Regardless of whether its from donations or the $800+ million proceeds from sales of Brooklyn property, it is still a win. If Candace were to donate a portion to SNAP, it would be a very valuable investment. Let's not forget that she deserves every nickel she gets. Hopefully she can invest it wisely and she and her family can benefit from it for decades or more.

Bla bla bla bla.
Hey QC, once Adam's wrong free will choice is corrected, what happens the next time someone willingly (not out of ignorance like Adam's sin was.. He was set up to fail according to Genesis) sins? Let's look into the future shall we? I am a perfect, blameless man freed from sin by Jesus. (I'll assume that we'll still have men making up rules for us to follow) I decide to sin privately... Later that night my wife and I fool around (as we often do) and she gets preggers.
Regardless of whether I am forgiven or not, is sin passed on to my child? Am I to be destroyed, devastating my wife and child? I know this is OT, but I'm curious how the hard headed believer like yourself works these things out... Considering you have no issues making up all sorts of excuses for your god.

A baby to be sacrificed on the alter of Jehovah thwarted by New Zealands High Court.
by smiddy inthe herald sun newspaper article titled "jehovahs baby rule " "a sick babyis under the guardianship of new zealand`s high court so she can receive life-saving blood transfusions.......she could develop life-threatening complications without a transfusion.. to be fair the article also states "she has been given a 90 per cent survival rate with treatment,but is likely to need a blood transfusion-which her parents will not allow as they are jehovah`s witnesses.. my observations /concerns are this : jehovah`s witnesses refuse blood transfusions.a baptised jw who takes a blood transfusion can/will be disfellowshiped for not abiding by jw`s doctrine.going against gb policy direction is causing division.. jehovah`s witnesses do not beleive in donating blood to a blood bank even if it is theirs for their own private exclusive use .. official teaching on blood by jehovah`s witnesses is, it is not to be stored, it is to be poured out on the ground.it is not to be used for any purpose.. jehovah`s witnesses will not use blood and bone in their gardens,they will not eat blood sausage,and a married couple will certainly not engage in sexual activity when the wife is menstruating.. the dilemma/inconsistencys :why is it only a conscience matter, no penaltys applied for anyone to accept every fraction of blood that is donated by other people.?
they will use blood that is donated by other people , processed in a laboratory into various fractions and injected into their own bodies , and they dont see a problem with this hypocricy ?
double standards ?.

Recent Global Cooling Controversy
by metatron inhttp://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2415191/global-cooling-arctic-ice-caps-grows-60-global-warming-predictions.html.
climate change is a legitimate concern - especially as it affects poor nations.
however, the subject has been twisted by greedy global elites resulting in disappointments (if you wish to call them that!

So, mp? Is banning SUVs necessary to cure climate change?

Why would they mention the 'old light'?
by Captain Blithering ini don't get why they opened the article 'when will these things be' by using old old light not believed since the late 60's?
.
seems a bit idiotic to draw attention to past mistakes that are long forgotten in the minds of the r&f, as opposed to stuff that is fairly recent that has warranted 're-examination'.

Its to appear forthcoming and honest. Only apostates would know better, so it's a good play on their part.
Ask most JWs if the Borg has been honest in admitting their mistakes, every one will tell you it has.

WHy Have You Turned YOur Back On The Messiah
by cassuk11 inok so you got out of the watchtower society after discerning it was false.
what is amazing is how many have turned their back on the king or was it they had no faith in the first place and the spiritual food they received did not help them stand upon a rock.
jesus the christ your saviour is a living breathing being with emotions.

Well I wanted to get to know the king, but he failed to leave any information about himself that wasn't incoherent or self-contradicting. What's more, he has decided to kick back and chill, leaving us humans to take care of things ourselves... Which we have done far better than he ever did. So as far as I am concerned, if he's too weak to do anything meaningful for us or leave us some information that isn't full of bullshit (bible) then he doesn't deserve my worship.

Evolution is Crap, there I said it!

Vanderhoven7 - how nice of god to take a break from his busy job of infecting poor people with AIDS to heal your daughter's sore back! Too bad he can't find the time to do anything actually meaningful.

I would LOVE to see how the WT writers squirm their way out of that.. In most of our lifetimes we will see the US crumble spectacularly. Personally I don't look forward to it, based on how it will affect the world economy for a while. Many Americans still deny that they are screwed... They can't imagine their beloved country falling apart.

QC, I agree with you. The mathematics of the universe are beautiful. What is especially beautiful to me is how it all happens without god. We now understand how it likely came to be. We also understand how the automatic processes brought the universe to where it is. Nowhere has there ever been a need for a creator. Not "in the beginning," not now.
How do you reconcile god's absenteeism? And don't give me that "gods ways are mysterious, universal sovereignty" baloney. Why will god take a break from giving starving kids AIDS in third world countries to help Christians in meaningless areas of their lives, but won't take a second to actually do any good? Is he not able?
When a natural disaster happens, we legally call it an 'act of god.' Why does god get the blame for insurance purposes but not for every other tragedy? Did he do any of it? Does he do ANY good at all? Why is he such an asshole?
You say you cannot be an atheist because you see purpose in creation.. Ok fine be that way. But answer this: given my points above, does he deserve to be revered and worshipped? If he is real, does he deserve this royal treatment? Do you believe in the bible? Do you believe he actually did all those things in the OT? If he did then he certainly is capable of causing all kinds of harm today. Why worship him? I'd say a block of wood deserves more worship. At least you can light it on fire and get some real benefit from it. Come on QC, make me a believer again.
Oh and if you wouldn't mind actually responding instead of copy/pasting YouTube vids that you don't understand, that would be great.
