Thank you, Englishman. It's nice to see someone enter this thread that has half a mind to think with.

as many of you likely know, the owner of the e-watchman website constantly charges the wts with having committed spiritual fornication with the united nations organization (the so-called ngo affair).
i would like to ask you all a question in order to find out your opinion as to whether or not watchman has done a near equivalent thing that he charges the wts with having done.
most of you were probably aware that watchman once advertised the e-watchman site on this site here (jw.com).

Corvin,
I'm not here to agitate people. Apparently you think otherwise. That must me the reason why you're so antagonistic.

Ball:
Rephrase the question.

Corvin,
Please go away. In my opinion you're doing nothing but cluttering up the thread.
Please have the decency to leave.

Corvin,
Why are you being so controversial? Why are you wanting to pick a fight?

What I want to know is if anyone here sees the hypocrisy of Watchman's actions. He says that the WTS is guilty of spiritual fornication due to an association with a political entity (the UN), even though he himself is committing spiritual fornication by means of having an association (asking for favors) with a person he himself considers to be an "apostate" (all for the sake of getting his website advertised). How can he condemn the WTS without also having to condemn himself. Am I not making myself clear enough?
It isn't necessary for you tell me all about the NGO affair. I know all about it. That's been told so many times that it's pitiful. Try to address the point of this thread, if you would please, and not use the thread as a platform to preach the same ole worn out message all over again.
Thanks,
Schizm

Corvin,
You completely missed the point of my question!
Please try to get down off your soap box long enough to think about the questions I posed. And it wouldn't hurt if you used a smaller font. The size of font that you've chosen, you may as well just shout (use all capitals) what you say.

according to the dubs, and other faiths, adam was created with no defects of any kind.
he was created with no sin.
then adam sinned.
What are your thoughts with regards to what I've said up above, AlanF? Do you see any flaws in my reasoning?
We die for the same reasons that Adam and Eve died. Namely, because we need the ingredients found in the tree of life, and can't have them. The reason we can't have them is because we fail to be fully righteous. We fail to be fully righteous because our fathers were unable to inculcate this quality into us by way of teaching us properly. Our fathers were unable to teach us properly because their fathers were just as incapable ... and so on all the way back to Adam. Ultimately it can all be blamed on "sin". Person's who "sin" aren't worthy of eating from the tree of life. Once we've been helped to overcome our sinfulness then we will be allowed to eat from the tree of life. That's apparently the reason for the mention of the "trees of life" in the book of Revelation. It has nothing at all to do with genes!

I believe that the "tree of life" contained the unique ingredients that Adam & Eve needed in order to sustain their lives forever. I also believe that they were at least periodically eating from this tree, for the reason that the other tree was the only one of the two that was off-grounds for them. It was only AFTER they disobeyed that they were prevented from eating of the tree of life any longer. Had they not disobeyed it appears that they would have continued to live for as long as they replenished the needs of their bodies by consuming the essential ingredients that could be found in the tree of life alone.
No question about it, they had permission to eat of the tree of life.
The fruit from the tree of life really had life-sustaining ingredients.
The fruit from the "other" tree was simply good for food, just plain ole food, and to eat from it was to disobey God and merit not being worthy of eating of the tree of life any longer.
So Adam and Eve would still be alive today had they not been disallowed from eating from the tree of life.
We die for the same reason that Adam and Eve died ... because we need the ingredients from the tree of life and aren't getting them.

Most of you were probably aware that Watchman once advertised the e-watchman site on this site here (JW.com). Yes, it could be seen as a hard-to-be-overlooked flashing banner that was placed at the top-right of the page here. Something that you may not have been aware of though is exactly how that advertisement got to be there. As a result of my having inquired, I learned that it got to be there by means of Watchman's REQUEST. Yes, the owner of JW.com placed the e-watchman advertisement on this site at the request of Watchman himself. Sooooo....what we have here is ... that for the sake of gaining the benefit of having his site advertised, Watchman played ball with an "apostate" heavy; namely, the owner of the JW.com website. Think about it! Here we have Mr. Anointed himself (Watchman), accusing the WTS of having committed spiritual fornication (due to its connection with the UN as an NGO), while at the same time he himself has been playing tootsie with an "apostate" leader ... all for the sake of getting the e-watchman website off the ground and running. Do you see what I'm talking about here? Do you see Watchman as having committed a similar crime (spiritual fornication) as that which he is charging the WTS with? Just seeking your honest thoughts and opinions, if you want to express them. Schizm
