New moons, like rainbows, are a sign from our CREATOR, which enables us to observe HIS special 'appointed times.' When you see it, simply acknowledge it by looking up to heavens and quietly saying, "Thank you YAHWEH, for showing me the signs" - the Angels will be watching.
Sometime in the future, the new moon sighting will be a global monthly announcement from Jerusalem, but until then you are on you own, Isa.66:23.
It is important to note that watching these signs is not considered astrology because we do not use it to derive any personal destinies. It is used to determine the universal "appointed times" (Gen.1:14; Ps.104:19).

Of course, it would have nothing to do with the moon orbiting the Earth, would it?new moon?
OK, I'll bite. Appointed times for what exactly? You've explained that a fairly common phenomenon is actually a complex communication system to another world, but you've failed to mention what those signals actually mean.
Oh, an in other news, you're a nutcase!
What are "appointed times" and why are they enclosed in quotation marks?
Just took a look at their website, it's a fundie moon-cult! The madness never ends.
by the way, Tiny Bulcher ftw
Sorry to drift off topic.
As for our new guest who wants to save everyone on the forums, I suggest someone set up a temporary new board with three moderators until Yahweh returns and take time to bump the link from yBoards to the "refugee camp."
I'd post this in the forums myself but I can't remember my password and I can't create a new account . Remember, maniswicked can't last forever. As annoying as he is, this won't stop FSTDT, this is only a temporary inconvenience.
Apparently the modern calendar is based on pagan counting systems.
Another quote from the site:
"Satan is very sneaky, he does not want you to know that it is the first order of business in learning when to observe the Holy periods."
You're fucking insane.
"Lunatics" indeed.
n/a, every Muslim in the world agrees with you, since they observe the lunar year. "Thank you ALLAH, for showing me the signs"...the announcement is usually made by the local muezzin.
Rainbows do not follow a schedule, sorry. Even though they are roundish like the moon, there is no other correlation.
My natal Mars insists that I smite you with the ClueBat, just out of general principle.
It's strange that if the new moon is a sign from God, it occurs every 29 days, 12 hours, 44 minutes and 2.878 seconds. You'd think He'd stop bothering now that we have atomic clocks. And what happened when it rained before God created the rainbow? Was the molecular structure of water molecules different?
If it's a sign from God, you'd think that he/she/it would make a more spectacular miracle, huh? Besides, all of those things are explained through science and are replicable. No god needed.
@John - It didn't rain on earth before the flood according to many fundies, so there were no rainbows.
Just repeating what I hear...
Phhhht, the moon was one of the earliest indicators that the Earth was round.
What did the babble have to say about the moon --- oh yerrrh - it's a frigging light source to rule the night - shame it rock up during the day too.
Sounds like you're committing a healthy dose of idolatry there! Careful, Mr. Fundie Moon-Cultist, and let me remind you of Exodus 20:4:
That includes the moon!

...so - seeing as it's the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, you'll not only be praying to Mecca five times a day, but will be fasting from dawn to dusk eh, n/a...?
[/smartarse] >:D
...meanwhile, we Bronies look up at the moon and think of Her Alicornness Luna:

...whereupon we exclaim in our best Royal Canterlot Voice: 'The Fun Has Been Doubled!'
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
