Spiritual Resurrection?
by Morocco inhey everybody, i'm still pretty new here but have been lurking about the boards for sometime.
i just had a thought and was wondering what you guys think about it.
it was actually inspired by another thread, but it has to do with the resurrection.

Have you made what you consider to be life-long friends here?
by Crumpet in.
now that you have attended apostafests and gotten to know people over the phone or by email here at jwd do you feel you have made life long friends;you know the kind you'd expect to come to your wedding or to be there at your funeral - would drop in on for coffee if you ever happened to be in their part of the world?.
or is it primarily just a forum of faceless entities who you appreciate the comments and support of online but don't necessarily feel an affection for or an urge to meet or further cement that friendship?

A Bad experience with JW is a permit for SIN?
by El Mariachi ini've been reading some sad experinces here... i dont see anyone talking about the bible... only how misserables the organization made their lives... ok ...so because of that...now i have permission to smoke marijuana and commit fornication?
this sounds pretty much like aa... and everybody having his/her personal "superior power" who is giving them the permit to do whatever they want...
i've been df for 4 years now and also dont agree with some jw teachings... why instead of blaming the wt for everything dont we look for the real truth in the bible and make things right.

WHY BIBLE PROPHECY IS COMING TRUE
by Mistah MOJO infor the sake of argument let's say that you're a mad semitic "prophet" writing a few centuries bce, and you throw some cryptic references into your scroll about the messiah and some odd chronology as to when he will appear.
you make it into an interesting little math game to get and keep the attention of the reader and to give your scroll a mystical mysterious "deep" appearance.
you safely place the arrival of the messiah hundreds of yers in your future.. .

All sex in dangerous and sinful
by Norm infor the umpteenth time the watchtower society has published an article about sex.. this time i am referring to some material they have seen fit to publish on their website:whats wrong with premarital sex?.
http://www.watchtower.org/library/g/2004/7/22a/article_01.htm.
as we know god is extremely preoccupied with sex.

Were dinosaurs part of a pre-Adamic "paradise"?
by M.J. inthe wts seems to affirm a lot that adam's blunder really screwed up the earth, and that the earth was not meant to be this place full of killing, disease, death, pain, etc.. but according to the wts version of the story, did god create the earth with these types of features before adam even came on the scene?
the wts does not deny the existance of dinosaurs, who in their words were created prior to mankind during the 5th or 6th symbolic day-ages.
yet its clear from fossilized remains that dinosaurs killed each other, had a high mortality rate, often died young, suffered from disease such as cancerous tumors: .

False "Reasoning from the Scriptures" (all rights reserved)
by yaddayadda inthe reasoning from the scriptures book lists 7 criteria for determining which religion is right?
putting aside for the moment the assumption in the societys question, that there is only one right religion, which 3 of the societys criteria do you think are the weakest and which 3 are the strongest, and why?
(those who dont believe that the bible is gods word please try and suspend your disbelief when answering) .
