    ,

    Excellent answer! The illustration is way too simplistic. It does not take into consideration the struggles of the life of humans.

    I don't feel chased and have seen nothing behind me threatening my life. I have stopped being superstitious and deal with reality now that I've grown into an adult.

    I would answer : I can see your point and you're probably right, but what next ? are you trying to say that the WTS is interested in helping me escape from the fox ? I'm afraid this is where we start differring, the WTS couldn't care less about me, they work at preserving their stakes in this "system of things" and to their own survival from collapse, not mine.

    Quote:

    The rabbit ran as he had never run before. He ran under fences, ... he even ran through the culvert under the road. The fox ran right behind the rabbit, so close that several times the rabbit felt the fox's hot breath on his tail.

    ------------

    The fox was there to ambush the rabbit, and knew rabbit would travel past the hiding spot. But what was the rabbit doing there? The fences and culvert imply that he was not in his natural habitat and that he was there to benefit from another's labor. Even if the rabbit was just taking a short-cut it was someplace it shouldn't have been enough times that the fox could wait in hiding for it.

    Neither of them should have been trespassing!

    I am an atheist and god-damn (pardon the pun) proud of it. Therefore, I don't believe in Satan. I do though, believe in foxes.

    Now that I'm out, I find all these illustration so funny. I view it like having believed in the story of Cinderella. Upon figuring out for myself that this was just a story, all my friends and family stopped talking to me because I can't believe in fairytales.

    Be weary of the power of mind control. Now that I'm out, I can see how powerful it is.

    Is that the same rabbit that raced, but got beat by a turtle?

    Billy,

    I was thinking the same thing. The turtle did the same thing to Bugs Bunny. There ended up being 10 turtle taking turns running ahead of BB on the road. BB had to pay up for losing the bet with Cecil Turtle. Loved that episode.

    So, then, it depends, not upon the one wishing nor upon the one running, but upon God, who has mercy.

    Here you are TM, this should the trick.

    Matthew 10:28

    Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.

    Or this

    Luke 12:4-5

    "But I will warn you whom to fear: fear the One who, after He has killed, has authority to cast into hell; yes, I tell you, fear Him!

    But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear him who, after the killing of the body, has power to throw you into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear him.

    In short, fear the Creator, not the created. Do not fear the first death but the second. That is what the bible says so I think that should give them food for thought.

    All the best,

    Stephen

    How do you know I'm the rabbit? Maybe I'm the fox chasing something I'm never going to catch, like say, paradise on earth.
