How about the BIGGEST contradiction of them all? Child sacrifice is wrong, unless its Jehovah's idea.

Introduction - Any Believers?
by Believer ini’ve been reading it for a few of years off and on, but have been a little too ... maybe ... timid to join.
i left the watchtower organization almost 20 years ago but never abandoned my faith and belief in god.
i knew the gb/organization didn’t represent god, so when i lost my faith in them, i managed to keep my faith in an all wise benevolent creator.

Serena Williams provocative with Beyoncé.
by 2+2=5 inanyone seen sister williams working her assests on the latest beyonce video?
what's the go, surely she is not a declared jw?.
she needs some serious council from jehovah, and i'm guessing bro sammy herd wouldn't mind being on that little committee.. the song is called "sorry".

Were leading characters in the history of Judeao-Christianity suffering from psychotic symptoms?
by fulltimestudent ini don't think i've seen any reference to this academic study on this site.
the analysis in question was published in a serious academic journal, the journal of neuropsychiatry and clinical neurosciences, in 2012, with the title, the role of psychotic disorders in religious history considered.. the authors were evan d. murray, m.d., giles g cunningham, m.d.
ph.d, and bruce h.price,m.d.. it was published online october 01, 2012, reference link: http://dx.doi.org/10.1176/appi.neuropsych.11090214.

I read the article, Giordano and realize that it was published in a respected journal by respected medical professionals. That does not make it truly 'scientific' or even credible. It just means that others agree with the authors opinions. Would you accept this same premise if it was written about Moroni of the Mormon faith or characters from the book of Urantia or characters from the Quran? Something to think about. Labeling behaviors of characters from a book written over two thousand years ago is not scientific, it is a personal judgment of that person and their behavior, masquerading as medical diagnosis. "The following is a retrospective diagnostic examination of Abraham, Moses, Jesus and St. Paul." That statement seems to be a carryover from the old Psychoanalytic method. This is just my opinion as I have no medical credentials. The hype of 1975 and the polemics of the Watchtower Society against higher education destroyed my dream of becoming a Doctor, so I am just a dilettante with my own viewpoint.

Very interesting article indeed. Men pretending to be doctors, using unscientific criteria, to diagnose (label), possibly fictitious characters from a book (the Bible) written over two thousand years ago that may or may not be historically relevant. Pass me another Prozac...........I can't handle any more bullshit.

Sin Inherited Humankind
by looter inso jws believe all humans have faults, problems, birth pangs, etc., because we all inherited sin from the original human being adam.
like i would like this to make since but why would jehovah do this to future humans who have done nothing wrong at all?
i think of it like if a parent has one child and that child really disobeyed her before then when the parent has a second child, she punishes that child because of what her first did.

The 'dented bread pan' analogy always made me laugh. It must have been dreamed up in the mind of a fool. Whether a bread pan is dented or not, no two loaves of bread look the same when they are finished baking and come out of the oven anyway. Besides, who give a damn if your loaf of bread has a dent in it. When it is steaming hot ,fresh from the oven and slathered with butter it is still delicious to eat and so it is 'perfect' for what it was made for.
