The vote is in: SCIENCE vs RELIGION......who won?
by Terry inhistory has demonstrated:.
religion is following orders by implicitly trusting someone or something.. science asks questions.. religion purports to answer questions.. science seeks to disprove its own conclusions.. religion seeks to reinforce its own dogma.. science is error-correction toward adjusting for realities as they unfold.. religion internalizes against reality by mocking up a substitute.. science is the most recent development of the human mind.
technology proves science to be successful in advancing human progress.. religion disdains human progress and waits for the end.

What is Truth?
by onacruse inthis has been posted elsewhere, but perhaps it is worthy of a revisit:.
this question is one which every sincere christian should ask and seek to answer.

Heavenly bliss
by Homeros inthe watchtower society on false hopes for life in heaven (the watchtower, june 1 1981 page 6):.
bliss in heaven sprawled out on a billowy cloud, twanging a harp as you float along in space and eternity?

Verily I say unto thee, today shalt thou be with me in paradise?&!%
by ukescott inhi, i am ex-mo (ex-mormon) pretty new to this forum.
i need your help.. yesterday i engaged in a debate with a couple of korean jw's over "spirit" and "soul".. they argued that spirit is "lifeforce" like electricity that runs a computer and so when we die, we no longer exist in any shape and form.. so i asked them how they would interpret what jesus said to one of the bad guys on the cross "verily i say unto thee to day shalt thou be with me in paradise" (kjv).
this implies that a spirit continues to exist after death.. then they argued that the phrase has to be read in the following way.. "verily i say unto thee today, shall thou be with me in pradise" (nwt).
