What the actual fuck? I love that they're working off translations provided by the JWs, no possible issues there right? But seriously, they're working with vampires.

Adam could have put Jehovah In Paradox!
by JohnTron72 ini'm going to be the first and throw this out there for others but, from careful study of the scriptures i've found a loophole that even adam who was perfect at the time missed!
i'm sure everyone has heard the conundrum about ,"can god create a rock he can't lift?
" and if he can't create one he can't lift, then god cannot do everything" well that doesn't really matter since we know jehovah says himself he cannot lie right?

Doesnt god blame Satan? Talk about passing blame. Yikes.
Unconditional love is a made up concept by men but a vengeful, petulant god that kills his creation is real. Okay. I'd rather live in man's fairy tale then than yours. Yours sucks.
Again, why are the kindergarteners in your previous ramble more moral than your god?

If you want to simplify the fact about why God put the tree in the garden, think about this. God gave Adam and Eve everything on Earth to enjoy.
Is this the same shortsighted god that couldn't even figure out on his own that Adam needed an Eve?
If you were God and gave man and woman everything to the eye on Earth freely, how would you know they truly were appricitive of the gift?
Are you telling me you can't give your kids something and tell if they appreciate it without threatening them with something else? Somehow I've been able to appreciate the good in things without having something else withheld. What a warped view of life. I once met someone for lunch, someone I really had never known, and they bought my lunch. I thought that was awesome even without them holding another meal for me at another restaurant that I wasn't to partake of. I mean really, does this make sense on any level?
Man through the centuries proven they can't get along without God.
Actually man has proven through the centuries that having god makes them fight and kill each other.
If you ask a kindergartner they would tell you the answer: Just stop fighting Wars and stop harming each other.
Will you kindly tell your god the same so that he doesn't have to slaughter everyone? Or are kindergarten kids more moral than him?

I have as much faith in Jehovah as I do in your ability to find the "enter" key on your keyboard, oh great wall of text.
By the way, didn't Jehovah choose to harden the heart of the Pharaoh? It's almost like he can indeed look forward, as things were prophecies that supposedly came true as well, he just has selective forward view, and clearly isn't as smart as you as you found a way to outfox him. Doesn't sound like much to worry about to me.

Since it's all a fairy tale, there are really no limits to what Adam could have done. It was all left to the imagination of the writer and how he wanted the story to go. I'm not sure why Adam didn't just get on a talking donkey and ride off into the sunset, past the burning bushes, across the Red Sea, and go start a new life in The Shire with the hobbits.

I've had a Facebook group for just over a year. It's a lot of work. Doing a forum that you have to build and maintain and update for two decades? Hats off to you Simon. A lot of groups and forums have come and gone. Longevity says something about your character. Good for you.

Rec'd a letter from my Dad - need some advice...
by Fadeaway3pointer infader here - last meeting was in autumn 2005. lurker on this site and others.
not one to get all controversial.. typical situation, pretty much a born in and left the church at age 38 and never looked back.. i'm 53 now, parents getting older - late 70s but very active, dad is still an elder.. parents, in laws, brother and brother-in-law still uber active jws.. my family (wife and 2 adult children) out since 2005.. we have stayed close to our parents - we have treaded religion lightly and have had a pretty good relationship and have kept our personal lives and beliefs/opinions separated from them.
this was intentional - as we love them and do not want anything to cause shunning since they are getting older and want to be there for them and we respect their beliefs.. got this letter today.

I would like to point out though that you don't have to agree to not respond. That's their rule, not yours, and basically condemning you and then asking you not to respond as if somehow they were the victim is cowardly. I would absolutely respond in any way I wanted. Knowing full well, of course, that they won't listen so I wouldn't try to save them, but I'd be kind while firmly showing them how cruel and messed up what they're doing is and how monstrous shunning is. I would put the blame firmly back on them.
I don't think silence is good. That's exactly what they want. Jehovah's Witnesses want you to feel shame and slink away. Why? So they don't have to face reality. I'd make them see what they're doing. In fact, that's something that woke me up. And since I've been shunned I have walked right up to family I've seen while out and said hi. It makes them shun me to my face, something that is difficult for them, and I want them to feel that. Why should they be awful and have it easy? Easy is often synonymous with enabling and I won't give tacit approval to that behavior.
