  Does God Really Care?

  by Undecided in

  2. friends

  i'm wondering about god lately.

  is he really in touch with the earth at all?

  how much trouble would it be for him to bring a rain in colorado to stop the fires and save the houses of those people?

  I ALWAYS HATED the perpetual feeling of never being good enough.

  ok...you hate it, that's reasonable....but what does that have to do with God...sounds more like false religion.

  Your View On Capital Punishment

  by Dutchie in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  we all know the bible's view on capital punishment.

  in fact, in the 1969 edition of aid to bible understanding, the author notes the following: .

  "the value of life is considered so sacred by god that the blood of a murdered person is viewed by him as defiling the earth and such defilement can be cleansed only by shedding the blood of the murdered.

  It seems like a very simple concept to me. There are laws made, that if broken, have consequences.

  If you brutally take someone's life from them and their family and friends, the law says you have to be prepared to forfeit your own. The decision isn't made by the state, the decision is made by that inidividual...who gambled with their own life by cold bloodedly deciding to take another's....the state is only carrying out that decision.

  I like LIZARD's quote from General Schwartzkopt: "I believe that forgiving them is God's function. Our job is simply to arrange the meeting."

  June 1st WT...The WTS's Fixation with Death

  by ISP in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the june 1st wt has the cover article should you be afraid of death?

  on the first page it sets the scene as to how death casts a shadow over us.

  it then seemingly gloats over how people in the world are fixated by death.

  Simplesalley:

  I'm going to take a very NEUTRAL position here without putting in my own beliefs or biases, but I found very interesting (if not conforting) the stories of those who have had near-death experiences. Now for all those nay-sayers...blow off and don't be sooo negative...at least be neutral, let anyone who's interested just read the numerous stories and think for themselves. Go to a search engine, Yahoo or Google (I think they're the same now) and type in near death experiences.

  For most of those who have had these experiences, you can't convience them other wise....it's only some that have NEVER experience one who will sometimes totally discount them. I try to keep an open mind.
