well treat others how you'd like to be treated and answer their questions
It might not have been intentional but you still didnt answer my question just then
so the latest clip on jw.org for kids is so wrong!.
it is about the "victory song".
lets all sing songs about how vengeful and destructive "our loving god" can be...along with cartoonish pictures...... all rejoice at the death of the evil people who used their "god-given free will", then got punished for doing so!.

28 if a man happens to meet a virgin girl who is not engaged and he seizes her and lies down with her and they are discovered,+29 the man who lay down with her must give the girls father 50 silver shekels, and she will become his wife.+ because he humiliated her, he will not be allowed to divorce her as long as he lives.

was just on the thread about lot and his messed up family life and was reminded of another part of the bible that made me feel physically sick the first time i read it.
Can't believe i missed this part out.
'13 “If a man takes a wife and has relations with her but then comes to hate her 14 and he accuses her of misconduct and gives her a bad name by saying: ‘I have taken this woman, but when I had relations with her, I did not find evidence that she was a virgin,’ 15 the father and mother of the girl should produce the evidence of the girl’s virginity for the elders at the gate of the city. 16 The girl’s father must say to the elders, ‘I gave my daughter to this man as a wife, but he hates her 17 and is accusing her of misconduct by saying: “I have found out that your daughter does not have evidence of virginity.” Now this is the evidence of my daughter’s virginity.’ They will then spread out the cloth before the elders of the city. 18 The city elders will take the man and discipline him. 19 They will fine him 100 silver shekels and give them to the girl’s father, because the man defamed a virgin of Israel, and she will continue to be his wife. He will not be allowed to divorce her as long as he lives.
20 “If, though, the accusation is true, and there is no evidence that the girl was a virgin, 21 they should bring the girl out to the entrance of her father’s house, and the men of her city should stone her to death, because she has committed a disgraceful act in Israel by committing sexual immorality in the house of her father. So you must remove what is bad from your midst.'
was bible god (or the people who contributed to the personality of bible god) a serial killer or a psychopath???.
really, from the book of genesis on god always wanted blood and flesh and fat of animals over everything else.
cain offers him fruits and veggies and god does nbot want that filth.
I don't think animal sacrifices ever actually made sense to me when i was in. It just seemed like a waste. Couldn't god provide the animals himself if anything?

not being resurrected isn't a problem if you're already dead. you wouldn't be alive to know that you're missing out on anything
also emeth i haven't been on this forum for very long but why is it that whenever i see someone ask you why you post here you just ignore it?

ADCMS this is off topic but why couldn't god just do that but with Eve or at least her first daughter? Seems more efficient to me.
when jws come around with their articles asking "is god cruel?
", i often point them to genesis 22:2:.
2 then god said, take your son, your only son, whom you loveisaacand go to the region of moriah.
I think that it would have been a more effective account if it turned out it was Satan (talking through a serpent of course and pretending to be god) telling Abraham to kill Issac and god intervined when he realised how faithful he was to him. Then god would lay down some rules that would be the basis for determining if it's god or something else. At least then it wouldn't have to be taken too literally.
But as it stands i don't see how it benefits anyone. If you live your life faithful to god, you might just get a really messed up task from him but... lol he was just testing you. Let's all just forget the fact that you were about to kill your beloved son.
If you don't go through with it then obviously you're an unfaithful little b*tch who's gonna get turned into salt or something.
its been a while since i spoke up.
after a lot of 'tactful' questioning, i have come under the conclusion that witnessing ttatt with dubs will never work.
there is nothing called reasoning with them.
Hey a little off topic but i have a theory that the wt always reffering to the jws as "sheep" is like an inside joke between them and the writing staff.

Notice that young man looking... I hope he has a brain.
Not if the wt have anything to say about that. If he has a brain then that means he can think for himself. You know who else thought for themselves? Eve.
