Thank you for redirecting me to the right organization!
by economy inthank you, jw.net and cofty, for redirecting me to the right organization!.
when i posted why did god permit scriptures to be corrupted?
then i thought, if there is an organization that believes all scriptures are corrupted (which obviously makes it enemy of all religions), that organization is not ordinary, but gutsy, lionhearted, and worthy of close examination!

Why did God permit Scriptures to be corrupted?
by economy inif someone informs you that your shop caught fire, and firefighters are on the job, you will run to the spot.
however, if you had already sold that property on the previous day (which this messenger is ignorant of), you are likely to respond, saying: shop is not mine..
situation is same with god.

Confusion over the parable of the prodigal son
by economy inthough parable of prodigal son is superlative in quality as it graphically picturizes the scientific law of cause and consequence, its conclusion defames god.
when the prodigal son returned repentant, his father showed his delight saying: let us celebrate this by killing a fattened calf.
(luke 15:23) such a concept (let us rejoice by giving maximum pain to another innocent living being) seems to be interpolation for the following reason:.

Why does the Almighty need a mediator?
by economy ingod is alike to all of his children, hence cannot elevate one child above all others just because one was brought into existence before others.
(ezekiel 18:4) someone has to be first-born which does not give him any superiority over others!
interestingly, jesus simply dismissed the whole idea of one being placed over the others as pagan.

Paranormal activity in a room at Ohio University
by economy inwhy this room (no 428), located at ohio university, is unavailable to students?.
it has been boarded up and closed off because of various paranormal reports regarding the room.
poltergeist activity has been felt: objects flying across the room, doors that open and shut by themselves, and dark shadows appearing and disappearing without explanation.

A rarest of rare inventions made—it is better to remain open-minded!
by economy init seems even the famous scientific laws such as the law of conservation of energy (and lenz's law, which forms the basis of mechanics and thermodynamics laws that suggests machines cannot attain over a 100% efficiency) are all not ultimate.
someone has already succeeded in developing a space generator, a super high-efficiency machine that produces power from vacuum.
the thing is going commercial now with a famous electric company purchasing its the patent.

Book of Job can help despite its absurdities!
by economy inwe are incapable of grasping stories that do not follow rational sequence of cause and effect.
one such typical example is book of job:.
1) it presents a god who tries to please his adversary at the cost of great suffering to his beloved ones..

Why does Bible present God as too imperfect?
by economy ingenesis 1:31 says: god saw all that he had made, and it was very good.
in other words, god rated his works as perfect..
if this is true, why his later works are too imperfect?

Memorial Invitation campaign—A bitter experience
by economy inlast year when i went to distribute memorial invitation, i had a bad time talking to a house-holder who happened to be an ex-nun.
she said: you are wasting your time.
jesus had no idea that his death would have a sin-atoning value (which is of course a later invention by later theologians.

Adam and Eve account does not meet the criterion of a story!
by economy inadam and eve story does not follow the common logic..
1) children would never believe a lie (especially from a stranger) against their father who has already proved a supreme benefactor to them!.
2) if even if they believed, normal course of action would have been to wait!
