  Passport to Heaven

  by JW Answers in

  jehovah's witnesses believe that only 144,000 go to heaven, where as the bible teaches us that all who come to jesus can!

  nothing in the bible for 144,000.. the bible teaches that salvation is not through religion, works, self righteousness or human effort.

  but salvation is only through the person of the lord jesus christ.. feel free to watch below.

  From RSR website..

  ..we get to debate Darwinists and atheists like Lawrence Krauss, AronRa, and Eugenie Scott, and easily take potshots from popular evolutionists like PZ Myers, Phil Plait, and Jerry Coyne

  1. If Fred has had conversations with Eugenie Scott and Jerry Coyne and can still refer to scientists as 'Darwinists' then he clearly has no interest in honest conversations.
  2. If Jerry Coyne didn't clear up his misconceptions then there is no chance I can help him. Coyne has forgotten more about science than I will ever know.

  But here we are you and I on an ex-JW forum. I know more than most ex-JWS about evolution and you are full to the brim with ill-informed tropes. So do you want to chose a specific (narrow and focused) topic and let's talk

  Sea Breeze - How many random points are you planning on making in this thread?

  If I was playing theist bingo I would have a full house by now.

  The argument from morality is facile. Would you like start a new thread so I can explain? Or is it the theodicy or free will or soteriology you want to make assertions about? You really have hit the jackpot for ill-informed arguments against something you don't even begin to understand.

  I don't want to give the bullshit in the OP above any more attention than it deserves.

  By the way I thought it was odd when you said you 'wanted' to be an atheist. Why? I just wanted to follow the evidence - feelings be damned.

  I'm also not angry at god. That would be stupid. I'm disgusted and repulsed by xtian theology.

  Keep on attacking strawmen.

  I have never used evil as an argument against theism.

  Natural Evil does however prove that the god of Christian theism cannot exist

  Shouldn't God give people what they really want?

  Sea Breeze your god is like an abusive husband who beats the crap out of his wife while shouting 'look what you made me do'.

  No christian genuinely loves such a monster. It's more akin to Stockholm Syndrome.

  Salvation from the eternal torture your god plans to inflict on everybody he decided since eternity past not to save.

  What an evil fucked up dogma you preach!

  Scottish Queen of Woke Resigns

  by cofty in

  1. social
  2. current

  first new zealand's dictator resigned and now nicola sturgeon the first minister of scotland has announced her intention to go.. nobody is certain exactly what the trigger was but there are plenty of possibilities.

  the final straw may have been her 'gender recognition' act that would have made it possible for anybody 16 and over to legally change their sex on a whim.

  the vast majority of scots were opposed but she battered the legislation through holyrood regardless.

  I think the term is fitting if a little hyperbolic.

  She actually made it law that you could go to prison for saying the wrong thing in your own home.

  Her petty COVID rules and regulations were so convoluted that her spokesman regularly got tied in knots trying to answer questions about who could and couldn't find visit a dying grandparent.

  Her ambition was to be supreme ruler of a dominant and totally compliant SNP party in an independent country.

  In retrospect she was an abject failure.

  There is an authoritarian tendency in modern politics that must be constantly exposed and resisted. The leaders do NOT know what is best for us as recent events have shown.
