  matthew 7:18-20 says:.

  "a good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.

  every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

  Belief in God, the Easter Bunny, Santa Clause, and Fairy God Mothers

  by frankiespeakin in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  when we were a young child full of wonder at the world, so new, so innocent, we believed what ever mommy and daddy told us, if they said there was a tooth fairy why we believed it until we got older(hopefully) especially when we get our permanent teeth.. santa was probably discarded around the same time as the tooth fairy give or take a few years depending on gullibility or lack of it.. well lets face it we probably figured out the easter bunny first for the simple reason you only got some eggs,, which you can have any day of the week and you get to eat a lot of chocolate bunnies ears off not very pious mind you, nor do you fear the bunny might seek revenge for the impious act in some way like god might do remembering: the ark and ussa or wassa or something.

  that definately should be considered as a contributing factor as to why and what order they get debuncked tooth fairy danta the benifit factor need to be brought in.. god too has to go in time, eventually, just like not all at once and for everybody.

  religion to control the mind is on a head on course with human species vastly excellerated enlightenment.

  Pray -Jehovah will save you...or let you die depending on "his will." Please Explain?

  by Witness 007 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  witness yearbooks are full of experiences where jehovah saved a poor witness who prayed for help...and the soldiers walked passed and did not see them etc, etc.

  however, other brothers prayed and still got executed by gillotine so...why does gods will allow such things?

  isn't this just random chance put down as god's will?

  How much will Watchtower publish online?

  by jonathanconway in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i've noticed that they have a small selection of articles online.. however the majority of their stuff is only accessible through either the watchtower cdrom or dead trees.. has anyone yet asked them about putting their entire library online?.

  if their aim is to "spead the good news", then what possible reason could there be for not making the content publicly accessible?.

  since they already have it in electronic form (i believe the content is already in html format on the cd), the cost of doing this would be minimal, and it would probably make their website rank better in google.. of course, the flip-side is that this would allow others to link to their content and discuss it openly and, anonymously, which might expose them to much more criticism than they've ever experienced before.. but i'm wondering what their excuse would be if someone asked them "why not"?.

  Will We in the Future Bioengineer Our Children?

  by frankiespeakin in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i think in the near future this will be very prevalent and be the norm.

  i don't think anyone will want to have the risk of inherent birth defects that are preventable and their child being born that way just because they didn't want it, the future concerns of the child being more important.

  religons will have to go along with this too or else get a very bad label as not being progressive and harmful to the human race..

  Please nominate your favourite film and say why you rate it so highly.

  by lifelong humanist in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i've just watched all 3 parts of francis ford coppola's epic godfather once again.

  it is a superb achievement on many levels.

  each viewing reveals something new and fresh.. i recall, as a good jw at the time, not seeing it when released as it was not certified as 'suitable' given the content for jws.

  so if paradise won't happen, what about armargedon?

  by highdose in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  it has been recently proved ( as far as i'm concerned) that paradise the jw view of it isn't coming.

  scriptual evidence is so thin as to be non exsistent.

  ok so what about armargedon then?
