I actually liked most JWs. Too bad it couldn't be open like it started out when I got involved
by gubberningbody ini remember that there was this over the hill gang that would meet up at the mcdonalds for coffee in the morning and when they had a question on a subject it never occured to them to chjeck an index or anything.
they just debated among themselves and then made a decision and that was that.. i thought these old texans were some pretty cool old coots.. one brother i know had to take nitro for his heart and he and i were apointed servants the same night.
later a year or so he had just moved into a new apartment, bought a new truck and hadn't hooked his phone up.

No Virginia, the ancients NEVER believed the earth was flat
by gubberningbody inthat was a myth.
people in the 19th century believed the tales of washington irving in his story about columbus and passed the myth on.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/myth_of_the_flat_earth.
anyway, so the facts are that the babylonians, egyptians, greeks and consequently the bible writers too, knew the same.. .

God confused peoples language so they couldn't build Babel....a load of crap!
by Witness 007 inyeah well, back in the day a group of people built a tower to heaven, so god confused their languages so they would not build a "mega city" and become powerful.. or if you want to used half a brain....languages evolved over time as a form of comunication between different tribes.
many languages are related, slavic or asian languages share the same or simular words.
oh and the cherry on top is adam and eve spoke yiddish.....ooie mashugana!

Compare Bethel with the LDS HQ in Salt Lake City
by POs Son ini have been to both, bethel (all 3 complexes: brooklyn, walkill, paterson plus the jersey city stanley theater) as a teenager, and to tour the lds (mormon) complex in salt lake city as an adult.
i did bethel as a "witness" child, and slc as a totally non-jw adult.
the lds complex seemed more open to the public, inviting and comfortable.

What do you know "without googling" about the reputed mechanisms for evolution?
by gubberningbody ini see people take positions all day long and i rather suspect both sides are woefully ignorant.. i read and hear people speak of the volumes of data pro or con and when i ask for specific examples of what each may be referring to, i am often met with silence.. .
