  it's been 6 months now since my old computer died.

  How do JWs Not see how barbaric YHWH is? Its what started my awakening.

  by BU2B in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  if one reads genesis from the first chapter through the end with an open mind, it is clear that not only is it not true, but that god is potrayed as a cruel, petty, childish micromanaging tyrant.

  if one continues reading the ot this is just further solidified.

  how do jws not see the obvious?

  Cofty wrote Paranoia Agent - I have no idea what you just said.

  You made an offensive personal attack on somebody who was sincerely trying to explain the OT. I objected - you waffled about Hitler.

  If you can't reason on what somebody has said don't resort to ad hominem

  Or maybe you are not good with metaphors, and I did resort to ad hominems and will continue to do so. If you have any reservations as to you why I shouldn't treat homophobics who expects me to be in an eternal hellfire after death, please let me know.

  Not really cofty, anti-theism causes the most dissonance. And besides how should you react if I said that I am nazi? A good nazi thought that likes all races and helps others, but views Hitlers actions as justified? Think about it.

  nonjwspouse wrote In my view, this was a very unhappy God trying to fix a horrible mess.

  And what exactly are you basing this on, your view? You write of god like he is some human trying to make the best of a bad situation, like he didn't know that Eve would sin, that he was going to kill children, men, women, animals, destroy lands, and make people starve. Not only that but he supported slavery, concubines, and to top it all of an eternal hellfire for me for just not believing in HIM through blind faith... How loving of Jehovah.

  But I feel God of the OT tried to rule men while allowing them to have free will and his earlier attempts to create a loving and forgiving society were disasters.

  We are not discussing free will, not that there was much free will back then. But I get the impression that you are either mentally retarded or you have never read Genesis to Joshua. Did you know what would happen if you were a virgin and raped? You would be sold to your rapist without say on divorce. They were allowed to beat their slaves as long as they did not die. A man was killed for picking up sticks on the Sabbath!! They were not allowed to eat shell fish and mix fabrics. I mean how stupid to you have to be to ignore all this

  The people are the ones who caused such horrid things, believeing they were what was required to make God happy.

  So people caused all the genocide, rape, slavery, murder, concubines etc. Right, so you have no sense of morality.

  Sex slaves, women forced to marriage and concubines. Men had the right for divorce but not women. Slavery. GENOCIDE perry.

  Of course you can justify this with "it's god therefore it's justified" but that won't change anything.

  a watcher wrote Jehovah had to be tough with early mankind. They were hard-headed and hard-hearted.

  But with the new covenant, Jehovah showed His loving side in the person of His son Jesus.

  It's a lot easier to be a Christian than it was to be a Hebrew.

  So is that why jehovah killed many infants, women, and made some virgens who were not killed into concubines?

  "Writing . . . is a lonely life."

  by compound complex in

  "writing, at its best, is a lonely life.

  organizations for writers palliate the writer's loneliness but i doubt if they improve his writing.

  he grows in public stature as he sheds his loneliness and often his work deteriorates.

  Probably he was an inspiration for that lunatic Salinger.
