  Fernando says we are "all" dysfunctional

  by Phizzy in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  poster fernando makes the statement on another thread that we are all "fallen, imperfect, dysfunctional" .

  everybody.. i get the feeling that this is not too far removed in its thinking from the wt statement that apostates are mentally diseased, now i am aware that fernando is perpetuating the late doctrine of original sin, and his words were about all mankind, not just us on jwn.. but do you believe you are cursed by what a fictitious couple did in a fabled garden around 6,000 years ago ?

  does that make you imperfect, fallen and dysfunctional ?.

  post as truth their own views based on nothing more than their own subjective experiences and an out of date book of stories.

  Or maybe he has been observing humankind.

  It's obvious that everyone is imperfect. Not everyone's dysfuction is evident, but considering the whole of mankind it looks like there is no one functioning at 100%. Fallen? I don't know what that means so I shall not say anything about it.

  Have you wondered "WHERE else could I go"?

  by Fernando in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the question has an inbuilt fatal flaw.

  it forces only one answer nowhere.. this question is also based on a false premise that we can be right with god if we find and follow the correct rules, doctrines, moral code and knowledge.

  this is in direct opposition to what paul teaches over and over on imputed righteousness (justification, being counted as righteous, as a free gift that cannot be earned, deserved or paid for).

  if there is a Divine presence, it needs to get off its lazy backside and find me

  Do you have a son steve2?

  Would it be cool if you told your son to go do something and he said "get off your lazy backside and [find a way to] make me"?

  I like it. It is sweet and profound.

  I made some corrections in grammar. Please know I am not an authority and my English (I have heard many times) is not so good.

  "Friends can not be much. [I think she means many] This is purely my personal opinion.

  But I know some who can share such point of view.

  After all, we both have just one heart, and we can not tear it up into several "friends".

  My heart is full, friendly, and always belongs to Irina.

  My closest friend, the only one.

  Externally, we do [are] not too similar. And this is evident.

  We had different education, our personal life is different,

  as well as work activity.

  I would even say that we are on different social levels of society.

  But it doesn't bother us at all.

  After all, the friendship is no place for stereotypes.

  By the way, our friendship are last[ed] for 30 years.

  It is several months younger Irina

  Only 10 years ago, we began to notice that we are very similar in some aspects.

  And, laughing, we begin to look more carefully at each other.

  And found we are very similar internally.

  You could even say that we are "spiritual twins."

  We have the same hobby. We are crazy about the reading [of] books.

  I mean, we love to read. We can buy a book in any place.

  We call each other "book maniac." Together we can go into "a binge of Xreading."

  This interest had made us closer.

  We always have something to discuss, and speculate about anything, share [ing] our opinion[s].

  We have the same food preferences.

  We do not using [use] a diet, and don't like somehow make [ing] X prohibition[s] for ourselves.

  We [are]doing what we like. We do everything our heart desires.

  But, of course, respecting the limits of the law and decency.

  Our tastes in music are similar.

  We were [are] attracted by the same exhibitions and performances, and we visited it. [visit them]

  Our characters are similar.

  We both are well educated, kind, polite and positive in life.

  Pessimism "kills" us. We are both moderately sociable.

  We avoid some noisy companies, and prefer a quiet and peaceful dialogue with the [a] book.

  We think we are strong persons, but, in practice, we could get hurt by somebody.

  We do not like rudeness and arrogance. Most often we could [can] not make X revenge.

  We are not greedy, but parsimonious. We understand the humor, but not all.

  We are not indifferent, and can sympathize, but rarely can provide real help.

  We love to give gifts while expecting to recieve something sweet in return.

  We have shown perseverance to achieve the goals

  But sometimes, we become stubborn, likeXrams, capricious just like children,

  and too selfish in our intentions.

  We rarely recognize and admit our mistakes,

  even more rarely asking for forgiveness and forgive people.

  Sometimes it can be difficult together.

  It's just X temporary difficulties, but we can overcome it [them], easy or not.

  Our friendship has been tested by time.

  And not only by a time. We've been through a lot, for thirty years, and pricks of jealousy,

  misunderstanding and hours of alienation, minutes of envy, seconds of embarrassment,

  milliseconds of shame, moments of pride for each other,

  bitter quarrels and tears of joy of reconciliation.

  And fate has kept us from betrayal.

  Irina is kind of person with whom [it] is nice to remain silent

  Sometimes we don't need any words to understand each other.

  Just lookeding into friend's eyes and everything becomes clear.

  Sometimes, I get the feeling that we share one pair of eyes for our sight,

  hearing the world by one pair of ears, and having one heart to feel and understand.

  Very often I am thankful to our destiny for giving me a chance to find out

  and understand what friendship is, what it means to be a friend.

  And I hope that our friendship will leave this world only with us "

  We are all seeking truth and can all help each other to broaden our perspective.

  I do not believe all religionists and atheists are seeking truth.

  Especially the Jehovah's Witnesses. Their religion is all about quiting seeking because they put their trust in men who they believe have the truth.

  Morbidzbaby. That makes sense. Thanks.

  It would be difficult to claim someone was practicing loose conduct if she searched the internet. But because she had been told not to search the internet she would be guilty of brazen conduct if she did.

  the bible is not an instruction book and it is not a history book.

  it is a story.. the reason for the thread is posters keep on posting that there are other books of wisdom.

  ok. there is more than one story book too.

  OTWO, I think you might find some historical truth in Gone With The Wind. The war was real.

  I think holiness has something to do with praying "let YOUR will be done". Matthew 6:9,10.

  Of course no one can be perfectly holy except ONE.

  Phizzy lol! In what way (without an s) are you fallen, imperfect and disfunctional? I don't know. But please don't yell at me because I wasn't the one who said it, he did.
