as some of you may know this week is the most holy week in the christian faith.
it is the week that jesus, true god and yet true man, willingly gave up his life including all of the pain that went with his cruel death, to save us from our sins.
he opened the door for all to be saved and have eternal life.
I agree with your view on sin Derek. But I think the word 'sin' was invented by the priests who wrote the hebrew scriptures to keep men in subjection to them. It also proved to be a veritable cash cow.

ive only been on this board for less then a month.
how sad for me to see that for many people who are disfollewshipped still think in fear and quilt.
-------people who kill themselves just cant live in the world they created, they are in hell.. many people on this web site are in hell too, they cant go into the real world, and they cant go back to the borg.. my suggestion is since your out right now.. take some time.
While we're at it, pass me the beer and pretzels. Pass me the remote,pass the foot stool. AAAh, I like this real world, looks like i'm in it for the long haul.

when you left the jw's, did you remain a christian?
the reason i ask, is that when i left the witnesses i explored all kinds of concept and religions and even attended a few churches.
i soon found that i was attracted to new age and pagan believes.
When I left, I hardly gave much thought to any higher powers. I was more concerned with making up for lost time. For years I would have labeled myself agnostic, but in the last 10 years have been more atheist (with pagan tendencies). Until recent months i've avoided all forms of religion and religious conversation.

why is it that modern justice says entrapment is unfair?
are they more just than god?
consider the case of adam and eve: there they were, more innocent than any humans who had ever lived.
Wow what an interesting line of thought Pat. I guess if it happened in more recent times we'd have to call it Edengate.

achristian believes those who think the bible teaches that the flood was global look foolish.
he wrote, .
i encourage all christians to investigate the possibility that the bible does not really teach that the whole earth was flooded at the time of noah.
I can answer one of KJV's about the dove. Most of the biblical account of the flood is taken from previous flood stories. A dove was used in the Epic of Gilgamesh, the writer of Genesis just borrowed it from this account.

does anyone really care what active witnesses think of them?
i ask, because on many of the ex-witness boards i see a lot of mention of what people think others say behind their back.
personally, i hope the witnesses think i am the devil himself and fear me upon sight of me.
Personally Ken, I don't care what most people think of me. But my Mom and other family members are witnesses and I do care about them. They don't like alot of the things I do, but I would like to think that they still care about me as a person.
By the way, I recognize your dragon picture, is that from a D&D boxed set?
