Going deeper into JW stupidities
by ClassAvenger inok, i am totally frustrated with these jehovah witnesses.
they drove me out of the limit today when they said that satan was not cast out of heaven and sent to earth until 1914. im like, "what the hell???
" what is their freaking problem.

asexuality
by peacefulpete ini was reading about apomixis, (reproduction without the interaction of gametes) and found some interesting things.
dandelions for instance produce flowers and pollen that are useless to the plant.
the flowers are evolutionary vestiges from ancetral plants that reproduced the usual way.

$$ Cultivate a Giving Spirit Toward the WT Society - 11/1/2003 WT $$
by Funchback inthe article found on page 26 gives some biblical examples of why one should cultivate a giving spirit.
then it has a subheading entitled 'jehovah - the greatest giver' which leads to the final obvious subheading 'showing gratitude to jehovah', which really translates to: 'give us (the wts) your money'.
so, what ways do you think the society encourages one to give?

Refuting Faithful Slave Myth Accusations.
by integ inagain, playing devils' advocate here.
i brought up to a staunch witness relative some reasons the annointed remnant, or however she wishes to regard them, are not the faithful and discreet slave mentioned in matthew.
i brought up the fact that practically all the core doctrines that the witnesses were teaching in 1919 when the "master arrived and chose the watchtower as his instrument" would be considered as apostasy today, by the witnesses.

Circle of the earth
by donkey inbible believers are so proud of the fact that the bible talks of the "circle of the earth" and try to use this to say that the bible is inspired because it obviously was ahead of it's time in establishing that the earth is not flat.. congratulations.
umm...umm...ok now then why does daniel 4:11 say the tree grew all the way into heaven?
and when satan decided to tempt jesus he took him to a high place and he could see all the kingdoms of the earth...... now unless jesus and satan could see around corners...how do you explain this?

Who really belives that there is a Satan
by Singing Man inis there any real evidence that there is a satan and a bunch of nasty demons?
it seems to be implanted on into our hard drives of our minds through the bible and religions litature.. it seems to me if the bible told us the moon was made of swiss cheese and religious litature said pigs could fly most humans would agree at once.
one mans opinion.

Reasons for Intense Feelings?
by robhic ini read the thread that beryblue started above and some of the responses made me wonder.
most people responded regarding loving jehovah out of fear.
i am not now nor ever was a jw but these responses were similar to something a friend said the other day (and other times, too).. she is a jw since 2000 and is 42 years old with a disease that keeps her homebound and quite frequently bed-bound.

10/1/2003 WT: Does God Really Care? Well, DOES HE???
by Funchback insome highlights...
' there are two photos: 1) a silhouette of a soldier laying flat on his stomach pointing an automatic weapon and 2) a colorless photo of at least 17 children pressed up against barbed-wire in (i assume) a nazi concentration camp.
this cover would lead a person to conclude that god really does not care.
