  What good bible wisdoms do you know?

  by Bas in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i'm not much of a bible expert myself so i was wondering what good bible/jesus wisdoms do you know?

  things that can help you in daily life by keeping them in the back of your mind.

  also i'm not looking for cliche's that everyone knows regardless if they ever opened the bible, more like philosophical wisdoms that even atheists should know.

  Mp3sharing like breaking bread

  well, i came to this when i was sharing numb/encore by jz/linkinpark with a friend of mine.

  the song actually mentions breaking the bread, but what i mean is when u share a mp3 you still have the full song, sort of like the breaking of the bread story.

  i'm also on a p2p network where i can download mp3's.

  God and the Devil are both a bit evil

  by Bas in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i'd like to think of god and satan as the same power...if you like, god can be evil and the devil can be good.

  it probably doesn't make much sense to you but i think as reality is as grey as it is (and not black/white), then probably the higher power(s) are/is too.

  i honestly believe that thinking in terms of devil/god is not very fertile thing to do.

  what do you know about philosophy and philosophers?

  i know many philosphers who were inspired by the bible in their writings, but .

  i'm more curious about the "secular" philosophers.

  .

  well i don't believe in ufo's and abductions and that sort of thing but i do believe more that there must be extraterrestrial intelligence than i believe in the existance of a god.. i used to visit this site to read about the thoughts of serious scientists on the subject, it's the us-government sponsored project of seti:.

  What does the WTBTS make of sept. 11th?

  by Bas in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  my first thought was actually that the 2 prophets had arrived for the watchtower, meaning it would collapse itself in the not to distant future.. secondly i thought the watchtower would say the twin towers are the final prophets for the coming armageddon.

  i'm not aware of any official communications on behalf of the wtbts regarding the subject, are there?

  in fact i did stay in new york in 2000 but i only walked brooklyn bridge halfway, never made it to brooklyn.
