Children called Elisha, a prophet of Jehovah, "Baldy Head" so he cursed them and a couple of bears tore 42 of them to pieces. Very loving.

The Myth About Jehovah as a "GOD of LOVE".
by smiddy3 ini`ll list a few things and welcome any input, comments you may have .. 1.when adam & eve "sinned" disobeyed him, surely god could have handled it better than to condemn all future generations to disease and death ?.
2.his handling of satan who supposedly seduced eve to disobey god could also have been done a lot differently with a finality to it.. 3.i find little if anything in his dealings with the patriarchs that suggests a loving god protecting them.?.
4.taking on the nation of israel and leading them as his chosen people does not inspire confidence or trust as a god of love.. 5.throughout the hebrew scriptures / old testament his chosen people were constantly at war with other nations which of course would have meant many deaths of the israelite`s during these battles .and the grief that comes with family members in those times.

Is it really safe to enter the cong. Bank a/c details on their website?
The Bank a/c details do not appear on the form, only the congregation name and address. This is selected from a drop down list, just type the first few letters of the congregation name.

144000 who’s idea first
by Tim207 inhello this is my first post although i’ve lingered on this site before.
i’m curious about a comment i read saying that rutherfords idea of only 144000 going to heaven was taken from the founder of the church friends of man.
i tried looking up this church but could not find information on when they started this belief.

What funds do the congregation have to help anyone these days? Here in the UK the congregation is only allowed to retain 3 months operating expenses, anything they have over and above this has to be sent to the Branch Office each month.
Prior to this change our congregation had thousands of pounds in the bank, even after sending bequests to the society. There would have been funds to help needy ones. Those days are gone. The big asset strip made sure of that.

she had a wonderful disposition and was just a source of joy to everyone who would meet her.. she was brought to the vet on thursday and seemed to have digestive issues.

Losing a pet is like losing a member of the family, in some cases worse as you usually see your pet every day.
The WT people have no comprehension of this however and discourage pet ownership.

What's up with old geezers in the Bible?
by eyeuse2badub inwhat the hell is the problem with the famous “men of old” in the bible?
for some strange reason those old geezers (and some not so old) could not recognize who they were screwing?.
my wife was listening to this week’s bible reading about jacob, laban, and the sisters leah, and rachael.
