so i was fooled by the witnesses.
what can i learn from that?
not to accept things at face value but to seek out opinion and different view points.. hence my question " do you believe man landed on the moon?.
No, the article is not the proof, the scientific study it talks about is. if you'd bothered to read it you would have worked that part out. Like i said, unless you see it with your own eyes you wont believe it.
I take it from that level of scepticism that you no longer believe in god / the bible either. If you do then you are not being true to your core world view as it doesnt allow for it.

Unless you went to the moon and saw the reflectors with your own eyes I doubt you would accept any other evidence.
There is plenty of other testable evidence they are there though. seek and ye shall find etc etc, if you can be arsed that is.
Here's one for starters:

They are real.
Get over it.
oz branch coordinator terrence o'brien opined a number of times at about 1:00:00 until about 1:15:00 of his testimony, that a dub does not need to da, they can become "inactive.".
i sent our beloved angus stewart my personal experience, as well as observations about official borg teachings.
(he replied in short order.).
I am 5 years out in my fade and yes i have my family, but all my JW "friends" dropped me. BUT, here's the but, if i do anything not approved by watchtower even now i can be disfellowshipped still and then lose my family.
So fading is slow and leads to a kind of limbo with fear of disfellowshipping always over the shoulder.
my boy is 10 and has got very interested in pocamon cards.
( a game way to complicated for me to understand) but i've also noticed it's linked to a computer game, which seems harmless enough but i also noticed advertisements for more violent games appear.. i would value people's opinion on whether, you think video games cause bad behaviour in kids.
i should mention my kid says i limit his time on these games, much more than other children's parents, and i was thinking of reevaluating that rule.. thanks.. the rebel..
It depends, is the answer.
Games have ratings much like films. He's 10, so would you let him watch adult rated films? I hope not at least until he's mid teens. Same goes for games.
The quantity of time on the other hand needs moderating.

A stone about 5mm across would send the rider flying onto their face, let alone lowered kerbs, drain covers etc etc.
The wheels need to be a lot bigger. Otherwise you'd spend your unhappy time on it looking at the ground immediately in front for tiny thnigs that will try and kill you, instead of looking ahead.

Oooh, oooh, give us the figures.
earlier this morning the royal commission website stated:.
"the royal commissions public hearing into the jehovahs witnesses will recommence in sydney on friday 14 august 2015 at 11:00am.. it is anticipated that the hearing will hear from one witness, mr geoffrey jackson, a member of the governing body of jehovahs witnesses.

Interesting...
was he ever on the witness list? If not then he's probably not showing and the hearing will continue without him
