TRINITY Challenge for JW's, Unitarians and Anyone Else
by UnDisfellowshipped in
1. watchtower
2. bible
trinity challenge using only the new world translation of the holy scriptures -- let us debate and reason on the scriptures about whether god almighty is a trinity, or is only one person.. on another thread, bane said that we know for a fact immediately that nearly all religions other than jehovah's witnesses are false because almost all of them believe in the trinity.

and bane claims he can "out-scripturize" anyone with the help of jehovah.

* the son was praying to the father.

a quote from "crisis of conscience".

don't be afraid to read it.. .

whatever the initial distress - a distress that sometimes follows the demenaing experience of being interogated by men who, in effect strip one of dignity, make the weight of their authority felt, and presume to judge adversely one's standing with god - however torn one may feel inside, afterward there is a distinct feeling of relief, of peace.

don't worry, it's not for brainiacs, i only scored 3/10 yesterday!

there are just 10 questions on a different topic each day.

you don't have to play every day but if you've got a ruthless need to win it probably helps (unless your name is duncan is which case you can take a week off, stroll back to the quiz and still take top spot .
