  Biggest impact on humans

  by menrov in

  do not know where to post this but i like to hear your views on what you think had the biggest impact on humans.

  for me, 2 things:.

  music: every human listens one way or another to music and will likely have some sort of emotion.

  I`ve been re-thinking this question

  Biggest impact on humans

  and have come to the conclusion that belief in a GOD has been the biggest impact on humans and not just Jesus or Mohammad or Buddha or Vishnu or any other prophet in the world ,but it is simply a belief in a GOD.

  Sure Christians of all persuasions have been responsible for the deaths of millions in the name of GOD or Jesus but so have all the other religions throughout history killed and slaughtered in the name of this or that particular GOD that they worship.

  In my previous post I singled out followers of Jesus Christ of slaughtering millions of people in his name and really all they were doing was following in the footsteps of Jesus father Jehovah who himself was responsible for the death of millions of people up until the time of Jesus Christ

  Like Father like Son ?

  However ALL GOD`s have been responsible for billions of death in the name of religion whether "true" or "false"

  it doesn`t matter billions of people died and that is the Biggest impact "GOD" has had on humans.

  Signing Away Your Hard Earned Cash

  by Disassociated Lady 2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  reading the meeting workbook study for this week to see what my family will be reading at their meeting, once again they are asking for members for generous gifts not only from money they earn but also part of any investments they may have and making future arrangements for them to inherit after death through their wills.

  take a look at the lower part of the page on this link, its awful!

  the WT has a hotline you can call if you have any questions on how to donate!!

  Last time i checked the WT doesn't have a hotline to call about questions regarding the society or to answer bible questions.

  I thought that was worth repeating dbq407

  The God of the Bible ,the Koran,the book of Mormon and any other religious writing put out by man or woman ? A BIG NO

  So in that sense I`m an Atheist now from previously a true believer in the past.

  Are their higher intelligent beings out their in the universe who may have been responsible for life on earth ?

  I dont know , what I do know is that their is no higher power that we need to worship to gain his/her approval.

  October the 1st 1991 WT that picture condemns God Jehovah like no other .

  Then their was the one about "Youths Who Put God First In Their Lives" children that died needlessly

  What a sick organization posing as a religion.

  Jehovah is supposed to be the Almighty God Creator of Heaven and Earth and no less the Universe ? Right ?

  A watchtower once said he is the ultimate chemist that figures he created the Universe.

  So for the love of me I cannot see why Jehovah God want`s YOUR hard earned money that you need to survive and exist in this world

  he has permitted and actually supports.Rom.13:1-7

  
  and how does that scripture compare with 2 : cor.4;4 And lets not forget Matt.4:8 to provide the 3 witness rule.

  The bottom line is why would the Almighty God ,the Creator of the Universe need YOUR MONEY to accomplish his purpose ?

  a watcher :

  Jesus Christ: who or what could possibly have a bigger impact on humans than the son of God.

  Well your right ,Christians in the name of Jesus have killed/slaughtered millions of people in the name of Jesus over the Centuries.

  And if Jesus Christ disagrees with those Christians acting in his name he has been bloody well silent for the past 2000+ plus years .

  I think that is a big impact on humans whether he is really the son of God or not the son of God.

  This week's "Give Us Your Money" meeting item.

  by freddo in

  2. friends

  if you went to it, (or go later this week) how was it handled?

  just the video or some commentary too?.

  i have heard of a few negative comments from some that attended - one jw even openly said to me "not very encouraging, all they go on about is money lately" and another (a serving elder, no less) said "someone's got to pay for all those lawsuits".

  . By encouraging EOL donations they are tapping into a source of income that reflects the failure of their own doctrine. I suspect the irony escapes the majority of course
