  WHAT IMPACT WOULD A UFO LANDING HAVE ON RELIGION?

  by Mary in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was watching independence day last week, and i got to thinking "what would happen if a ufo (or several for that matter), did land on earth?

  what effect would this event have on religions that teach that god has only created life on planet earth?

  specifically, how do you think the governing body would attempt to explain this to 6,000,000 people that they've told in no uncertain terms, that there is no other intelligent life out there.

  I have not studied enough other religions to determine whether or not they teach that God only made life here on earth.

  I do not think it is impossible that there is life elsewhere. I am convinced that at the very least there is plant life, and perhaps some animals on some of the other trillions of planets in the universe.

  I find it hard to believe that the earth is the only planet that can sustain life. Who knows?? Maybe part of heaven is visiting these other planets??

  That being said, I don't think we will ever see aliens on our planet in our lifetime. At least not that is depicted in the movies and tv.

  I am so suprised to see this thread.

  Yes, I was watching this show downstairs, as my wife was upstairs putting our little one to bed.

  I too, thought I saw the quick shot of a girl with the bible. It is funny how your mind works. It was only there for a second, but I think ones mind will confirm what you saw.

  I actually ran upstairs to ask my wife if she saw it, but she had not paid attention. I think it was the bible without a doubt.

  Now, will she be brought before the elders, for pursuing worldly desires?

  I just wonder what goes through someones mind, in order to do this to themselves. Pills, shooting, etc, we have all heard before. But to actually do what he did, is beyond comprehension.

  Do you really hate JWs?..... or is it the WT??

  by ScoobySnax in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  to me, jehovah's witnesses are the watchtower society.

  i don't think you can seperate the 2. they are both inseperably joined, infact the wt defines how jws believe.

  many here say they don't "hate" jws individually, just the society, ie the wt.. where in your personal opinion is the distinction drawn??

  I dislike any person OR organization that deliberately hurt others. This religion does just that, and, there are people who follow everything they do, and then there are some who are genuinly good people.

  Do ALL men cheat??

  by ChakkaConned in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was watching an old eddie murphy hbo special a few weeks ago where he was talking about relationships.

  in his bit, he went off on how all men cheat on their wives and girlfriends.

  he was adamant that even the nicest of guys will take the opportunity to cheat if given the chance and that women need to understand that this is the way it is, 100% of the time.

  I do believe there are many guys who would cheat, given the chance.

  However, it does not mean all.

  That being said, there are many women who cheat as well. Though I believe not nearly as many as the guys.

  upon arriving i ran into lots of old friends and really enjoyed seeing everyone and visiting.

  they dont know that im currently struggling with doubts about the organization and they think that im the same old zealous brother.

  i couldnt help but feel a sence of guilt visiting with them about our current number of publishers and how many we had pioneering ect.
