  Is Life What You Make It?

  by Englishman in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  life is what you make it.. broadly speaking, i do believe that.

  it seems to me that most persons fall into 1 of 3 categories:.

  1. the well-balanced person who is a good achiever and enjoys the fruitage of his labours.

  Here is the psychology Englishman.

  If you say you are in the first group, then you will appear to be immodest and therefore "unbalanced" rather than "Well balanced".
  So by saying you are in the "second" group, you are in effect saying that you are aware of your weaknesses, and so therefore you really are balanced, like in the first group.
  Also by saying that the second group are " Easy pickings for an organisation that can provide instant approving friends" you are in fact edging your bets in favour of agreement from most on this board, who have once belonged to such an organisation themselves.

  So whats the purpose of your post

  I don't think you are being honest with yourself or others by making a group list such as this.

  How's that for "unbalanced then"?

  Re: Trump Card

  your argument
  We can't understand eternity, therefore it should not be a grounds for dismissing the existance of a "God without a beginning."

  I used this argument many times when I was a JW.
  This logic seems good.
  Yet the analogy should not even arise if there was a God, such as described in the Bible.
  There would be no need to theorise about time and space etc.

  "Seek and thou shall find" teaching among Christians is stupid!
  God evidently wants to play hide and seek with his creation, many claim to have found him, yet mostly all of them cannot agree on the most basic things concerning him. Such as the trinity etc.

  What God would create Beings in his image and give them the capacity to ask questions about His nature,and yet deny them the ability to understand!

  I remember some Trendy Christian who's catch phrase was

  Mohammed- 'My teachings lead to the attainment of truth'
  Buddha- 'The truth has been revealed to me'
  Jesus- 'I am the truth'

  You gotta smile
