It is painful to watch a loved one suffer and die. We naturally grieve such a loss.

It is comforting to know, however, that our Creator, understands our grief. More than that, he longs to use his almighty power to restore life to the dead. Notice the hope conveyed in the words of Job, recorded at Job 14:14-15,says
If a man dies, can he live again?
I will wait all the days of my compulsory service
Until my relief comes.
15 You will call, and I will answer you.
You will long for the work of your hands.

Good life, I am intrigued.

I have posted on many of your threads, frankly they are all identical, we're doomed, you're not, you are wonderful, we are awful blah blah, you know the drill.

I take a far more adversarial position because you annoy me so much with your sniff condescension, and you usually ignore me.

Naomi argues far more rationally, and consistently pokes huge holes in your argument, yet it is she you are hostile with, and have refused to debate with any further.

I sense that you can ignore me because you believe arguing with me is beneath you, but naomi has clearly got under your skin, and hit you where it hurts, in your underlying uncomfortable doubt, that she may be right, and you are in fact wrong.

Your response is to walk away from her, not argue your position.

Does she frighten you perhaps?
//Today, our high-tech world is self-centered//
Was it different before tech then? According to to JW teachings man has always been self centered.


//Why have so many become selfish, cruel, unfeeling, and self-centered? Is it not because the Golden Rule, though still widely known, is being brushed aside as unrealistic//
The Golden Rule has been around for much longer that the Gospels or Jesus (Confucious for example)

//And judging by the way things are going, people will only become more more self-centered//
Not in my experience pal.
The more adversity we face as a species, the more we cling together.
A noteable absentee from this thread is Theland. Which makes me think that goodlife and Theland are one and the same. Because it's all about happy clapping!
//A noteable absentee from this thread is Theland. Which makes me think that goodlife and Theland are one and the same//
Theland and goodlife have diametrically opposed theologies.
(both from the same religious tome)
Go figure,,,
I can’t argue from a bible perspective because I’ve never read and never intend to read it - there’s far more worthy works of fiction to read as far as I’m concerned - so I cannot debunk Goodlife’s inanity from a position of authority.

I don’t even consider myself an atheist, because that suggests to me an understanding and subsequent rejection.

My non-belief is much more simple and simply boils down to....it’s absurd to believe in a god and an afterlife.

People can believe what the hell they like, but I really don’t like it being preached as though it is fact. Because it most certainly is not.
10CS, Theland and Goodlife are not one and the same. Theland's a bit of a happy clappy, but Jehovah's Witnesses like Goodlife don't generally do happy anything much. It appears their ambition in life is to die.
Naomi - // 10CS, Theland and Goodlife are not one and the same. //

They are not one and the same, but they are linked by that dreadful combination of hand-wringing and smugness that all overly devout Christians have when talking to anyone less devout than them - which would be everyone else on the planet.
^Having said that, Theland never seems to be all that happy either. Maybe he's just a clappy rather than a happy clappy.
Theland is not well, that's probably why he's not around at the moment.
He flounced, LB.
Oh, I didn't know. Was that your fault LOL;-))
I think he just got tired of being totally right, and surrounded by a group of people who were (obviously!) totally wrong.
Haha! Probably - well I suppose he'd have made it my fault. Who'd a guessed? :o)

I expect he'll be back when he's managed to get over it - whatever 'it' might have been.
^That to LB.
Yes I think you're right, he'll be back. I feel AB is quite important to him.
Perhaps. His choice.

Bedtime for me. Night LB. x
Night Naomi. Be going myself soon. x
He didn't flounce, he said (26th May) he was signing out and would be back some time in the future.
Hmmm …. a dramatically sniffy flounce - with a hastily added fail safe.
A bit disrespectful that, Naomi.
Why?
