fish, the poisonous Japanese blowfish, the Japanese, mammals, primates, hominids, and finally, men.
So.. Am I to understand you do not classify the Japanese with men?
I hope you feel better soon.

What does this have to do with the Watchtower Society?
Why would anyone even attempt to clarify your idiotic tirade since you seem to be to lazy to look at the real answers?

I really get a kick out of the whole mindset of the JW whiners on this forum. Any post which slanders REAL Christians or Christianity draws rave reviews so you are doing nothing but wasting bandwidth.
Let's 'put the shoe on the other foot', what do YOU believe in?

Big Jim,
I really enjoyed reading that. Good content - well written.
I wanted to add a little to the end of the story, to wit (as Rutherford used to say),
Even though God was irritated with Satand and the demons, he let them hang out in heaven, God's home, for thousands of years. Finally, God got fed up and threw them all out and sent them down to earth. There Satan and the demons caused all kinds of trouble. Then God got fed up with everythig on the earth and destroyed all the bad people, which was almost everybody. God must have been on a learning curve because he figured out a way to do this without wiping most of the animals too, as he did with the flood. Of course, he had promised people he would never use a flood again, but had a lot of other methods of destruction up his sleeve (assuming God has sleeves). Now, you would think that with this next round of destuction, that God would get rid of Satan once and for all. No, he decides to play with him and the humans. He puts puts Satan in jail for a thousand years with no chance of parole. He then lets him loose on the people again before he finally smashes Satan to bits and all the folks who fall for Satan's trickery. After that, everybody lives happily ever after ...I think.

Hi DAB,
Will it be 'pretty darn cool' when you kneel before the 'Ancient of Days'?
Think about it, you ain't immortal but your soul is.

Do you feel better now Big Jim? Take deep breaths, it will be all right.
Big Jim,
Your post was very entertaining and clever. Most of the points were valid. Also, Larc's.
I have two more things to say about it, though; not that you asked for critiques.
One is that it doesn't accurately reflect JWs' beliefs on the point of hell, Jesus being God, and the stoning of the adulterous woman (that portion is not in all ancient mss).
Second point is that it is polemic and angers people who may listen to rationale, but not ridicule.
Please don't get me wrong as I am pretty atheistic and evolutionist. It's just understandable how you drew blood with some of the religionists on the board.
