  what does it matter how we live?

  i was reading ecclesiastes 1 -3 today(excerpt is from chapter 2)..... and i'm not a bible scholar and dont claim any wisdom... but these scriptures seem to just say you live and you die regardless of who or what you do in life.

  its all vanity...... is this the true wisdom of the bible?

  that we exsist not by or for any reason.. we just exsist then we die..... end of story?

  Of course it matters how we live. But unfortunately a lot of people dont care about others which is pretty much what that passage says. Someone who does nothing but good all their lives making people happy and helping people gets the exact same end as a pedophile or suicide bomber. Whats the point? This really gets to me. Surely this isnt all there is to it, there has to be something that makes all the suffering worth while.

  do you believe the bible is the inspired word of god?

  have you somehow attempted to prove this to yourself or have you just accepted it?

  The Word of God is NOT a book!

  John 1:1, John 1:14, Revelation 19:13 all say that Christ is the Word.

  Do I believe if the scriptures are inspired of God? Yes I do. Do I beleive the bible is? DEFINITELY not.

  I dont think there are any accurate scriptures left now. They have all been tainted and corrupted by evil men with their own agenda's and hide behind their god and religion to carry it out. The bible is a collection of historical stories, myths and scripture purposely collated to control humanity and strike the fear of their god into people. This was true before Christ came, and is even more so now.

  The basic message is still there amongst all the poison, but dont bother following the bible to the letter as that is dangerous.

  two by-elections held yesterday showed a 21%-27% swing away from the labour party !.

  i will be extremely surprised if he's still the leader by the time the next general election is held.

  Tony Blair is like a really bad smell that just wont go away..... we are stuck with him. I wish he would go but he wont, and even if he did, nothing would change.

  "Those days will be cut short " - question

  by Sirona in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  my jw friend (the only one who does keep in touch) is really considering "fading".. the trouble is that she was raised a jw and is finding it all really difficult, plus her father is a prominent jw.. she mentioned to me the scripture (matthew?

  ) that says that the last days would have to be cut short for the sake of the holy ones.

  she says they always taught that this referred to the anointed and that they'd all die off if jehovah didn't cut short the days of the time of the end.. she says that if they ever change thoughts on this doctrine she would immediately leave.

  Court Ruling...SMART

  by Yerusalyim in

  1. social
  2. current

  well, the ultra intelligent palestinian terrorists took any good will the palestinians might have gotten from the (meaningless) ruling by the world court that wall the israelis are building is illegal by blowing up another israeli bus...thus proving the need for the wall.

  israel rejected the authority of the world court when this whole thing started, sending as their only piece of evidence a bus which had been blown up by a palestinian terrorist.

  more meaningful was the israeli supreme court ruling that about 25 miles of the wall had to be torn down and re-routed...this will happen.

  Unlikely, but what if this happened re:Iraq

  by IronGland in

  saddam is put on trial and he is sentenced to life in prison instead of death.

  the iraqis get things under control enough to where in a year or so the americans pull their troops out.

  once the americans are gone, the 'provisional government' frees saddam, says 'welcome back mr president' and he takes charge of iraq again.

  So, I don't believe that there has yet been a handover of power and responsibility, just accountability.

  Exactly. I was listening to Tony Blair's BS on the subject and it was so obvious what he was saying was nothing more than dumping all the crap wiht the trial and everything on Iraq so when stuff goes wrong, he wont be accountable for it. Letting America take the lead in all of this is him doing the same. He wants to look like he is doing the right thing, but if things go wrong there are people he can shift the blame to.

  It all just seems strange... trying him on Iraqi soil, surely it should be done on neutral ground and with neutral, unbiased judges?

  Should Saddam Be Executed If Found Guilty?

  by Englishman in

  there is only so far you can go in inflicting just punishment upon an evil person.

  yet how evil is someone who has murdered one person in cold blood, compared to someone who is guilty of genocide?

  the crime of murder is heinous in itself, but does the fact that someone may be responsible for millions of deaths make the crime of multiple murder a million times worse than the person who kills only once?

  I agree, let him rot in jail and be forced to live with himself.

  I am wonderign tho, when will other leaders be forced to stand trial for their actions, such as a certain American president and an English prime minister?

  I totally agree.

  However maybe its good in a way they are printing this... the more of this disgusting stuff (they truly ARE a disgusting thing standing in a holy place) they print.... the more people will eventually see how warped and twisted their "god" the watchtower really is.
