If this was ancient Greece this sort of thinking would place you along with Socrates or Plato lol..
Here is a simpiler one:
Could God create a rock so huge he couldn't lift it? <<I once saw a stupid short film based on this
i suggest taking this slowly .
.. consider the difference between taking a poll about an upcoming election and the actual vote itself on the day of the election.. the information gathered about what the vote will be is provisional.
the vote on the day of the election is actual and official.. it is the one that counts.. now, carefully ask yourself what the specific difference--if any--there is between the poll information and the election result as an identical knowledge of.

i was thinking about how so many posters here on jwn are frustrated and frantic to help their loved ones get away from the brainwashing of jws, and how much advice is given about how to help family members and loved ones.
i considered my own leaving and that it was internal turmoil based on the teachings getting weirder and child abuse issues, to name just a few, and it made me wonder:.
did you self-awaken or were you assisted by the gentle proddings of a friend or family member?
No one else really woke me up. As early as 2007 I prayed for a job and got one.... Of course I had left a resume at the job I got lol
It was 2010 when I read books about events in the bible could NOT be found in archeology.. if that was true and Genesis was wrong then Jesus was either lying or was a myth... I decided to see if there was 100% proof of evolution... if I couldn't find it I would cast my doubts aside... I found it... ERVs and Chromosome #2....
I was awake... But i'm still trapped in.
i always wonders, and now i know.
thank you pope francis.. http://www.nytimes.com/2014/12/12/world/europe/dogs-in-heaven-pope-leaves-pearly-gate-open-.html?action=click&contentcollection=sunday%20book%20review&module=mostemailed&version=fullion=marginalia&src=me&pgtype=article.
does this include the dogs that end up on the dinner table in some cultures?
Every single referance in the bible to dogs is bad!
Exodus is funny... in it Moses uses an expression that is rendered as: "Not a dog shall move his tongue".... The Jews hated dogs it seemed.
we in the psychology/sociology field have a saying "when people protest too loud usually they are overcompensating".
i did not understand that when i first started studying psychology but now i understand it completely and it is so true.
when i hear someone constantly bashing something or someone such as gay bashing or ethnic bashing or religion bashing sometimes i wonder what are they hiding.
I think 90% of what is in the bible is flawed. 10% (Mostly in 2 Kings) might be right... but however it is good for two things: (possibly a third)
1. Historically it tells us what the writer (thus their culture) was thinking at the time and place they wrote it...
2. Western Culture and religion is based on it so it is wise to have knowledge of the work.
The possible third is that reading the bible makes one an atheist

the bible writer jude recorded an example from jesus prehuman existence.

The text about Solomon I think is the Testament of Solomon and I think he has a ring to control demons and demons build the temple for him LOL

This verse as stated is from the Assuption of Moses most likely. However the words Michael uses in the story are from Zechariah 3. <<<Read it
It's a very wierd story and Jude is full of traditions and odd stories.
