If I don't have to be a member to survive, than why do any of you bother? Also, if the Witnesses use the "imperfection" as their defense when they publish false prophesies, etc, why can't I use the "imperfection" defense if God is going to kill me at Armageddon?

I think a heater is better. That makes it easier to study coz i feel sleepy in my quilt and going to other people's rooms and sit there for heater is something even they don't like , i suppose. But the problem is my roommate won't agree. She says i feel cold because i don't wear enough layers of clothes. Come on! We're in nepal, a cold place i'm supposed to feel cold especially with no fat on me. Another reason she gives me is that she can't get out of the room then as she is not able to tolerate large temp differences and that's why she says that she can't bathe in the morning. But aaarghh she bathes at 2 am. How do i tell this to her? She's such an idiot. Now if i buy one for myself she'll get the heat too. And yes! She does sit in sunlight at 12noon that never makes that temp difference. Jesus!How do i explain it to her without making her mad which is not that difficult. Because its affecting my studies so its imp for me. Its so cold here.

I gave a list of scriptures to some friends that prove to me the bible we have today is not inerrant. I was not surprised with their answer. They tell me the original manuscripts are inerrant (how convenient that these manuscripts don't exist now), they told me you can find error in everything if you are picky. However; they claim the message is still inerrant and that most of my issues with the Bible just have to be taken on faith. Why is it that I can't get an intelligent, rational response for why I should believe the Bible?

The sun is exerting a gravitational pull on the huge mass of the earth and keeps it in its orbit . We are moving freely on the surface of the earth and we are not tied to the earth firmly.How is it that the gravity of the Sun that pulls all the planets and keeps them in orbit around itself , is not pulling us apart from the earth into itself ? The gravitaional pull of the earth on us cannot be greater than that of the Sun on the earth or on us on the earth.If the pull of the Sun is weak on us on account of the distance of the sun from us , then that weak gravity would certainly, be not able to keep the earth on its orbit. So what is it that is keeping us on the earth without being pulled away by the Sun?

If you believe in God.. fine.
If you don't believe in God, fine.
But why do religious people feel the need to preach? Why do they think they're "saving" people by telling them their beliefs are wrong, and only the believers are right?
It sounds like a cult to me, when an organization tries to convince fragile minds to follow someone else's beliefs.

I know the jehovah's witnesses say that their religion makes it a rule for them to not tattoo or pierce their bodies.

Recently some jehovah's witnesses rang my doorbell and when I answered the door there were 2 women. One of the ladies was in her mid 30's and her breasts were surgically stacked higher than Pamela Anderson in her prime. I know for a fact that the lady that I saw had surgically enhanced, unnatural breasts, because I have seen in person with clothes on and clothes off, and touched and felt enough real and fake breasts to be able to tell the difference. I also have some friends that are girls with fake breasts, and I have a friend who is a board certified plastic surgeon who has told me all the ways you can tell if a girl has surgically enhanced breasts. The jehovah's witness lady that I saw definitely paid money for some doctor to blow up her body.

A Scotsman stranded on a desert island comes across a woman who has washed up onto shore. The Scotsman helps the woman and welcomes her to the island.

Later on that day, the woman says, "I don't suppose you smoked before you were stranded on this island, did you?"


The Scotsman explains that he most certainly did smoke before becoming stranded on the island. So, the woman produces a cigarette from her bag, and they enjoy a smoke together.


A little later, the woman says, "I don't suppose you drank before you were stranded on this island, did you?"


The Scotsman explains that he most certainly did drink before becoming stranded on the island. So, the woman produces a flask from her bag, and they enjoy a drink together.


Some time later, the woman says, "So, you've been on this island for ten years without a woman, huh?"


"That's right," says the Scotsman.


The woman continue, "I don't suppose you'd like to play around?"

"Good God lady," exclaimed the Scotsman, "you have a set of golf clubs in that bag too?!?!'
