Defender:

You raised one of the arguments the Watchtower tries to utilize in making its point that Babylon the Great is False Religion.

The scripture at Rev 18:24 is hyperbole. "Yes, in her was found the blood of prophets and of holy ones and of ALL those who have been slaughtered on the earth."

The same is said about the political entity of Ancient Babylon. Jeremiah 51:49 "Not only was Babylon the cause for the slain ones of Israel to fall but also at Babylon the slain ones of ALL the earth have fallen."

Don't put any more significance on this then that Babylon the Great is responsible for a lot of blood shed.

The USA makes deals with the ruling elites in various countries to keep the raw materials flowing. These elites starve their subjects and cut them out of the benefits they deserve. Pinochet, Somosa,Batista, Marcos, Shah of Iran, Saud family even Sadaam have been friends of the USA to the detriment of their people. The Taliban? Weren't they the great freedom fighters the CIA created to fight the USSR in Afghanistan? Globalism has a bloody pedigree.

Jehovah's Witnesses are not the only ones who will be saved. Even those who die at armageddon get a resurrection. But Jehovah's Witnesses will be the ones saved by escaping the USA before it is completely destroyed. No one else is going to understand or believe they have to flee. Even JW's don't understand this ...YET! But they will.

Franciois:

"All Scripture is Beneficial for teaching reproving and setting things straight." It is not necessarilly all TRUE.

The JW's have enough truth to make them a viable organization that has been culture-formed for survival. No other people have achieved the level of world unity that they have. The message of Jesus was that nationality was not a factor in God's approval. Humans have to reach that level if they are going to survive. JW's will prove this to the world during the great tribulation.

You said:

"I , however, just don't know how terrorists could pull this off"

Where there's a will there's a way. Drugs are getting into this country all the time.

Manufacturing an A-Bomb from scratch is out of the question.

It is more likely that they will get their hands on something of Soviet origin.

The Russian intelligence people would have absolutely NO problem doing this.

Whether I'm a nut case is irrelevant to whether my statements have merit. You certainly haven't said anything that would show my speculation is far-fetched.

Let me remind you that finanical,political & military leaders ALL agree it is no longer a question of whether weapons of mass destruction will be used against the USA it is only a question of when.

bendrr:

"Assumption is the lowest form of information. "

The human brain is best suited for intuitive speculation. The real world requires reaching "tentative" solutions and working hypotheses. "Assumption" is part of this way of thinking. Are you using the term "lowest" on some definite scale of "quality of information" or are you just trying to put forward your own assumption? If assumption is the lowest form of information what is the highest? How many degrees are there on this "assumed" scale? Maybe you could elaborate on your scale and give some examples. Otherwise you are just disturbed by what I wrote and you are trying to evade the possibilities I describe.

"Russia's not going to attack the U.S. by nuclear or conventional warfare because they'd lose quickly and badly."

Wishful thinking. I too engage in wishful thinking. You hope you are right. I wish that I were wrong.

Crazy:

The USSR/Russians never took M.A.D. Seriously. Their strategists have always considered a nuclear war winable for whoever strikes first - of course with high casualties. They had 20,000,000 casualties in WWII.

Authoritarian nations are willing to take big risks. Initially its no risk for Russia to hand off a few nuclear weapons to terrorists. Who would the US retaliate against when there is no return address?

Desperate people do desperate things. The embers of empire are still glowing in the psyche of the Russian people. If they don't do something soon they will go the way of Turkey.

Putin is treacherous and it is believed that he was behind the bombs that killed 300 people in Moscow in 1999. The Russians blamed those explosions on the Chechens to justify resuming the war in Chechnya. Do you think it makes any difference to that sort of person whether he blows up 300 people or 300,000 people. All is fair when the alternative is obscurity.

Neyank:

The Watchtower is in error on Babylon the Great.

There is no mention of priests, temples, altars, god's, goddesses in Rev. 18.

Babylon the Great is described as being extremely rich (nothing richer than the USA)

Babylon the Great is described as having dominance over the whole earth (since the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991 we live in what is called a monopolar world) The US has a kingdom over the kings of the earth.

What religious entity can you say keeps all those who make a living at sea rich due to her shameless luxury.

The USA is Babylon the Great.

The Wild beast that Revelation says destroys Babylon the Great is Russia. The USSR appeared slaughtered to death but it lives on as Russia.

Carmel:

It would be one thing if my statements were utterly absurd or impractable but in this post 9-11 world a lot of things that you would have ignored because of pure optimism must give way to a NEW level of pessimistic reality.

Once again the Catholics are right. The Catholics are not concerned with popular notions but with time tested principles. At the present time of hysteria many courts and local governments have passed laws which infringe on the rights of the accused in the case of molestation. You can say that it is worth it to put innocent men behind bars to save one child. But what about the children that suffer because their falsely accused father plea bargains because he cant afford the specialized attorneyes that charge high fees to defend accused molesters.

The Catholic Church is right in repudiating those bishops who cave in to the current legal fads that surround child molestation cases.
