Sarah Palin isn't dumb enough to be sucked into the JW's.
Gotta keep 'em on the edge of their seats. It's really very sad. Most JW's are good people who are being misled. The internet is a real thorn in the WTBTS's side. All that info right at your finger tips. I'm surprised they haven't banned the use of it yet.

Really, how do you decide?
by startingover inover the last 9+years, i have read many discussions between believers and non believers.
each side supports their claims with research which includes links to websites.
my question is, how do you decide what information is really the truth and unbiased?

The JW's reject the Holy Spirit. He is the one that brings truth to you. It's not about religion.

Why do people look to the Bible for answers when it is obvious much OLDER works exist?
by sinis injust finished up reading the sumerian texts posted on a site, as well as the vedic books.
it is interesting to note that "fables" or works of antiquity, written down, that are much older than the bible, ot included, paint a different picture.
why, and i still cannot wrap my mind around this, do people let the bible be the answer for everything, when it is quite obvious that there are works pre-dating the bible?.

The Word is "living". It has effected millions upon millions down through the generations. Has that piece of clay with etchings scratched in it done the same?

As a Southerner, as a boy you learned to say "yes sir, "no ma'am, and open the doors for women or you got you ear yanked off by your mom. As I've gotten older I've learned to appreciate it. I have been in other parts of the country and held doors open for women, and they were a bit startled by it.

Maybe they weren't inspired by God and the Bible was.

I'm cooking a turkey Saturday. I'll make some stuffing, pick some collards from the garden, and make some assorted veggies. I've got plenty of pecans, 18 trees in my yard, but suck at baking pies. Maybe just a bag of hershey's kisses for dessert.

The Catholic Perspective
by sabastious inin another thread, bts quoted this catholic doctrinal paraphrasing of adam and eve:.
http://www.usccb.org/catechism/text/pt1sect2chpt1art1p7.shtml#390.
god created man in his image and established him in his friendship.

I'm not a Catholic, but I can see that they have done a lot of good in the world. A lot of charities, hospitals, etc. I remember when I was 19 I got stranded in Lafayette, La. broke and homeless. A Catholic group there fed me and got me a bus ticket home. Do you think the JW's would have done that for someone, especially if they were a stranger and weren't a JW? I don't think so. The JW's and others like them would rather argue doctrine all day instead of displaying the fruits of the Spirit. Organized religion has its place but it's about having faith in Jesus Christ and walking in the Spirit. Based on what I've seen, JW's deny the Holy Spirit.

I asked a JW about this a while back and never got a good answer. Altho there are different ideas about what will happen in the end times, MOST Christians have similar beliefs. Not these guys, from what I can tell. Thanks for the post.

That "Faithful and Discreet Slave" stuff with the WTBTS reminds me of some Catholics who think the Pope is infallible. It makes no sense.
