  Remove the word 'ideal' and you may stand a chance.

  It's true.. there are some seriously waste of time threads by people who claim to be best buddies with Jesus and live in then lap of God yet when you ask them how it all works they retreat into the same mental garbage and brain melting traffic jam of utter ridiculousness.

  These people have nothing but their own self induced delusions.

  Why don't Jehovah's Witnesses introduce themselves when knocking on doors?

  by Randomthoughts in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  most random people who knock on the door politely introduce themselves when you open the door.. for example "hello, i'm derick from unicef and i'm looking for donations blah blah blah".

  now annoying as it may be for some at least he had the courtesy to introduce himself.. why don't jw's do this?

  is it because they are embarressed or perhaps they know you won't take their literature if they do?.

  The JWS theology/ideology states that its not themselves personally that matters but the Message they bring to the people..

  The source of a message it often just as if not more important than the message.

  If you get a bill, a love letter, a cheque or a death threat.. knowing the source can be even more critical than the content. I would think knowing the source of the message that's meant to be the most important life changing message of your entire life is critical. After one is done with the content the next and ever bigger question is 'who' is this from.

  Even more so when they have a 130 year history of making things up, getting things massively wrong and just plain lying.

  Dr. Kent Bradly and Dr. Nancy Writebol's healings Prove to me there is a God!

  by BucketShopBill in

  i get tired of using the argument of "the mystery of evil" to attack god but where are we when we see heroic acts of godly courage from great humans like dr. kent bradly and dr. nancy writebols wonderful works of love?

  did you listen to dr. kent bradley's concern and loving compassion for west africa?

  he's not angry superstitious mobs destroyed several make-shift medical facilities to treat victims of ebola, no, dr. bradly implored the world to "help save west africa".

  Fernando:

  Now that I too have received the free gift of faith,

  "Free Gift of Faith"?

  Is faith a gift now? It's not something one can ever aquire alone, it has to be given you? Where does one get it? Does it come from God? So it's something you must ask for? So people who have little or no faith are only people who God imply has not given any? Is that correct?

  'Gifts' are often by nature completely unexpected and surprising. For something to be a surprising and unexpected gift it can not be something that has been begged for, pleaded for and even asked for (as in asking in prayer) as then it simply be something asked for would no longer be a 'gift'.

  If he has not given them this free 'gift' can they be really held to blame for their lack of faith? And they then get punished too for simply for not having what he did not give them? Is that correct?

  AMAZING VIDEO OF A 9 YEAR OLD DISCUSSING THE MEANING OF LIFE AND THE UNIVERSE

  by Dis-Member in

  this is what an indigo child looks like in action.. he just nailed it in these few sentences:.

  "you have no proof that there's anything out there, the only proof is yourself and where you are.. and you can only make theories, you can never know the truth".

  "the meaning of your life is what you make it, what you want your life to be.. nobody can decide what you will do except for you".

  Hiya Kate,

  Interesting question.

  It makes me wonder.. If there is no devil and no demons.. how can there be a God?

  Who did Jesus supposedly cast out? Who tempted him in the wilderness? Why did he often speak of "your father the devil"?

  Why did God apparently require an instant death penalty for all those who were witches, mediums, sorcerers and warlocks and dabbled in the dark side?
