MY CHALLENGE TO FUNDAMENTALISTS/BIBLICAL LITERALISTS
by Nate Merit infor the fundamentalist christians reading this post who do not like my hermeneutics (principles of biblical interpretation), i challenge you to look up all the passages of the old testament that are quoted in the new testament.
read the surrounding context of each quotation as it appears in the old testament.
you will be shocked to discover that the context of the verses in the old testament almost never correspond to the way the verses are actually used in the new testament.

"Knocking" show in ' 06.
by Tigerman inas many of you know, there is going to be a pbs program aired next year titled, " knocking".
it''s a pro jw type of show where the jw's are depicted as a positive influence in society.
and i say "positive' in the sense that it touches on the most base of emotions.

by somebodylovesme ini doubt anyone remembers me, but i used to be around these boards i bit.
i think my last post was in the summer of 2004. as a refresher, my husband is an inactive jw.
we've been married for two and a half years now, and we're living hundreds of miles from where he grew up and attended meetings.

I'm not buying it! That people left the Witnesses and became Christians.
by free2beme ini tried it, could not swallow all the lies and misinformation they had.
i am sorry, but even if you deny the whole witness faith, there is still parts to christianity that they pointed out that you can not just ignore and act like it is okay to join another faith that is christian.
are you going to become catholic when your know their history?

Jehovah and Satan were the same in the Bible? Jewish Polytheism
by VM44 ini have read a few postings (which of course i cannot find now) concerning the early jewish beliefs were of a polytheistic nature.
many gods were believed in, and jehovah was only one.
i also recall that mention was made that the ancient jewish believed that satan and jehovah were the same god!
