So how would prove the devil wrong for his rebellion?
I'd create man, let him be influenced by the devil. Then I'd proceed to inflict punishment on his descendants for the next 6,000 years. Problem is: how does that prove the devil wrong? Doesn't it prove that I'm an unforgiving, insensitive, egotistical father?

Does God define "right and wrong" or is there an intrinsic 'good' ?
by Simon ini don't personally believe in a 'god' but i wonder for those who do .... is there an intrinsic "right and wrong" or moral code that would exist whether or not there was a god?.
to put it another way, is what we believe is "right or wrong" based on whatever god decides is right or wrong (ie.
he set's the standard) or is it an intrinisc thing that he also must adhere to in order to be thought of as 'good'.. if god has to adhere and go along with some intrinsic value system then does this effect any claims to be omnipotent and always good?

What a fascinating topic!! Right and Wrong are concepts that I feel every human develops independant of any thought of a God. It's right to eat your carrots, it's wrong to put your hand on the stove ring. .
Do not commit adultery!! Why?? Not because it's socially reprehensible but Because God says it is a Sin. Do not Steal, Do not Kill, Do Not Covet your Neighbours Arse!! These are all wrongs according to most religions. However, I feel that any society would reach these same conclusions without having to be told by a 'Higher Power'.
People living in a society have to abide by a basic code of conduct in order to survive as a society. When one steps outside this code, they are punished. If there is an intrinsic good, it is motivated by the need to survive.
I think when God was invented, He was instilled with the knowledge gained by generations of social co-existence. They called this wisdom.

I'm curious. Are there sites which severely criticize other religions?
by berylblue ini am asking this because i was always taught that the reason there are so many anti-wts sites is because witnesses have the true religion, and are therefore a special target of satan.
satan already "has" the persons in all the other religions, so he doesn't need to whip them up into a frenzy over the lamentable things going on in their particular churches.
satan does, however, use persons (ostensibly, like me) to slander the true god and his organization.

Beryl,
One doesn't need a web site to expose the Catholic church, one merely needs a history book. For years the witnesses have been trying to suppress all negative publicity, much like the Catholic Inquisition. It's funny, the longer they go on the more they resemble the Babylon the Great that they despise so much.
When I left the org. there was absolutely no literature to be found about the WTS, other than that they printed themselves. Modern jw's and ex-jws are lucky to have access to places like this.

Can Good Exist Without Evil??
by Sargon insome ponderings:.
the laws of physics tell us that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
good and evil are equal and opposites of the same concept.

If Adam and Eve were so happy, why did they feel they needed something else? If they were truly happy they would not have been vulnerable to Satan's temptations.
