  2. friends

  at our service meeting we saw the video of a jw explaining his beliefs about 1914.. it was.....well, "underwhelming" does not do it justice.

  "boringly tepid"?.

  It's going to be an emotion based, high-control group.

  Fixed that for you.

  Evolution and spirits

  by Chris Tann in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  as of now iam making an unbiased examination of evolution.

  however one thing keeps me hanging on to the belief of a supreme spirit being; the existence of spirits.

  i have heard countless accounts of people who have experienced frightening encounters with evil forces.

  Another ad hominen attack on those who disagree with you.

  If you point out the flaws in Kate's posts she says you haven't developed abstract thinking skills (which, BTW, she defines and applies incorrectly, so, kind of funny) and accuses you of being childlike. When you point out the flaw in that, she calls you a bully.

  Basically, she's saying she's prone to being bullied by children.

  As an Engineer, it is my opinion that Psychology is fluff (like Sociology, Philosophy, and Poly Sci). It's pure snake-oil.

  In what way does being an engineer give your opinion any weight?

  by Perry in

  2. beliefs

  from ancient accounts hostile to christinity, we can learn the following:.

  jesus was born and lived in palestine.

  he was born, supposedly, to a virgin and had an earthly father who was a carpenter.

  An insignificant, illiterate, itinerant preacher with a tiny following, who went wholly unnoticed by any literate person in Judaea somehow started a religion that changed the world.

  Jesus didn't start any religion as far as I can tell.

  Apo- when you have the chance look up the Antisemitic statements of the Protestant founders Martin Luther and John Calvin. At that point Christianity's antisemitism had been in full rage for 1500 years.

  Christianity is all about death. No way around it.
