I don't usually meddle around with stuff like this , I mean whats the point everyone has their own beliefs and we don't need some sales pitch or something to open a BIG can of worms but here is an interesting paragraph written by an international religion , whom I am surprised would sponsor such a thought or ideology . I suppose if you know your stuff you would / could likely guess who they are . enough with setting the stage and here it is , the sub-regard is ...What fruit does false religion yeild ?

SPREADS FALSE DOCTRINE :

Most religions teach that the soul or spirit is some invisible part of a human that survives the death of the physical body . By means of this teaching , many of these religions exploit their members , charging money to pray for departed souls . However , the bible teaches a different doctrine , "the soul that is sinning -it itself will die ." (Ezekiel 18:4) " The living are conscious they will die:but as for the dead , they are conscious of nothing at all (Ecclesiates 9:5 Jesus taught that the dead will be resurrected - an unnecessary action if humans had an immortal soul (John 11:11-25) Does your religion teach that the soul does not die ?

I know I'm supposed to wait for the comments but to me it kind of sounds a bit like a compost commentary (ashes to ashes dust to dust ) ...and since it doesn't really touch on the issue of resurrection I just leave it at that ....

   

What exactly is "false religion"?

   

Good point . This is what they titled the subject (The End of False Religion is Near ) although the paragraph really plays on the point of what are we striving to succeed in the beyond death theories of the world and ourselves , yet they don't carry on into other areas , other to say we are right and the rest of you are wrong .

They touch on other subjects such as False Religion -ie Meddles in war and Politics and Tolerates Immoral Sex and then dives right into Revelations .I found it interesting that these people of all would bend toward what many already believe .

I'll write what they describe as false religion give me a few minutes ...I type with 2 fingers LOL

   

What is False Religion ? (as described by the JW)

Are you distressed about crimes commited in the name of religion ? Do the warfare , terrorism , and corruption perpetrated by those who claim to serve God offend your sense of justice ? Why does religion seem to be at the root of so many problems ?

The fault lies , not with all religion , but with false religion. A widely respected religious figure , Jesus Christ , indicated that false religion produces bad works , just as a "rotten tree produces worthless fruit ." ( Matthew 7:15-17 ) What fruit does false religion yeild ?

They also mention that the future of the Atheist looks bleak . I just found the one paragraph brings up a challenge within ones own vanity or hopelessness as toward life after death ...more or less the rest I pretty much ignored .

I'm under the impression they changed their mind about life after death and is why I posted .

   

Hmmm....couldn't make head or tail of it but religion is usually a major turn-off for me.....seemed like another posting of an evangelical nature....
