  Question for Cofty about God and Bible defences

  by slimboyfat in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i thought about sending you a pm but it might make an interesting open discussion.

  i've seen you express the lack of good pro-god ex-witnesses to engage with.

  i don't know about ex-witnesses, but there are a few witnesses who've written on these issues.

  Defending the flood is like defending leprechauns.

  There is no proof and no evidence - and the reasons it could not be are to obvious and numerous to list.

  Changes and why

  by Formerbrother in

  so far these are all the recent changes i know of, please add more if i have missed anything.. 1. all construction projects have either been stopped or reduced.. 2. all bethels are downsizing by at least 20% within one year of the announcement, and almost certainly more in years to come.. 3. remaining belelites will have to make their own food, do their own washing and cleaning.. no more laundry department, no more kitchen and waiters, no more housekeeping!.

  and you still only get 80 per month, but no rent or bills, and food will be provided in the family fridge but you have to prepare it yourself.. as to why, it has been said several times officially its not because of a lack of funds, but how could that possibly be the truth?.

  I dont think all laundry can be done away with because of suits needing to be dry cleaned.

  Not that any of that actually happened - but it seems no one back then was confused by the word:)

  This is a good one too.

  When a man strikes his male or female slave with a rod so hard that the slave dies under his hand, he shall be punished. If, however, the slave survives for a day or two, he is not to be punished, since the slave is his own property. (Exodus 21:20-21 NAB)

  p.s.

  Oubliette

  Judges 19:24, 29: "Here are my virgin daughter and this man’s concubine. Let me bring them out, and you can humiliate them if you must ... When he reached his house, he took the slaughtering knife and took hold of his concubine and cut her up limb by limb into 12 pieces and sent one piece into each territory of Israel."
  Just one of my favorites! So upbuilding - just must have been great being a woman back then!Lott was a great Dad too!
  god is great and loves woman!

  I guess the GB wont consider this one for a future text - would be embarrassing :) Warwick much:)

  Luke 14:28
  28 For example, who of you wanting to build a tower does not first sit down and calculate the expense to see if he has enough to complete it? 29 Otherwise, he might lay its foundation but not be able to finish it, and all the onlookers would start to ridicule him,

  How about:

  Ezekiel 23:20

  "There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses."

  NWT
  "She lusted after them like the concubines of men whose male members are like those of a donkey and whose genitals are like those of a horse."
