  obviously, trump doesn't.

  but do you?

  do you think that they are generally fair, unbiased and honest?.

  Interesting, Minimus.

  In the past, I avoided Fox News because of its disdain for President Obama.

  That being said, I view all media outlets with a critical eye and ear.

  Why is Trump so effective???

  i think trump is an absolute idiot.

  his tactics, however, are undeniably effective.

  thought i'd just put together a short list of some of the things he does.

  I was quoting part of what you stated, LUHE.

  I submit that President Trump has little regard for the checks and balances of the three branches of government.

  Hi, Minimus.

  The US has a system of checks and balances ...

  For now, but this system is steadily losing its effectiveness.

  That is a good read, Rebel.

  President Trump reminds me so of Idi Amin.

  Remember him?

  "The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character...

  ...in all fiction:jealous and proud of it; petty, unjust, unforgiving, control freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty, ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevent bully.

  ", says richard dawkins in the god delusion p51.

  he goes on to say, "those of us schooled from infancy in his ways can become desensitized to their horror".. would you agree?.

  Scriptures that now have such a different meaning?!

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  it struck me that so many of the scriptures that the society uses to condemn others, can actually apply to them!.

  when we read them without the application that the society enforces, they can make you have that "ah-ha!

  " moment.... for instance, how about:.

  Matthew 6 verse 23.

  Luke 11 verse 35.

  Make sure that the light in you is not really darkness, because if it is darkness, how great is that darkness!

  I think this should be emblazoned on every WT building.

  Take a second look over my shoulder

  by Doug Mason in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i am about halfway through the first draft of my study into the evolution of judaeo-christian soteriology.. while it is fashionable to disagree with the beliefs of "other" religions, be it the watchtower, mormons or islam, consistency requires the same position must be applied to any and all belief systems.

  my study is not aimed specifically at the watchtower, although much of it will prove uncomfortable for jws.. i recommend that if a person's faith is weak, they should not read my study.

  they should limit their reading to books and articles that support the beliefs they already hold.

  I have read that the Gospel of John may have been written by Lazarus.

  Any information you can provide that addresses this will be appreciated.
