  Satan, could be the good guy

  by excito-are in

  you know, there is always two sides to a story, sometimes more.

  surely that must be the same with the bible stories.

  who in all logic would only listen to one side and form all opinions from that.

  Mark Twain said "But who prays for Satan? Who in eighteen centuries, has had the common humanity to pray for the one sinner that needed it most, our one fellow and brother who most needed a friend yet had not a single one, the one sinner among us all who had the highest and clearest right to every Christian's daily and nightly prayers, for the plain and unassailable reason that his was the first and greatest need, he being among sinners the supremest?"

  Good point really

Who has read the devils bible? or even who has seen the other perspective from the slandered victim blamed for all mankinds woes? Could it be that Satan was a freedom fighter willing man to choose free will and think with all his ability?

  Not that I am advocating paganism here, but just some thoughts on a story only ever told from one side

  Ye

  Maybe it was Doctor Who? they sent.

  The Jw really have no claim to any humanitarian aid to the common people of any country. correct me if I am wrong, but according to the watchtower itsself, all aid goes to spiritual brothers ( JW) as they often write in their magazines.

  Would it be fair to compare JWs to Terrorist Organisations?

  by african GB Member in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  -terrorists are prepared to die for their course,.

  -jws are prepared to die for jehovah.. 2 terrorists treat those with different views as enemies,.

  2 jws treat 'worldly people' as enemies.. 3 terrorists are brainwashed from a young age,.

  No. To be a terrorist organisation, surely violence and the threat of violence has to be central to its actions. However, I would say they have the potential to be a terrorist organisation given they can be so controlled by a number of men whom they know nothing about. The bible and new light could be used to justify anything.

  As voltaire said. "Those who have the power to make you believe absurdities, have the power to make you commit atrocities".

  Give a man a fish, and he will eat for a day. Teach him to fish and give him a fishing rod and he sells it and eats for a week.

  Hey everyone

  I have decieded to celebrate my first christmas this year. I was a born in JW and now aged 32 and having not been to a meeting in a year this is a big step for me. I don't feel any guilt or worry ( just excitement) which I would of, if I had done this a few years ago. My wife has never been a JW and has went without christmas for 7 years, so she is delighted. This has been the last hurdule for me to overcome and I am well looking forward to it.

  So does anyone have any tips or advice on how to make a good christmas, Decorations e.c.t. What makes a good Christmas?

  Will be having my sister ( she was DF 10 years ago, and never looked back) over with her husband and kids. so they will be happily shocked I guess.

  To be honest, we need a new Ray Franz to come out of the governing body and disclose what has been going on inside over the last decades. though looking from the outside it seems that time and the internet is the problem for the WT. A new reworking of Daniel and Revelation will have to come about in the next 20 years as these books became even more outdated and bizarre even to the most faithful.

  They can't become to mainstream or they lose what separates them from rest of Christianity, however they need to modernise somehow retaining the control.
