7 am - i wake up and walk up to my wife, "good morning, my precious!".
7:30 am *she hits the flasher button indicating she needs me* "yes, my queen??
" wife "oh stop.
Yesterday my wife wanted me to help change the channel on the TV to her favorite Soap Opera...
I hold up a finger to ask to wait a second...
I run to the computer to look something up...
Then I grabbed the radio and got something out of the linen closet.
I plug the radio in and tune to the Opera music station and I started rubbing myself with a bar of soap...
My wife starts laughing, then grabs the box of kleenex to throw it at me and said...."Turn on the TV, I do not want to miss the begining!!"
Resigned to the fact she wants her TV so I turned on the TV and gathered my things.
As I am getting ready to leave the room, she waves at me, motions for me to come to her and she kisses me.
"Thanks for the laughs" she said and "I love you!"
"I love you too babe!"

i clearly am for it if it's proven without a doubt that a person murdered another in cold blood.
recently, in connecticut, a man was convicted of killing 2 young girls and their mother.
the animal raped them and almost killed the defenseless husband/father who could do nothing while these atrocities were being carried out in his own home!.
I find it amusing that those that speaks against the DP will change their minds in a hurry the second that a very close loved one is murdered.
I also question the motives of those that speaks out against the DP, seems to me that those types of people wishes to commit a capital crime without having to worry about paying for it with their lives.

if one assumes that god made the universe it follows that he made it according to a very complex set of physical laws that determine how things work.
the quest to identify and understand those physical laws is at the very forefront of science and great strides have been made over the past few centuries, in particular during the last century.
we have known for only a few centuries that the earth rotates on its axis and orbits around the sun along with a number of other planets, more recently that the solar system is located in a radial arm of a spiral galaxy swirling around some enormous black hole.
I've been reading through the thread (catching up) and as some has pointed out, some nay sayers are only pointing out by the most part the negativities in scriptures (God killing people, etc.)
So this leaves me the question, what about the positives in Scriptures?
So, in my view in what and how I see as positives from my own personal point of view...
1.) The Creation of God - I see God's love in His creation, the same kind of love that any good and kind hearted father would love their newborn child. For any fathers here, do you remember the feelings as you watched your newborn child being brought into this world? I'm sure that God's feelings isn't any different from yours.
2.) God's Mercy - For those that dwells on the negativity of God, many are forgetting that not only God is full of justice, He's also full of mercy....
A.) God delivered the Israelites from 400 years of bondage in Egypt.
B.) When God sent Jonah to send a warning message to the city of Nineveh to prophesy and warn the people to turn away from their wicked ways or face punishment. When Jonah ran, if God was such a mean God, He could have just struck him dead instead of allowing him to run and run into all sorts of troubles. Yet at the end, he was spared of his life and Jonah saw that God exercised mercy for his disobedience rather have him killed outright. Then when he arrived at the city of Ninevah and warned the people, the people then repented. God gave mercy to the people and spared the city.
C.) When Abram (before he became Abraham) spoke with God regarding the city of sodom and gomorrah, Abram asked the same question several times regarding what if there were so and so many good people in the cities. Every one of God's answer was that if there were (even one) good person inside the city, he would spare it. This shows God does indeed have mercy in His heart. God also spared Lot and his family, with the exception of his wife, who looked back, disregarding God's warning not to.
Let's look at it this way, if you told your child not to cross the street by himself, yet he went and did it anyway, almost getting himself killed by an incoming vehicle. You as a parent would not only be scared nearly to death, but you'd also be angry that he disobeyed you. If you wanted to, you could have killed him for disobeying you. That'd be pretty mean, now wouldn't it? No, a true loving parent always run to their child to see if the child is alright, but also scold and punish the child with tempered mercy for disobeying you.
3.) God spared the lives of Adam and Eve - God could have easily killed both of them and started over if He wanted to, but no, He choose mercy by sparing their lives and expelled them from the Garden into some harsh lands whereas they have to fend for themselves in order to survive.
4.) God spared Abraham's son - If God was such a mean God, He could have easily ordered the sacrifice of human beings rather than animals. No, the example that God showed Abraham mercy to spare his son from being sacrificed on the alter and provided him a goat instead in the alter's place.
5.) Joseph gave Mary mercy by attempting to send her away instead of turning her in to the Pharasees whom could have her stoned to death for what they could have believed that she commited fornication and falsely represented herself as a virgin at the time of their marriage. This is why God choose the right time, Mary, the decendent of David to betroth Joseph as her husband because He foreknew Jospeh's merciful heart. The timing was just perfect.
6.) Jesus gave mercy by raising the dead, healed the sick, fed the multitudes. God also showed mercy by offering His Son as a sacrifical Lamb for our sins, taking the punishment in OUR PLACE so we don't have to.
Scripture does show that God makes mercy & grace to be first and justice last. The bible is full of those examples and it dwarfs the examples of God's justice.
So this leaves the question, which side of God do you prefer to be on? The side of God's justice or the side of God's love, forgiveness, mercy & grace who offered up His only begotten Son as an atonement for our sins?
God also said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you." Hebrews 13:5
Unlike what the JWs would do if you faced disfellowshipping, shunning you from their lives if one screwed up from the standards of the WTS. God never forsakes you no matter where you have been and what you have done. His hand will always be outstetched towards you begging you to come home, like the story of the prodigal son.

Yiz, no offense, but this feels like arguing with JW family. Reason and logic fly out the window because magical powers can be used to fix anything.
None taken and I do wholly respect one's personal opinion. I love debates and I learn alot from it, doesn't matter if I agree or disagree with it.
I do however apologize that I made you feel like you're arguing with a JW family, I meant no disrespect nor attempted to drudge up bad memories/feelings from your personal experiences.
I guess what breaks down to it is this, it's a matter of one's own faith as well as one's own personal experiences.

So when the Baptist Sunday School Bus goes off the road because of bad brakes the little darlings get to be with God. Why not just take them in their sleep and bypass the accident and getting their sweet little bodies torn to shreds.
You're making the body, which is a temporary vehicle to be more important than the condition of the soul. The soul is far more valuable than anything in the God created universe. Each soul is unique and one of a kind, there's no two alike. There's not a single currency, precious metals & gems that can supersede the value of one single soul.
Lastly, if you're concerned about the psychological impact that an accident (as stated as an example above) could have on the minds of the little children, you're forgetting the healing power of God and if God wants to, erase that memory from their minds permanantly leaving only the knowledge that they died from an accident, but have no visual recollection of it.

That's correct, they're not. Because - among other reasons - the global flood story is a myth.
But even if the deluge was real, what's the basis for the above rhetoric?
Because the children all have souls, the body dies yes, but their souls have not, they're not really dead. Not in the same sense as the body.
That's why Jesus said, "Don't be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Instead, fear the one who can destroy both body and soul in hell." Matthew 10:28
Yes they got caught in the wrath of God, but that did not mean they were guilty. But it doesn't also mean God can't restore them as well.
