the innocent civilians being attacked is the norm of the day.
attacking hospitals too are happening frequently.
now schools being attacked is becoming a regular affair (last of its kind massacred 150 children in peshawar on december 16, 2014)..
Abiather.. the abilities of other creature which differ or are superior to human ability is no more than a testament to the evolutionary process.
Puttiing yourself in the hands of an astrologer smacks to me of laziness, whatever happened to your own perceptions of studying the stars/planets and your own conclusions of how they influence your life , that would be diligent although imo a waste of your time which could be better served looking for the positve achievements of humankind.
Best wishes.

Abiather.. I certainly won't laugh at your experiences, but there are clearly precedents which mirror your reasoning ,as there are which show the human brain can convolute to salve the disappointments and heartache in life, unfortunately the brain being a master conjurer can lead to a delusionary state which will appear to the sufferer as real. Focusing on evidence,facts and an open mind to reason and argument without a dogmatic stance is imo the best route to happiness. Reliance on the supernatural is the path of lazy ignorance.

Hi abiather.. Thank you for the reply. Could you outline what form the goodness and beauty from the invisible hand of god takes in relation to your life?
Your question does have a ' leaning 'in that it implies world conditions are getting worse,it therefore follows by implication that it is posed to prove your premise.
Have you considered that ugliness may have benefited positively by the clothes of beauty.perhaps that's why the ugly clothing was discarded. There is always a benefit in seeking the good and assisting its progressive benefits individually and for others.
Best wishes.

Abiather...It seems to me your focus on these atrocities is to prove a point. Unfortunately your ' point ' ie that human behaviour in the present is getting worse cannot be based on cherry picking .
If on the other hand if you must cherry pick, why not seek and find joy in the multitude of positive and good that is achieved for humankind. Perhaps you could post some of your findings in the ' positive ' category?
Best wishes.
the best argument that we have an immaterial part (called spirit/soul) came from jesus christ.
however, it is recorded in the gospel of thomas (not in the traditional four gospels).
jesus says: if the flesh came into existence because of the spirit, it is a marvel.
Jesus was a bit unsure? He uses' if ' twice in the ' Thomas ' quote
I wonder if he had second thoughts!? ZZZzzzzzzzzzzzz oops sorry fell asleep .
identical twin studies show there is a strong inheritable component to religiosity.
thomas bouchard studied identical and fraternal twins raised apart and tested them on religious attitudes.. the correlation for the former turned out to be 62% compared to just 2% for the latter.
his colleague.
corinthians 1:18, holman christian standard bible "for to those who are perishing the message of the cross is foolishness, but to us who are being saved it is gods power.
an austrian radiologist, hermann moedder, experimented with medical students in the 40's, hanging them by their wrists with their hands directly above their heads (much like the watchtower pictures jesus on a stake).
in a few minutes, the students became pale, their lung capacity dropped from 5.2 to 1.5 liters, blood pressure decreased and the pulse rate increased.

i have been a regular visitor to this site for several years now.
i never really felt the need to set up an account and post...until now.
at the close of yesterdays meeting, an older brother gave the prayer.
Hi and welcome...yes indeed the manipulation and compliant vulnerability of the JWs is quite staggering.
If they were told by the hierarchy that the internet was still taboo, he would be praying for protection from it....how gullible!!
Best wishes .
