by their fruits you will know them.
a good tree (religion) does not bear bad fruit, neither can a rotten tree bear good fruits.
true faith is followed by good fruits/works.. dead faith is followed by bad works or no works at all.. 30 bad fruits/works of counterfeit christian religions.
Every religion is counterfeit. As is every thought and belief about Reality.
Our sensations and insignificant thoughts regarding a tree, are in no way the reality of the vibrant life we call: “tree”.
How much more so then – in regards That (God) which is infinitely beyond all phenomena?
Religion is mental masturbation, at best.
jw: yes thats right.. me: good!
jw: yes, thats true.. me: good.
jw: yes, sure do.. me: tell me, john, what would you do if jesus christ told you that you shouldnt follow jehovahs witnesses?.
Darth,
I suggest making a video portraying this interaction, and posting it on Youtube.
okay we've all beat our chest, lamented and throttled the dead horse of aawa.. time to move on!.
i suggest those of us on j-w.n who care about creating something the right way take the trouble to get the framework going.. let's do the grunt work and get the nattering, debates, naming and organizing already pre-approved so that "others" who have the talent, ability, motivation and resources can move in and turn the key!.
because it was not done before.. there is more wisdom on this discussion board in our vast numbers than there could possibly be in a virtual boardroom with 8 people brain-storming.. that isn't an insult--it is just a statistical fact!.
Being someone who only visits occasionally, and who is a retard who could only skim through the thread and not read it all, the essence of this post may have already been mentioned. I apologize.
The people who will involve themselves in the new endeavor, will be limited. So perhaps the best way to get the biggest bang for the buck, is to concentrate – at first – on just one single thing. Don't dilute the time and effort. Do one thing right. Use that as a template. Move to the next and expand methodically. Keep it simple.

it claimed that an expert at stanford stated that it is not a primate.
it would be good to hear other expert opinion.. .
From what has been reported, this little fellow has several skeletal anomalies never seen before; and all in one little package (ten ribs for instance). It's bone density is reported to be that of a creature several years old...and so not a fetus. Also if the anomalies are deformities, it's very likely that they would be asymmetrical in nature, where as this leprechaun seems to be very symmetrical.
No conclusions, but very interesting.
That said, I was disappointed in Greer's film. For one thing they showed..as if valid...already proven fake or misidentified UFO images and “free energy” devises. Why put bull-shit in a documentary dealing with an already extremely controversial subject? Why purposely sabotage your mission and make the debunker's job effortless? I'm an idiot and I never would have done something so stupid.
Also the film seemed, to me, to be an infomercial for Greer's bravado and self-sacrifice, and a call for people to join Cseti. Like we need a new religion.
If he wanted to awaken people to things they may have been blind to before, he didn't do so great a job..in my opinion.
There is a lot better information out there.
jesus repeatedly warned his followers that they would not know when he would return.
he was not warning unbelievers, he was warning them!!.
why was he warning them?
OnTheWayOut,
I agree. Funny how most every Christian thinks they are a "True" Christian, and they question the validity of most everyone else. If there is such a thing as a true Christians, it's probably those too humble to think of themselves as one.
ProdigalSon,
Interesting thoughts. I think I agree.

As if there isn't already enough fear in the world. Jeese.
jesus said that the true religion would be evident in the lives of the people who practice it.
by their fruits you will recognize them, he said.
every good tree produces fine fruit.
Hey poppers! Yah, They want to preach, but don't want to answer anything that gives an honest thought-out rebuttal to their post.
It's like a drive-by shooting.
Hope you are well, friend.
have you ever seen those videos where someone puts a lighter to their butt and lights a fart on fire?
you see this little poof, and then it's gone.. .
well, i was outside last night and decided to do the same.. .
botch,
You said: "this thread is worthless without pictures."
Well I tried to video it with my smart phone, but after the propane lighter went off there was nothing but a bright golden orange glow that filled the screen. It's if you focused in on the sun.
I think there is some nuclear-fusion going on here.
Today I have been working on a patient.

I caught my neighbors tree on fire.
i spoke to a friend of mine about this not too long ago.. we are "of a certain age".. the subject came up somehow.. .
i'll be watching a tv commercial or i'll see some people in a park or a simple passing thought will suddenly induce a profound.
sense of---well, how to describe it?
I would agree sooner7nc, that at times the sublime beauty can bring us to tears. Yet, the pain of everyone on earth can seem to blind us at times, to the most beautiful.
I'm happy you chimed in.
