Mike doesn't want you to forget that Psalms wasn't written to you. He doesn't want you to forget that if it doesn't fit, you can just cross it out.

"Kindly let me help you or you'll drown," said the monkey, putting the fish safely up a tree.

Reason is the sugar in the gas tank of beleeef.

Evidence is sand in the machinery of beleeef.

I don't know if this is a secret, but this little clip is everything. These children have not yet been indoctrinated and conditioned to beleeeve. Oh, how clearly they see! Either one can see what is going on here or one cannot. The Truth, the secret, here cannot be taught. It cannot be learned. It is beyond beleeef. Mark 10:14 Matt 18:1-6 Matt 19:14 Matt 11:25 Luke 10:21 Luke 18:17 John 3:3

From the article: “But Muslim fundamentalists regard the Koran—every word of it—as God’s own language, and they have violently attacked freethinking scholars as heretics. So Muslim intellectuals have been intimidated, and Islam has often been transmitted by narrow-minded extremists,” Kristof said. Sounds familiar. —- ”Virgin” was mistranslated in the Bible, too. It’s no secret that the Abrahamic religions are preoccupied with sex and virginity. Even pseudo-Christian cults, like the one founded by victor paul wierwille, have profoundly twisted issues with sex.

Mike, Twinky moved your topic to Doctrinal. Please respect her request to continue your discussion there.

This is not a secret. Reminds me of a topic we were discussing earlier this week.

Well, the claim that "the Bible is the revealed word and will of God " is not a secret. A secret isn't merely information unknown, it's information intentionally concealed. Billions of Christians have proclaimed this idea to whomever would listen (or could be cornered) over the centuries. Hardly a secret. Whether or not one beleeeves the Bible to be the revealed word and will of God has no bearing whatsoever on this idea being a secret. Victor paul wierwille's regurgitation of this traditional theological premise contradicts what he "wrote" in PFAL. "No Bible translation nor version of the Bible is the word... the Bible is not the word..." (paraphrasing from page something something). Someone, please correct me if I got this wrong. ----- If there is a great secret, Love has something to do with it, I suspect. But I wouldn't venture to claim to know the greatest secret in the world today. If I did assert such a claim, I would advise you NOT to beleeeve me.

Welcome, Logic. Excellent first post connecting the dots. What was your parents’ response to these low grades in writing? Just curious. I suspect their response is the same as any fully conditioned follower. I praised my seventh grader earlier this year for his writing skills. He confessed he hated writing. I explained that good writing compels us to think clearly, to organize our thoughts, as you described above. His grades aren’t very good for several reasons. One is the contempt for education spewed by his mother and her vpw-worshipping family. Your story is encouraging. Thank you. ——- Does anyone have a digital copy of this “style guide” they could send me?

She didn't consider very carefully. She beleeeved the first seductive asserted claim she heard, as did so many who beleeeved victor paul wierwille. To my point. She should have. What advantage don't we have? Again, to my point. The AC is replete with errors and deception and bullshonta. Those "keys" have been throughly refuted and debunked right here in these pages. Is that what God expects? God, who is spirit, expects us to accumulate carnal, sensory knowledge? Then God should expect us to easily know the stupidity of four crucified - anyone who can read effectually by one of those senses knows the stupidity of that asserted claim. is that what you were taught? You would have been taught better to reject any "management" claiming spiritual authority. Is that what you were taught? So? The Way Corps is a tool of the cult founded by victor paul wierwille. The cult is The Way International, Inc. The Way Corps is a spiritually wicked offspring of a spiritually wicked carnal man born of a woman, victor paul wierwille.

Bravo! This reminds me only to believe something until there is no good reason to continue believing. It goes to why I don't believe in belief. Or, spelled with literal accuracy according to usage, beleeef. Curiosity, a seemingly rare and beautiful thing. Does one have freedom to be curious? Freedom to inquire? Freedom to question? Freedom to explore and follow the evidence wherever it leads? Freedom to find out? Are these not the freedoms required for learning? Or must one hold questions in abeyance?

Mmmph

Mmmmph (I presume ChasUFarley is being snarky?)

I think they are gone, Twinky. Too bad - I am still contemplating that topic.

Mmmph

Apparently, Loy was unwilling to go beyond what he was taught by victor paul wierwille. Loy didn't know how (H-O-W) to lead effectually, because leadership motivates action by example, not by position; victor paul wierwille taught the opposite. Ironically, victor paul wierwille's devilish example emboldened Loy to be a failed leader and a miserable person in relation to others. As all English Bible translations go back to Tyndale, all abject wickedness in TWI 1, 2, 3, 4... goes back to victor paul wierwille.

1. Kindness 2. Shared vulnerability 3. Understanding and empathy I can accept that a good relationship REQUIRES these three -- at least these three. Thanks, Rocky.

Huh? WITAF is this supposed to mean? Who "taught" you this nonsense? Victor Paul Wierwille, founder of The Way International, Inc.? Is this in the collaterals? The AC? No.
