that of animals that a person slaughtered for food.
{compare le 17:14-16} the israelites, as well as alien residents who took up true worship and came under the law covenant, were obligated to live up to the lofty requirements of that law.
