  Attacking Newbie JW's

  by VioletAnai in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was attacked here when i first admitted that i was studying with the jw's.

  i also noted that blessed_something or other (sorry, bad memory) was attacked also....just because we say something positive about the jw's!

  i think that is mighty unfair and defeats the purpose of you trying to turn us against the jw's.

  if there god is supposed to be the all-powerful, backing their organisation fully, men being led by god's spirit etc, then what of the lack of activity within china which has in excess of a billion inhabitants?

  is their god not partial to the chinese?

  what of india also?

  Question for those who believe the bible.

  by seven006 in

  a thread started by realist which mentioned the flood and the disappearance of the dinosaurs got me thinking.

  since i do not own a bible i had to download one from the internet to check a few things out (my computer is really pissed at me now).

  it's been many years since i read the bible but i needed to be accurate in my research to ask my question.

  ) some of the incidents which occured totally blows my mind.

  Suffering

  by Realist in

  2. beliefs

  brief question: if the sin committed by adam and eve is responsible for suffering how can one explain the fact that animals died long before that event?

  or are animals not considered to suffer?

  this has frustrated me for a while.... ok, pretend that jerusalem was destroyed in october 607 bce.. ok then, 1 year later it would be in october 606 bce, right?.

  and 2 years later it would have been in october 605 bce?.

  .... and 606 years later it would be in october 1 bce?.

  I can prove that God does not exist.

  by LucidSky in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  just thinking.... i can believe that a higher intelligence entity (hie) cannot be proven.

  i am willing to accept that a hie cannot even be definitively induced, even for marvels that we cannot demonstrate at this time (e.g.

  natural transformation of elements into living material).

  if my "not being df'd" stumbles you, you don't have to worry about that for my "hour" has drawn very close.. aside from that, my lord wants me to say something specifically to you and those who are with you (your "household").. he said to tell you:.

  mds, stop this!

  stop what you are doing.
