my boy is going to play for watford football club!
and whilst i didn't take his revelation to seriously, i am was glad his " goal" isn't to pioneer.
:-).
I would like to thank every one for the positive comments. My boy has now played football with Troy Deeney and other members of our beloved Watford club. However it was only part of the " Troy Deeney" foundation to raise money for charity.
It was however the biggest day of the year for me, watching Orlando ( my boy) playing with his football heroes. It was better for both of us, better than going to the memorial or winning the lottery.
i've been thinking about this the past few days and curious what the honest consensus is here just for fun.. show of hands,.
is the governing body.... a: completely sincere.
they really do believe what they teach.. b: somewhat sincere.
Just a quick answer " Beth Sarim"
Humble "Judge Rutherford" the second president of the " Watchtower society" lived as a caretaker of this ten bedroom mansion in California, whilst he awaited Abraham, David, Isaiah & Samuel to be resurrected and live in it.
Today the G.B live in shameless luxury, power and ego. To assume they know nothing of the history and failings of the society they lead is in my opinion stupid and naive.
When the GB don't benefit from their power and ego they may be sincere.
why the big controversy over baptizing the dead, they are dead folks..i know it's a quirky practice but jewish leaders are up in arms because the lds leaders are baptizing holocaust victims..what harm is it??
?hell jw's are preaching everyone will go up in flames no one believe that crap except jw but no one is up in arms, they know they walk a different step....the lds leaders agreed to halt baptisms specifically of jews holocaust victims in 2010 but they are at it again, baptizing jews.
this is funny as hell to me.
Religious leaders make some crazy shit up. But they have the backbone to lead and people believe and follow.
evolution explains how everything descended from a common ancestor over millions of years.
creationists only seem to want to talk about what came before that common ancestor.
just for the sake of discussion let's pretend that the following is true.
Maybe I am out of order with my this comment:-
I am sure I am one of many who have benefited from Coftys O.Ps. I can also understand a poster should post with the strength of their convictions, so I have no problem with that. But I also think a poster should know when their posts become dis-respectful and meaningless to an O.P.
Now to answer why I believe in evolution. Sadly I am not well educated, I have read no books on the subject, but I think i must face reality, In my opinion if we were made in the image of God, then this image must be seen in all the torture, all the holocausts, all the evil within mankind. This is the " Self portrait of God" And this is my reason for believing in Evolution.
Now I will respect a poster who can refute my reason for believing in evolution, in their own words.

we believe in marx freud and darwin.
we believe everything is ok as long as you don’t hurt anyone to the best of your definition of hurt, and to the best of your knowledge.. we believe in sex before, during, and after marriage.. we believe in the therapy of sin.. we believe that adultery is fun.. we believe that sodomy’s ok.. we believe that taboos are taboo.. we believe that everything’s getting better despite evidence to the contrary.. the evidence must be investigated, and you can prove anything with evidence.. we believe there’s something in horoscopes, ufo’s and bent spoons.. jesus was a good man just like buddha, mohammed, and ourselves.. he was a good moral teacher though we think, his good morals were bad.. we believe that all religions are basically the same-at least the one that we read was.. they all believe in love and goodness.. they only differ on matters of creation, sin, heaven, hell, god, and salvation.. we believe that after death comes the nothing, because when you ask the dead what happens.
they say nothing.. if death is not the end, if the dead have lied, then its compulsory heaven for all excepting perhaps.
towerwatchman:-
i was wondering why I haven't visited this site in over a week:-
In your O.P I counted " We believe" 15 times. So it would appear you already know what I believe. Anyway thanks for telling me what I believe. Sadly I am sure others posters will contribute to this thead with what " they believe" . However this is a waste of time when all your previous threads are about " What you believe" which you translate as what " we believe.
my boy is going to play for watford football club!

towerwatchman...You joined 7 days ago, you have started three topics, and you have created 81 posts. But you have yet to post on any topic other than your own. I think this is a great waste, as this site can be used like a "juke box" Believe me their are other topics than your own. Also it would be nice if you started topic 4 by introducing yourself, I think it would make very interesting reading?
i'm asking this because when i was a jehovah's witness, i thought i had real friends..
Thanks for the post. This is a question I should ask myself . Have I been a real friend to all the friends I have had?

I've often heard a man's best friend is his dog. On a serious note pets can make great company for the old/ lonely and most defiantly are real friends.
