Searcher, I do not believe we die because of sin bsw. But for the sake of playing by the book (bible). If the wages (or price) of sin is death, once I pay it, (and that is a serious price), do I have to pay again? like 1000 years of slave labour (special pioneering) on and on?

The Ultimate Conversion
by Etude inone thing that surprised me shortly after joining this site was the number of individuals who, after experiencing the deception of being a jw and the hypocrisy of the “truth”, switched to being catholic or “born-again” evangelists.
it seemed to me like jumping from the hot pan into the fire.. i don’t want to piss anyone off for his or her choices.
i feel everyone is free to believe what they may.

Con- version. being conned into another, or ultimate version (of religion), like the choice of the Flora vs Fauna approach of the Cain & Abel brothers in the snake story.
take time to let life, the spectacular universe speak for itself.

Why is the white race so different?
by Crazyguy inwhat i'm saying is the white race is the only one that has a verity of eye and hair colors , so what gives?
is it that this race was influenced genetically by a group of pre humans that didn't mix with other races?

May be it is not about race , but about climate, The white north, snow country. Makes you thrifty, strive and thrive. It also makes melanin redundant, a liability.
the Texas answer bsw. The junior geniuses: not white. (East Indian/Chinese I believe).

There is a story right now about a couple of kids in Texas, one of them just finished college at 14, going for their PHD's now, guess their skin colour?
Who will deny that advances were concentrated in the cold north? Just reading "The timeline book of science " from the discovery of fire to the electronic age, Ochoa & Corey.

An alternative theory is that only blondes are dumb enough to stay in northern Europe. bohm:
yeah, and from the Orkneys to the Alps, the Caucasians created a fantastic Civilisation that is responsible for most of the advances we have seen (with Chinese, others working in the tandem, unknown).
Now, the others, having basked in the sun, tanning in the process, are streaming into the northern wastelands to take over. Dark surfaces , skin, radiate heat more efficiently, so bundle up, and over millionenennia, will that lighten the skin? Try cross breeding instead.

Bertrand Russell's Teapot orbit as an Syllogism.
All inner solar Planet orbits are spaced ~.3 AU apart ( Mercury .4; Venus .7; Earth 1.0 )
The next orbit possible for my invisible teapot is .3 AU further out, therefore at 1.3 AU (halfway to Mars ~1.6 ) therefore:
My undetectable china teapot is an inner solar planet.
Beware of any wt invisible heavenly claims. If Bertrand can do it, Charles T can. (the tea can).

Apostasy endorsed in this yesterday's Watchtower Study
by doubtfull1799 in“there may be occasions when it would be good for us to reconsider a choice or decision.
it could be when the prevailing circumstances change.
jehovah altered his decision at times when circumstances changed.

They make a sly reference to a vow (as compared to a mere decision) that has to be obeyed, par 18: "-- he expects us to follow through on other decisions ( like vows? dedication?) that we make [made] on his guidance.
strange that wt will disfellowship people for disagreeing on doctrinal decisions , they made, that they later change, but will not automatically reinstate those that had it right in the first place,
The gist is, if you make the decision to allow wt to make doctrinal, prophetic decision for you, don't blame them for you being so gullible.

Bertrand Russell sumed up religious belief with his teapot:
jl: It is telling that Russell (not the wt thinker), would pitch the analogy of a teapot at 1.3 AU against the possibility of a creator, that little ~.6 AU space for the perhaps 50 billion lightyears extent of the universe. (and the creator would be beyond that).
Oddly enough there would be a theoretical opening at 1.3 AU orbit for a body, the way there is a 30 AU exception opening for Neptune in the Bode scheme of doubling planetary spacings. Russell's ruse? anyway,
talking of argumentation,
Belittling the grandeur of the Creation is not bolstering the strength of a "the universe created itself " argument .
