  The Bishop of Carlisle- where have you heard this before?

  by petespal2002 in

  in our local evening paper the bishop of carlisle was quoted as saying that homosexual acts, anal and oral sex and sex outside of marriage are signs of demon posession and proof positive of demon activity in the world.

  he also said that miscarrages can bring demons into the world, as can abortions, those with mental illnesses or longstanding medical conditions that don't respond well to treatment could be possesed of a spirit, as could those who constantly wear black or repeatedly buy black cars.

  i was reminded of those told by christian elders that they may havr allowed satan in due to some activity or occurence of depression.

  you are only responsible to jehovah for believing what the society teaches.

  only the society is responsible to jehovah for error taught, not individual witnesses.

  where is this written by the society?

  i don't mean an epiphany, necessarily--although that does count.

  i mean, what books came along and just changed the way you look at things.

  still life with woodpecker (tom robbins).

  Fully Gifted Creation, No God of Gaps

  im leaning more and more towards a fully gifted creation.

  i think god is so wise that when he first began "this" universe that he endowed it with tremendous organization potentiality, that would not require him to step in and guide it or help it along to produce intelligent life.. look at how scientist tell us all the elements are made in the stars, though nuclear fusion suns not only give us light and heat but also produce more complicated elements.

  physicists tell us of wonderful self organization on the atomic and subatomic level.

  Just victims of media ?

  i was reading an article (from another thread) on the adventist history of jwism, and pondered these couple of sentences.

  "....distributing the society's literature from house to house.

  by 1927 this door-to-door literature distribution had become an essential activity required of all members.
