    Jon Preston - "If the bible said two plus two equals 5 or 2 how would u respond, believers?"

    JW believers would respond with, "what does the Watchtower say?"

    Londo111 - "Obviously, fundamentalists would respond 2 + 2 = 5 and unfortunately, they have the loudest voices."

    Took a long time, but everybody else has finally figured out that even though the fundies may be the loudest, they're a pathetic minority.

    Hmmm; maybe they're the loudest because they're a pathetic minority.

    2+2=4,4objects fit into a space made specifically for those objects.If you make 5 objects fit into that space , means you have distorted the accommodating space to make them fit. That distortion in GB WBTS JW speak equals troof , didn't you know!!!

    I view the Bible as an assortment of information from Hebrew mythology orally communicated from generation to generation until written (e.g., Genesis), fables for living a moral life (e.g., Job), Jewish rules for living (e.g., Leviticus), chronological and biased accounts of Israelites' history (i.e., Kings), teachings of Jesus Christ and accounts of his life (e.g., Mathew through John) to accounts of spreading Christianity through the Middle East and then to Europe.

    Is all of the Bible factual? No.

    Can the Bible's message be missintrepreted? Yes.

    Did Jesus Christ warn his followers of following religious leaders? Yes.

    Did Jesus Christ advise his followers to intrepret the scriptures using God's greatist commandments? Yes.

    Therefore some people will read the Bible and think that 2 + 2 = 4, and others will think that 2 + 2 = 5. It really depends on what people believe.

    I prefer to view the Bible as a hodgepodge of information that can be used to inspire people - hopefully to live a more moral and happier life.

    Peace be with you and everyone, who you love,

    better yet post a claim the bible says that you compare to your analogy and we'll let you know if we believe it's true or not.

    Jesus took 5 loaves + 2 fishes and added them up to make several thousands of meals. It didn't happen of course.

    By the way, is English your first language?

    keyser soze-

    I will do more than merely suggest that the WT pulled that equation out of their ass.

    I must insist that the only source of material is their ass.

    It is a big ass with much kaka.
