If you don't have to fight and can combat the evil peacefully, do so.When there is 0 other option, then just war occurs.
No, you always have the option to not fight.
JW are peaceful in a literal sense of violence maybe.
Well, duh, thats the topic.
They are not peaceful in their way of spreading or forcing children to stay in the faith
As long as they dont participate in a war, the only conclusion thats left is that they participate in peace. Like Jesus 🥰🥰

Catholics have over 1000 years of war now.
JW have 0 years of war.

Lets see what Jesus really said about violence:
"I tell you, do not resist an evil person."
Hmm...
So who now follows this better, JW who dont resist, or Catholics who do? Did Jesus even resist people who came to torture and kill him?
I guess JW win.

All should fight the urge but marriage and being parents is the reason God gave us the urges.
So God gave us gay urges? Why?

The Nazis found Jehovah's Witnesses' refusal to swear allegiance to the Nazi regime or to participate in military combat a threat to the Nazi state. On 1 April 1935 the Nazis made it illegal to be a Jehovah's Witness and more than 8,000 people were sent to prisons or concentration camps.

They were forced against their will by high ranking Protestants in the Nazi military and police force
Number of JW that fought for Hitler is 0 there. JW couldnt be forced.

You mean, parts where Jesus participates in a war? Sure, link me that.

Between 1939 and 1945 more than 17,000 Catholic German priests and seminarians were conscripted into Hitler's Wehrmacht. Men who had devoted their lives to God found themselves advancing the cause of an abhorrent regime.

Wrong. Protestants did. So much so that Hitler converted out of Catholicism and into a 'Church of Germany' vague protestantism in order to win votes.
Why didnt then Catholics in nazi Germany opposite Hitler instead of being members of his military?

Is being peaceful in the direct face of evil good?
Jesus did that, so my answer is yes.

A census in May 1939, six years into the Nazi era and a year following the annexations of Austria and Czechoslovakia into Germany, indicates that 54% of the population considered itself Protestant, 41% considered itself Catholic, 3.5% self-identified as Gottgläubig
So Catholics and Protestant supported Hitler. Catholic Church did fight many wars historically too. Only now when it has no power, it pretends to be peaceful. But catholics still fight in wars around the world.
Same cannot ever be said for Jehovah's Witnesses. They are more similar to Jesus. Jesus didnt fight in any war.

Catholic church allows tobacco smoking but anything in excess can harm you.
Smoking is harmful, yes.
Consider what you are really saying,
Facts?
is knocking on doors, shoving leaflets in boxes and pressuring and gaslighting peoppe to convert whike denying blood transfusions to their own children what you call peaceful?
None of those are participation in wars, yes.
Caths fight evil, JW fight imaginary ghosts.
So JW dont fight, thus are more peaceful.
Created:
They also hate smokers.
Created:
I think Jehovah's witnesses are obviously more peaceful than Catholics. Catholics do participate in wars a lot. Jehovah's witnesses dont participate in wars. Their teachings forbid it.
As described in their book, the goal of religion is to bring peace. Their religion brings peace by banning war for their members. This is much better for achieving peace now.

But constantly switching religions may jeopardize the authenticity of my will and ability to commit
Well, the other option is to then study all religions first and be atheist or current religion until you find one true religion. But there are many religions out there now. Might take way too long time. As for Christians, I really prefer Jehovah's witnesses.

@Sir.Lancelot
I would. The motivation is certainly compelling.My main obstacle however isn’t I haven’t devoted enough time to studying the other religions.
So you can be Christian and then also study other religions and change religion if other is better. Kinda like how I was Christian until Satan took me.

It's even said that Napoleon had an experience inside the pyramid, very likely a communication with an entity.
Entity or alien then? Because I can imagine pyramids being used to communicate with spirits too. Human could easily confuse spirit for alien there. The Egyptian mythology did consider pyramids as main ways to reach the other world. But it was spiritual world, world of Gods and stars. I guess the last would include aliens possibly too.

I am asking because its kinda common belief. Earth has energy everywhere, and certain shapes collect it better than others.
"Pyramid power is the belief that the pyramids of ancient Egypt and objects of similar shape can confer a variety of benefits. Among these supposed properties are the ability to preserve foods, sharpen or maintain the sharpness of razor blades, improve health, function "as a thought-form incubator", trigger sexual urges, and cause other effects. Such unverified conjectures regarding pyramids are collectively known as pyramidology."

Do you believe that Egyptian pyramids are actually energy sources?
I think they are. Otherwise, I cant explain why they built them.

Bible, to put it simply, says that you should have sex only in marriage. How great of a sin is to have sex outside marriage is a different topic completely. But it is considered sin, obviously.

New Testament:
"But since sexual immorality is occurring, each man should have sexual relations with his own wife, and each woman with her own husband."
Also, New Testament literally says that anyone who feels lust should marry. Its strongly implied there.

Also, adultery isnt sex outside marriage. Adultery is when person who is married cheats. Entirely different thing there.

Bible deuteronomy 22:28-29
"If a man happens to meet a virgin who is not pledged to be married and rapes her and they are discovered, 29 he shall pay her father fifty shekels of silver. He must marry the young woman, for he has violated her. He can never divorce her as long as he lives."

Yes. Its seriously very wrong. You should never ever do that. Every time you kiss a boy, God kills a puppy.

We all believe in God here. Even atheists worship things. We just believe in different Gods. Kinda like how everyone likes some different things. Although I would never want to be atheist. Religion has magical effects on person's brain which was proved by science.

The brain is never a finish product. Ain't that a hoot?
The brain can change as long as person lives. There are ways to change the brain's structure completely. But its usually through learning and new experience.

It tends to come down to health. Lust in women works in a way that does mean they can lust old men sometimes
There are strange young men who lust after 70 year old women. But that is disgusting. Most normal men want 20 year old women. Same works with women. Women generally dont want old men unless its for money or they cant get anything better right now. Really, give a choice between 20 year old and 60 year old, and who would choose a 60 year old? Thats how it works.

Sorry about that happening.

I prefer religion, and some alcohol. But I agree about smoking, drugs... Its not any good way to get anywhere. Drugs just destroy the brain.

@Dr.Franklin
Ebuc isnt actually atheist. I dont buy it. He believes Universe is God on its own. His profile photo is 11 pointed star, or was 12 pointed star before he cut out 1 point. Both of these are actually symbols of Gods. Especially when eye is drawn in middle there.

Golden Rule, precept in the Gospel of Matthew (7:12): “In everything, do to others what you would have them do to you. . . .” This rule of conduct is a summary of the Christian's duty to his neighbour and states a fundamental ethical principle.
Yes, but Christians have perverted Christianity. They imagine God as a psychopathic dictator who tortures anyone who disobeys him. Really, they learned basically nothing from Jesus's actions.

You seem to be very confused about the definition of love.
"Do as I say or I will hurt you" isnt exactly a definition of love.
Its more like something what you would hear from a rapist.
So whats the difference between your God and a rapist?

I dont think people like hearing me complain about my childhood now. In fact, Barney made an entire page on trolls who base their trolling on complaining so much that everyone else feels really bad. Thats a hint.

I think I am a mix of everything now. Not too good, not too bad.

Umm why would I repeat it? Thats kinda not necessary.

I am just a vessel of Satan and Great Demon Lords. However, I dont usually read Hitler's works now. I only read it a bit before. Its not part of my daily activity now.

His saving, like all his love, is conditional.
