by darkl1ght3r in(proverbs 26:4-5)4 do not answer anyone stupid according to his foolishness, that you yourself also may not become equal to him.
5 answer someone stupid according to his foolishness, that he may not become someone wise in his own eyes.. so which is it?

as a JW were you comfortable with this question?
by highdose ina few times in the ministry i would find someone clued in who would ask the jw on their doorstep " so what your saying is, unless i join your religon god will kill me?
and everyone else who isn't part of your religon?
" now theres only one answer to that question as far as jw's are concerned but i never saw a single one answer that with a straight answer, mostly i suspect because they were so uncomfortable about being made to face the truth about their beliefs..

2008 WT Library Question (1st JWN posting too!)
by yknot inokay, i haven't been really paying attention to all the letters read to the congregation in the last two month.. this week it was some stupid announcement about mandarin chinese and the keep book being mp3 audio-ed on jw.org (if a publisher is computer illiterate, a cd can be ordered from the organization-but a brother who is tech savvy should offer to burn one instead of incurring cost to the slave).. then i realize i haven't heard squat about the 2008 wt library (cd or dl?)..
so i just checked my 07 wtcd and we have daily texts until the week of march 5, 2009 feb 26, 2009.. does anyone have any info on the 2008 wt library?.
is it going to be a dl or cd?.

NT "ho theos", and John 8: 58
by hamsterbait inthe wt says that if john 1 : 1 said the word is god it would have put the word "ho" before theos.. john 20; 28 refers to christ as ho theos.. john 8: 58 in nwt is "before abraham came into existence i have been" (prin abraham genesthai ego en) but the w&h greek text reads "prin abraham genesthaiego eimi".
there are three footnotes in the three editions of nwt to this:.
"perfect indefinite tense" - is this a greek or hebrew tense?.

NOAH'S SON BITH: Was he Df'd or did he just "miss the boat"?
by cameo-d inreally, folks...if noah lived to be 950 years old, does it stand to reason that he would only have 3 children????.
in irish mythology, cessair (or ceasair) was the leader of the first inhabitants of ireland before the biblicalflood, in what may be a christianisation of a legend that pre-dates the conversion, but may alternatively be the product of post-conversion pseudohistory.. she was daughter of noah's son bith and his wife birren.
according to legend, when her father was denied a place in the ark by noah, cessair advised him to build an idol.
