Thank you Sick of Lies,
I think the apostacy thing is really outrageous. I would be shocked if the US allows it to happen, but preserving the man's safety is just as important.
It's all ridiculous too since Eloah of the bible is Allah of the Koran.

the united states and other western nations are protesting to the afghan government over the case of an afghan man being prosecuted for converting from islam to christianity.
abdul rahman was arrested last week and is now awaiting trial.

in may 1980 is an example of the worst sort of emotional argument.
i'm just going to post it, barf, and then comment later.. *** g80 5/22 p. 16 ***.
The problem with this society is that the sacred has become profane. That which can when joined to a human egg give life is treated like cordial or an enema.

We all were once embyros, fetuses, unborn babies in the womb.

If such an article prevents an abortion, and the mother gives birth, she saves her conscience and the child's life.
I saw a documentary recently about rape victims in Bosnia. One woman aborted her child. She remains devastated. Another gave her child up to an orphanage, and some years later took him back, and now said that her son is her life.
I am personally against abortion. Is a child not a human being because it has not yet taken a breath independantly of it's mother? To take the matter to it's ultimate conclusion, the doctrine of the common law is that an unborn baby the moment before birth is still not a human. It is one of the most conservative doctrines of the English Common Law, which was imported into both the United States and Australia from England.

in the "insight on the scriptures" book at page 474 and 639 the wtbts states that the anointed are divine in nature.
divine in strong's hebrew lexiconography is defined as sovereign, and in greek lexiconography as theos, or godhead or divinity (see strong's lexicon excerpts below the excerpts from insight book).. divine.
nature.
The interesting thing about the claim of the anointed is that it is an exclusive doctrine. For the anointed to be elect, everyone else must be unelect. So it's not so much about what the GB claims for the anointed as for what they say about the other sheep.
who should not fear you, o king of the nations, for to you it is fitting; because among all the wise ones of the nations and among all their kingships there is in no way anyone like you".
the reference new world translation even refers to jeremiah 10:7 - jehovah being the king of the nations.
bible references direct us to psalms 22:28 - "the kingship belongs to jehovah and he is dominating the nations".
" Who should not fear you, O King of the nations, for to you it is fitting; because among all the wise ones of the nations and among all their kingships there is in no way anyone like you".
The reference New World Translation even refers to Jeremiah 10:7 - Jehovah being the king of the nations. Bible references direct us to Psalms 22:28 - "the kingship belongs to Jehovah and he is dominating the nations".
The kosmokrator - the wicked spirit forces in the heavenly places, is revealed.
well, i have once again put finger to keyboard and produced another article.
i have to say that i have never had as much fun with a subject as with this one.
you can really see the goofyness of religion under the demon microscope.
I have found that there is only one truly effective way to perform an exorcism – just stop believing in spirits.
Singularly effective. Just like Jehovah the demons are a creation of the imagination gone out of control.
Interestingly, since Jehovah is "King of the Nations" - Jer 10:7 (see reference Bible Appendix 1J) it must also be the evil one.
one of the enduring myths of being one of jehovah's witnesses is that it somehow prevents attacks by the demons.
in reality,.
nothing could be further from the truth.
Well said TS. Bodily possession is only verrified in the case of pathogens.
Split personality disorders are a fact. Calling out to Jehovah will not help such a person in any supernatural way. It may as a mantra help them to calm their mind if they find it comforting. Having read parts of the old testament, including Hosea 13:16, I can't see how any one could be comforted by thoughts of Jehovah.
It is simply the last surviving pagan imaginary god, even if the world's main superpower is devoted to it's service.

i was watching pictures of the stampedes at the haj and it occurred to me that throwing stones at the pillar of satan was a really ineffective way of dealing with evil in the world.
it occurs to me that drawing scary pictures of satan in the watchtower is similarly ineffective in combating evil.. any thoughts?
Hi stillajwexelder,
I can't read your post. Any chance you can repost it?
