Evolution/Creation Talk

by truthseeker1 in

this last sunday we had the evolution/creation talk.

it was hard to sit there and take that load of crap.

its funny because the night before i looked up a lot of evolution info at different schools on the web so the arguments were fresh in my mind.

Hope you all had a great weekend and thx. for the notes,as for a bit of history, I used to study with JW's years ago,but found it very limiting,with regards to personal lifestyle and so on,but one thing I do however believe is in the creation,basically because nothing else really makes sense,so if we were created,it would obviously by God.
As for the flood,all I meant was that if God created everything,a flood would hardly be a hard task to carry out,considering all his power.

DON'T IT MAKE YOU WONDER?

by blondie in

not marry an unbeliever (nwt for all scriptures).

deuteronomy 21:10-13 ***.

10 "in case you go out to the battle against your enemies and jehovah your god has given them into your hand and you have carried them away captive; 11 and you have seen among the captives a woman beautiful in form, and you have got attached to her and taken her for your wife, 12 you must then bring her into the midst of your house.

What does the average Witness know?

by Grunt in

i have to wonder what the average witness today knows?

i guess they are under orders not to talk to anyone that might actually be able to inform them of any facts that are negative or unflattering to the society, but what have they found out anyway, through whatever means, even the publications?.

1. do they know that russell got a lot of dates from the measurements of pyramids, including 1914?

Greetings,

I recently started a bible study with a witness and Ive raised quite a few of the points on here and I was actually impressed by the fact that there are so many sites that are anti-witness,an excellent witness in itself,does make one wonder how 6,000,000 can become so hated in the world,I do how ever thank everyone for their comments as it does deff. give one a good perspective,so Ill keep my study going I think.

Im really impressed the knowledge of laws passed onto the jews,has it ever occured to you that those laws are no longer valid,otherwise we would still be in the eye for an eye age

Why do you believe???

by truthseeker1 in

i have a question for everybody.

it has probably been asked before, but i'll ask it again in case anyone changed their minds.... why do/don't you believe in god/god.

what give you faith in things not beheld/makes you not believe?.

ravingferret

Well the same can be said for humans,are we not destroying the planet at an alarming rate,infact it will be something short of a miracle if we're still around in 100 years,so if there is no God,we dont really have to worry then,because we only have limited time anyway.

Greetings,

I recently started reading this web-site and the more I read the different posts the more I believe there has to be a God,what one does after admitting one believes in God is another matter.

The simple fact is that us humans have an inbuilt program to worship something,beit money,sports stars,sun,moon,cow,whatever,and if we indeed had evolved we would naturally be happy enough not to feel the need to worship something.

Greetings,

Interesting stuff you all have to say,personally I think the bible is pretty spot on as to how we got here including the flood,if you believe in it,as for the earth-wide flood,do you honestly think for the person who created the planet and everything else,flooding the planet would be an easy task explaining the location of animal remains on the high peaks of mountain ranges around the world,the question I have is that there seems to be quite a few people on the site who have loads of negative feedback,and seeing I havnt read a publication in 6 years Im looking for some explanations as to what the hell we are doing here in the first place.

There is a saying:"he who dies with most toys wins",belive me Ive got loads of toys thanks to some business ideas but thats besides the point.
Ive become a little bored,tried a few extreme sports like mountain climbing,hand gliding and even motor-cycle racing to no avail.

What I need to know is what to work towards and nobody on this site seems to have an idea,at this rate I might consider going back with my tail between my legs and hope for the best.
