  If you've never watched the original series 'Cosmos' by Carl Sagan, I highly suggest you do.

  Here is the segment Carl did regarding Eratosthenes:

  well i finally got the, "we would like to stop by with the circus oversneer and have an encouraging visit.

  would ---------day be good, at say -----------?".

  it'll probably be a pretty dull visit with the entire conversation being only one way.

  Good to 'see' you Snakes! So glad your life is going great. :0)

  As for having JWs drop around, I would just tell them "My schedule is really busy. I'm not available."

  That's what I do with my boss. A couple of times now my work has called me at home on the weekends and have left me messages. I just keep telling them "I'm not home on the weekends. You're never going to get me."

  JWs and their views on Sex

  by campaign of hate in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  in the past i have read on this forum that the wt have a say in the "bedroom" of couples.

  i thought that was a bit overkill at first, but recently i have come to conclusion that this is true.. the control administered by the wt cooperation on ones sex life is not on only intrusive, its damaging.

  they control every aspect of ones thought and action, thus leading most down a path that said corporation wants them to tread.. this path is to get married young, and then eternal loyalty the the organisation.. so how can an organisation force you to get married young?.

  i am in complete shock!

  bearing in mind i still class myself as 'doubting' and still have/had respect for some jw teachings, well i can't believe what i just listened to from a member of the governing body.

  im sure a lot of you have seen this but for anyone new like me, you have to see this.

  hello all.. i haven't been here for some time to post as mainly i read the comments and such.

  two sisters had called last week when i had an abscess on my tooth and was sort of sick from it.

  Jehovah's Witnesses are recruiters. They do not study the Bible. Most JWs don't really even know the whole Bible. JWs are trained a certain way in order to convince you to join their religion (aka cult).
  

  JWs study the Watchtower's publications, which are really just their sales aids, and use the Bible to back up what the Watchtower publishes, in order to convince you to join. If they cannot use their pre-determined method of salesmanship, they are lost. They are all told that without the Watchtower's magazines, etc, they cannot know the Bible. This is why they feel uncomfortable.

  They need to bring in the elder to straighten you out so that you will accept the JW way of convincing you to join. If he can't do it, they'll likely stop coming.

  Christianity: The most deceptive religion

  by opusdei1972 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  jesus was a jew who apparently thought he was the messiah, however, after dying, his disciples began to propagate the lie that he would return from heaven during his generation.

  but, his generation passed away, and it was clear that it was a false prophecy, then a dishonest christian wrote the second letter of peter so as to condemn those who realised that the prophecy was a fiasco.

  interestingly, and sadly, this religion survived,....why????

  People in positions of power and authority saw a means to control the masses and acquire financial rewards from them. Always follow the power and money.

  The Voyager 1 space probe was sent out in 1977 to explore our solar system. As it left our system Feb 14, 1990, the spacecraft was ordered by NASA to turn around and take a photograph of the planet Earth, some 6 billion kms away. The "Pale Blue Dot" image is now over 25 years old. The image is a dot... not a line. The Earth is NOT flat.

  The JW religion has just cost me my marriage & my family life

  by jambon1 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  after leaving the organisation 10 years ago i fought with everything i had to stay in my marriage and with my three children.

  after a tumultuous number of years trying to maintain a happy family life while living in a divided home, it's finally over.

  the religion is single handedly responsible for destroying my marriage and my family.

  It's incredibly sad.

  Ending of a marriage is one of the highest stressors anyone can experience. The effects are very similar to suffering from the death of a loved one.

  And I agree with GT... you were, are, and still can be a great Dad.

  If everyone stopped contributing to the Watchtower World Wide Pedophile Defense Fund, the Borg may actually go broke.

  Thanks for doing your part HMTM.
