a few weeks ago, these two jovies turned up on my doorstep.
being in a good mood that particular day, i told them that if they could prove that god existed, i'd become a jovie - and i meant every word.. they gave me two documents which they asked me read and told me that they'd be back in a week.
the first was called "was life created?
Penrose's statistics are meaningless based on the probability of one universe.His calculations didn't take the multiverse theory into account making it an untestable claim.
I wonder what his calculation for the probability of a highly intelligent designer coming form nothing would be?
The bottom line line is this - the we can prove the universe exists, there is no such evidence for gods.
so the other day i was walking through the huge local regional outlet shopping mall.
i see this sign "how do deal with anxiety" didn't take very long at all to confirm it was a jw booth.. that sign bothered me.
do jw actually think they have something to say about anxiety?
i hope everyone is having a good saturday.
i've visited this many times in the past month or so, joined yesterday and finally got the nerve to post!
needless to say, i'm super nervous, being new to this whole experience.
i'm just curious if any body knows or can give an example of a kingdom hall that needed renovating/repairing after the kh bank accounts were stripped.
The BOE just took it in stride, I saw it as straight up robbery, WE raised that money, WE allocated those funds to be used at our hall, WTS takes the money and then tells us how we can't use the money WE saved.
You'd think that would piss a few of the hard working rank and file off.....

so i went to the rc this past weekend and have a few observations:.
1 - use of videos - most parts had some sort of video prop.
they ranged from awkward (an example was on friday where they showed scenes of nature without a real purpose other than god made this) to very well done.
the past five weeks have been perhaps the most painful in my life as a witness.. some months ago a young man (i'd say in his late thirties or early forties) began attending meetings at my kingdom hall.
he had just moved to my area from another state.
he had disassociated himself from his home congregation many years back, when he was 20 years old and going through many of the typical trials and temptations most young men experience.. two of the elders met with him initially, and they later shared the details with the body of elders.
at long last, after 140 years of failed prophecies, it appears that the borg finally got one right!
recall the odd little article published back in the november 15th, 2013 wt about the 7 shepherds 8 dukes (anti-type) and the evil assyrian (anti-type) and some silly nonsense about the assyrians attack on the vulnerable wtbts.
page 20 paragraph 17 of that strange article contained this foreboding prophecy from the faithful and discreet slave, (anti-type);.
Judge Rutherford got it right then and it is still right now when he said, "Religion is a snare and a racket."
Hence why he stole a religion to line his own pockets!
