YOU are bound to be like God, KNOWING good and bad
by nicolaou inlet's assume for the moment that god decides what is good and what is bad.
does he 'a' choose what is good because it is obviously good or 'b' is it good simply because he says so?
if 'a' then what is good is independant of god and he has no choice but to accept it as good.. if 'b' then the definition of what is good is arbitrary - god could decide that child abuse was good and it would be because he said so.. clearly this is ridiculous because we all recognise child abuse to be a bad thing and that is why god would never label it as good.

new public edition of the WT
by loosie inok i have about 4 friends who don't know that i am out of the org.
because there is 3000 miles between us and the subject has not come up.. well one of them has emailed me a jpg copy of each page of the public edition of the wt.. i was feeling a little ornery, and i replied back.
i said wow having a private copy and then a public copy of the wt makes me feel like a secret agent.

Good things = Praise God, Bad things Diss Him.....
by LouBelle ini've got a "christian" friend - he's been having a hellofa time - his wife left him about 2 years ago, sued for custody, the wife gives him a hard time about seeing his kid and a whole lot of other things that i won't bore you with.. he know questions gods' existance, simply because god hasn't waved his wand and sorted out his problems.
he keeps quoting scripture and i keep telling him not to take everything so literally in the bible....he is cross with god and of course ranting and raving.. i keep trying to tell him that 1. sometimes nonsense does just happen and it has nothing to do with god.
2. if he truly were christian he would follow god simply so things can go well with him.
