judas thomas is known to the world as jesus brother.
most all bible scholars have no problem with this, what is of interest to me is a matter of controversy the translation of didymos used before his name in the greek manuscripts didymos literally translates into english as twin.
if you take the bible as the true gospel of gods hand then jesus had a twin brother.
good way of requiring "abstinance" as a sign of Gods chosen ones. Leaving those who can hold the secret of their lust from prying eyes, "better: than us, and "closer" to God. Those poor sinners who cannot, and don't try to hide it, feel alienated from our Father. Scared to approach him on their own. Who does that benefit? any ideas?

that is kinda goofy.
he says it is his job to protect us!?
by taking our freedom and privacy away?
Thing is, it is not Bush I hate. I hate the ideal he represents. Trying to have absolute, unquestioned authority over a bunch of frightened scared people. If he is truly looking out for us little peoples futures, he should share his reasonings with us to comfort our fears. There is very little difference between "worship" and "spying" on someone. Those questions to someone who was truly out for our well being, would be "flattering". But to someone with ulterior motives the same act would be taken as "spying". How can you recieve credit for a decision you made if you don't reveal it? Do you wait until the results come in? Then you can pass a "bad" one down to someone lower, and recieve credit for a "good" one as your own? Is that how it works? It is really "slick" though. I am in awe.....(pretty safe too.)
second gear.......

as the son of a mwazein, ergun had to learn the hadith (the sayings and traditions of muhammed, the prophet of islam) in the qur'an.
Can I race Osama? I would like to know what his goals are, and why he cannot reason with us one on one? Why must he let his "robots" do his fighting for him? Why must he let them "steal his thunder"? Is he afraid to face us one on one and tell his side? My God, did not raise me to be a "robot" leading "robots" letting them do the "fighting" for me. Wanna race? I wonder if him and Bush are in this together? See the more Osama scares us, the more we need Bush to take away our freedom to "protect" us from him. How does that work? Would Bush want to really catch him? Would you?

i personally don't care what anyone else believes.
i believe that there is a creator that created the heavens and earth.
i believe that it occurred over a period much longer than 7 literal days.. here's my problem.

My Question is...Does our Father want mindless, spineless robots, or some "snake eaters!???
Your little brother,
David
as jws we all were forced to participate in their evangelistic method.
i think that it is based primarily on fear.
here is an article about true, holy spirit powered evangelism.
How much does it cost?
that is kinda goofy.

Your little brother,
David

Here is a simple question? did the serpent "help" us or "hurt" us? was he after "worship" or "freedom for his friends"? would we be here today asking these questions, if we were not misled? Statement, there is a reason we have to find. Question, Who created the serpent, and what were his intentions? What was his job? Is he a "drill instructor" to prepare us for a battle? Or a evil power hungry tyrant bent on killing us? Is this about rewards we didn't earn? How can that ever be defined as "paradise"? is this why the rich accumulate vast riches through decieving others? Yet cannot find enjoyment or satisfaction in them? ask Jesus to show you. I did. How can you find the truth, from men's writings and "theories"? Do they know Jehovahs mind and plans? WHO created them?
They are trying to "help" the mechanics in the 50's interpert the strange language in the manual to fix the 06 Lexus S430's that are getting more messed up everyday, with every different "interpetation". the more the car gets worse the more money they are making. Are they going to accept the responsibility for the cars being messed up when the owners arrive? Did these men create and "teach" Jehovah this "language"? Did he teach them, and not you? Why would He do that? Do you not think he would enjoy teaching you about Himself and His ways? Would you want strangers while you were away, teaching your children about you? Open your minds and your eyes. Do you want to be your brothers child, or your Fathers?
Your little brother,
David
