what is supposedly resurrected at resurrection?
by iblowmynoseatyou inthis is an idea that really freaked me out when i was still "in".
i asked it several times in groups of friends, and i would get two reactions: confusion/not understanding, and silence/looking at the ground.
if you die, and your body disinegrates, and the soul doesnt live on; in fact, nothing lives on, then what is resurrected?

So how do the Anointed Fly at death? No soul..no spirit??????
by oompa inhas wt ever explained wtf does go to heaven?
we have no soul...but are souls...and spirit nephesh and pneuma or what ever is breath....like breath of life.....so what goes to heaven?
btw it is so funny about that resurrection scripture that we dont weep overmuch like the nations do "who have no hope" because almost all other religions have a heavenly hope and a strong one.

ORG's Stand on Child Abuse
by Wordly Andre inin the press release made public addressing abuse, it states that: "however, even if the elders cannot take congregational action, they are expected to report the allegation to the branch office of jehovah's witnesses in their country, if local privacy laws permit.
in addition to making a report to the branch office, the elders may be required by law to report even uncorroborated or unsubstantiated allegations to the authorities.
if so, we expect the elders to comply.

Self Deceit and Faith.
by hillary_step inthis thread is inspired by a comment made on another thread, but i thought it would make an interesting discussion.. self deceit is described as a "misconception that is favorable to the person who holds it".
my premise is that faith is a form of self-deceit - lying to oneself.. so, i would ask of the "faithful" the following questions and would request that they be read carefully to ensure no that there is no misunderstanding of purpose.. 1) in what way is faith not self-deception?.
2) is a person who has faith in a god that you do not believe in, say for example siva, practicing a form of self-deception?.
