What Do JWs Think About Dinosaurs?
by Cold Steel ini've seen evangelical sites that show dinosaurs dying in the great flood.
these people believe that god created the earth in seven 24-hour days, and have wondered that if god could just "speak" the earth into existence, why he would need the other six days.
(couldn't he just will it into existence in a flash?).

Interesting conversation with a pioneer today
by ldrnomo ini went into my favorite cafe this afternoon for lunch and saw a husband and wife that go to the congregation i used to go to.
the woman is a pioneer and has been for years and her husband is an elder who i've talked to a couple of times since i stopped going to meetings 3 years ago but i have not talked to her in 3 years.. when i got my lunch, i looked up and noticed them sitting by the window so i went over to them and said hello.
he said hi but when i said hello to the woman she just kinda looked at me.

Exercising some doubt, or suspending belief, can be a real protection
by booby inof course, not all doubt is bad.
at times, you need to suspend acceptance of something till you are sure of the facts.
religious exhortations to the effect that you should just believe and should doubt nothing are dangerous and deceptive.

Take your Vitamin D, people.
by BurnTheShips inwhat do you lack?
probably vitamin dvitamin d promises to be the most talked-about and written-about supplement of the decade.
while studies continue to refine optimal blood levels and recommended dietary amounts, the fact remains that a huge part of the population from robust newborns to the frail elderly, and many others in between are deficient in this essential nutrient.. .
