  as far as god/satan type a thing.... a. i don't think i believe the bible is from god.. b. ying/yang type a thing.

  god and satan are equal in power and god owns heaven and satan owns earth.

  god can't do anything about suffering, etc because they are equal in power.. c. we go to heaven after we die.. see?

  I choose to hope in something else though. It simply makes me happy to believe that..cognac

  Three important points in my mind (1) you get choose (2) we must all live with hope IMO (3) belief brings inner peace & happiness

  These are all important input factors IMHO to a life worth living now and in the future !

  My issues with women ...

  by The Berean in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i have always viewed women as more clever, manipulative, and intelligent than me.

  no, i never walked around voicing my bias ... yet, over time, i must confess i have been afraid of the opposite sex.

  it has only been in recent times that i have begun to fairly evaluate each individual by their conduct and not their gender.. why do i bring this matter up on this particular site?

  Your comments are like so many we have seen here lately. To say that women/men are this way or that way because of personal experience is to be shortsighted and ignorant. People are different, some are decent and loving and honest, some are not. Some are broken and make lousy choices, some come out of hellish lives intact. We are all individuals....Beks

  I think the above quote sums things up, we are all individuals , but to add one more thought... I believe the WT intense

  program of activity perverts and interferes with the whole man-women natural relationships... priority is shafted away from

  family and towards the importance of organizational things to "please " God ! Often our early childhood perceptions of people

  are projected onto others through no conscious intent on our part..but only through our personal experience and training .

  I would never want to question ones personal experience but only to say try to look beyonds these set perceptions ...see individuals

  as Beks says !

  Embarrassing Moments on the Platform

  by HintOfLime in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i was thinking the other day about a potential answer to the frequent party question 'what was your most embarrassing moment?'.

  immediately my mind went to my last experience on the theocratic school.

  as an aspiring ms, i volunteered at the last minute to give a #4 talk on a particular individual (ignorant of what i was about to get myself into).
