A Picture Paints a Thousand Words
by cofty inmany years ago i came across this painting in the national museum of scotland in edinburgh.
simply called "hagar" it was painted by andrew geddes in the early 19th c.. i was touched by the sadness of the subject.
at the time i was a loyal jw and my ability to read the bible through a filter that could justify anything was at its peak.. for the first time i was forced to face up to the scandal of how abraham and sarah treated their young slave girl.

If I Had Intelligently Designed Man...
by VoidEater in...i'd leave out stuff that serves no purpose - like the appendix and coccyx.. ...i'd make the testicles internal so all those baseballs in the groin didn't hurt so much.. ...i'd add a third hand and eyes in the back of the head.. .

Now That Their Crazy Overlap Doctrine is Out, They Can Promote More GB
by OnTheWayOut inthis overlap stuff is such heavy crap.
i wondered why they had so many changes in the last few years.
it might be because the old guard is in charge and there is a small governing body.

The Flat Earth Society, why did it last so long ?
by wobble inthe flat earth society still exists actually as several sites on the net,some run by loonies, some a bit tongue in cheek.. the actual society was started in the early fifties by a strange guy who lived in dover,kent in the u.k. wiki has his story if you want more.. what surprised me was that it survived for years despite the obvious evidence for how wrong its ideas were.
the final tipping point came with the publication of photographs from space,showing a very sphere-like earth.
of course members of the society contended that the photos were faked , or "misinterpreted" .

The sexual "morality" thing
by Quillsky inmy mother got involved with jehovah's witnesses in the 1960s/70s because mainly i think she didn't believe in the sexual "morality" or "immorality" of that era.
i believe she didn't see many other religions speaking out against sex before marriage and abortion.. and so she drew relatives and her own children down into the trap, the morass, the molasses, of anti blood transfusion and end-of-the-world clap-trap thanks to her well-believing sexual morality.. anybody else with family trapped because of the "morality" of jehovah's witnesses?.
