Afterlife - why would Satan promote it?
by biometrics inso the watchtower says that the afterlife is purely an invention of satan, because of the 'you won't die' lie told to eve.
(even though the bible is littered with afterlife talk e.g.
luke 16:19-31, matthew 10:28, matthew 25:46, revelation 21:8,revelation 6:9-11, luke 23:43, john 3:16 ).

Sodom and the Benjamites
by Jeffro inhas anyone ever noticed the similarity between genesis 19:1-9 and judges 19:14-25?.
it seems that the sodom story was created to provide a reason why the people of sodom were killed by some kind of volcanic event that they couldn't understand, being a primitive society that thought such events must be divine execution.. it also seems that the story in judges was based on the sodom story, and was politically motivated to incite and/or justify hatred toward the tribe of benjamin.. any thoughts?
