Yes it does have something to do with your question.
The trinity is a concept. An attempt to explain the nature of God as revealed through the whole of scripture and to reconcile seemingly contradictory statements like 'there is one God' with other statements which Vander referred to such as Jesus being Ho Theos.
I will have a go at your challenge this evening.
However 'disallowing gobbledygook terms' is a bit unfair as the process is challenging and requires a bit of intelligence!

This is bizarre.
Cofty, can you not grasp the concept of a being, apparently the ultimate, eternal, all powerful being who could exist in a state that is completely different from humans and not governed by the same rules?

Would you expound a bit on that Cofty 😊
What are the heresies?
we are madly in love with each other and she is in the process of being divorced.
let me make one thing clear i'm not the reason for the divorce.
she attempted to reconcile with him but to no avail.
there has been many threads from various posters around the world about recent bethel layoffs.. so far i remember threads about:.
south africa.
united states.
i ask, "did god cause evil?
god did it!
whether they answer with #1 or #2, you've got them.
I will have a chance to try this and several other points with a JW I know who is open to genuine discussion. I'm fairly certain he will take Romans 8 and then say that it must be 'qualified' by other scriptures such as Paul's 'condemnation' of homosexuality in Corinthians. How would you reason Data Dog when that scripture is thrown in the mix? Genuinely interested.
Someone on page 1 of the thread said that 'as a heterosexual I am attracted to many different women but following my natural instincts would still be viewed as wrong'. That is true, but in the 'gay debate' especially within the church, most are talking about a monogomous relationship, hence the importance of legally accepted gay marriage. Few would support a promiscuous lifestyle, gay or otherwise.
a day in the life.
i took a hot bath this morning.
then, after making my bed and saying "good morning" to my roommate, sana--i jumped on my bike and headed off to breakfast.sound exciting enough for you yet?
so we know that wt settled out of court for an undisclosed sum and that presumably there was a 'gagging order' attached to the settlement.. not having really thought about what a 'confidentiality clause' meant before, i assumed in the past that it meant that you weren't allowed to disclose the amount of the settlement or any details about it.
but from the total and absolute silence once the settlement was made, i can only assume that it is a total gagging order.. how can the courts allow such a restriction to be put on a victim?
protecting the abusers and allowing the institution to cover up the lengths they go to to avoid admitting their guilt?
Please don't get me wrong! I am NOT criticising Candace Conti at all. She deserves everything she was paid by the WT and it still would not compensate for what she suffered.
I was just commenting on a system that allows an institution like WT to buy silence when compensating its own victim.

And that is my point WireRider.
The Courts must know why big institutions make these kind of settlements, so they could protect victims by warning these big boys that they will not allow them to bully and silence victims even in their settlements.

A gag order not a 'gagging order'?
Glad you cleared that one up!
Sorry for Conte instead of Conti.
