  He might be more comfortable teaching at a Catholic school. They've got Jesus strung up on a cross in every classroom.

  Except, oops, even the Catholics teach evolutionary theory.

  OKAY, GAME OVER! The number one reason the New Testament amounts to bunk

  by Terry in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  for me, the dead giveaway is this.

  jesus wrote nothing.. stop and think about that.. if jesus were the authentic messiah, his ministry would not simply be local.. his instructions, his mission, the details of his teachings would be too precious to risk leaving it in the hands of "men unlettered (illiterate) and ordinary (blue-collar yokels).".

  jesus, were he the one and only hope of mankind, would be absolutely certain to write down with great simplicity and specificity the exact owner's manual necessary to rescue mankind.. never happened!.

  Actually you did, saying "I WAS addressing Terry specifically" then saying he's hardened his heart towards God, then saying God will harden his heart against him and give him over to his own way, and then you go on to say that such men will harden their heart even more when they are thrown in the lake of fire.

  Your endless equivalencies start with Terry and end in the lake of fire, exactly as I quoted.

  My comprehension is fine. I see right through all the filler in the middle that you put in to distance Terry from the lake of fire, but it's all there. Not sure if you're deliberately trying to be dishonest or you've fooled yourself, but you've said a terrible thing, a rude thing, and a thing that falls under the category of "none of your business," for Terry's eternal disposition certainly is none of yours.

  Maybe you ought not meddle in others' affairs. That kind of rhetoric repels others, and unless you're trying to turn people off, maybe you should stop.

  "People like Terry...will be thrown into the lake of fire"

  "love michelle"

  THIS ^^^^ is what gives Christians a bad name.

  Threaten you (or promise, if you prefer) and then tell you they love you! It's just mind-bending that they can't see how ugly and off-putting that is.

  If that's what your selling, then I CERTAINLY won't be buying!

  Animals were created without needing Toilet Paper ... but not Man ... Why???

  by RubaDub in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  my dog and other pets do their "business" and run away and are happy.. man does not have that luxury.

  any thoughts on why animals were created with the "poop and go" capacity while man has to go through more steps?

  was this perhaps an additional issue that god added on when adam and eve sinned (such as eve having significant more birth pains)?

  Actually, I carry my own baby wipes in my purse. We use them at home, too. Paper is not enough!

  We started this practice post-baby once the wonder of baby wipes were revealed to us.

  Not that people advertize it, but over the years we've learned other people have adopted this practice post-baby as well.

  Costco now even sells "moist flushable wipes, safe for sewage systems!"

  Only a few days ago I was entirely lost and without hope the rug was pulled out from under me

  only a few days ago i was walking around the house in a mindless wander thinking if i needed to seek professional help.

  then i got the courage to seek the comfort of complete strangers on the internet and found a world of support here on this website.

  thank you simon and whoever else has made this website possible.

  I am so happy for you! This is a rare result, but, nonetheless, the one we all keep dreaming about around here.

  Welcome to the rest of your life.

  genuine english guy seeking jw lady

  by english_gentleman in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  hi, i believe that a lady is put on earth to satisfy the needs of her partner and respect his views in all matters.. i realize some here may consider that old fashioned and not based on sexual equality.. yet a lady and man are not created equal because the lady gives birth and the man must sire many children.

  if you are a lady under 30 and keen to meet me, willing to cook and breed, then please message me here.

  please do not contact me if you disagree with my views, we can agree to differ.

  Good news, genuine English guy, I have been perusing the personals and have found what I believe to be the perfect match:

  "I am looking for the perfect man, a genuine provider who will support me with a generous paycheck while I stay at home to "clean." Must be able to cook and be willing to take care of multiple children in the evenings and on weekends. Be assured that you will get sex on at least 3 occasions as I want 3 children. Please don't expect it at other times, though, as I will be exhausted from texting my friends all day. Must be willing to sign a pre-nup agreement and be happy over the years if I "let myself go." Lets retire together!"

  If you are interested, pm me and I will forward her personal information.

  Evolution is a Fact #26 - Colour Vision

  by cofty in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  each little flower that opens,each little bird that sings,he made their glowing colours,he made their tiny wings.. all of us have been moved by the riot of colours in a spring meadow, the majesty of a sunset or the beauty of a bird in breeding plumage.

  what greater evidence could there be of a loving creator than our colourful world and the human eye that is equipped to appreciate it?.

  this is the sort of simplistic argument that convinces a lot of creationists about their beliefs.. it's time to "unweave the rainbow".. light is detected by a proteins called opsins.

  Haha! It does serve us right, doesn't it?

  American digest version: Magna Carta, blah, blah, blah, Feudalism, blah, blah, blah, Shakespeare, blah, blah, blah, the Puritans, blah, blah, blah, and then straight onto the Revolution!

  And, sometimes in the advanced version, there's a little bit about the silliness of Henry VIII. :P

  Can we just clear up the fact that "ignorant" is not an insult?

  It simply means not having knowledge about something.

  I'm perfectly ignorant on the subject of British history. It doesn't mean that I'm stupid or that I couldn't learn it, just that I never have had to learn it during my American schooling.

  2. friends

  so last night we had some friends around for dinner, (not jw) & it was a really wonderful evening.

  we talked about a variety of subjects, just had a laugh & drunk wine & beer.

  this morning my husband & i were talking about how nice it was, how free we felt with our opinions.

  There's a tattletale policy. You turn someone in and it makes you look better and more spiritual.

  Gossiping provides the opportunity to find out dirt on someone.

  Oh, dude, they DO need toilet paper!

  I used to have a long-haired cat with dingleberries.

  When I took her to the groomers, I had to ask them to shave her butt!

  They acted like it was an everyday request and didn't even charge extra.
