Yahweh's creation that wasn't good!
by fulltimestudent inin genesis 1, describing the creative works of yahweh, it tells us in verses 24-28 that on the sixth creative day yahweh made both domestic animals and wild beasts.
one of those two categories must have included dogs.
so yahweh may lay claim to having created dogs.

God didn't make dogs, that falls under Witness brand hyper evolution, since humans made them from wolves in 6000 years (as opposed to the ridiculously more lengthy documented time period it took humans to domesticate them). Problem solved. -

9 dead in ‘hate crime’ shooting at historic African American church in Charleston
by pronomono inhttp://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2015/06/17/white-gunman-sought-in-shooting-at-historic-charleston-african-ame-church/.
this is such a shame.
i've always thought about things like this happening because of how crazy some people are, especially in regards to religion.

"A survivor told reporters that the gunman reloaded five times during the massacre and ignored the pleas of one man to reconsider killing the worshipers.“You rape our women and you’re taking over our country — and you have to go,” the terrorist said, according to a survivor."

When will community leaders speak out against this type of violence so that things like this stop happening? -

Do or did the JW's believe dinosaurs were vegetarians?
by Crazyguy ini thought at one time or maybe they still do believe that the dinosaurs were vegetarians?

It's one of those things they conveniently ignore talking about, which they have to, because it's completely laughable to think that, scientifically, which completely kills the whole "the world is perfect, lamb will lie with the lion, original sin messed it up, spiders will apparently use webs to catch stray leaves" narrative they have going on.
It's funny trapping witnesses with that, who still believe it.
Hey, (insert animal here with something obviously and undeniably made for killing) existed back with the dinosaurs right? How was it a vegetarian? -

Why don't people in the US, UK or Euro-Citizens know anything about Jehovah's Witness Pedophile Issues and lawsuits?
by MagicMItchJensen ini know you all are aware of how little knowledge people have about jehovah's witnesses and topics men like bob bowen and women like barbara anderson tried to raise the level of public awareness that "the jehovah witness coming to your door might be a pedophile or child molester!
" what's gone wrong, has the society outsmarted the media or do people not really care what happens to young children?
if you took a survey trying to ascertain how many people walking through the grocery store, a target or upper class stores nordstroms, your going to be shocked how little people know.. if it's about the catholic church, those numbers shot through the ceiling, is this because there is no problem in the new world watchtower order or their better at damage control?

JWs are more like Protestant religions than Catholicism when it comes to that, in peoples' minds. People think of JWs as having offshoot congregations, so if abuse happens there, it's similar to abuse happening at a Baptist church - it doesn't reflect on the religion as much as that individual. Catholicism is thought of as more centralized with a direct leadership that controls the entire religion, so it reflects on the entire religion.
The Society is good at playing off of that, as they basically wash their hands of anything done in a congregation so it doesn't reflect on the whole.

All Christians Should Accept EVOLUTION
by FusionTheism init is time for christians to accept evolution, in my opinion.. there are many reasons why i think it is long overdue for all christians to finally accept what science says about evolution.
below i will show these reasons.. .
the bible tells people to pay attention to nature to see the glory of god (psalm 19; romans 1:19-20).

The Golden Rule existed long before Jesus, all across the world. And it's not what everyone follows, anyway.
Secular humanism is a better moral philosophy than those two scriptures.
See above.
There were relatively fewer atheists at that point and time, and it's irrelevant, anyway, since more Christians practiced slavery than atheists as well. -

The Flood is worse when it comes to evolution than Adam and Eve, really, since it's much closer in history, and involves some sort of hyper evolution that goes against everything we know about evolution as well as half of the known sciences on top of that. And Jesus quoted it as having happened. -

by Marvin Shilmer inso today i was asked my thoughts on the pool party incident in mcminney, texas.

How would you describe Baltimore and what would be your solution to the challenges they are facing right now? How else do you maintain law and order and provide some basic sense of civilization for a community other than by being tough on the people who terrorize it, don't want to be reasoned with and only respect power?
I linked to an article by David Simon, who was a police reporter in Baltimore, and other sourced accounts in the Baltimore thread. -That- is the description of how Baltimore is, and also why it's a cyclical system that just doesn't work. A mix of forced poverty en-large, a useless drug war, corruption in politics, a police force that allows constant assault, and a suffering inner city populace because of these things. -

I also think it's more racist and unfair to allow this crime to go unchecked and, apologies to the namby pamby folk, but when you're dealing with violent, repeat offenders and people who spit on you etc... then you should get a punch in the face now and again because people are people and the number who can keep their cool when being provoked like that day in day out is close to zero so get real, the claims of "they should be more professional" are hollow and unrealistic to me. How about people be civil in return? How about YOU try to do the job for a week. It's a testament to the professionalism and patience that so few people are shot!
So you're saying that police -should- assault suspected drug dealers and loiterers as part of the process then? IMO, that's seriously messed up. Especially considering the history. The government creates the problem and then they solve it by beating it into submission. Awesome.
If that's where people come from, the kind of opinions stated in these types of threads become a lot more clear. -
