Encouraging sigleness

by Dudu in

do you think is one of the unhealthy teachings among the wt?

i mean humans has been created with emotional and physical needs that relationships provide, right?.

I took their advice on singleness and divorced my hardcore JW wife. Never been happier.

Note that "single" should in no way be taken to mean "not having sex".

having seen in history how the catholic church/roman empire systematically wiped the gnostics from the face of the earth and attempted to do the same with all of their writings, i find it appalling when lies are told to this very day about what really happened in the first 300 years of "christianity".

regardless of what you might believe about the gnostics, they had a right to live and breathe on this earth just like anyone else.

to defend the church's position and say that it was the gnostics that "corrupted christianity" is not only woefully ignorant, but in my opinion, is like a nod of agreement that these people were a threat to the church and deserved to die.

what are everyone's thoughts on the concept of a solar deity in relation to the jesus story?.

now this is something i have entertained over the years, the stunning relationship of the solar myths and the way the gospels describe jesus' death and resurrection as compared with the roman saturnalia.

it's odd that jw's are about to recognize that christmas doesn't originate with christ (thank god for that because i still celebrate christmas and don't care if it has anything to do with a religious figure or not, i celebrate it because i like the idea of giving people gifts, i love the smell of the trees, i love the lights, snow, all of it... i could care less if a thousand year old prophet in another continent thinks it's a "custom of the nations".... well i love america and it's a nation that deserves to be thankful for it's luck of the draw, and if it wants to mix customs and holidays, so be it..... your thoughts, fellow ex-socks?.

I am sticking with Star Trek. They have accurately predicted more things than the Bible.

I don't have Aspbergers. I'm just an asshole, dear. But now a more improved, judicious asshole. And humble. Like Moses. ;)
