isn't "End of the world" in the Bible? maybe I'm mistaken, but I thought JWs believe in the "truth" of the Bible, so how can there be "Paradise Earth" if there will be the "End of the World"?

and by the way, is there a "Paradise Earth" mentioned in the Bible?

Are we prepared for the Supreme Soul to manifest itself on earth amongst us, as an avataar/prophet yet again so as to guide us to yet another higher level of spirituality? Are we prepared as humans, spiritually to know the importance of God itself being amongst us as a manifestation??

Please provide your interpretation of any passages you cite, in the context of biological evolution.

Jesus said; that the world will come to despise you, or his followers; maybe this prophecy has become self fulfilling? Preaching against sin, while living in sin could be understood as hypocrisy to one who believes this authority does not come from God. Telling others that they are sinful according to God, when they don't think they are... while may seem the only way to spread “the word” does comes off as judgmental.

In sincerity; Jesus said to tell the world about him; but that was 2,000 years ago right; at least in America, and other modernized countries, perhaps this goal has been accomplished?

This is not meant to provoke anyone; I would just like to know your thoughts?

Christians look bad deliberately? I mean could they be people who hate Christians, so they claim to be one, to create a bad image of Christians? Is it possible?

All the scientific evidence points towards Christianity being the one true religion. There is NO excuse for not being a Christian. If you are a good person, but happen to believe in the wrong version of God, you deserve to burn for all eternity.

God loves you and doesn't want you to go to Hell, but if you REFUSE to belive in the correct VERSION of God with NO scientific evidence, God is FORCED to allow you to go to Hell for all eternity. When God created you, He knew for A FACT you would die without being a Christian even though you were a good person and thus burn in HELL for all eternity, yet he chose to create you anyways.

It may appear that it is better to never have existed than to be created and be tortured FOREVER with NO END EVER IN SIGHT, but God loves you and even though he knows you won't convert to Christianity, he HAS TO create you because of free will.

Do you agree?

...or do they just reverse every argument against them and present it as being original?

The latest I've seen is something about atheism being created by man. There are plenty of others like saying it takes faith to believe in scientific study blah blah.

For the atheists: what is your favorite plagiarized argument like this?

I've noticed a lot of people who don't agree with the theory of evolution (and a number who do) don't seem to have a basic grasp of what biological evolution actually is.

In a few sentences, can you summarize the essential basic ideas behind the theory of evolution?

since JWs forbid blood transfusion, is it reasonable to let the person die even if he/she has 99% chance to live if he/she only recieves blood transfusion?

which one is important, blood or the life of a human being?

being born, put a face to Christianity. Then another religion was born just to be against Jesus and fight Christians. Why can't all people see God as peaceful?

I was at a dinner tonight with my grandpa who used to work with a lot of the general authorities. It was amazing. I sat at the same table and Elder Wirthlin and Bishop Mcmullin and sat right next to President Hinckley who was at a different table. Anyways, after being there tonight and hearing him speak, there is no doubt in my mind that he is a prophet of God.

Has anyone else ever met him? What did you think?

For athiests, Mankind had in most of his history, been religious, has he been ignorant for so long, even at times of scientific knowledge, in the sumerian civilization and other advanced civilizations including, Islamic civilization that brought the renaissance to Europe after the fall of Muslim Spain.

To Believers in any religion, where have athiests gone wrong, are they mistaken for their theories of evolutions, are they wrong not to believe in God, will they be less moral without God?

Ask yourself and share your thoughts with me, You will enlighten both me and everyone else who may read your answer

Thank You
