  Lol!!! I liked Abraham. Guy went and slaughtered a bunch of soldiers to get Lot back. HE gave 10% of what he had to Mel and didn't take anything for himself afterwards. He certainly wasn't a punk nor a moocher. He begged God NOT to destroy the 5 Cities. He certainly wasn't a JW.

  i went for the kh today for personal reasons.

  it was pretty dumb, but not horrible.

  anyway the speaker used a terrible, but accurate illustration in his gb approved outline.

  I came to the realization years ago that the illustrations are used by those who have no clue about the subject of which they are using. Some guy who probably has never been near a horse speaking about training one.

  Of course he sounds like a numnut

  The Constitution doesn't care what religion a President is, it only cares that the Country is not under the control of any religion (or Church). The founders were ensuring that the US wouldn't be similar to Europe (at the time) where the Church controlled the State(s) and it's rulers, persecuted people, etc.

  It had a lot to do with England it's kings getting and the then corrupt Popes & their constant meddling for their own greedy purposes. Also the Papacy could be bought in those days and Popes could give New World áreas as possessions to various princes and kings.

  Once self determinant, the colonists ensured that no monarchy or Church could overrule or overtly influence elected leaders.

  Wow! So he uses Abraham as an example but he completely overlooks the part where God tells him to shut up and "listen to your wife"? I do recall Sarah had a complaint.

  Sounds more like a worship the man speech. No thanks.

  'Theocratic Warfare' - Do you know when and where it started?

  by EdenOne in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  we all hear this notion of "theocratic warfare", and how it is used to justify jehovah's witnesses to lie or withhold the truth even under oath, based on the reasoning that we don't owe the truth to those who aren't entitled to it.

  but, can we put our finger on where this doctrine started?

  well, brace yourselves, here it is.

  Hitler was a dynamic speaker too ....

  Anyhoo, there is no theocratic warfare(TM); it's simply telling lies like Satan.

  In law enforcement, they are referred to as "collisions", not accidents. Driving around all drunk up isn't an accident.

  You'd think you had denied Christ three times or something ... sheesh!

  Don't despair, there are people here whose hearts aren't made of stones when you need some help.

  They aren't called "witnesses of Christ", so they don't follow his example or even know what he said. Have sympathy for them; they're being misled by usurpers who've killed Christ off for his inheritance.

  US Royal Commission or Something Like it

  by mrmagic in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  what would be the equivalent of a us version of the royal commission?

  i'm not just asking about one specific governmental entity, but perhaps even a conglomerate of entities or series of events that would need to take place to cause a domino effect....a tipping point.

  who do you think needs to be contacted that can turn around and contact a lot of others?looking for thoughts and ideas.
