The true story of the Bible regarding God's view of Genocide
by Christ Alone in
1. watchtower
2. bible
yes, i already know the atheist's anger towards god, and the attempts to erroneously state that he advocated genocide, which .

i am ready to hear all the anger directed towards the god that these men and women state that they don't believe in.

they might as well be angry with the fsm.

Why do prisoners need to hear the word of God, not the words of atheists?
by His Excellency in
1. jw
2. friends
sorry for my english, i'm just a beginner.

i have recently been thinking of why prisoners are often visited by pastors and not atheists?, and i have also wondered what an atheist would tell to comfort someone who is in prison.. for instance, what will you recommend for an inmate to read if you visit him or her in a prison cell?, "god is not great- how religion poisons everything?

" or "what does the bible really teach"?..

New here
by His Excellency in
1. jw
2. friends
for the record, i am not a native english speaker, infact i recently just started studying english about 18months ago.

so apologies for any error you may encounter in the process of making sense of my logic.. i am from a small village in a destitute and war ravaged african country, 80 percent of people in my town live on less than 50cent in a day and myself included, no roads, no hospital, no public institution, no social welfare support, no national security institutiion, nothing, just tribal factions exchanging agricultural produce and i have always wondered why jehovah would have to put the preaching work ahead of a poverty eradication program at this desperate time of our existence.. .

it was an emotional adventure on finding answers to that question that led me here.

Dubs badmouthing children
by rebel8 in
1. jw
2. friends
i was remembering the 1980s when it was in vogue to shun children.

they went through a fad when they'd call unbaptized excommunication as "disassociation".

within a short period of time, most of the teens and preteens were "disassociated" or disfellowshipped.
