  Anyone tried the E-Cigarette Yet?

  by prophecor in

  1. social
  2. physical

  as a way of having your cake and eating it, too?

  the marvel of modern technology and all...do they work for you?

  not designed to get you off nicotine so much, but as a means of a less deadly delivery system.

  Idle question about Abraham and Human Sacrifice

  by corpusdei in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i don't have my usual resources in front of me, so i can't fact check this, but there's been something bothering me.

  one of the things mentioned quite often as evidence of the wickedness and evil practices of the false religion that surrounded ancient israel is the practice of child sacrifice (baal and molech being the frontrunners as i recall).

  but ...... didn't god tell abraham to kill his own son isaac as a human sacrifice?

  Why does the Society accept Christendom's "original" Bible canon?

  by compound complex in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  greetings to those who may know.. i'm reading about the various councils convened in the fourth century a.d. to determine the bible canon.

  if my understanding is correct, constantine was initially in charge, some 24 councils finally got it figured out (hardly) and there were fights over what was in and what was out.

  over 200 so-called gospels were considered and four accepted.

  Do you atheists resent the believers on here and do you believers resent the atheists?

  by Lozhasleft in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'm wondering how people feel about us exjws either becoming atheists or continuing on with a faith in god?.

  do you get angry or frustrated at the opposing view?.

  i'm new but i've seen different reactions to both on here...as for me i am happy to live and let live nowadays...its ok with me whatever people want to choose for themselves..... personally i still have enormous faith and love for god....if the jws couldnt destroy it i dont think much else could...?.
