I never stated that you personally hated Jesus. I said the world back then hated him, Gods own chosen hated him, they sent him to his death. Jesus told them off at Matt 23, and in verse 38-39 clearly shows they are cut off of being Gods chosen unless they do verse 39. They have outright refused for over 1950 years.
When the world finds out the JW,s are 100% correct-- all will see the hatred just like occurred back then. Its the reason Armageddon hits, because the world raises up against Jesus' religion and then him.
But since Jesus is head of the congregation and you said for his to mind their own business, is the same as saying it to him--Whatever you do to these the least of my brothers, you do to me.You obviously dislike what is his.
Well you're certainly making great progress. You're almost up to 1% of the population!
Woo is just that...woo. I'm sure Phetaroi has explained it to you more than once. I say it too. Remember, I said it to you woo woo! But the bolded is kinda funny.
All she has to is look up the definition in her favorite M-W online dictionary.
You're being dishonest again. You seem to have trouble with that commandment. Nothing about hate in either of those posts.
John 7:7--the world hated Jesus because he bore witness to their wicked works)-Few listen to him then and now. Gods own chosen religious leaders sent him to his death because of hate. It says a few x they sought to kill him. They were apotocised.

Phet says a lot. I never pay any attention to it. The heat and humidity draws ants and they crawl all over my kitchen counter. I pay more attention to them than to his to posts, before i zap them with bug spray.
I don't think it's so much a matter of religion doing good as it is of individuals within religions doing good because they have taken the teachings to heart.
Regardless of what religion they claim, those who don't take the teachings to heart do little good, and often more harm than good.
In terms of what most of us would call doing good, there is a great deal of overlap in the core teachings of most religions.
Nonbelievers can certainly do good as well, but I think religion provides a framework that stimulates and deepens the impulse to do good if taken to heart.
Bolded, correct. People can do good regardless of religion. It is the inspiration that pours out into art and poetry and texts and worship that delight and opens our hearts and minds to the beauty and bliss of the divine that comes out of religion is the good that religion does. It is not clear where spiritualism ends and people begin in this outpouring.
