FAKE BIBLICAL OBJECTS.

by badboy in

jw

it is believed that many objects supposedly dating from biblical timesin museums may be fake.. the james ossuary is one example..

" a proper understanding of this issue not only provides great insight into the nature of god, it ties together a comprehensive understanding to some of life's ultimate questions: the answers to my origin, meaning, morality and destiny!.

the christian worldview is an impractical, even phony, view of the cosmos because it embraces a god who is either incapable of stopping evil and suffering, and he is therefore not omnipotent, or is unwilling to do so and therefore a devil!.

Of corse free will allows evil. If we didn;t have freewill and were just mindless drones then there would be no one to carry out acts of evil anyways. But then there would be no one to carry out acts of good. Its about balance I guess. The balance that is good versus evil.

You want to remove Organised Religion because of conflict it has caused, right? But you’re forgetting that if religion is gone mankind will just come up with a new excuse for war and brutality. Like an atheism V agnostic war or general bickering over who is right about what and what is the correct thing to do in the world. The will to fight is in the blood of every human. Everyone on Earth is guilty of having at least one violent thought about another person that bugs them in some way. Removing religion will be a minor upset. It is human instinct to fight with each other. Ignorant is the name given to people who think taking away something will quick fix everything. And religion will always exist. It represents us trying to explain how things came to be and about the wider universe. To take away this belief is to strip someone of imagination and mind. I mean deep down in every human there is always going to be that part that doubts what seems logical. That’s the best I can do when trying to sum up everybody as a whole, but as a Christian some of my views may be considered biased. But I tried my best to sum everyone up as best as I could.

The Black/African American Perspective on the Watchtower Organization

by XOCO in

i was wondering if anybody has some input/suggestions on their feelings of blacks/a.a (no offences to ppl who are white and born in s.african or anything of that nature.

ok in xocos case i'm h***an/american (born in the us) and i grew up in a predominantly h****an kh so mostly black and few european ppl/decent that spoke the francophone lang (*hint,hint*) i've never knew what it was like to be in a predominantly caucasian kh (4 that 1 year i was living in the bible belt of fl,us).

it was different and ppl were mesmerized by the way i acted compared to other a.a. jw around their near by khs.

Dear Lord. So first black people are discrimated against and now people say that everyone of them is loving and caring, far more then a white person. Black people are human. White people are human. Humans and human. There is no differance. When will people learn to accept that no matter what colour, faith or apperance at the end of the day we are all the same thing; a human.

HUMAN-ROBOT MARRIAGES

by badboy in

jw
friends

i presume jws are against such marriages.

Trygon

JW would be against human-robot marriages BUT not bother to argue with human-cyborg marrages because cyborgs may have metal bodies BUT they have human brains. So in a way they are human. But I do not know what JW will think of a human marrying a human with a chip for a brain.

Christmas commercials

by Hortensia in

jw
friends

it isn't even december yet and i already hate that commercial where the woman goes into lowes or home depot and asks for christmas ornaments using body language.

i've seen it too many times already!!!!

and it isn't working, obviously, as i can't even remember which home store it is advertising.. i like christmas - the excitement, color, lights, food, parties.

Trygon

Ahhhhhh, Christmas. Among the greatest times of year, and not just for Christians. For everybody. Soooo, when is everyone putting up their trees? I am thinking next weekend for me.
