Scary Stuff
by Farkel intoday's high school students in the usa:.
less than 1/2 of them cannot identify the century when our civil war happened.. one in four thought columbus discovered america sometime after 1750.. one in three cannot name one right enumerated in the bill of rights.. three out of four cannot name the first us president.. two out of three do not know the length of term of a member of the house of representatives.. half cannot find britain on a map.. one out of four cannot find america on a map.. when my oldest daughter, who is now a physician was in 9th grade in this once-great state of california, i asked her about the three branches of our federal government.
she was clueless and told me she would take civics in her junior year in high school.

Today's High School Students in the USA:
Here, I'll take a stab at this. (and I ain't even an American)Less than 1/2 of them cannot identify the century when our Civil War happened. Easy. The 19th century and it ran from 1861-1865.
One in four thought Columbus discovered America sometime after 1750. Have they never heard the song: In 14 hundred and 92, Columbus sailed the ocean blue?
One in three cannot name one right enumerated in the Bill of Rights. Um....what about your Right to Bear Arms?
Three out of four cannot name the first US President. Seriously? That's a no-brainer. George Washington. Do they even know that they fought the British ?
Two out of three do not know the length of term of a member of the House of Representatives. I don't either.
Half cannot find Britain on a map.
One out of four cannot find America on a map. It's right there below the most important country in the world: Canada.
I get what you're saying Farkel. Kids today have never learned to do math in their head or even using their fingers. It's all done with a calculator. If we were caught with a calculator in math when I was in high school, you got an automatic zero.

There Is No 'Heavenly Hope'!
by The Searcher inpropitiatory sacrifice.
this is how christ's death is described three times in the scriptures.. the apostle john wrote, "the love is in this respect, not that we have loved god, but that he loved us and sent forth his son as a propitiatory sacrifice for our sins.
" (1 john 4:10).

Mary: If the literary form of the Luke 16 accounts are either "historical narration" or "parable", your point is well made. But I humbly submit that both naratives in Luke 16 are spoofs/parodies designed to make a laughingstock of common Pharisaic teaching and practice
Sorry, but if you read the preceeding verses, Jesus was already talking about money & wealth to the Pharisees. He would never have used a supposed 'false doctrine' in a parable, even if it was to make a point.

Jeremiah 25:27

I kid you not.

Somehow I thought after all the bad publicity they got a decade ago on Dateline, they'd smarten up and actually deal with pedophilia.
That was incredibly naive of me to think that.

The parable of the rich man and someone called Lazarus was simply that - a parable, which Jesus used to drive home his point.
Why would Jesus base a parable on a (supposedly) false doctine? All of his other parables were based on events or something that was real and that the first century Jews would be familiar with. Everything from a mustard seed to a wedding feast, hidden treasures, fishing, lost sheep, money, virgins, homes built on sand or rock, etc. were all included whenever he gave them a parable but suddenly that doesn't apply to the parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus? Gimme a break.
As has been shown, there are plenty of scriptures that clearly show that the bible teaches that there is a life beyond this one. The only way you can get around that is by twisting the scriptures because you have a pre-conceived idea as to what you want it to say.
I didn't write Psalm 37:29 - "The righteous themselves will possess the earth, and they will reside forever upon it", but I believe it!
Once again, you're only seeing what you want to see. The preceding verses were written for the Israelites and are talking about how they were to be righteous; to 'depart from evil and do good'. It involved 'following the Laws of God' which naturally at that time, included the 10 Commandments---something that Witnesses believe is not binding on them today. If they followed this righteous life, they would "inherit the land" (Psalms 37:29) specifically, the land of Canaan which was vitally important to them at that time. These verses have nothing at all to do with the pre-conceived idea that all humans would remain forever upon the earth.

Remarkably stupid point in this week's Jeremiah book study - Jehovah's loving kindness
by sir82 inthe whole jeremiah book is an abomination, but a point in this week's study exceeded even its usual standards of inanity.. from page 144, paragraph 10:.
in our day, god continues to show loving-kindness in ways that directly benefit his worshippers.
consider the matter of prayer.

Jehovah takes note of all sincere prayers, but he pays special attention when his dedicated servants pray to him.
In other words, unless you're a baptized, actively-reporting-your-time-at-the-end-of-each-month-Witless, Jehovah doesn't give a crap about your prayers and won't answer them.
Kinda reminds me of their brain-dead theory that Christians that died in the arenas past the end of the first century CE, were not really 'true Christians' because that would screw up up their whole 144,000 doctrine.
Assholes.

Pedophiles Knocking
by Marvin Shilmer inpedophiles knocking .
in a nutshell, it points out why the general public should be leery of jehovahs witnesses knocking at the front door.
my article is titled pedophiles knocking and is available at: http://marvinshilmer.blogspot.com/2013/07/pedophiles-knocking.html.

But if a child answers the door the paedophile knows where the child lives, and the time of day or week s/he is alone, and can return. Such a child is likely to be lonely and a great subject for "grooming".
I agree 100% and I probably should have added that in my post.
