  Hip Replacement Surgery

  by titch in

  1. social
  2. physical

  i'm not really sure where to put this post or "thread", so i'll just put it in the physical activities area.

  i just want to know if anyone on the forum has any experience with having a hip replacement surgery done on them, or perhaps a friend or relative.

  what was your experience, if it was you?

  Finkel stein (RIP) : I would get a second opinion to make sure that's the problem, if it is reconfirmed I would go ahead with the surgery.

  I had the operation on one side ~3 years ago. Last month the others side started to ache too, But the mobility was not affected like in the longstanding development in the right leg. so: I made a doctor's appointment to get the X rays done to send me off to the surgeon, eager to be painless, but before the date came up, the pain had vanished ***. so, make sure,

  Because other problems might be becoming to the fore with the trauma. Mine was fine, have passed into my 10 th decade since then, active every day.

  *** It was a natural healing, how do we know/? because Armageddon obviously has not passed, despite the repeated "soon" wt inc promises.

  Maths Virus 1914

  by Anna Marina in

  this is my latest video.

  it is part 1 of a series that reveals the mathematical trickery watchtower uses to con people about the 1914 doctrine.

  it takes a radically different approach to that of carl olof jonsson who dealt with dates.. this video focusses on how watchtower misuses the numbers in scriptures and creates a mental fog that prevents people from understanding and therefore prevents them from challenging.. the full title of the video is maths virus - revealing the antivirus to 1914. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=llkmrul3afg.

  It is Almighty God Himself who has done this. --AM

  Since we created our concept of The creator in our local image, and we like numerology, why would he not like wise?

  Adultery, Divorce, Remarry

  by azl0058 in

  2. relationships

  my brother (who is a witness) has been married for 8 years.

  he and his wife (also a witness) got married young, but he never really tried in the marriage, but she also lost his trust early on.

  he says that it was his fault though because he pushed her away.. anyways, he met this new girl (not a witness) and told his wife that he wanted to separate.

  It used to be, that a guilty mate, after a divorce, had to have the wronged party agree to a re-marriage, if the love birds got married anyway, violating wt policies, would find them put quickly on the outside.

  There was a very handsome jw male, not even daring to date, (a precursor to marriage in wt think) , because the jealous and clearly hurt, now divorced 'sister' never forgave him, used the clause to cause his pining away.

  Jesus speaks in third person

  by menrov in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i stumbled on john 17:1,2 which reads in net version:.

  17 when jesus had finished saying these things, he looked upward to heaven and said, “father, the time has come.

  glorify your son, so that your son may glorify you— 2 just as you have given him authority over all humanity, so that he may give eternal life to everyone you have given him.. if jesus had a close relation with his father, would you not expect to read something like this:.

  If Jesus was a JW, as wt claims, ne would have used the name, as done by wt followers now, not the term "father".

  You get the sense though, how far we are from the unfathomable difference between a creator of it all and us.

  H:

  Yeah, the father ("Jesus" did not use the name bse) has put time in his own jurisdiction (as even Einstein found out) and any one trying to "change time and seasons," or make change, or $s out of it, is in trouble, troubled.

  Its not my fault

  by incognito2014 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  assume for a minute that god created everything.

  there was nothing before him and everything is because of him.

  every single thing in the universe he is directly responsible for.. somehow the good stuff we should thank him for but the bad stuff is nothing to do with him, it is our fault.. this world that he created that was “good” has turned in to a right shitshow but despite being absolutely responsible for it from start to finish it is not his fault and in fact he has somehow turned this round so that instead of being to blame he is the person who is going to sort the problems and we should be thankful..

  Look at the google image right now, depicting art of the earliest humans. They already were bound fascinated by the animal kingdom. consider,

  on balance there is much more joy than terror, Thode species that thrive, play the balance card well.

  I am deeply grateful for the medics that provide painkillers for me. Nature has the already built in, for the horror moments. as I know Would you think plants will give up blooming, because most seeds, fruit end up being eaten?

  accept and embrace what we have,

  there can not be survival of the fittest, no fit place to live for some life tp end, all the time.

  The present is all the time we have. for now.

  Time, times and half a time - nerd time

  by Anony Mous in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so, the famous 607 calculation to 1914 involves the above prophecy.

  the common explanation is that time is one unit, times is an unsubstantiated number of units.. to prove you can make it say any date, we must write it as a formula:.

  date = t + nt + 0.5t where n >= 2. so simplified:.

  Jesus-------What were you thinking!

  most of the sermon on the mount, matthew 5-7 - is bizarre, vague or barbaric.

  it actually smacks stupidity and not wisdom..

  if you lust after a woman, you’ve committed adultery (thought crime) .

  like the song said:" just one look, that's all it took." even the 10 commandments stipulates " not even to desire your neighbor's wife.

  and "Jesus" hammered that home when he revealed, that even the offending eye would have you end up in gehenna.

  I would be nice to know that the hidden rocks in the congregation would keep their adulterous eyes off your trophy wife, or worse, your young daughter.
