Oh my!!Yeru, Is that all you can see? I can see the picture I posted. Check and see again. Once again, I think my inadequate computer skills rear their ugly head. If it's still not there, tell me what I must have done wrong, please. I have this picture of jesus in my pictures. I thought I got it transfered correctly.

What did Jesus REALLY look like?
by RubyTuesday inwhat jesus looked like doesn't really matter to me... in a faith that is moved by his teachings and not his looks, however it doesn't stop to amaze me why organized religion has gone out of its way to make us think he was gorgeous.
the following scriptures plainly states that he was'nt even just "average" looking but maybe even deformed.maybe it is important what he looked like....important enough to put in the bible and important enough for man to twist it...no twist isn't the word...lie!
visage =the face, countenance, or look of a person or an animal; -- chiefly applied to the human face.

Believers, why does God need your flattery?
by IronGland inwhy would an all knowing master of space and time feel the irrepressible need to be adored by mere insects (relatively speaking), and indeed punish them in the most absolute of terms if they fail in this task?
indeed it makes god seem very human, although rather immaturely so.
we expect such behavior from schoolyard bullies, megalomaniac dictators and small children who demand adoration from their beaten dogs.

REM-I can appreciate your point of view about parents not expecting adulation, but with all due respect, you must not have a southern mother.

Six, I'm a christian, and in the bible it says that God created us in his image. I believe that means many things. Among them that emotions we have are natural and God has them too. I don't believe it to be a physical thing. So, people have a natural desire to be praised for things they do, and enjoy adulation. I was just expressing that I'm sure God is the same way. It was also sorta tongue in cheek.

Well, we were created in God's image. If you created the universe, wouldn't you want at least an honerary mention?

Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words -- "mank" and "ind". What do these words mean ? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

Would some of us be better off as Witnesses?
by Jerry Bergman ini have often wondered if many people would be better off if they stayed witnesses.
some people i have known have really gone off the deep end after they left the watchtower.
most all of my family have left now (not due to me as i was cut off from them for years) and many others i know who have left are now bitter atheists or have become pagans and worship stones or new ageers playing with crystals.

Is this a joke?
No seriously, Jerry, I am not gonna lambast you. I think you asked a good question. I am a christian, si I understand your intentions. But the real question is are you better being an athiests or serving God, not in spirit and truth, but in error and lies? Is there a difference?
