  Is there a Christian message without the element of fear/perceived threat?

  by nvrgnbk in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so many christians highlight love and mercy as the main point of their religion.. that's undeniably appealing.. but is it true to christianity?.

  in the end, isn't the belief all about escaping god's violent wrath?

  aren't those that are unable to accept the system's contradictions and absurdities promised suffering and eventual destruction as punishment for their disbelief?.

  Read the words of "Christ", and not those claiming to be "Christian"

  this will be very interesting, i only wish it would make the rounds on the jw emails the same way "knocking" did, fat chance!

  we can only hope that pbs and nova will jump on this bandwagon as well, sooner than later.

  holy moses!

  hands down my all-time favorite was the flintstones.

  it's just so hard for me to compare anything else to its humor,cleanliness,appeal to young as well as older ones at the time.. .

  no matter how bad a mood i would be in after school i could always count on fred and barney to screw something up to make me feel better lol.

  Sisters who dared to take the lead...

  by zeroday in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was out in service during a week day with a car group of sister pioneers...very few brothers went out in the week...we had 6 people and i was the only male...we arrived at our street and the head sister pioneer turned to everyone and said, "ok you 2 start at this end, you 2 start on the other side and work this way and me and bro (myself) will start here...she then got a horrified look on her face and turned to me and said, "if that's ok with you"...i just said, "sounds good to me"...at that moment i thought how sad she had to defer to my so called headship...

  There are sister more competent and compassionate than many so called "Elders". It's best to encourage the sisters to take the lead. What would Jesus do?

  last week when i was tipsy i ordered a copy of sing praises to jehovah, and it came in the mail today.

  i hadn't heard some of the songs since i was a child, and i've rediscovered some of the lyrics.

  they are quite amusing (albeit disturbing).. this is a classic everyone knows, song number 2. .

  after finishing "combatting cult mind control" i decided to move on to the next logical book.

  i've read the first 100 pages of "crisis of conscience" and it's gone by really fast.

  now i know why this book is so important.

  Survival of Human Consciousness Beyond Death

  by Rapunzel in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  to anyone's knowledge, has there been any scientific research into the question of whether human consciousness can survive beyond death?

  i am referring to research studies conducted by neurologists, neuro-biologists, and neuro-physiologists.

  as far as i know, reputable scientific studies feature such factors as control groups.

  Have u found a new faith since leaving?

  by chuckyy in

  2. experiences

  i was just wondering how many of you have found a "new faith" since leaving the jw"s. for instance, are u a member of another church, another religion, or are u now a committed atheist.

  if u have found a new faith, what convinces you that its the right one?.

  chukyy.

  I came across Age of Reason by Thomas Paine while still active, and ever since I've been using my brain far more than I did as a J-dub. Deism is better than blind faith.
