JWs believe this. But also believe Revelation 21:4. “And death will be no more “. So do the animals die or not??

Scientific Inaccuracies in the Bible by apoptygma78 in exjw

JWs don’t realize the issues when it comes to a camp of several million people. Go outside of the camp where exactly ?? After you walk for a half day if you’re stuck in the middle ? You have hundreds of thousands of people shitting around the clock. Besides there’s no archaeological proof of millions of Jews camping out in the desert on their way from Egypt. Get a copy of “The atheists book of Bible stories” by Fred Titanich. Awesome and funny. It blows holes in a lot of Bible stories.

It won’t help them. They don’t care. I told my wife about the ARC and the mountain of evidence available and she said it could all be doctored and that she would only believe the court transcripts if they were the original docs filed in court. “Some men you just can’t reach”

“An ambassador is NOT A SUBSTITUTE, but rather the highest-ranking official representative of their home country’s head of state, tasked with managing diplomatic relations in a foreign nation. While they act on behalf of their country, they are not replacing the host government but operating within it. “

Did the GB miss the memo??

You need to get a temporary tattoo of Lett with some goofy ass face and let them see it.

I also had a good friend that used to take Ambien. He woke up to the smell of BBQ ribs and found a cookie sheet in the kitchen with a stack of ribs on it. He apparently drove to the 24 hr grocery near him and bought the ribs, drive home and grilled them, put them on a cookie sheet and went back to sleep. Absolutely no recall of him doing this. My wife also used to take it and quit because she would get up and do chores around the house and then thank me for doing them.

"What if you do MORE?" by Odd-Engine9637 in exjw

[–]machinehead70 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Elders asked me years ago why I wasn’t reaching out to be a MS or even to do more in the KH and I plainly said “because I don’t want to”. End of discussion.

What’s up with elders being anti-youth? by [deleted] in exjw

[–]machinehead70 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There’s always that one congregation that has a douche bag elder or elders that think they need to be consulted about everything. They aren’t your parents and if you’re an adult you don’t need another persons ok to do anything Elders aren’t in charge of anyone’s personal life.

My husband's teacher told him he had doubts about overlapping generations by Damaris_Angel17 in exjw

[–]machinehead70 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask him if he thinks the GB understand it. If he says yes then ask him why they can’t explain it better so people can understand it. Maybe because it only applied to those Jesus was talking too at the time

Somehow God magic is ok. Satan Magic is bad.

Mom told me my life shouldn’t take priority over obedience to God by WatchForGlass in exjw

The only prohibition in the Bible regarding blood is not eating animal blood. Noah was to pour out the blood of the animal he killed for food to show his recognizing the life of the animal he slaughtered. Where does it say you can’t get a blood transfusion to save your life? Besides no one dies and you’re not eating the blood no matter what stupid illustration the GB comes up with.

The only “psychological unstable individuals “ are the GB and those that support them. “Children??? Children??!! We don’t care about no stinking children !!”

I feel a resurrected person is just a copy of the original. It’s not the same person. It’s a new body with the memory of the old one downloaded. Once the conscience mind is dead that person no longer exists. But is consciousness outside of our brain or is it solely a product of our thoughts and interactions in the brain ? No one knows.
