Is there truth in religion

by bola in

i am asking this questions due to the teachings, beliefs and practices of different religions..

Brokeback Watchtower

Definitely not truth like this bold and highly biased statement:

Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.(John 14:6)

How could anyone make this supposed statement and not be severely egotistical and delusional? A person to say that about himself would have to be very egocentric and highly delusion with a God complex.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God_complex

A person with a god complex may refuse to admit the possibility of their error or failure, even in the face of irrefutable evidence, intractable problems or difficult or impossible tasks. The person is also highly dogmatic in their views, meaning the person speaks of their personal opinions as though they are unquestionably correct.[1] Someone with a god complex may exhibit no regard for the conventions and demands of society,

You can hardly expect to find truth from such a strongly biased narrow minded way of black and white thinking? Common sense says a resounding: NO !

I think religions that gives you absolutes like that need to be put on community board watch out for list. And flush their bull shit down the toilet and fine the dirty shit head for spreading their bull shit on the public in court.

Before attempting to persuade someone that life evolved, first discuss genetics.

the reasoning behind the thread''s title was developed by a team looking at the teaching of evolution.

"the team, led by professor laurence hurst at the milner centre for evolution, university of bath hypothesised that since core concepts of genetics (such as dna and mutation) are so intimately linked to the core concepts of evolution, then priming students with genetics information might help their understanding of evolution.

The Watchtower Corporation hopes to keep it membership for as long as possible believing in the unscientific bull shit they base their major non profit $$$$ from to keep expanding but seems to be in a bit of decline which spells bankruptcy religion or not.

Anyway Profits are on a sharp decline as internet access expands so say bye bye to these religious frauds. No matter how fast they can they can liquidate all potential kingdom hall grabs and kicking the elderly on skid row in gratitude for all the hard work they did for them getting their slave labor from these gullible.

DNA proves that we evolved which flushes the Watchtower corporation's defense for man's creation happening around 4 thousand something BC right down the toilet of discarded ignorance.

Anyway it don't take a rocket scientist to find out the WT is full of shit. Just a little common sense and the internet at you finger tips, just ask Google.

Are Jehovah's Witnesses Mind Numbingly Boring To You?

i honestly think they are the most boring people on earth!

even when they produce their so called "new light", there's no excitement.

jws just do their thing and refuse to think about their useless lives.

Brokeback Watchtower

Of course it depends who you ask this question to. If you ask it to a newly interested person who is desperate for some comforts from the bible to make him feel better you will get a definite NO. But this is a discussion group comprised mainly of people wise to the bull shit this corrupt self proclaimed "God's Earthly Organization" printing establishment is dishing out, but the readership may have many almost out, newly out, and some loyal JDubs and perhaps even a GB member or two and worldly people trying to find out what the JW are all about. So it is a good question that requires some reflection for all that read it.

Yes, but you expect as they are filling their minds with Watchtower Corporation's propaganda which has a definite documented effect on the brain, causing brain shrinkage, leaving them with a limited range of subject matter that they can comment on 1/2 intelligently depending on the degree of mind numbing indoctrination they had.

Hey just try and imagine that Stephen Lett or Anthony Morris the Turd was a family member and you're trying to have a meaningful conversation with him to which he doesn't dominate with utter bull shit(not possible!).

Has the Bible been redacted so that YAHWEH can be promoted to EL's position as Almighty God?

by I_love_Jeff in

for background, read: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/yahweh, the section, "iron age i: el, yahweh, and the origins of israel.

" "el and his sons made up the assembly of the gods, each member of which had a human nation under his care, and a textual variant of deuteronomy 32:8–9 describes the sons of el, including yahweh, each receiving his own people.

"el, the kind, the compassionate,' 'the creator of creatures,' was the chief of the canaanite gods, and he, not yahweh, was the original 'god of israel'—the word 'israel' is based on the name el rather than yahweh.

Finkle,

I think they were displaced nomads that took over some cities to have a more permanent residence. The coming out of Egypt scenario an attempt make a good story telling device that that satisfied those that held the power and the priesthood that makes a living out of telling these stories. Like Yahwey would really care if someone picked up sticks on a Saturday and have Moses tell the people to execute the violator of a god decreed rest day.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nomad

The first nomadic pastoral society developed in the period from 8,500–6,500 BC in the area of the southern Levant.[citation needed] There, during a period of increasing aridity, Pre-Pottery Neolithic B (PPNB) cultures in the Sinai were replaced by a nomadic, pastoral pottery-using culture, which seems to have been a cultural fusion between a newly arrived Mesolithic people from Egypt (the Harifian culture), adopting their nomadic hunting lifestyle to the raising of stock.[8]

This lifestyle quickly developed into what Jaris Yurins has called the circum-Arabian nomadic pastoral techno-complex and is possibly associated with the appearance of Semitic languages in the region of the Ancient Near East. The rapid spread of such nomadic pastoralism was typical of such later developments as of the Yamnaya culture of the horse and cattle nomads of the Eurasian steppe, or of the Mongol spread of the later Middle Ages.[8]

Let face it some ones writings mean different things to different perceptions or from different back rounds and cultures which means misunderstanding arise rather frequently oh if we could only communicate exactly what we got going on in our head while writing if we could do that perhaps we are on the road to world peace or some such utopian dream where everybody gets along perfectly.
