when i first joined the forum a short while ago the aforesaid book was recommended to me after i ranted about the disgusting, genocidal machinations of jehovah.

nathaniel merritt, although i don't concur with all he says, is a very brave and bright guy.

his abhorence of the nightmarish evil perpetrated by this god mirrored the thoughts that i've been having for a few years now.

russia and china are calling for the u.n. to be in charge of the war on terror.. leaders say u.n. must direct terror fight:.

its been my opinion that when responcibility for the war on terror gets turned over to the u.n. they will in time conclude (with god's help) that 'religion' is the main problem and has to be eliminated.. what do you think?

Society's position on illegal aliens
by sir82 in
1. jw
2. friends
one of the things that has always irked me is the society's position on illegal aliens.. paraphrasing a us boe letter (can't remember the date, not a recent one though), elders were instructed that they are not "policemen", not responsible for enforcing "caesar's laws".

so, if there are any illegal aliens in the congregation, elders do not report them to any authority.

no (congregational) disciplanary action at all is taken against them.. however, illegal aliens are not "exemplary", in that they are knowingly breaking caesar's laws.

finally, the dubs pried themselves away from the coffee shop this morning and 'worked' my neighborhood.

i saw them coming so i had to decide what topic to discuss.

well after the intro, i decided to explain, that yes i have read the bible, and i feel the god portrayed in it is very brutal and cruel to his creation.
