  Cain and Abel - where did they get the idea of a burnt offering?

  by truthseeker in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  it has always puzzled me why abel, a herder of sheep, would want to kill his own animals to offer them up to god.. prior to the flood, it would be fair to say that no one ate meat.

  maybe they did, maybe they didn't, but assuming that meat.

  was not eaten, why would abel's offering be better than cain's offering?.

  Will you argue that death is not natural?

  I am not a Christian, but my prayers are just as powerful for you, since they are sincere.
  
  Hope everything works for you.

  What the C.O. said right there on the Platform

  by Uncertain in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  he started his talk before rev.bookstudy with all the gloom and doom news and then dropped the (to me) bombshell that he reads the news on line.

  yup, i could hear an intake of breath through the hall.

  i can't for the life of me remember what the rest of his talk was, although he used a box of crayolas as a prop.

  Reading the news on the 'net is EXTREMELY efficient, especially Mon-Fri, and highly recommend it.
  
  It's cheaper, too. *smile*

  They have your roommate spy on you, too, to report your tastes in music and reading material.
  
  Happened to TWO of my old friends who like punk/alternative/rock/etc.
