Doctor Who: Massive Slump in UK Viewing Figures

could this be because - *gasp* - because this whole transgender scene is a big turn off?.

Tim Pool said it correctly:

Dr. Who has been turned into The Magic School Bus.

I can't wait to see the first human clone

by JohnTron72 in

hi everyone, i sure have been getting all kinds of replies by many on here and that's great.

i read all the post even if some don't believe in god at all.

however, i do believe and anything i say on here is from the depths of my belief and knowledge.

@Fink: right. The OP seems to imply that cloning a person also means replicating the thoughts, experiences, and personality... And it assumes religious people would agree with that definition of “soul”.

That is possible in movies... and various Netflix series.

Jesus said Truly I tell you This Day...

by JohnTron72 in

adam was told not to eat from the tree of knowledge for upon the very day of eating from it, he would die.

i had someone say that god lied because, adam didn't die that day but, the scriptures say to god a day is as a thousand years so, since adam lived 900+ years after eating , he indeed died within god's view of a day.

methuselah the oldest to ever live 969 years still within god's set time of a day.

Let’s eat, Grandma.

Let’s eat Grandma.

If I uttered the three words above, and you were tasked with writing down my words with the proper meaning, which version has a higher likelihood of being accurate and why?

I’m not sure how a human clone would logically demolish the idea of a soul. How does “the same DNA” imply a soul splitting? Wouldn’t you have to assume the soul is tied to the DNA? Isn’t that begging the question? Believers in a soul don’t think identical twins share a soul.

Adam could have put Jehovah In Paradox!

by JohnTron72 in

i'm going to be the first and throw this out there for others but, from careful study of the scriptures i've found a loophole that even adam who was perfect at the time missed!

i'm sure everyone has heard the conundrum about ,"can god create a rock he can't lift?

" and if he can't create one he can't lift, then god cannot do everything" well that doesn't really matter since we know jehovah says himself he cannot lie right?

@JohnTron:

I am an atheist. But I read your posts. I decided to comment because it seemed like your conclusion didn’t quite follow from the argument, even after granting that your still operating in a JW theology.

Internal inconsistencies are the worst...

JW's kick apostate son out of home - then he became a terrorist

I totally disagree with MeanMrMustard .... I have known and worked with Muslims who were lovely people. We are hearing of a tiny minority.

So have I. But that doesn’t have anything to do with what I said. Your Muslim friend is a “lovely” person precisely because he is a bad Muslim.

Were You Willing To Die For Jehovah?

by minimus in

jw
friends

we were supposed to be dedicated unconditionally to jehovah god.

we were willing to be persecuted to the death if need be.

if it came to taking a blood transfusion or dying, we were loyal to jehovah and would be a martyr for god.

@min: I have a sneaky suspicion that 80-90% of JWs are nominal.

Getting into the Biblical speculation (for shirts and giggles):

Does the Bible say how long Adam went without his Eve? I don’t recall a number ... why couldn’t he have gone womanless for hundreds of thousands of years? Does the Bible say how long they were together in the garden?

Yeah, I know Genesis talks about the creative “days”, but hell, even the WT regards those as metaphorical days, consisting of undetermined amounts of time.

Maybe Eve was a nag, and a few thousand years into it :

If you were God and gave man and woman everything to the eye on Earth freely, how would you know they truly were appricitive of the gift?

If I were God, then I would know everything, by definition. I would be omniscient. I would absolutely know, necessarily.
