  Do you hate God

  by Star tiger in

  i beginning to think that this would be a good way of thinking, a totally righteous being would not let all the shit that is happenning to people prevail, this being cannot have the best interests of man as his first priority, it's all about ego and no matter how the human familty suffers, he hates pretty much everyone, as the tv show says, your fired, let's get a better god, one who at least gives everyone a chance!!.

  i welcome comments from god apologists, to at least have an argument as to why they put they're faith in someone that does'nt give a shit about them!.

  AG makes it perfectly clear that others should not listen to her, but to the Lord if/when he speaks to us. The very opposit of a cult leader who tries to say that they are the only ones with this power.

  Wow Prodigal Son. I appreciate all of the time you put into your reply. Actually my friend and I both found the God within.

  You see, when a Christian is born again, the Holy Spirit of God and Christ dwells within us. We do not feel as you said, unhappy and wracked with self-loathing. That is the feeling that the cult gave us, but being accepted by God and Christ actually does give us God-like qualities, self-esteem, peace and confidence.

  So.... Prodigal Son, how would you propose one find the True God within? I have a friend who was a buddhist for a while and found nothing.

  A Question for those who have trust in the Bible/Jesus..

  You can find evidence for the Biblical accounts in secular writings. Celsus, a Roman author and avid opponent of Christianity ends up confirming much of the accounts, including Jesus' work of miracles.

  I remember the Watchtower had a quote from a letter written by a Pharisee who was complaining about Jesus, "the magic man". I remember looking that up and posting it on a forum or facebook group, but now I can't find it.

  Look at this with an open mind, do a google search for secular evidence of Jesus miracles and refer to the sources. Do the work. I did.

  The Jehovah character worshipped by JW's is truly Satan.

  That I can agree with.

  "Feeling sorry for yourself" about being hit by your husband is not Christian 2/15/12 WT Page 25 P 12

  by yourmomma in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  have anyone of you read, the absolutly jaw dropping paragraph in this article about a women who was hit by her husband?

  its in page 25 of the 2/15/12 wt study edition (i read the dumbed down version).. .

  if there was any question, that the watchtowers stance is for wives to simply take it when their husbands abuse them, this makes it crystal clear.. who the hell is scanning these things before they go to print?

  Okay---then tell me. What was the penalty for raping an unbetrothed virgin? (although I do dispute your understanding of defiling, as many religious people understand it to be rape, and many translations use rape, but just for the discussion)

  NC

  Good question. I am not sure how I reasoned that one. I was wrong.

  It wasn't rape in that scripture. I got sick of hearing about it so I looked it up... it was "defiling her" as in taking her virginity.

  Jesus openly stated that he was changing the law.

  Oops. sorry, the first paragraphs are from Watchtower 2/1/1969 p. 71

  and here is the full quote for Watchtower 1917 November 1 p.324: "He proved by Bible chronology the prescence of the Lord from 1874 on"

  Jesus disagreed with the law in several instances. Many of the laws were written while taking into account the people's hard-heartedness.
