  Is this proof that the flood was regional?

  by silent in

  i stumbled across a scripture today.

  it's numbers 13:33 "and there we saw the nephilim, the sons of anak, who are from the nephilim, and in comparison we seemed like grasshoppers, both to us and to them.. now if they honestly believed that they saw the nephilim, it would mean that some nephilim would have had to survive the flood or that the hijinks of the fallen angels before the flood, happened again shortly thereafter.

  the only other thing i can come up with is that nephilim was some kind of generic word that implied giant proportions, but not necessarily the nephilim.. comments from the more educated appreciated.. silent.

  Poster country flags and privacy

  by Simon in

  1. forum
  2. announcements

  the new forum originally had a little country flag next to each post showing the country that the post was made from based on the geoip encoding (the country the ip address is from).

  before i switched over to the new site someone made an issue about it violating their privacy and i didn't want to complicate and confuse the switchover with policy debate at the same time as technical issues so removed the flags even though i disagreed.. someone has already requested it as a feature and i think it should be added back so i thought it's now time to open the discussion and get everyone's opinions.

  first, the reason i think it should be shown:.

  No one holds a gun to your head and forces you to post personal stuff on here do they? No one holds your family hostage and wont release them unless you post while travelling do they? 

  You have freedom of choice to post or not, and how much personal info you reveal about yourself on here and elsewhere on the internet. If you have posted such personal info and it could come back to bite you and are then worried that a country flag will give your identity away, then whose fault is that really?

  If new accounts had a probationary period and had to have it (among other things), and after that it was optional (as well as for the existing accounts) then that would sort the spammers and trolls and keep most others happy, but be a pain in the ass for yourself obviously. :D

  Me? I dont care if people know I am from the UK, or Wales for that matter, but any more specific than that and I get nervous.

  Still pointing your Finger when having a Rafter in your eye?

  by DocHouse in

  yes- everyone has faults and makes mistakes; an organization even more so.. yet, you ignore all the fingers pointing at you.. many here have no faith.

  many here go to churches who lie about everything biblical; look at x-mas!.

  but at least we know god and christ and try to live up to their name!.

  I'm not df'd.

  What's with the random capitalisation of words, is that you shouting or your efforts at sounding important?

  Sorry I forgot myself there:

  No one likes a smug asshole. How about you build yourself a bullshit detector and learn how to use it?

  What you think you "know" amounts to diddly squat.

  Anyone who believes in the flood in this day and age has been living under a rock and chooses ignorance over reality. Get a grip, if you want the truth and claim the methodology  as follows:

  "What he learned was how to reason, a process that  all of us use just not with  deliberate steps showing understanding of a logical process, for example letting your emotions or personal pride color your conclusions."

  ... then make damn sure you apply it to yourself.

  Do you have that level of honesty to do so? I doubt it if you have spent years formulating and reinforcing your bullshit while not investing that time and energy in building yourself a bullshit detector.

  Will the evolutionists save us from the coming catastrophe?

  the earth's magnetic field is in a weakening stage right now.

  data collected this summer by a european space agency (esa) satellite suggests the field is weakening 10 times faster than scientists originally thought.

  if the magnetic field weakens enough, then the earth could be hit with dangerous amounts of solar radiation and cosmic rays .....

  I Let Go Of Faith Ten years Ago Today

  by cofty in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  after more than 30 years as a jw and 9 as a born-again christian i finally let go of faith 10 years ago today.... it was on boxing day 2004 that news of the asian tsunami put the final nail in the coffin of my relationship with god.

  since that time i have listened attentively to every possible argument in defense of faith; there has never been a single moment that i have felt any discomfort with my decision.. life without god has been liberating.

  no longer do i have to defend the indefensible.

  Ditto, thanks for being here and an inspiration to many including me.

  i flirted briefly with wishing there was a god and a need for the spiritual once I'd learned the TTATT, but it was an emotional response to the gaping hole in my wasted cult life and nothing more. Instead I consciously chose to to be true to myself and only go where the evidence led. It led to a god free life and the freedom to actually think is fantastic. :D

  What is truth?

  well, i have been lurking on this site for several months and i recently decided to join as a member.

  i have made several observations and would like to make a few comments.. first, i am perplexed by the attitude of many on this site that are either former or active (but apostate) jws.

  they seem to have a strong hatred for the wts and also for rank and file jws.

  Welcome, Why have you been lurking? What brought you here? Note: your opinions are liable to change in the face of evidence, if they are not then you are a fool. So whatever your opinion is now, you could come back in a year or so and read this thread and marvel at how little you knew. Well you will if you are at all honest with yourself.
