  Sincere question for Christians

  by sir82 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  here's something i've never been clear on, being raised as a jw: what is the standard, "orthodox christian" if you will, teaching with regard to where the soul goes after death for each of the following 3 scenarios:.

  1) a 3 month old baby, born to believing, saved christian parents, dies;.

  2) a 3 month old baby, born to non-christian parents, dies;.

  ok, so i recently watched the film religulous, and found it to be very funny.. .

  however, i was quite disappointed to see maher "confront" some christians with.

  the "fact" that the jesus myth was borrowed pretty nearly whole-cloth from the.

  I do not think he 'swallowed' the Horus Story, inkling... I think what he was trying to say is that most people would never even consider as true an egyptian myth like that but have no problem believing the same 'storyline' for Jesus...

  To me his point is valid... if you believe the BS from the bible and jewish lore, you might as well believe the BS from any so called sacred book from anyone... and be at least an 'equally ridiculous' Religulous

  mind over matter?.

  december 2008 new scientist.. what would you rather believe in, god or the multiverse?

  it sounds like an instance of cosmic apples and oranges, but increasingly we are being told it's a choice we must make.

  BTS, I think it is a very interesting approach and based on science... good one!

  drwtsn32, no way can you compare the 'what the bleep do we know' crowd with 'the secret' crowd... we know very little of quantum physics and mechanics, but as little as we know it makes more sense to me than the bs story of the invisible man in the sky who bribes us with promises etc etc or threatens us with the horrors of hell...

  What is religion anyway?

  by I quit! in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was thinking about loubelle's post where she asked if the world would be better without religion and started wondering what is meant when someone refers to a something as religion.

  are they referring to a structured belief system.

  or are the referring to anything other that the belief that this life is all there is and once it is over there is nothing else.

  Religion is a non-prophet organization... the best BS story ever told... the greatest excuse ever given for good people to do evil things... the crutches of the servile mind where the constant assertion of belief is an indication of fear... an absurdity that makes fools of all their members cause they make them reject what they see and not what they think, instead of making them wise men that reject what they think and not what they see...

  If we go back to the beginning, we shall find that ignorance and fear created the gods; that fancy, enthusiasm, or deceit adorned them; that weakness worships them; that credulity preserves them and that custom, respect and tyranny support them in order to make the blindness of men serve their own interests. If the ignorance of nature gave birth to gods, the knowledge of nature is calculated to destroy them.

  Ungodly, Unbiblical and Abusive Methods of Leadership

  by Quirky1 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the wbts uses some of the most abusive and controlling tactics of all religious groups in keeping control of its membership.

  individual members are expected to exhibit total, unquestioning obedience and loyalty to the directives of the governing body.

  any expression of disagreement with any small point of doctrinal teaching or policy of the leadership may be grounds for disfellowshipment.

  You seem genuinely surprised... We have a saying here that 'if you dont use your head, someone will use it for you'... thats the case of most of us who submitted to all the wtbs b.s...

  Ungodly Unbiblical... hehe makes no difference... it's all a very well marketed version of the 'snake oil vendors' of yesteryear...

  I just shun them back... maybe ten years ago I had a visit from the elders ( of course the C.O visit was near! ).. I opened the door and said "You are not welcome here. You are not part of my circle of friends and you peddle lies and bullshit... you are worshipers of Baal because you sacrifice your kids to him by letting them die rather than receive modern medical attention... etc etc all because you believe and interpret a man written book as the word of a god... I despise you and if you dont get off my property now I will excercise my right to bear arms and defend myself and my household from known enemies ",,

  They never came back... I have never been happier in my life...
