by gumby inhey guys.
i got an idea as to why there is the same bitterness by many/not all, on this board twards christians like there is to dubs.

How was the WTC attack any different than...
by Seeker in...the attack on jericho by the israelites?.
yes, i know, this is controversial, but let's think about it.

In the big scheme of things, Jesus'....
by SixofNine in...suffering was not so bad.
his "perfection" and understanding of the situation would certainly have mitigated his suffering.. his death was not really death, not in any meaningful sense.

ex-JW's : Would you go to war?
by Jim Lad inmy ex-brother in law phoned this morning and asked me how i felt about going to war now that i'm not in the org anymore.
with so many years of being told not to i wonder how many of us still feel that way.

by Julie in:i welcome those of your quality of character and refusal to sink into the mire of atheism or deep cynicism, .
