  When have I ever resorted to insults to divert attention from a discussion, please show me.

  Well, you did write this about Morpheus in a thread a few months, back, the one where you attempted to claim Cofty and I are the same person, said I was mentally unbalanced and showed some pretty hefty misogyny when you claimed my posts we're illogical, unlike a man's posts, all after creepily trying to call me by pet names...

  Poor Morpheus' lack of intelligence.Must resort to diverting attention by posting things about me instead of addressing the subject matter of this thread and the argument in my post. What a clown!

  So, you know, there's those times you insulted people rather than argue your points, so, you know. There you go. Ask and ye shall receive.

  Is that not what the "Conquistadores" told the Indians after raping their women, taking their land and stealing their gold?

  Surely you don't have a problem with those good Christians, do you?

  You do not see anything wrong with making fun of my name and you do not see anything wrong with broadcasting a PM. You only note my response. You are also a moron.

  And thus we see the idiocy inherent in the system.

  Jesus Christ explains the particle used in my cosmology theory using parables in the bible.

  by Aleon in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i wrote a cosmology theory using an expanding particle shaped as a perfect sphere.

  in the bible jesus christ speaks of this particle in his parables.

  this is good news!.

  Aleon, I read your paper. First, you make a grave mistake by using the word "theory". A theory is supported by observable evidence, experiment and has predictive capability shown to be true. You have none of that.

  You also don't have a hypothesis. A hypothesis has at the very minimum fasifiability. You've provided none of that. At best, you have an undeveloped idea.

  Another problem is your use of false equivalency. You are attempting to equate your ideas with Einstein's ideas on relativity.His ideas started as hypothesis, showed predictive power and were proven by experiment and observations hundreds of times over.

  So far, you've provided your ideas with no way to verify or test them, no predictive ability, etc., and only an attempt at a false equivalency and insult to others intelligence to defend them.

  What exactly, given the facts, do you think you have?

  Theists, why does God allow suffering..

  by The Quiet One in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  ..specifically, the suffering of animals.

  you can talk about free will/sin/people choosing to not listen to god etc to explain human suffering being allowed.. but how can you love a god that allows animals, that haven't sinned or chosen to not have anything to do with god, to have their short lives ended in often long, drawn out, painful ways.

  i could list stories i've read that would probably make you feel ill, but i'm not looking to shock anyone or start an emotional debate.

  I can see where you're coming from Viv. But the last chapter is going to one of peace and happiness and eternal life for people. Those people will understand the ultimate love God has for mankind.

  No, there is no "but" here. If I neglect my children, beat them, etc., it doesn't make all of that OK because I made sure to save up for their college education and buy them a car.

  Your god is a moral reprobate and a dick.

  Wish You Knew? Ask a Jew!

  because on another thread questions about just what the hell jews believe kept taking us off topic, i decided to start this new one.

  that's why, as you will notice, it has that new thread smell.

  i will do my best to give thorough and concise answers, but be warned: i do not take myself very seriously.

  So, the short answer of "What do Jews believe" is just "Shit happens" it would seem.

  I know the answers. You're just trying to weasel word your way into pretending a non-answer is an answer.

  So far you're showing how Judaism is exactly like JWs and Christianity in general. It's the pretense that ignorance is knowledge and obfuscation to hide that fact.

  "Just the way it is" isn't an answer, it's avoiding answers.

  How the Watchtower Screws Up Your View of Scripture

  by CalebInFloroda in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  while i do not argue the stand of atheism (because as a jew i find it totally logical and acceptable), i have noticed that there are odd carryover preconceptions about scripture that some hold as axiomatic about the bible (at least the hebrew texts), misconceptions that have nothing to do with the jewish scriptures themselves.. so regardless of what you may think of scripture, whether you believe it is of g-d or not, i thought some of you might enjoy a reference to see how much the watchtower teaching on scripture might still be influencing the conclusions you are making today...at least about the tanakh.

  jews read their texts acknowledging the following:.

  1. no scriptural concept of original sin.

  Append "We do too!" to your thread title for accuracy.
