that always gets your attention, huh.
ok, i'm watching the "o'reilly factor", they just aired the case of two hs students who engaged in oral sex on a bus in silverlakes maryland while several other students cheered them on and the bus driver did nothing.
the principal of the school system didn't inform the school board until after the local newspaper broke the story and he refuses to say how the students will be punished.
"...We believe that, aside from those who have been indoctrinated with the view that 'in marriage anything goes,' the vast majority of persons would normally reject as repugnant the practice of oral copulation.." WT QFR dec '72
i'd like to see a survey done to see just how many people view oral sex as repugnant!
but of course if anyone's been found out to have commited child abuse and has cried about it, then thats ok and we can keep it hush hush.
often we had threads that said, "what if we are wrong"?
but lets reverse the question and ask, "what would happen if they realized that they were completely wrong"?
imagine 6 million people not knowing where to look anymore for spiritual guidance.
then there would be 12(or however may there are on the GB) very unhappy men!
what say yea?
active force or person ?
question only aimed at those who still believe in something.
mmm...well personal responsibility for what you teach and believe is dodgy ground to be getting into. i feel sorry for those who do things not out of faith because of deliberate ignorance, rather than ignorance. but thats as far as i push it, lest i judge.
.
why does wts keep printing in their literature that jehovah will judge when in the gosple of john it clearly states that christ will judge, and that judging was given to the son by the father?
"for the father judges no one, but has committed all judgment to the son," john 5:22
rocketman
yes the WTS could say that Jehovah judges thru Jesus 'cos he appointed him, but then they would be calling Jesus a liar "For the Father judges no one..."

well you saw me arguing with that liverpudlian guy at cfern lea! unitarian, although honour for our Lord Jesus should be like that of our Father.
to this date, it has never been proved who is responsible for the atrocities of the twin towers' destruction.
an absolutely appalling act.
who is responsible?
crazy
i understand how you feel, but i asked the question "is this what we want?". now you either want that to happen or you dont. showing that pic wasn't because it was a US atrocity, but it shows what war is really about. and also by asking that question, it doesnt mean that saddam is ok to do it aswell.
now there's a guy at my local pub who regulary gets into fights and beats people up. would i be justified to go to the pub with some mates and 'do him over' just because he potentially posses a risk to me?
as i said at the bottom of my post, there's no opposites in war.
as for comparing hitler with bush, well its your rights and freedoms he's taking away, not mine!
please correct my thinking if i'm wrong, but........... i regret pretty much all of the jw friends whom i've loved.... and now lost due to my now no longer viewing things the same as them.. i regret the many very special events in life which i shared with them.
am i right to feel this way?.

i agree with vivamus. you should see that even when bad things happen, and things go sour, good things can always come of it.

2nd Corinthians 3:17: Now the Lord is the Spirit and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
i had posted a question about this scripture before. i quoted from the NWT and it has Jehovah instead of Lord, which begs the question is the holy spirit Jehovah? imo, i think this scripture is certainaly talking about the HS rather than God being a spirit as someone said in my previous thread.
it doesnt change my opinion on the trinity though pete!
i got up at 6am and took alex to the airport:(, then i went home and jumped online looking for lawyers.
i found 186 in dallas that deal with custody.
i called about 12 and left messages.
LOVE YA JES!!!!!!!!!
as reported on sky news, this from the pm's news conference some 45 minutes ago:blair firm on iraqthe prime minister says he passionately believes saddam hussein must be disarmed of weapons of mass destruction.
he said britain must show rogue states "that when we say we intend to deal with the issue of weapons of mass destruction, we mean it".
mr blair, giving his monthly downing street news conference, said there was still time for the iraqi dictator to give up his weapons programmes.. but if he did not, he would have to be disarmed by force.. "i know and understand the concerns that people have," mr blair said.
