the Bible must be supplemented by something else
by drew sagan inthere is no book better to deal with than the holy bible.
it is symbolically called the sword of the spirit; and certainly it is better to manufacture and distribute the sword of the spirit than to engage in the arms race and in making the munitions of carnal warfare, which only result in injuring, maiming and killing.
but the bible must be supplemented by something else.

What is your favorite Bible?
by inquirer ini have a couple: new american bible, new jerusalem bible, new world translation and the world english bible.
i know i am going to cop it because i like the new world translation -- i have done a lot of research on it, and don't come to the same conclusion as nearly everyone else and think it's automatically bad just because it's done by the jw's.
doesn't mean i am pro-catholic because i like their bibles too...

The Subect of Religious Origins.
by Blueblades inthe subject of religious origins is a fascinating one, as the great multitude of books upon it tend to show.
the great difficulty today in dealing with the subject, lies in the very mass of the material to handle and that, not only on account of the labor involved in sorting through the material,but, because the abundance itself of facts open up temptation to rush in hastily with what seems a plausible theory.
the more facts, statistics, and so forth, that there are available in any investigation, the easier it is to pick out a considerable number which will fit a given theory.

War on "false religion"?
by apfergus inthis is something that was never entirely clear to me, but practically no interpretation of it makes any sense.
as i recall, the jws have some interpretation of the revelation accounts, or possibly one of the other cryptic visions, involving beasts and world governments that predicted that the united states government (or maybe it was the un?
) was going to one day wake up to the truth and declare war on false religion (babylon the great).
