I agree that the trinity is a crock. So is your view of the Holy spirit.

As to your last very definitive statement, how do you know this is a fact other than from hear say and Bible say? All hear say.
Are you willing to gamble your soul on hear say alone?

Further, when did you judge Bible God's character to know He was the one?

Not silly. Delusional.

I asked what you thought. You might have tried to answer but I note that that is your style. Evade.

If for today, you might note that the secular legal system in place is much more moral than the Bible's. We do not stone our children or let them die when they need blood.

If for today, show where it talks of abortion, cloning and stem cell research.

What do you believe to be the Holy spirit?

I believe the Bible to be God's word. As long as I believe in God's word and live accordingly to what the Bible teaches, I believe I will be acceptable to God.

I've believed for years that God is the Almighty. My studies with the witnesses has strengthened my belief.

I answered, you just didn't like my answer. I believe the Bible, I do not believe in dragons.

At that time, God dealt directly with his people. If they broke his laws they were punished. Each crime had a proper punishment.

The Bible tells us to abstain from blood. With the Jehovah's Witnesses involvement in the medical field, there has been much progress made in finding alternatives to blood transfusions. We love our children but we do believe in doing God's will.

Abortion is taking a human life. Cloning is wrong because only God creates beings. I don't know enough about stem cell research to make a comment about it yet.

Parrots can repeat what they hear. And yes, I believe Satan was powerful enough to use a serpent to speak for him. It is from the word of God and God can not lie.

So you believe in talking snakes and talking donkeys...but you don't believe in dragons. Why is that?

So there IS something that your god can't do after all?
Go look at the scripture I just posted.
