householder " who is jehover?".
freud " he is simply wonderful.
but i am simply a man trying to describe my thoughts, feelings and moments".
Householder " Who is Jehover?"
Freud " He is simply wonderful. But I am simply a man trying to describe my thoughts, feelings and moments"
Householder " So who is Jehover?"
Freud " Well he is the superiority of one man over another, not just in the quality of language; but also the quality of the heart, because I know as you read his Watchtower you will become awake, feel Jehover constantly close to you"
Householder :- "With Jehovers words can this closeness and tenderness ever replace the physical touch of sex?"
Freud:- " Jehovers words are an intermission before the physical touch, his words are instead a state of becoming, a means to awaken your heart"
Householder " Well my passion is to find truth, can I find this "truth" with Jehover?"
Freud:- " Jehovers words are not an hullusiation full of unfulfilled lust like sex. Please look at this article in this Awake magazine, it is about apples. Did you know their are 10,000 different types of apple?
Householder:- " So, what is your point?"
Freud:- " Well it was the forbidden fruit that opened Adams eye to the female body and thus the desire to kiss each and every pore of Eves body with delicacy"
Householder " Well I happen to have an apple pie cooking in the oven!"
Freud " Oh you have awakened passion inside of me, I see you are a female, beautiful to the physical touch. Can we share some apple pie?"
Householder " Do you mean you want to lay your head on my breasts, our bodies to become one, our love making a passion like art?"
Freud :- ( Thinking he is on to something good) " Yes please, sounds good to me"
Householder :- ( Wiser and more worldly than the great philosophical minds, and less hypocritical than the religious door knocker, understands the wounds of life are not to be judged replies:-) " people fall in love with words, people fall in love with power, people are born in to a religion, but they struggle with living up to them....let's share some apple pie"
The point of the O.P ?
Sometimes I honestly believe the only words worth listening to are the words of solitude and silence within our heart. Because these words are the basic condition of who we are, and the glimpse of the world through a strangers eyes be it Watchtowero or Freud, doesn't usually improve our world, our feelings, nor our heart.
Area LGT4,
Block:- The Graham Taylor Stand LG
Row DD
Seat 135.
Entry via 1-11
The above instructions are to find my seat for Saturday's football match. I believe 27,000 supporters will find their seat on Saturday.
Now when I talk with a Jehovers Witness, I have discovered asking simple instructions to research even the most basic flaws of the organisation never seem too work...therefore unless its personal i.e a close friend in the cult, I just feel happier taking my seat 135, Row DD and enjoying the game, and not judging my 27,000 other Watford supporters private beliefs, ( And I am sure a minority of those beliefs are even more wired than my former beliefs)
are children born crippled/diseased, uncared for, and dying prematurely proof that god does not exist?.
1) what do children born healthy and well cared for prove?
2) what do babies aborted (many of whom might have led a normal healthy life, and some of whom might have contributed much to the society like many scientists, doctors, engineers ....) prove?.
anointed1 ...you may have a point? Personally I don't get the point. What I get from your O.P and your post history is .....well when I left the " truth" i became overthinking and depressed. Not all thinking is going to make us happy....why over canvass your views? I have a feeling your O.P is best answered by saying read a good classic book, or just be less concerned about your O.P " Are children born/ crippled diseased uncared for , prematurely proof that God does not exist?"
Why do I say that?
Well the O.P will not get a sympathetic audience here. More importantly their has to be better ways to spend your time than starting OPs that won't change people to your thinking. I learnt that as a door knocker, as a witness I learnt I was playing with a bad hand...

Sadly it never occurs to the millions of Jehovers Witnesses to read and research such stupid statements from the book that it was founded on. A book that claimed to contain complete truth. ( UNBELIVABLE ! )
It pays to educate yourself " The clergy are like dumb dogs because they prefer to remain silent rather than accept one single " Truth" from Russels writings ( p.238)
Boo boo, gaa ga mama, mama....or the under 5 content, from Jesus:-
Matthew 18:3 Jesus said " Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven" and I would also add a good Psychiartrist may also be in order.

we must love one another.. if i read the posting guidelines and saw the lurking presence of that new commadment " we must love one another" i would feel very uneasy about registering.
it sounds more like a threat than an expression of love.
Slimboyfat:- " Matthew 10:34 " Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth, I did not come to bring peace, but a sword"
The Rebel:- My mind-reading of Slims mind " Do not suppose that I have come to this board to bring reason, I have come to bring confusion, I do not bring logic but illogic" And we "LOVE" you for it Slim.

" Nathan Nantas" I simply don't get your humor. So having cleared that up and my runt over, you are honest and human, through and through. So I hope we can " RESPECT" each other? as for"LOVE" ummm well I hope I don't need to clear that up?
Now isn't the above better than Jesus " COMMANDING" us to " LOVE" each other? Respecting each other should be enough?

I know it's not cool to say this but I used the word " LOVE" today...
I had a problem with a water leak on my house gutter, my friend said " I have a friend who can fix that...blah blah, (fix it cheaply) I said " I would " LOVE" to hear from him" Only afterwards did I think how qualified is this guy i have said I would " LOVE" to fix the gutter?
The word " LOVE" and how we use and need it is wired.

Loveandhateexams ( Q) " I am giving everyone on this board ...a new " COMMANDMENT" we must love one another." have you cleared this with Simon?
( A) I would " HATE" everybody on this board to " LOVE" everyone. That's " Cult " LOVE.
My "O.P" ( which I am regretting starting) is Jesus COMMANDED we " LOVE" each other, and this I believe was unreasonable. However the thread has bought up the translation of the word "LOVE" and put it in another context, furthered qualified by:-
" Mgmelkat" who wrote " I am an athiest, but I believe in the Golden Rule, and I endeavour to be "LOVING" to everyone I encounter"
Therefore kindly do not read my " O.P" and conclude I was suggesting we " LOVE" each other...I would have to be drunk or high on meths to suggest that, I simply used it as an illustration that my interpretation of Jesus " COMMANDMENT" we " LOVE" each other is unreasonable.
