I am a man I have a beard and masculine as can be, I think men should wear skirts as much as posible and so I wonder most places of business (McDonalds, Carl's, etc...) have a right to refuse service.
I don't wear frilly cutzy skirts.

I've read responses saying the NWT is only scripture in plain english, and that's why Jehovah Witnesses use it ---

However, New International Version is simple language, Contemporary English Version ~ plain language, the New King James Version ~ easy to understand...

AND YET: These versions all contradict yours in selected references. These versions are all accepted as accurate translations of Bible, whereas yours is not.

So, if you really wanted to persuade people of your 'sound doctrine' why don't you accept to use any of these translations? People would give you much more merit. Is it because your version has references changed and taken out of context to fit the Watchtower Society fictional hypotheisis?

Can any Christian here name from memory all the names of those sons and fathers in the Old Testament.
Don't do it, just say if you can

Just: Yes or No.

No drawn out answers please as to why it's "only a 'comedy' "- if you call it that.

Thanks!

I know that they rely on their magazines, and that they will be disfellowshipped and "fall away" if they study without their watchtower magazine, but has anyone ever been converted to the Jehovas Witness religion by reading the bible and praying about which church is true? Or are the weak just preyed on by the door knockers? Please, no attack I am just curious.

I work in a building with a reception area. There's a lady in reception who is constantly looking at me, constantly glaring at me. I'm only a temporary staff, we've had no arguments or anything. What gives? She's significantly older than me, but very slim and very well dressed. Could it be a jealousy thing?
What can I do? It's starting to get to me - I get someone like this in every office I work at.

I was surfing the tv channels one night and this televangelist actually preached that the reported UFOs are angels who have been "kicked out" of heaven ... that they are "fallen angels". In other words, he is preaching that these sightings can not be governmental spacecraft nor possibly more tehnologically-advanced life forms from other areas of the cosmos. How in the heck can people preach this garbage and where do they get the funding to broadcast this ridiculous rhetoric? I find it outrageous and misleading! This minister ought to be locked up in the funny farm. Do you agree or disagree and why? http://www.jvim.com/

"everything" as in every human, and the planet upon which He placed us, and the trees and the animals He gave us to keep us company.

If you were to love everything selflessly, who would find justifiable fault with you?

And what is wrong with this? That you must give up selfishness? Give up hate? Give up fear and distrust?

Isn't that what He wanted, and isn't that what you've promised to give Him?

Why choose ignorance when you can choose wisdom? Every decision you make requires you to make that choice first.

But you -do- have to think before you choose.

Ain't life unfair?

but I have found many , many quotes from your very own Watchtower that says you do feel that way..in fact the organization is your Mother..and God is the Father too..

here is one quote from your Watchtower..

Jehovah's Witnesses are identified as God's prophet to the nations for today (Watchtower, 15 January 1959, pp. 40-41

So, why do you keep saying that you have never claimed that?

I know this sounds weird, but I was just sitting here thinking that I have never met someone who "found Christ" when they weren't at rock bottom emotionally. If you were raised in Christianity you came "back to Jesus" because your life was awful. I never hear someone say, "I was walking by a church just happy as can be and went inside to take a look. I'm Christian now!"

meaning of the word theory? Of course it is a theory, a scientific theory. Please look up the word so you can understand the differance between a scientific theory and a belief. Arguing on that just makes the argument look stupid. Base your argument on facts not ignorance, It does not help the cause.

We rented Syriana (have to admit, it is hard to follow if you don't pay very close attention) and my teen son asked why the woman dressed all in black and covered herself and just said it was a stupid movie thing that a writer made up and lost interest in the movie after that.

What are some movies that are not so hard to follow that show different cultures that a young teen can at least follow to realize we exist on a mere postage stamp corner of a world?
