a nearby star, ross 128, about 11 light years away, seems to be putting out some rather remarkable radio waves.
discovered by the arecibo observatory in puerto rico (the one shown in the move contact) other observatories like the allen telescope array are set to begin observations in the next couple of days to make sure the signal really is coming from interstellar space and isn't caused by instrument malfunction or radio waves bouncing off satellites.
it could be anything at this point (but very-very unlikely aliens).
Now we need to build a wall around the earth
WaeO: no need for a wall stretching from the four corners of the Earth, once the aliens read wt literature, and realize that Saran is on this planet, for heavens sake, they will give us a wide berth, SETI awake!

who will get the property of jehovah's witnesses?.
the sect "jehovah's witnesses", recognized as an extremist organization and banned in russia, owned real estate worth 4 billion rubles.
Who got the properties of the formerly state owned USSR assets? connections connections. How did WT get these assets? connections. give it back to the people's republic of russia, after all the banned literature advocated their destruction, and seizure of all old world properties.
just watching this video about a bethel member, single again - gives advice at morning worship.he tries to convince young 16 year old girls who visit bethel and eat in the cafeteria to marry him.he offers the full blessings as wife of a prince in the new world and gives arguments that speakfor a fast decision... shocking stupidy.

in another video of ex-bethelite (how women are treated) a bethel elder is mentioned who talked to brothers at the table and gave advice abouth marriage and said that it would be the best to marry a women when is as young and pretty as possible, (at 8:45) so you have the possibilty to train her and to mode her in to what you want and get her used in the roles you set for her..... other bethelits made big errors and married older women 24,25.women that would have their own concepts of what bethel or marriage should be.
The world is a shining example for JWs, look at Macron the French president with a 24 year older wife, Brigitte, not Bardot, but close. Shape matters though , as even Trump noted.
so, blame evolution for the eye based judgement of men for their ladies.
strong family ties & family values did not matter to jesus:.
- a person must hate his or her family and themselves in order to be jesus’ disciple (matthew 10:37; luke 14:26).
- jesus will give a big reward to those who forsake their family, abandon their home, leave their family behind for him.
by saying "The one that keeps looking at a woman.....has committed adultery", he discouraged people from getting married. If either the looker or the lookee is married, it is off to gehenna.
i met with a jw today and they showed me a picture of the new style kh build.
the building was located in a ***strip mall**** in florida.
i'm always amazed (and disgusted) at the new and inventive ways they think of expanding their real estate holdings.. along that vein...i recently discovered this: .
commercial all the way, affordable, always well maintained, by free labour. in Florida, where?

thank you for posting that link. Brave doctors to take on recalcitrant blood refusers at all. In hindsight different procedures could have been followed from the start, but an undetected , unknown abnormality of the Uterus proved to be the achilles heel.
sad loss, wt probably just as correct in this doctrine as in their dating.

I hope you are being ironic! cofti
one can not take any of this stuff seriously. reply to a fool according to his foolishness?

Those scriptures legitimise the "Pioneer, sacrifice all for wt" propaganda in almost every wt "study". are we not glad there are mitigating scriptures like Paul's " Wives, be obedient to your husbandly owners" ?
http://www.christiantimes.com/article/jehovahs-witnesses-consider-european-court-appeal-after-russian-supreme-court-upholds-ban-on-sect/72529.htm.
july 19, 2017the jehovah's witnesses expressed its plans to appeal to the european court of human rights in strasbourg after the russian supreme court upheld a ruling that banned the sect and declared it as an "extremist" organization.
"we plan to appeal this at the european court of human rights as soon as we can.
It is a replay of the Canada / Quebec situation, where strong arm tactics within a sympathetic population, was overruled by a more liberally minded larger entity. and
The European Union is liberally minded, bent on destroying itself. Will Russia mount a defence , using all the ammunition that The RC in Australia and revealing sources about WBTS Inc. practises could provide? Poor JWs caught in the middle do not deserve this hassle. Lives being destroyed while many JW profiteers prosper.
when i first became a witness, i always found the teaching about jesus being the arch angel michael hard to swallow.
i did however believe that jesus pre existed as a master worker alongside god (the first of his creation).. but now everything is brought into question having watched anthony buzzard explain why jesus could not have pre existed as it is impossible to pre exist yourself.
also the fact that it all sounds contradictory to suggest, he was already alive millions of years before he was transferred to mary's womb to be born as a human - the son of man?.
If the biographical Jesus, walking on water, resurrecting 12 year old young ladies by laying on top of them is real, it is only a small step to extend the fantasy into the distant past. He must have been watching while the snake talked, water lapped over Mt Everest, Satan showed him all the kingdoms on a flat Earth. The near eternal, invisible part is easy.
