  Does an ant believe a human exists? Or does it just see a huge tennis shoe and wonder what it is according to the limitations of ants conscienceness.

  what is your opinion of prince nowadays?.

  one of the worlds raunchiest rock stars, prince is in his stacked heels and flamboyant suit strutting from house to house around an ordinary suburban estate.. from: http://www.mirror.co.uk/celebs/news/2010/07/06/prince-how-the-rock-legend-turned-his-life-around-115875-22384807/.

  flanked by minders, he goes up a garden path, knocks on a door and politely asks the householder: would you like to talk about god?.

  I think there is an attempt to be different in a soul killing atmosphere. When I was pioneering, I was always given shit about not having a 4 door car. So I bought a 1974 VW Thing convertable with 4 doors (the doors could come off too!) . I used to put old pioneer sisters in the back with the top down. HA! Never wore a bow tie, though.

  Atheists - how do you feel about magic / demonism?

  by EndofMysteries in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  curious, as ones not believing in any spirit creatures, would you feel completely at ease performing a summon demon ritual, or using ancient magic words, that absolutely nothing would happen?

  or deep down would you have a 'what if' restraint preventing you?

  I don't believe in a God as layed out by JW's or any Christian religion. However, all it takes is a sincere intent and a willingness to see there is more going on. If you really astral project, there is no doubt in your mind that you literally are in another dimension. It's as real as regular 3d world. It will make you unafraid of death except that you may be afraid that emotional or psychological pain may continue on after death. I think athiesm is a good step in forgetting the way most of us were taught about God. Most athiests are angry which is a way of still staying connected with God as they knew him. Sort of like the kid in school who acted out to try and get the attention of the teachers. He was really looking for love. If you can get past that and are really curious, there are all sorts of goodies to explore. (Actually, I'm still a little angry)

  The FIVE exciting Watchtower Presidential Eras

  charles t. russell era (1879-1916)date: late 1800's.

  okay, july 1879 if you want to be picky.. current religious views: many apocalyptic leanings, prompting the origin of several major eclectic religious groups claiming that god had rejected the mainstream christian churches for their apostasy in the fourth century, and that he has now chosen a new prophet, a spokesman, a faithful messenger to re-educate the world as to the truths of the bible, long-lost and unattainable by any normal human being.

  to gain eternal life, man must listen to the new gospel of this messenger(s).. this century sees the birth of the church of jesus christ of latter-day saints (mormons), adventism and its various offshoots (including jehovah's witnesses), christian science, christadelphians and other smaller groups, each one claiming a modern-day prophet and new or once-forgotten revelations to the populace, many of whom we find shopping for new ideas, yet disenchanted with the churches.. scenario: a young man who can't understand theology from a historical development point of view begins to feel that he is the "seventh messenger" (rev.

  Good post. Here's how I see it in a nutshell. The evolution of a cult.

  1) Russell - Crazy Religious guy who, out of rebellion to mainstream Christianity, starts his own "bible study group". Has strange beliefs and mystical in nature. Gets growing group of followers.

  2) Rutherford - Takes out many mystical beliefs and makes everything more legal and "logical". The "bible study group" is now become like the other Religions that it rebelled against to begin with.

  3) Knorr - As a business man, he turns the whole thing into a profitable business and stabilizes it as a Religion. Structure is now solid and machinelike.

  4) Franz - With the machine whirrrring along, Franz brings an form of psuedo-intellectualism and arrogance that comes from the cult being at the peak of its power.

  5) Henschel to Present - The Cult is now playing defense with PR moves and trying to figure out what to do since Armageddon didn't come and the blood issue more complicated. More bureaucratic in nature and terrified of the internet. They may make compromises in the future to survive or else go down.

  Just how I see it.
