Josephus says the temple lay desolate for 50 years
by JWB injosephus says the temple lay desolate for 50 years.
"these accounts agree with the true history in our books; for in them it is written that nebuchadnezzar, in the eighteenth year of his reign, laid our temple desolate, and so it lay in that state of obscurity for fifty years; but that in the second year of the reign of cyrus, its foundations were laid, and it was finished again in the second year of darius.
" - extract from "flavius josephus against apion" 1.21. .

Things that were supposedly demonized
by freshstart ini was just thinking about all the fear i had when i was a kid that i would be attacked by demons if i wasn't careful.
i mean i lived in absolute terror over it, so i'm going to reminisce about the things i was told were demonized and you can add to the list if you'd like:.

untitled
by jemba ini often wonder what the borg would do if governments decided to end 'marraige'.
so you have the ceremony but there is no need for the legal bit.
i kinda think things are headed that way because defacto and same sex relationships already have the same legal rights.. marraige is open to abuse.

Interracial Marriage
by Quendi inhere is a question i want to pose because i do not know the correct answer.
i have seen many interracial married couples among jehovah's witnesses--moreso than i have seen in other religions.
however, i have been told that once upon a time, interracial marriage was frowned upon by the wts hierarchy.

AMAZING business idea = Billionaires !
by snare&racket inok so hear me out.... we get people to build their own 'store' by borrowing money from us, we tell them they have to recruit other customers with all their free time, then we ask for money..... what is the product?..............
our thoughts !.
if only it could be done, it would be the best business in the world, money for thoughts and the customer pays for everything, the literature our thoughts are printed on, the buildings where our thoughts are spoken and the buildings we live in whilst we consider what our thoughts are once a week on a wednesday morning.. just to add incentive, our thoughts are never to be questioned and we are to have the authority of god.. now if only people were susceptible to other peoples thoughts..... hmmm what do people want?.
