Everywhere I look I see young thirteen year olds wearing next to nothing, dancing like the video ho's they see on t.v. an dbehaving completely disgusting for their age. At thirteen they should be playing with barbies and boys should be building forts( thats a little lame, but still!) I mean what is the rush to grow up? i dont understand it. They could care less about sexual diseases and pregnancy1 i know a girl that is pregnant at fifteen! It breaks my heart to see little year girls try to act like grown women and even take it as far as lying about their ages! Is it uncool now for girls to hold onto their innocence until they are at least of age? My gosh, its disheartening. How do you feel about this. No rude answers please.

We are constantly bombarded with news of murders, sexual assaults and fraudsters etc. And at the end of all your struggles, you end up in a wooden box rotting in the ground.

I know you atheists may scream 'NO!!', but i think i'm going to take up religion. But i will be moderate not some lunatic extremist

"After people receive blessings that they asked for,very
few send back acknowledgments. "How does one acknowledge God's
blessings?" ."Simple. "Just say, "Thank you, Lord.""What blessings should they acknowledge? "If you have food in the refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof overhead and a place to sleep. You are richer than 75% of this world. "If you have money in the bank, in your wallet, and spare change in a
dish, you are among the top 8% of the world's wealthy.
"If you get this on your own computer, you are part of the 1% in the world who has that opportunity."
Also... "If you woke up this morning with more health than illness,you are more blessed than the many who will not even survive this day. "If you have never experienced the fear in battle, the loneliness of imprisonment, the agony of torture, or the pangs of starvation, you are ahead of 700 million people in the world. please count your blessings and thank jesus for all good and bad times

I was doing some research, and on this website, that provides instruction regarding the Quran ( http://www.submission.org/satan/representative.html ) I found the following, disturbing text:

"In the verse [4:117], the Quran teaches that by worshiping Jesus, Mohammed, the sun, the moon or any other idol, the disbelievers are worshiping Satan. Because he is the one who invites them to do so. The Jesus' worshipers are in fact Satan's worshipers."

Directly quoting the Quran:

"They even worship female gods besides him; as a matter of fact, they only worship a rebellious devil." [4:117]


In that it is taught by the Quran, that those who worship Jesus as Lord as one who worships the Devil, it is no wonder followers of Islam believe we should be killed. In that case - how can there ever be peace among the two, and in light of this, why do they hate the monotheistic Jews? And if there is no reconcilable peace - what should be the course of action?

Articulate responses please.

I don't get it - a bunch of people decided that they do not like a country e.g. Britain because it is involved in killing "our brothers" in the middle east but they detonate bombs that kill 'brothers' in the UK (muslim people died in the London bombings).

So maybe its because they do not like the way we live in a free, multicultural and fantastic country so why don't they just leave? What makes them think they can play god and choose / force by fear what people should think and do?

So, can anybody tell me if these people have any point what-so-ever or are they really just completely warped and sick individuals (I am trying to understand!)?

If you are not a baptized practicing JW then DO NOT answer this question.

The Watchtower says:
Matthew 24:34 "Truly I say to YOU that this generation will by no means pass away..." The aging of the 1914 generation was pointed to again and again as clear evidence of the shortness of the remaining time.

In the 1940s the view held by the Organization was that a "generation" covered a period of about 30 to 40 years. This lent itself to the constant insistence of the extreme shortness of time left.

In the Awake magazine of October 8, 1968 (pages 13, 14) says: "Jesus was obviously speaking about those who were old enough to witness with understanding what took place when the "last days" began...


Doesn’t what Matthew says contradict trying to pick a certain time of the end?

Matthew 24:36 – “No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.

I'll post a link to an article about it, but for those who don't like to follow links, here's the main point of the law:

"It allows the government to seize individuals on American soil and detain them indefinitely with no opportunity to challenge their detention in court. And the new law would permit an individual to be convicted on the basis of coerced testimony and even allow someone convicted under these rules to be put to death."

They claim that this law will only be used to persecute terrorists, but when you get right down to it, what's stopping them from deciding that an American citizen who simply opposes the war is a terrorist? They wouldn't even have to tell you why.

How does the signing of this law mesh with Bush's claim to be a "good Christian?" Why do American Christians stand by while the rights they claim are God given are taken away?

Who, exactly, is the terrorist here? Because I tell you what, I'm terrified, and it's not of Muslims, Iraq, or Iran.

Many religions beleive that women should only wear skirts or dresses does the bible acually say that it is a sin for women to wear pants? Back in the days of Jesus Men and Women wore robes and it is not concidered wrong for men to wear pants.

If you have the talent, education, and resources to do something important, does that mean you should?

For instance, if you knew with relative certainty that you could be the researcher who cures cancer, or the president who facilitates great international peace, or the writer who authors the greatest novel of the century, does that create a moral obligation or duty to do so?
