Facts about the NT Bible

by Amazing in

jw

historically, the bible is a secondary support for christians and jews.

i was raised roman catholic, and our tradition and practices included the bible, but it was not a key centerpiece of our faith.

the jewish side of my family likewise have a rich history of tradition and faith that is lived, and not pinned down to every word in the bible.

There are a lot of points to consider. Like did Jesus really do all the miracles accredited to him. If he did other God men or Christs did the miracles first. Osiris/Dionysus Gods of the pagans were the first Jesus and their lives included raising the dead, turning water into wine at a wedding feast, having twelve apostles, being reborn by being baptised, riding into town on a Ass waving palm branches to take kingship, breaking and eating bread to represent their body, drinking wine to represent their blood, dieing on a cross, being raised on the third day. Last but not least their followers await for the triumphant return of their God man or Christ in the last days to rule the earth.

My question is why did Jesus not have the originality to come up with his own miracles and life without copying false Gods lives? Could it be that he did not do these things? Could it have been made up? Onething is for sure if Jesus Christ really did these things he was not the first man to have been given credit for doing them.

zack I see you have two threads running right now on this. What is your thoughts on hunting?

When I went to bed last night I thought this morning this thread would have lots of posts. Everyone must of went to bed as well.

I am interested in trying to understand the anti-hunters mentality and what motivates them to try and change how I live.

Last night I had a friend from the city with her two kids here at the house. They came up for dinner, I grilled up burgers for them. Everything was fine until I told them the meat was from a cow that I raised on the ranch. The oldest girl 14 said you knew the cow? I said yes. She got a horrible look on her face and put the burger down and did not finish it. Her sister did the same thing.

Where do the city people think meat comes from anyway. I think people have gotten so far away from nature they no longer have any common sense. The concrete walls of the city crowd their brains and they longer can see how beautiful the real world is. Then they feel the need to fight to change the people here that are connected to nature and living in harmony with it. Why most of the time what they do is totally wrong and hurts nature. The deer need to be hunted if they are not hunted they become dumb and a real problem.

Forgot to mention my neighbor below me had a horse killed as well. And one of my best friends had his dog killed as well. We use to have the biggest wild herd of ElK in the world in the drainage I live in. Now we have none eaten by the wolves. Now the wolves are hunting the deer but the deer are faster and able to avoid being eaten.

Who do you city boys think is the next on their list.

People say wolves do not eat people and this is mostly true but a guarantee you that if it means the wolf dieing from starvation or eating my boy the wolf will eat my boy.

Anti-hunter stay away from my place!!! Everone one else is welcome. Including all religions, color or creed. My wife and I will feed you and make your stay enjoyable. My door is open to anyone but anti-hunters.

I will be frank. I hunt and I enjoy hunting. I allow hunters on my farm. I like hunters. I normally do not like anti-hunters because they have no clue to the balance of nature. Every anti hunter that moves here usually does not last long in these parts. We love to see them move anyway. They are not welcome in the community I live in.

Last week we had six wolves on my ranch. This pack of wolves killed several of my neighbors dogs that were tied up in his yard. The wolves have the right to their groceries and I do not blame the wolves. But you city dwellers demanded that Idaho have them. So you could sleep at night knowing they live up here in my yard and not yours. I will make this point right now. The wolves were never here in the place. The wolves that were planted here are the bigger Canadian Grey Wolves as big as two hundred pounds each. The native wolves that live here are at most 40 pounds and are called timber wolves they were never extinct, they have always lived here. Now the native wolves are gone, they have been killed by the planted Canadian Wolves. The original timber wolves have more of a right to live here than I do. But you well meaning city boys demanded that a bigger deadlier wolf be planted here and now my family and everyone that lives here are to scared to go camping and enjoy our lives.

My neighbor was woke up two years ago by a commotion his horse was surrounded by a pack of wolves and the pack killed his horse as he ran out to save his horse. The wolves killed his horse as he held the horses reigns in his hands. After they killed the horse they proceeded to back him away form the horse.

Idaho will soon be killing all but 100 wolves and this will be done by the hunters of Idaho. The records show only about 600 wolves in Idaho but this is BULL they only count the packs that are radio collars. I just talked to the local Biologist for my area and he said that the Idaho fish and Game thinks the number is closer to 1600 wolves and not 600.

I have to ad i have a ranch that every so many years get over run by deer. I allow hunters to come and kill the deer but the hunters do not take enough deer off the ranch to maintain a healthy herd. So the deer get over populated, skinny and sickly, then they get diseased this disease appears in this part of the world. Only when the deer get over populated it is so horrible it will make grown men cry see them die this way. The deer suffer unbelievable painful deaths.

When populations start to get out of hand we beg hunters to come to the ranch.

So all you city dummies that think we should not hunt I'll video and post the death throws for you so you can see why hunters are important.

Five years ago this hit on my farm and over three hundred deer died on AP 400 acres and tens of thousands in the county.

Anti hunter are not welcome on my proerty and I will shot to kill.

Hunting is vital part as to why we have most animals in the US. If it was not for the hunters most of the wild areas would be gone. Hunters provide the money needed to protect habitat.

Anyone against hunting tells me a lot about pthe person that makes stupid comments against hunters, it shows a lack of education on the part of the person making the comments.

Wild meat is healthy. Most non hunter bitch a lot, at the same time they do not donate funds needed to managing wildlife. So it rest on the shoulders of the hunters.

Former/Current Elders, MS, or anyone who wants to give their $.02

by I.Wonder in

jw

i was wondering what an elder or ms might say to a wife who has an unbelieving mate?.

especially if her mate is in direct opposition of the truth.

i dont necessarily mean that her life in any physical danger.

skyking

It really depends on the body of Elders and if they think she is becoming damaged by her husband. What I mean is spiritual damage. If they feel he has a chance of persuading her to quit they we tell her she can divorce him on grounds of spiritual endangerment. They most likely will never tell her to do this but will mention strongly. Then the wives of the Elders will outright tell her she should leave. I has seen this several times and have even been the brother that has told a sister this.

My dear atheist posters, what would you recommend . . .

by pennycandy in

for a reliable, accurate study of the authenticity of the bible and/or the existence of god?.

I have read most of the books mentioned but I think one the best is "The Jesus Mysteries" by Timothy Freke It is about was the original Jesus a Pagan God.

There now way to escape it he was. And this book proves it without prejudice. All Christian should read thisbook and then try to prove it worng, because they can't too much proof. Eye opening book buy and read.
