Little Thought for Lurkers, oringinal sin?
by Diogenesister injust one little thought....adam & eve ate the fruit from the tree "of the knowledge of good & evil".
so..in other words, before they ate they did not know right from wrong...hmmmm so how can you blame someone who does not know right from wrong?.
for a crime to take place in human law you must have the act - 'actus reus' - and the guilty mind or 'mens rea' as it is termed.

They knew it was wrong (and deadly) because God told them so. That is the point. -

Eagerly anticipating the death of billions!
by stuckinarut2 insurely someone who eagerly looks forward to the death of billions of people (including babies and children) is not emotionally healthy?.

The sole purpose of the Watchtower is to keep people out of Christian Churches and out of the Bible they can't control.
I 2nd that analysis. So much of the WT doesn't make sense untill you see what Jesus was actually offering people and work backwards to the teachings of the Watchtower.

Just read "Zealot - The Life And Times Of Jesus Of Nazareth"
by EdenOne inso, keeping in mind that mrs. eden isn't so comfortable with english, i have been searching for books on the subject of the historical jesus and who wrote the bible, and i got very frustrated because there's not a lot of those in my native language.
most of what i read in english simply hasn't been translated, which is a shame.
in any case, i managed to get two: bart ehrman's "misquoting jesus" and reza aslan's "zealot".

Were Adam and Eve the only humans created?
by heyfea inmy husband asked me a questions that kind of stumped me for a moment.
he asked, in genesis, when cain killed abel, and god, as punishment cursed him and drove him from the land, making him a restless wanderer, why did cain say to god that the punishment was too hard; that anyone who found him would kill him?
who was going to kill him?

You can imagine how many people could be produced in say 500 years from an original pair. So, the edict does not need to apply to a population living at the exact same time that the mark was placed on Cain.
- just my take

Circa 1975, an elder stated at the book study that we would be in charge of taming fish in the millennium reign.
I had a really neat dog at the time. I was 12 and taught her several really interesting tricks. It wasn't easy.
I couldn't imagine what it might be like to tame fish. Still can't.

How about this:
I recently was challenged by someone to defend the WT's teaching that Jesus isn't the Mediator for the Great Crowd. Since this wasn't a teaching the apostles knew about, how can we explain that we are not under the curse in Galatians:
But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. Gal. 1: 8
