  The Only True Doctor – A Parable

  by goatshapeddemon in

  2. beliefs

  a friend of mine recently found out a few years back that she had an aggressive form of breast cancer.

  she went to many doctors, but all of them told her she had to have a mastectomy and undergo radiation therapy.

  that seemed really unappealing to her.

  The true story of the Bible regarding God's view of Genocide

  by Christ Alone in

  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.

  The original story reported by the news was that the hitchhiker tried to control the guy using the blunt end of the axe. When that didn't work he used the sharp side. They said there was a lot of blood.

  The Final Solution.. to the Anointed question.

  by cyberjesus in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  this cult who thought at some point that all of them were going to go to heaven realized that their numbers were growing therefore they had to create another group to explain the delay on their own rapture and their predicted end of the world.

  they then created a separation of categories... the originals, the old ones, in other words the anointed, a selected groups that you cant be part of because only 144,000 are selected, so they had to come up with all sort of excuses why the end was not coming.

  so many explanations to jesus words.. they were buying time, the end had to come at any moment, 1941... 1975... before the end of the century.... but at the last moment this cultish doctrine back fired on them... the number of the originals kept growing... these "divinely" (self) appointed group who wrote countless letter of bible interpretation to gods headquarters kept increasing.

  Lance Armstrong

  i've been following the lance armstrong debacle, although i'm not really interested in sports.

  it's interesting how at first it was hard to believe that he was guilty of doping, because of his public image.

  it seems, though, that the evidence is overwhelming.

  Is transfusing your own oxygen rich blood really cheating? No drugs involved. I think it's been established that his heart is bigger than most, I doubt seriously that if I was transfused as a cyclist myself i could have done what he did.

  As far as I know, he was tested to the extreme when he was racing. So now, do they have some new methods that find him in violation. If he passed by the rules then they should leave him alone. This does nothing but ruin the sport.

  Just curious BizzyBee, do you have any proof of these claims?

  Do you have any idea how many people (crazies, prisoners, mentally ill, etc.) try to sue the President of the United States every day for various reasons?
