I'm with steph on this. Try to dump the old wt judgemental/grading habit. Try to see all as your brothers, just that most aren't where you are mentally. It appears there is room on this earth for every kind of wierdo to do his own thing, even one like me.

this is a short article from breakpoint and i think that the writer explains the christian view on recent events.
i hope it reaches those who need it.. this shows why christians are different though being capable of some rather nasty acts.
to my usual detractors, save your bluster as i will not respond to anyone who hijacks this thread with personal attacks.

Are you saying that all baptists refuse military service?
The baptist churches i visited were not too bad, their cage is much bigger than the wt cage, but it is still a cage, and anyone who has experienced jesus doesn't need a cage. Oh, he can stay in the cage, but he doesn't need it. Tell me rex have you seen jesus?

Good point outlaw
I'm not sure if you were thinking of the following angle, though.
The wt claims, as per hebrews ch 11, that all the ot faithfuls were jws. Those jehovah worshippers just loved killing, torturing, pillaging and carrying away virgins, 'cus jehovah told 'em to. It would appear the catholics and muslims are just following the ot examples, who of course, were jehovahs witnesses.

control religion and you control the people.
the way to control religion is to control the sacred writings.
the easiest way to control the sacred writings is to write the sacred writings and declare them inspired or divinely directed.

Yes, paul was a jew, probably a pharisee.-phil3:5
'much of the OT is borrowed and/or influenced by surrounding older and contemporaneous myth/legend/religion and cultures' True, although faithful fundamentalist types will not accept this. Their claim is that the bible is god inspired. The jews incorporated selected strains of the above in their own writings. By making it part of their sacred scriptues/culture/belief system, it bacame part of the jewish sacred writings. Since they incorporated it, i am considering it jewish. Rom3:2 claims the sacred writings were entrusted to the jews.
Was mohammed inspired to write the koran, or did he base it on the bible? He may have been spiritual, i don't know, but comparing the stories in the two books, i would say he borrowed from the bible.
Call it what you want, according to the above analysis, the koran indirectly and the bible directly originated w the jews.

Having forgiven bin ladin, and having a love for him, what would be the appropriate punishment that you would prescribe for him for his responsibility of more than 5000 murders, in the eyes of your god?

Christans sacred writings were all written by jews anywhere from 2-3000 yrs ago, per your statement, all christians are controlled by those jews.
Mohammed based his koran on the bible. He was controled by those jews and he controls muslims.
Conclusion: All christians and all muslims, some of whom are now engaged in a holy war with each other, are controled by the same jews who wrote the bible.

A while ago, i noticed that the trend of those on this board seemed to be that christians were burning to bomb bin ladin, while pagans/atheists/agnostics were a bit cooler to the idea.
