What did President Trump say about Sweden?

by kpop in

this you will never see on the mainstream media.

before you comment watch the whole video.

One of the problem with Trump´s exclamation, is that he consider all news from the media world as “fake news”… Then he goes on and uses one of the most notorious fake news moguls and uses it for his own purposes. I cannot understand why his voters can´t see through his tactics ….

Are Children born crippled/diseased, uncared for, and dying prematurely proof that God does not exist?

by anointed1 in

are children born crippled/diseased, uncared for, and dying prematurely proof that god does not exist?.

1) what do children born healthy and well cared for prove?

2) what do babies aborted (many of whom might have led a normal healthy life, and some of whom might have contributed much to the society like many scientists, doctors, engineers ....) prove?.

It looks to me as if your questions are irrelevant to answer the question about Gods existence. None of them can solve the problem, but they can maybe explain if the questioned God is either;

1 Impotent

2 dead

3 ignorant (or doesn´t give a shit)

4 evil (or maybe psychopath)

A serious question for any who believe in any God of any religion who think God is interested in humans.

by smiddy in

the world health organization states that in the year 2015 ,5.9 million children died under the age of 5 years of age.. in 2010 the death rate for children under the age of 5 years of age was 7.6 million.

thats over 13 million in just 2 years .

i dont think you need to be a rocket scientist to conclude that since mankind has been on the earth for however long you want to believe and i`m just going on a conservative estimate of 6000 years by the above figures i quoted their would be billions of children under 5 yearsof age that would have died.

Smiddy!

I think you hit the very core of the theodicy question. God “created” death, illness. Tsunamis, earth cracks, viruses, cancer, malaria and he did really killed all humans during the flood….not only that…he is going to kill all others under terrible conditions. All other humans because they are Muslims, atheist, Buddhist, Jainism, LDS, Pentecostal, or just ignorant enough not to understand he is merciful, good, loving, caring and existing….The theodicy problem have made many intelligent men and women turning in to atheism. Bart Ehrman, Sam Harris, Christopher Hitchens, Richard Dawkins, Bertrand Russel …

If you want good arguments I think you could find them on youtube, here is a link to one oft hem,

What have been some of the funniest local needs talks that you have heard?

by DaPriest in

i remember once in berlin south germany there was a local needs part for the men only, and how they should use the toilet.

in all seriousness for ten minutes a retarded nigerian was going on about how men need to sit down when using the toilet.

no mention of anything else.. it transpired that some little kraut boy from an "interested" family would aim for the side of the toilet and leave a great big puddle for others to clean up.

Yes I do remember a fellow elderly brothers of mine, who were forced to have a speech in the late 80 ties about the danger of internet. He said that the younger ones shouldn’t at all use computers to assemble facts. It was too dangerous, and they were only one click away from, porn, bad games and other facts that that could reduce their interest in the real truth….This brother was at the time the only brother among the board of elders that had any idea of what internet was. He was picked to have the speech but I could clearly see that he didn´t like what he was saying. Today he is unfortunately dead…

Apparently, William Tyndale was an early J-Dub?

by My Name is of No Consequence in

Is the Bible from Men, NOT God?

by the-Question in

for those claiming that- how much thought or research have you done?.

objective or non-objective?.

ever read the other books claiming to be from god?

Bugbear

I´m sorry to say that your ”designer” must have drunk or out of order when he “designed” the world. Think of all diseases from mosquitos, bacteria’s, cancer, earthquakes, tsunamis, meteorites, that has almost obligated all his “creations”, all the volcano eruptions, and the famine that kills almost every minute at least 5 under aged children. (Less than 5 years) or Think of a father a God that drown all his children in a flood about 4.300 years ago….???!!!

The-Question

I don’t Think that anyone of us have the real true knowledge. We are all on a constant journey, using all our capacity to understand “the world”. Some of us don´t care much about “truth” or evil or God or “understanding”, most of us accept the context of which we are born in. I myself have spent my first 25 years as true atheist. Turned the next 15 years towards a JW. Was an elder, and graduately faded, started to study History of Ideas and Science and Philosophy…. I have read the Bible several times (of course as a JW, and elder) but the reading rose even more questions in my mind. Today I am again un absolutely convinced atheist…I admit that I haven´t read the Koran and all the Suras in there, but I think much of it is only plagiarism…from many of the Hebrew scriptures that were circling around when Mohammed went to war for creating his own Arab tribe religion. If you have the time, pls look up on youtube a professor in old Greek manuscripts namely Bart Ehrman… He has become my “latest” favorite of Schoolars,,,But I am not sure, maybe Jesus will revealed himself for me before I may rest from all the bookreadings..Since you avatar is named the Question, I think you could look up my new started tread “Question” on this site

What's preventing YOU from stopping meeting attendance?

by nicolaou in

we all 'exit' in our own way and at our own pace but i'm curious, why carry on stuffing yourself into that stiff suit and tie or meeting dress years after you realised the truth about 'the truth'?.

they kept you a prisoner, what's stopping you from leaving now that you have the key to your own cell?.

loved ones?
