Meh.... Christian art had it's place for centuries. I like classics, but it's time for the future.
This, I didn't really find appealing at all. No apologies.
i've stumbled across a most creative artful photography, placing jesus in contemporary scenarios.. http://www.thejourneysproject.com/c-294-fine-christian-art.aspx.
for a mere $1,000 i too, could have jesus working his makeover in my bedroom.
ooh, la la.. i am having strong and mixed reactions to this work, and i welcome your input..

i do not wish to debate anything here like i have said in the past i have much respect for most on this forum (believers and non believers) i am simply wondering if the atheist or non god believers every worry about what if your wrong?
it seems that many who were jw for so many years attach jehovah/yahweh with the watchtower and since the wt is wrong than god does not exist.
i ask this question only because i care about people and salvation thats why i want to help as many as possable come out of this cult,and since i truly believe in god i dont know what is in the cinscience of those who dont.
hardly would you look at ur car and say wow evolution design this car well? no you know a person designed it. would you go and focus on theorys to prove
the car was an accident? the point is creation reveals the creator.
Cars have evolved, from their primitive forms. Think about the Ford Model-T, and what it's changed too. Of course, humans designed it, but it had to go through a process to get to their current forms. The Ford Crown Victoria didn't just appear out of nowhere. There had to be a series of innovations that lead to it.
I also don't understand this statement:
okay, i watched the video kind of reminds me of the ravens playing the steelers. whats ur thoughts?
Do football players kill each other? Not quite the greatest analogy you could come up with... but maybe you can explain and share your thoughts. If God designed everything, why did he design predation?
definition: a thought-terminating cliche is a commonly used phrase, sometimes passing as folk wisdom, used to quell cognitive dissonance.. here's mine: we don't believe that way ..... we are christians in this home..

Unstopable, do you believe God created predation? Cheetahs with their magnificent speed to hunt down their prey; lions with their huge claws, powerful bodies, and flesh-ripping teeth; or even this:
&feature=g-vreca blog on huffington post.... interesting thoughts...that mostly would go flying over the average jw's head, those that think they know the bible oh so well.... i've highlighted certain points that pertain (technically they all do, but some really stand out) to how jws view things.. my main reason for posting this is so i can find it easily later, as it'll disappear from huffpo eventually.. .

when it comes to the bible, modern americans are at a distinct disadvantage.
the structure of Noah's ark is plain to see. It is damaged by time and landslides but plain to see.
*Face palm*
Sorry my friend. This has been thoroughly debunked before.
i have mentioned a few times on this board that my jw's brother just will not let it go with me and continues to prove to me that jesus disciples and other prophets in the bible have given "false" prophecies" or "wrong expectations" concerning the end of the world.
he feels that jw's should not be condemned for their many false predictions.
as always the first thing he will tell me is that "jw's admit to their mistakes therefore we are not false prophets.
This just proves the essence of why debating the Bible is useless. It's just a book open to innumerable interpretations. Case in point, 30,000+ Christian denominations. Care to play a game of Russian roulette?
to the household of god, israel, and those who go with... may you all have peace!.
you may have seen where i shared this before but my understanding is that it needs to be shared again... because there are those who will benefit.
i won't go into my usual tome... but only state: .
The only thing I have to add, is something someone posted somewhere else. (too many somes, lol)
Can you abstain from (noun)?
The prohibition in Acts has an implicit verb, for in what manner were Israelites told to abstain from blood? They were told to abstain from eating blood. Seems pretty simply to me. Of all the things that are a 'conscience matter', how could this one not be, especially considered their absurd fraction policy?
Regardless of 'sin' or no 'sin', which I don't even believe in anyways, its a rule that has been costly. We can never have those lives back. Yet, JWs are among the first human guinea pigs for bloodless transfusions, so should we also be thanking them for advancing this practice? I love contradictions.
some of our writers do the above.
is it automatic formatting on your computer or do you do it deliberately?
i am interested in the whys and wherefores of how you write.
I use it. It was how I was taught in middle school typing class. Let's test the difference.
With 1 space. 1. 1. 1. 1.
With 2 spaces. 1. 1. 1. 1.
I like 2 spaces better.

i know for a fact i only used 10% as a jw.lol.
how can you use only a percentage of a functioning.
brain.
Hubby pulls out this urban myth from time to time. He imagines the New World Order where he will have the chance to fill up all his brain with marvellous information...given enough millenia.
They need that carrot dangling in front of them...
