levi is going to say so in his new book deer in the headlights: my life in sarah palin's crosshairs.. he also says he was not her first.
it should be interesting to watch this feud play out.
Meghan McCain talked about the campaign trail with Sarah. She said they were always judging her and looking down on her because she wasn't the perfect little candidate's daughter. But in an interview she made an ironic point. She said that SHE wasn't the pregnant teen.

according to many christians, atheists will go to hell for not believing in god.
this is written in the bibe..sorry i am not sure exactly where...would be nice if someone could direct me to the exact passage.
i feel however this contrived just to promote the reason for persecution of non believers.
It's an honest mistake. Perhaps he drank Colt 45 instead.
i liked the greatest man book.
i thought it was very informative and unbiased.
a good summary of the gospels.. .
I just saw that one as a bunch of rules. I would look at it occasionally to see how much trouble I could get into if I did certain things. LOL

Designs, I think you're confusing Jesus with Billy the Kid again.

I liked Mankind's Search for God. I learned a lot about other people's religions, and when I showed it to a a Sikh friend she was pleased with it's accuracy. She also knew a bit about some of the other eastern religions covered and said they did a good job.

I get the problem with molestation. JW and many other religions have handled it extremely poorly. But since they set themselves up as the only true religion, with god's spirit, they have a lot more to answer for. Somehow though, I think if someone were killing and eating babies, that would probably raise some eyebrows. Seriously. This woman's life is ruined. Her children are dead. If she hadn't gravitated toward JW's, she would have found another religion and found validation for her actions. She is profoundly mentally ill. It's common in these horrible cases for the sick person to be obsessed with religion. This shouldn't be sensationalized as an ever growing problem with JW's. I know some JW's and I love them. They aren't murdering babies. But the story is a tragedy and affects me deeply. Whatever her religion, she desperately needed help. Unfortunately people don't always see or recognize the warning signs. This woman will suffer the rest of her life, and her children are gone. NC

Perry, your god is responsible for more deaths and suffering than all of the Hitlers and Osamas combined. Your god forced young women to marry their rapists. Your god forced parents to stone their children. Your god forced his people to commit ethnic cleansing, including infanticide. Such a brutal individual truly does need to be separated from loving people. Perhaps what you call judgement is actually a reward.
And I never said you took "delight" in the torment of dead people. I quoted you to say you took "comfort" in it. Look, I know where you are coming from, I honestly do. I was there once. Now outside looking in, I see the brutality of such a god, and the brutality of the people motivated by the bible. There are plenty of religious people that simply don't fall into the brutality category--but I have found that most of them dismiss large portions of the bible.
If there is spirituality, I'd go with the pagans. These local religions were practiced for thousands of years before some angry desert dwellers decided to paint their hateful god. Perhaps such religions formed before humankind began using religion as a manipulative tool. Maybe the Neanderthals didn't have the capacity that way---or maybe Homo eretus. Back when things were a bit more egalitarian and they were just looking to find their way. Back when homo sapien was new and still investigating their potential to make others do as they wished. Perhaps their religion grew from a more innocent place, and they used it to cope. Then they figured out what a motivating force fear was, and the world has never been the same.
Is that enough science for ya Designs?
i am sure that when i gave talks, although the nwt was always the main bible used, other translations could be used to make a point.. the elders recived a letter dated may10th 2011 re:public speakers and it stated under the subheading "reading from scriptures".
scriptures should be read by the speaker rather than requesting a volunteer from the audience.
the new world translation should be used, if available.
Weird. I remember quite a few times when the speaker would read a verse from a different translation. They always told everyone out in service that any bible would show them the truth. THEN they'd say that JW's, that spoke english, used the KJ bible before they had the NWT. They don't like when people say that JW's use their own bible---but that's exactly what they are trying to enforce. If that occasional use were okay, no letter would have been needed.

LOL looking at my above post something occurs to me. "Daughter, don't have a child, it will DESTROY your life!!" LOL Oh well, I'm sure she didn't take it that way-----although she is now engaged and has told me she doesn't want children. Hmmmm

No point Cheech. That's why it's in the social section. Grump.
Designs---
I'm pretty sure teenagers were having better sex lives---nothing beats that heady mix of hormones. LOL
I knew as a JW mother, I should teach my daughter the only option was to wait until marriage. However I was a teenage girl once too! So I taught my daughter to wait, BUT JUST IN CASE, I taught her about condoms. If she made a "mistake" I was into damage control. I didn't tell anyone in the cong about it. I live in the real world, and I wanted my daughter to have a good life.
