Debating with anybody will end like this, we say and listen to their final words, and then our refrigerated bodies are taken out, we are no longer alive, and our words can no longer be heard nor listened to, and we no longer have anything to say or hear anymore....which is why I love London. In London I can visit art galleries see the painting of Ophelia, and understand it's the flowers, the sun and life with my wife and son itself which are ART....if that makes sence ? Anyway with such an appreciation of life I am happy to die and to float away for ever...having died loving and loved by my son and wife .with these memories, not of religion nor evolution but love...I will happily float away to nowhere. That's my goal.
p.s I am in good health.

I believe a persons behavior falls into a pattern that arises from ones nature. Now I am sure all the G.B have sexual urges, and most people to fulfill that need, will put themselfs in a situation where the urge is fulfilled. So I do not believe as you do that most members of the G.B are deluded, I believe they put themselfs in a position where they can fulfill there humun nature to be worshipped. To clarify Gooffrey Jackson has his sexual urges fulfilled marrying a much younger woman, and he has the power as well. He is not deluded, he is a member of the G.B.

God is Love
by The Rebel inon my my way to work today i had a tract with the words " god is love" thrust in my hand by a young man, of some church denomination.
now if i were to give the tract to a " witness" he would find the tract repulsive, repellent, blasphemous.
" in fact if i i were a witness i would be punished for reading such material.. why would this be?

Thanks Rebelfighter, it must have taken great courage to write that post. Thanks for giving so much of your inner self to this O.P. I am sorry your savings account was drained on medical bills in a " Christian country." I believe in a free medical service, and I think this should be subsidized by each citizens tax whether or not they ever personally gain from it.
Glad I started the O.P. And I believe if a person believes " God is love" or if a person doesn't believe "God is love" we should all believe " A free National Health Service" is LOVE.
p.s I think " compound and complex" recently started a thread about personalities on the board, and it's the personalities behind what we believe which make posting worthwhile.

Rebelfighter " ..the last thing I expect to see on this forum is " God is love" Everytime I have said that on this forum I have got blasted"
The Rebel A) I am glad you have your faith and that it is something important to you.
I enthusiastically await being amused by those who don't read my O.P and blast me, thinking this athiest belives God is love. However it was worth starting the O.P to have you a poster so clever and much admired by myself voice her faith. I like reading stories of people's spirituality, as I am not sure if I am not a little spiritual myself. I qualify that by saying I believe the mind has power we do not entertain.
p.s I couldn't give your second post a green thumbs up, because love is most definitely NOT " forgetting to think of the long term consequences, both financially and emotionally" in fact I would say it's the exact opposite :-)

Double post, so how do I fill an empty box? Love is boundless, selfless, and a deep concern for the other persons happiness. I don't believe we need religion to archive that.
or maybe I like the phrase " love is without make-up" and certainly in the " truth" love was presented with a lot of make up and very little inner beauty.

Yes Chook, and in my personal life, I think I have learnt the law of love outside of religion.

On my my way to work today I had a tract with the words " God is love" thrust in my hand by a young man, of some church denomination. Now if I were to give the tract to a " witness" he would find the tract repulsive, repellent, blasphemous." In fact if I I were a witness I would be punished for reading such material.
Why would this be? Because according to a witness the message in the tract " God is love" is designed to deliver an apostate message, it is designed to deprave and corrupt the mind of the witness. Personally I am sure the young man who thrust the tract in my hand had no intention to deprave and corrupt anybody he gave tracts to this morning.
Anyway the reason for the O.P was I was fascinated by how this seemingly innocuous phrase " God is love" can cause so much temperament and difference of opinion, even in Christian churches. But more importantly I wondered what this phrase " God is love" now means to me?
I concluded for me the phrase " God is love" are words, merely words. Maybe tomorrow I will on my way to work have thrust in to my hand by a well intended Christian of a different denomination a tract" God is truth." Oh dear! such zealousness reminds me of my former self. Anyway I think the phrase " God is love" must have some standard of reference, With the Witnesses it was Armegeddon and the destruction of the majority of people in my neighborhood. I must have been completely mad, insane and unloving to have once belived and delivered that message to those people in my neighborhood.
I have during writting this O.P tried to reform my thinking and think positively of the young man who thrust the tract in my hand today, maybe his church is less harmless than the organisation? But in conclusion would you not agree if we had continued delivering our message " God is love" that in so doing our life had been a failure?

Simon I think what ever football team we support, we do so because we are supporters and become friends with fellow supporters, and for some reason our football club becomes the most important thing in our life. Like a Kingdom Hall to a witness, so is my Waford club to me, and the failures of my football team will never equal the disappointment nor the failures of my Kingdom Hall

Can anyone imagine a real football supporter debating anything, we have the brains of a derainium and our life is drinking beer, then football.
