    from november study wt page 7 par 17

    "Consider too how Davids example of earnestly seeking god's guidance can help us to resist the temptation to view pornographic images"

    "Meditating on his elevated standards equips us to keep free from the snare of pornography"

    ????? what elevated standards? A voyeur/adulterer/murderer is an example for us to help us not to view porn?

    who writes this stuff?

    King David is the worst example of morality there is. I don't know why they would use it either.

    It's such bull.

    Maybe he's an example of 'their' morality.... Do as I say, don't do as I do?

    Exactly Hoser. Very poor example indeed. If anyone else had done what David did they would have been put to death. Maybe the GB gets their ideas as to how the rules apply to the R&F and not to them from this example. Who knows. It is all just so screwed up. -Leslie-

    David was a sadistic nut. Even in battle there are rules.

    1 Samuel 18;25-28--How did he become King and marry

    Saul,s daughter. Saul only ask David to bring 100 foreskins

    of his enemy. David, hell I will present 200, that will impress

    Saul. If that happen on the battlefield today that person would

    be viewed as a certified nut case.

    Tyrant David is an example of why all forms of Judeo-Christi-SCAM-ity and Islam are all immoral. Any book that pretends to uphold this scumbag is not worth the paper it's printed on, and neither is the religion worth the time it wastes to attend services.

    To start, since when is it moral to murder people simply because they do not worship the same god you worship? Just go into a foreign land and slaughter everyone that doesn't worship your god, even though their Gods could well be a lot truer than Jehovah Tyrant. If David is the epitome of Judaism after doing that, he is worse than every anti-Semite on the planet put together. And the details are in the LIE-ble, proudly displayed for all to see. And, unlike the Bath-Sheba incident, Tyrant David was not the slightest bit sorry for invading foreign lands to slaughter everyone that doesn't worship his god because they don't worship his god. Tyrant David is a big embarrassment to any organization he claims to represent.

    And this scumbag is the one that confiscated so much from the Gentile nations simply to build a stupid temple for his god. This certainly isn't anything to be proud of, yet the LIE-ble glorifies such actions! The LIE-ble glorifies every action that Tyrant David has done except the Bath-Sheba incident, the handling of the Ark, and his census problems (for sure the least of his problems). I am willing to bet that life under Tyrant David, which the LIE-ble and the Christians glorify so much, would be much more oppressive than under Nazi Germany, which Christians all vilify. For sure, I would never vote Tyrant David into office, not even for something like dog catcher.

    In a meeting with the elders a brother had confess to

    adultery. One of the elders lovely told him, look at David

    example. Here we have a man that committed adultery, lied

    and killed a lot of people. God forgave him, so look on the bright

    side. Yea, but David did not lose his entire family and he was made

    king, and he was never DF and shaun. This poor guy life was

    ruin he was DF. Yes a great example.

    David was a murderer.

    Yet Jehovah protected him!

    Everyone around him had to pay for David's sins, usually by their death.

    David would then go off and sing songs about how great and wonderful Jehovah is.
