why did jesus supposedly cast the demons into a herd of pigs?.
(matt 8 / luke 8).
and, how were there so many demons inside one man, that when "released" by jesus, it took a whole pack of pigs to contain them??.
David_Jay, Seems you are taking all religious texts very seriously and trying hard to add substance to it. Take it EZ friend. Religion is all about fun, for most people on this Blog. Just saying. Its your wish to write your mind.

Great Points. Should ask a Christian next time

he pigs might have committed suicide, but spirit creatures (Mythological creatures) certainly wouldn't die from a mere fall off the cliff. So why kill the pork chops?

Why would Jesus obey the request of two demons anyway? They ask to be sent into the swine and he grants them that request. Why not just destroy them or send them into a rock or something?
punkofnice, Yes I too wonder how I believed all these non sense once upon a time. Voltaire's statement is absolutely true
"God is a comedian playing to an audience too afraid to laugh"

The beauty of religion is, people tend to take funny, impossible, silly and ridiculous events in their holy texts as allegorical.

Mark 5: 13 Jesus Extracted two evil spirits from a person , and as per their request, infused them into 2k pigs which ran a mighty race up the hill and committed suicide by plunging into the sea.
The Bible never mentions if Jesus was sued for this for animal cruelty or for damaging other peoples property.
One thing for sure, somebody would have given a spoiled bacon to Jesus that made him hate pigs like anything.
anybody got any idea why the cover picture on the young people ask book was changed?
they removed the picture of the boy bottom right & superimposed a different head.
maybe the guy got dfd or maybe it was to change it to an asian guy rather than 2 caucasians?
Italics mine.
1 Peter 3:3
Do not let your adorning be external—the braiding of hair and the putting on of gold jewelry, or the clothing you wear— Else would be Photo shopped by the Holy GB
i never understood why many jehovah’s witnesses will say “the friends”.
it seems so mormon like..
In India they would say brothers and Sisters. In USA, Friends.
I was annoyed about this when I came to USA as I felt somewhat worldly to refer as Friends.

Any dub who notices the change should "Adjust their thinking now" and adapt to the new Photo shopped head as New Light. Else they are in trouble.
Evidence that Jehovah is speeding up his Chariot
if any member of the gb were to turn apostate---and join this site-----who would you like it to be ?
and why ?.
and--least like--and why ?.
Would anyone of the GB leave their Lofty, Luxurious, Salaried, hefty allowance, insured, admired, idolized, Business class lifestyle and become an apostate. Hardly.
Anyway to answer your question, I would be happy to see any GB as an apostate and would greatly commend him for his guts and honesty.
the second coming of christ was in the 1st century at the destruction of jerusalem the temple the law and the old covenants.
so the new eternal covenant came into force in which people of every tribe tongue and naation would enter into.
the new jerusalem not built by human hands nor with bricks and mortar its spiritual cannot be seen but people will stream to it the sin issue is done there is no more judgment for those in christ .
So many Jews see the Messiah as a personifaction of a hope, of a day when humanity will conquer war, sickness, poverty, and all of its worst enemies. We, all of humanity, will rule over all that is evil and bring redemption and peace to our world. We have the ability
That is a Good Hope. I believe this would come true one day. Thanks
There was always one question that I wanted to ask a Jew. Are you completely fine in accepting the blood shed rampage performed by Moses, Joshua, David, Samuel in your Holy book ? If you say that God commanded them how are you so sure ? Even if God commanded, how can you accept that God as a loving one ?
Even terrorists today slaughter in the name of God, and claim that their God commands it.
