  or do we give in to social constructivism?

  to relativity?

  an innocent man killed in the most awful manner replayed countless time all over the world has desire for justice writ large all it.

  is this something that secularists can take from a religious event.

  what is truth - Pilate asked Jesus

  by Ruby456 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i think pilate was being socratic when he asked jesus - what is truth?.

  my question is to do with whether or not jesus was also being socratic when he said he had come to bear witness to the truth.

  my idea is that both pilate and jesus were talking about a kind of ethics to live.

  God's Kingdom Rules - for injustice?

  by Ruby456 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  here is what i am asking regarding the convention that is now in progess at twickenham and at which this new book gods kingdom rules was released.. what inequalities and injustices is the convention perpetrating regarding god's kingdom rule and which it would like to keep hidden and quiet about?.

  the biggest one i can think of is that it favours the able bodied and a particular type of able bodied.

  everyone else must try to match that particular able bodied type.

  do parents here feel a strong sense of responsiblity for raising their children as witnessess?

  an xwitness friend was saying she and her husband feel very bad for having brought up their children as witnesses and they feel they want to make amends but are unable to do so.

  what advice would you give them.
