What Stupid Things Were You Counseled For?
by minimus ini've always been told that i have a very good personality, that i'm humorous, etc.. one elder called me over and said that i was "smiling too much".
the other elders talked to the elder who counseled me and he came back to say that i should be like i was .

Hello Andersoninfo - who writes the current WT ,mags?
by 1914BS inor is that top secret?
i mean you probably have the connections but can't post these names because of a betrayal of trust even though you might be regarded as super apostate in the bethell circle of friends.
i was a witness for the first 25 years of my life and i always thought that the wt mags were written by the fds.

Ouija Board Hysteria

GB says they are NOT responsible for people acting on their counsel
by LUKEWARM in.. *** w98 3/15 p. 22 par.
15 living up to christian dedication in freedom ***.
15if a witness makes decisions on the basis of bible counsel offered by the governing body, he does so of his own volition because his own study of the bible has convinced him that this is the proper course.

Gog and Magog - Ezekiel Chapters 38 and 39
by UnDisfellowshipped inthe war of gog of magog (from ezekiel chapters 38 and 39).
the watchtower society teaches that gog is another name for satan the devil, and magog, persia, sudan, lybia, meschech, tubal, beth-togarmah are all just "symbolic" names for all of the nations of the earth that satan will use to attack jehovah's witnesses at the battle of armageddon.. however, since most of the other prophecies in ezekiel were taken literally, why should this one be symbolic?.
what are your thoughts on this prophecy?.

Putting the 'probability argument' against abiogenesis in the grave once and for all
by bohm inamongst the many arguments for and against creation the probability arguments stands out.
the improbability of generating the necessary proteins by chanceor the genetic information to produce themto balloon beyond comprehension.
... the odds of getting even one functional protein of modest length (150 amino acids) by chance from a prebioitc soup is no better than 1 chance in 10164. meyer continues, another way to say that is the probability of finding a functional protein by chance alone is a trillion, trillion, trillion, trillion, trillion, trillion, trillion, trillion times smaller than the odds of finding a single specific particle among all the particles in the universe.. the evidence for the probability of origin of life arising from darwins warm little pond seems to have vanished beyond the realm of any possibilityregardless of any early earth scenario.. i really, really want to put it in the grave because i think its an embaressment to the theists and thinking humans in general; its right up there with 'noahs ark has been found' and 'humans have less chromosomes than monkeys', but for some reason people dont see through it.
