Ghosts and Spirits

by Cold Steel in

i've been watching the bio channel lately and hearing people relate their stories of ghosts and the supernatural.. although i think some people do experience demonic presences, i think some people (for whatever reason) find it difficult to move on.

jws believe everything is caused by "demons," but there are many near death experiences where people clearly seem to see family members who have helped them and who have manifested themselves with feelings of peace and serenity.

since i don't believe that satan can duplicate these feelings of well being, i was wondering what you think of such manifestations, good or bad.. also, have you ever had any experiences, again, good or bad, in your lives?

Well I can't say I tried, I would just like to point out that if you read any old literature demons were called spirites, and even more earlier spirites were called Gods. Calling any of these really should mean the same thing, but what happens with time (the same with words) they become a separate or different meaning, spirits now are referred to the living dead or angels and nobody calls a demon a spirit or a God but evoking either gods demons or spirits are all forms of witchcraft and they all act the same way.

I was not going to post but what the hey, my expiriences are really why off what people expect, most of the times I dont even say anything, its either a I believe blablah also happened to me or its the your nuts look, before I went to sleep I was tormented because I saw every murder that occurred live and sometimes I would see it in the news the following day, could any atheist explain this too me logically? I had nothing wrong with me and I was too young to take drugs.

When God breaks his own laws

by Nickolas in

if one assumes that god made the universe it follows that he made it according to a very complex set of physical laws that determine how things work.

the quest to identify and understand those physical laws is at the very forefront of science and great strides have been made over the past few centuries, in particular during the last century.

we have known for only a few centuries that the earth rotates on its axis and orbits around the sun along with a number of other planets, more recently that the solar system is located in a radial arm of a spiral galaxy swirling around some enormous black hole.

Tec: My question was probably a bit vague, all the wars and killings, suffering occurs only to the bad, the prophecy of the messiah would be one to rule with authority as king on earth... all according to the OT.

The NT God is love, long suffering (Paul) occurs more to good people, God leaves everyone in the dark, jesus dies which confuses even more the jews, , Jesus keeps the torah and abolishes it.

Then later after his death apostles write scripture which later in aramaic latin greek are text contradictions (Mark and Luke on Jesus)

see the difference OT-God of wrath NT - God of love

How can ex 34:6 And he passed in front of Moses, proclaiming, “The Lord , the Lord , the compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness, you read from Exodus to Deuteronomy and none of this makes any sense, Im just glade I was not from Canaa at that time.

So does anyone agree that the God of the OT is the same in the NT?

I find it a bit bias and shallow vid 1, sorry not my thing. natural selection? yeah like the animal kingdom does not live in perfect balance, instinction? isn't that man's fault? In vid 1 your not really attacking JW's but everyone that believes in creation. The puddle thing (big bang) is just like saying that two cars collide, explode and fuse together into a ferrari enzo.

Enjoyed vid 2

And I think the speaker misses the point in vid 3, the purpose people see is something more meaningful than family pets and material wealth, why are we here? do we have a purpose? what comes after life? enjoyed the rest of it.

SBC:

I never read the book of mormon, are you inplying that I believe everything I read? I have read other books which are satanic but prior to that I was just an inocent kid that became demonised, I could go on but whats the point. From what you wrote your "to be consistent in scrutinizing outrageous claims" how are you exactly scrutinizing something that can not bee seen or explained scientifically? I hope that answers your question.

You wrote: So when you were a kid you were at a bookstudy and after it ended, everyone walked outside and witnessed a possessed broom thrashing the chickens, and then someone performed an exorcism in which they offered it food? I'm just curious how old you were at the time.

Now your just putting words in my mouth, the chicken bashing scene had nothing to do with the demon food/sacrifice.

With that rationale I'm probably just a figure of your imagination.

Ps I didn't offer food but the exorcist did, didn't work really but it works with the illuminati (not all are satanists), it works when you summon and dont wish to be possesed

SBC wrote: BP, I realize this is innocent stuff, no malicious intent, just people sharing their anecdotes of what they perceive to be spirit encounters or whatever. I'm really not trying to take the wind out of anyone's sails. I apologize if I come off too pushy.

When I was young we had the weekday meeting (bookstudy) at my granparents place, after the meeting was over everyone was walking to their cars and a broomstick started to chase and hit the chickens we had around the yard. Around 15 people saw that, now what makes you so sure the me and everyone else perceives these spirit encounters?

Referring to all these shows and pics, not all are real, the majority of pics are false, the only true are the vintage black and white ghost pics, omens are just dust particles or computer generated, a lot of pictures (and old) can be digitalised and stuff added to it, I dont think paranormal "shows" are real, I just find it all too corny, there are some good documentaries about ghosts one being which occured in the UK, mom and her three (or 4) daughters living in a house, poltergiest occurred live on the news but I dont recall what the documentary is called. Spirits from dead people is not true, demons can lie and kill you, the same principall applies with the OT food offerings can calm down the demon
