FREEDOM OF RELIGION should somehow be balanced with FREEDOM FROM RELIGION, so that those who wish not to practice any religion at all, can be protected from religious fanatics that think that their religion should be adopted by all mankind.

by EdenOne ini was just wondering about this:.
the laws of the different western countries offer robust protection to religious practice.
but what is the best term to describe it and why?

How delusional is Tony Morris actually?
by Festus inanthony morris iii was representing gb in international convention in helsinki, finland.
in his final talk he mentioned that at the fight of armageddon jesus will fight together with the 144 000. he then reminds the audience that one angel destroyed 185000 assyrians.
so what are "144 000 immortal creatures together with jesus going to do".

It appears that he 'fancies' himself as some sort of modern day Walt Disney of the Jehovah's Witness Cult. That in itself is pretty 'delusional'.

David Schafer is a GOVERNING BODY (tm) helper. He kind of looks like Howdy Doody and hence my 'parody' of his 'pulling the strings' behind the scenes.

I think David Schafer is the real 'puppet master'. He 'pulls the strings' that control the 'GOVERNING BODY'.

Woman's Purpose
by StopTheTears ini'm probably going to say some things here that will disappoint many.
there are some that may look back over the years and say "man i really blew it" i'm not writing the following to scold for failures, but rather to help those who are young enough to put into practice what god wills for their life, and also to those of us who are in our middle years that still have time to change some things, in order to please god and find a peace that only being in his will can bring.
first let me say that god didn't create man for you.

I eagerly await your description of this most important aspect of a relationship where two complete human beings share intimacies ...............................
