I can at least walk away from things, that's why I still have all of my teeth. You?

Still got em all, despite being a man and not running, I mean, I'm sorry, *walking* away, when things get tough.

I don't like to treat people like shit in any space BUT I can't help but call out those who DO treat others like that.

Well, in that case I suggest you try it sometime. Of course, you will have to stop acting like you do and then be tough enough to stand up to the calling out you one day hope to be tough enough to deliver, but it's good to have a goal to be stronger than you are.

If anyone is man enough to walk away, raise your hand...

I know. It's always the manly way to proclaim running away, er, I'm sorry, I mean power walking away, as strenth and then attempt to lay claim to it.

Nice try, good attempt, better luck next time. Just consider this a free lesson in the learning experience on your journey. One day you may understand.

Aldous Huxley, Brave New World

i was reading aldous huxley's brave new world and thinking,this is what society is becoming.especially since nowadays people want to be distracted with the use of the internet and social networking sites such as facebook and twitter.i like how it says " what we desire will destroy us" because in the grand scheme of things.

it most likely will and that is a very disturbing thoought.it is shocking how he wrote the book in 1932 and it was written during the 1920's, all of what he is sayiing is becoming a scary reality..

notverylikely

People in the U.S love distraction and not logical thinking.I for one am not that.

Facebook and Twitter are not distractions that prevent logical thinking. They are new facets of reality.

I am curious, what do you think logical thinking entails that has been lost today?

TRINITY Challenge for JW's, Unitarians and Anyone Else

by UnDisfellowshipped in

trinity challenge using only the new world translation of the holy scriptures -- let us debate and reason on the scriptures about whether god almighty is a trinity, or is only one person.. on another thread, bane said that we know for a fact immediately that nearly all religions other than jehovah's witnesses are false because almost all of them believe in the trinity.

and bane claims he can "out-scripturize" anyone with the help of jehovah.

* the son was praying to the father.

then it would not have been possible for anyone to have put him to death, now would it?

With God, all things are possible.

I repeat: You can't talk to people in real life like you do here. You'll get your teeth knocked down your throat if you do...

You haven't actually said that, so repeating it is probably a slip of the mind. No matter, just because YOU can't doesn't mean others are equally as ... limited in their options.

I don't care who's wrong or right...

The wrong usually try to make that a salient point.

Doesn't make you any less of a prick however... but I digress until this thread is locked too...

Oh, please don't think I ever said I wasn't a world class dick. It's a great thing to know what you are and be good at it. The world needs dicks. It also needs people like you. It needs all of us, the strong, fast and smart like me, and the opposite. You.The ones that think that saying the word "drunk" means you have won or gained anything or somehow proven anything other than you don't have an actual intelligent point.

Lady Lee, my dear, lock away.

Elders, please read this thread

by asilentone in

notverylikely said there are average 2 bible studies per month for each 100 publishers.

i told him that i disagree.

since i was a secretary's helper, i have seen pioneers put pretty good number of bible studies on field service reports each month.

notverylikely

I agree with Vampire that you are drunk.

Well then it should be very easy to refute me. Go for it. Unless me drunk (which I am not, BTW) can so easily destroy any argument you make. I mean, all you gotta do it a little math. Go for it.

However, whether I am drunk is not at all the issue. That, since your implied proposition that you are NOT drunk is obvious, should be easy for you to prove. Knock yourself out.

Do you agree that many other congregations probably have the similiar congregation report each month as my old congregation?

Hi. After this I am not playing anymore since you clearly don't have the math to understand.

Agreement or not is irrelevant. Unlss you showed me the number normalized and discouting children bible studies of existing members, you have no leg to stand on. You are asserting there are more, prove it.

Anything else is irrelevant.

As Tallahassee said, nut up or shut up.

Did Jesus resurrect Himself?

by brotherdan in

this is a common scripture, but i find it interesting that it is in direct conflict to jw belief.

john 2:19 says, "jesus answered them, "destroy this temple, and i will raise it again in three days.

" the jews replied, "it has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and you are going to raise it in three days?

notverylikely

"In the last time there will be ridiculers, proceeding according to their own desires for ungodly things."’ (Jude17, 18)

Awesome. Since people have been pointing out out the ridiculousness of Christianity for thousands of years, the last times ain't anytime soon.
