a co-worker asked me to attend a Full Gospel Businessman's Luncheon
What do you mean by "Full" (with an upper-case "F) gospel Edward? How does it differ from what most christians would understand by the gospel?

by The Real Edward Gentry inon other boards and new sites they are talking about contact with aliens in the next 20 years.
i think that would be reckless and dangerous.
how could you tell if it was a genuine space alien and not a demon?

Panpsychism - a philosophy with a future
by slimboyfat inat one time scientists believed that living things and non-living things were made of different material, accounting for the unique properties of living things.
this idea is called vitalism and is no longer popular.
what does remain popular (in fact is still the dominant view) is a similar idea that things that experience the world (humans, frogs, mice) are different from things that don't experience the world (potatoes, rocks, snowflakes).

However, I will apply the idea only to live matter. - never a jw
Which is to totally miss the point.
The clue is in the "pan" of pansychism. In other words these, Discovery Institute funded, geniuses are proposing that rocks are conscious.

Ultimately, the parents should protect their kids and when parents fail to do that, the kids suffer; and then the kids sue watchtower. - Fisherman
If you had good reason to believe that your dog was aggressive but you let it roam free in the park you would be morally and legally liable when it attacked a child.
Try telling the judge that the parent should have done a better job of protecting their child.
If you had a document that proved you knew in advance that the dog was a danger to children the court would be right to demand that you hand it over.
How does it feel to be an apologist for those who expose children to dangerous pedophiles? Who could have guessed that this is the thing Jehovah's Witnesses would become best known for?

I got called a pervert a couple days ago because I held the door open for a woman. She accused me of being a pervert and holding the door so I could look at her ass
She's an idiot.
On the other hand I tend to hold a door open so that the person coming next can take hold of it for themselves - male or female - I don't stand there like an unpaid doorman and let them go first.
You should have sung her a chorus of National Express...
But it's hard to get by when your arse is the size
Of a small country
And everybody sings 'ba ba ba da'
We're going where the air is free
Tomorrow belongs to me... -

The WT doesn't want to protect the perpetrator.
It wants to preserve the facade of being a wonderful organisation. If that means pedophiles are let free to abuse more victims then they see that as a price worth paying.

Humans can have answers to any questions
by venus ingod would not say: “you should not eat from the tree of good and bad, which would make you like me” because through jesus he said: ‘you must become like me by imitating the qualities of sun whose only concern is giving (of light and warmth) which means having no expectation of anything from anybody’ (mathew 5:44-48) .
this also means we should have no human teachers because we can have answer to any questions by ourselves, through inference.
(pro 25:2) how to go about inferring?

We have had lots of their evangelists on the forum in recent years. Venus is the latest in a long line of clones. His/her style is unmistakable although he/she is one of the few to have good English language skills.
Invariably they lie about having any connection to the BK cult. There is usually at least one other at any time who "likes" all their bullshit.
Pseudoscience and "self-improvement" are among their hallmarks. Read the link, they are an evil bunch.

Is it really possible to disprove the Watchtower?
by Coded Logic indear brothers and sisters,.
considering the end is so near at hand we thought it important for to reiterate that it's absolutely impossible to prove god's "one true organisation" wrong.
there is nothing on heaven or earth that could ever be shown to be false or incorrect in our entire .

I don’t think it’s possible to prove JWs are wrong. - SBF
It's perfectly simple to prove the JWs are wrong in hundreds of different ways. Of course to disciples of Derrida nothing is true or false.

Venus - Why do you ignore the hard questions?
You have been indoctrinated by Brahma Kumaris haven't you?
