Why are JWs so against debate
by enigma1863 inif the jws follow proverbs 27:17 they should not be afraid of any tension or friction.. in order for iron to sharpen iron you need pressure, tension friction and a bit of heated debate..

Excuse me for going off topic but the irony is too much to bear.
I see 4 bald headed men with one that is half bald. So what? Russell is supposed to have said in the book The Finished Mystery:
"A study of the foregoing leads to the conclusion that the various churches must have been founded by bald-headed men, and the smoke being unable to find its way out through their scalps naturally had to come out of their mouths!"
Please don't ask for an explanation. Here it is.

Religious explanation for suffering vs church shootings
by Simon inwhenever there is a discussion about the "godness" of god and whether he can be described as both "good" and "all powerful" given that he could avoid untold suffering and death for millions of people in earthquakes, floods, tidal waves and other disasters we are often given the same answer:.
"you don't know why he lets it happen but he has a plan".. bleh.
often they throw in some snippets that suggest the people may actually deserve it for not praying to the right god or not praying hard enough.. of course it's easy to dismiss the death of all those faceless unknown people.. so, i present to you a new thought experiment for the righteous to grapple with.. i dare you to use the same arguments to explain the deaths of the people in the recent church shooting.. were they not praying hard enough?

It's all mom's (Eve) fault for fooling daddy (Adam) with that tasty fruit. God goes along with all the consequences of the original sin and allows for hideous things to happen so that we may be eternally grateful when we get to heaven and live happily ever after. -

WT April 15, 2015... Odd first paragraph
by StarTrekAngel inflipping thru the pages of the april 15 wt study edition, i bumped into something that strikes me as odd.
not that the wt never publishes odd things, but usually such comes in the form of misapplied scripture or hidden second meanings.
i've never paid attention before but to me this is the first time i see a whole paragraph with no bible verses to read.. in the article tiled "always trust in jehovah!

Nero's burning of Christians and their being accused of being "haters of mankind" is a matter of historical record. It is questioned though that they may be exaggerations.
Also the English to Spanish translation from "...accused of hating mankind..." to "...se les acusa de odiar a la gente..." is accurate although it would have been better to replace "gente" (people) with "humanidad" (humanity).

Christians not knowing the Bible
by Viviane inlast night a young man in a bar struck up a conversation with me.
our town is having our pride parade soon and he brought it up, the bible and how it's against the bible.
me being me, i said that i couldn't care less that it was against the bible and that it was a horrible guide for morality anyway.

With reference to the OP's title, "Christians not knowing the Bible" I should bring up that not all Christians are alike. You have liberal Christians, moderate Christians and conservative Christians.
It is conservative Christians that tend to be more knowledgeable about the Bible while liberals are not. I'm sure that the person who was at the bar with Viviane was a liberal.

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?

Creationists definitely believe that the dinosaurs were vegetarian even to the point where Tyrannosaurus Rex supposedly had sharp teeth to enable it to eat palm trees. When this vegetarianism ended is up to the creationist. It was either after Adam and Eve sinned bringing evil into all of creation or after the flood - assuming they survived the flood.
Also, their official stand on the creative days was that they were exactly 7,000 years long. Now they're simply wishy washy on the details.
