  "a 9-year-old girl learning to fire a submachine gun accidentally killed her instructor at a shooting range when the weapon recoiled over her shoulder, according to arizona authorities.

  another reason to go against those arguing that young children should be taught how to use guns.

  a question or two

  what if the god of the bible is only just that, the god of those who wrote the words?

  how has your understanding or interpretation of the "absolute" truth varied in your life?

  is the base argument only against one interpretation?

  how do you interpret what you don't understand?

  Is Faith Immoral?

  by Coded Logic in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  when people willfully believe something without evidence, or contrary to evidence, are they neglecting thier moral responsibility?

  so many people say faith is a virtue but i just can't comprehend why anyone would think that.

  I Offer You This Choice

  by simon17 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  suppose the following choice were offered you, and you had to choose one or the other.

  which would you pick (and perhaps why):.

  1) you can continue living your life as it is, die when you might, and that's that.. 2) you can instead agree to die in 1 year in exchange for this: you will be granted access to the entire past and future history of intelligent life in the universe.

  King Arthur: Brother Maynard, bring out the Holy Hand Grenade!

  [Holding the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch]

  King Arthur: How does it... um... how does it work?

  Sir Lancelot: I know not, my liege.

  King Arthur: Consult the Book of Armaments.

  Brother Maynard: Armaments, chapter two, verses nine through twenty-one.

  Cleric: [reading] And Saint Attila raised the hand grenade up on high, saying, "O Lord, bless this thy hand grenade, that with it thou mayst blow thine enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy." And the Lord did grin. And the people did feast upon the lambs, and sloths, and carp, and anchovies, and orangutans, and breakfast cereals, and fruit bats, and large chu...

  Brother Maynard: Skip a bit, Brother...

  Cleric: And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it.

  Brother Maynard: Amen.

  All: Amen.

  King Arthur: Right. One... two... five!

  Galahad: Three, sir.

  King Arthur: Three!

  I'm not sure which is worse.. a superior arrogant, smug 'I'm right your wrong' atheist or a superior arrogant smug 'I'm right your wrong' Christian. Both extremes are unpleasant

  Agreed

  How to Avoid the Faithless Spirit of most here-

  by DocHouse in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  1- pray to god (whomever you may imagine him to be) asking for understanding.

  2- study the background about the bible (from non-religious sources) to see where it came from.

  3- discard (or at least set aside) chuyrch claims and dogma.. 4- read it, looking up archaeological/historical sources about the places and peoples referred to.
