Sorry, Brownboy. I won't ridicule you, because you haven't said anything worth ridicule yet. Of course, you call it ridicule and persecution, because of your beliefs of the WTBTS. Normal people call it debate.

In regards to your final post, don't let the door hit your ass on the way out.

How to respond?

i am still a newbie and i have been on vacation for the past week so i haven't had a chance to catch up.

but i have a little problem and i was wondering how others have handled a similar situation.

if a similar topic has come up recently, i apologize for the duplication.. my mother and i have always had a love/hate relationship.

shamus

Just take it if you can. Until you tell her that you've had enough, it's this relationship or probably absolute shunning.

You could tell her that you're depressed and to stop making you feel guilty, but remember that's lying too.

Is the Bible Just B.S.?

by shamus in

do you think that god enjoys killing people?

it sure sounds like it to me; jw doctrine more or less scared me into thinking that god is going to kill all persons whom he/she thinks is not doing his will.

my question is, how can god kill someone for not being "christian", or following the bible out of sheer ignorance?

Okay, Farkel, I am going to bite.

1. The first LIE in the Bible was told by God.

What was it?

Plain and Simple,

Wow!

There is such a thing as spirituality and awareness, heart and spirit - that is of good things. Love, understanding, compassion, etc --- these do exist in all of us, if we choose to acknowledge them, and all that can unite us, for good. Just be aware that religion was hijacked a long time ago for political ends, and it is still is.

How true!
