451: The Brain and Mental illness: Modern Psychiatry is neo-Phrenology
... The humour of the male and female brain is actually founded in phrenology. Modern psychiatry is attempting to isolate regions of the brain, like the temporal lobe, that are responsible for religious experience and belief in God. This of course has been scientifically proven false, since most thoughts and feelings activate the neurons in many different parts of the brain at the same time. Click to View Click to View Fit for a carnival attraction rather than real science, phrenology has made a recent comeback with diagnostic brain imagery like fMRI.

452: Jehovah's Witness New Convert website
If Witnesses have the truth and nothing to fear from self-investigation, why are they officially forbidden from reading any materials that cross-examine their doctrines?

A suicidal mother, with the full consent, knowledge and help of other Jw's, kidnaps her kids from their father. His greatest sin was that he smoked cigarettes but the real reason is because he said one time to his wife, "my kids are forbidden to go to the Kingdom Hall." A week later they vanished!

Counseling from a minister, a pastor, a Christian is a waste of time. If you want results, see a psychologist or psychiatrist! What a sad day this is.

464: Methuselah's begetting Age of Lamech was 187 not 167 years
Scholars predisposed towards the MT have overblown the significance of this variant, and have merely created a distraction from the complex text-critical issues surrounding the MT, LXX, and SP of Genesis 5 and 11, and the associated external historical evidence. As such, the argument that the LXX's primeval chronology should be dismissed from serious consideration because of the 167 begetting age variant for Methuselah should be abandoned by biblical scholars and young-earth creationists, post haste. While examining the date of Methuselah's death in the LXX, we have necessarily introduced several issues closely connected to ascertaining the original figures given to Moses in Genesis 5 and 11. Since everyone agrees that the chronology in Genesis 5 and 11 was either inflated or deflated intentionally, someone in antiquity must necessarily be accused of altering many of the begetting ages by 100 years each (and by 50 in Nahor's case).

465: Solomon's network of military border fortresses in the Negev
Solomon is clearly the best choice from a historical, Biblical and archeological point of view. It is clear that Pharaoh Shishak destroyed the fortresses in 924 BC. We even have his account etched into the stone at Temple of Amon in Karnak. (see below) Since we know that the fortresses had a short occupation life, this fits perfectly with Solomon as the builder just 26 years earlier. The opinion on the builder and dates of these fortresses varies depending on the bias of the archeologist and fall into two categories: Those who believe the Bible and those who do not. Basically, those archeologists who believe the Bible attribute these 50 fortresses to Solomon in 950 BC. Those archeologists who say Solomon and David are mostly a myth, will attribute dates before or after David/Solomon, but fight hard to avoid any suggestion that confirms the historicity of David/Solomon as revealed in the Bible.

Many Christians today have experienced the blessings that can come only to one who has dedicated a season to fasting and prayer to Jehovah. 2. Biblical examples of fasting indicate that it was only once commanded as a regular ritual, on the day of Atonement (Lev. 23:27) but it was practiced by God's people both individually and in groups. Sometimes it was commanded by leaders, sometimes it was voluntary. God's people fasted for many purposes; David, to humble his soul, to entreat God in behalf of his sick son, for his enemies and in mourning for the death of Saul and his sons. In times of great crisis, the children of God usually turned to their Father, confessing their sins, praying and fasting, entreating his favor; and the Scriptures indicate that God usually blessed them. In one case, that of the Nenevites, he even repented and changed his plans for destroying them. 3.

475: Have Crucified Jesus today by your actions?
The skeleton was of a man named Yehohanan son of Chaggol, who had been crucified between the age of 24 and 28. Mr. Tzaferis wrote an article in the Jan/Feb. 1985 issue of the secular magazine Biblical Archaeology Review (BAR), and here are some of his comments regarding crucifixion in Jesus' time: At the end of the first century B.C., the Romans adopted crucifixion as an official punishment for non-Romans for certain limited transgressions.

... Was it from this fortress that he set out against the Edomites? Or was the fortress built during the reign of Amaziah's son Uzziah (769-733 BCE; 2 Kgs 15:1), the powerful and active king who "built Elot and restored it to Judah" (2 Chr 26:2; 2 Kgs 14:22;), fortified the borders of his kingdom "and built towers in the wilderness" (2 Chr 26:10), and, like his father before him, strengthened his army in order to prevail over his enemies (2 Chr 26:13)? Although there is a strong possibility, based on archaeological, historical, and biblical considerations, that Jehoshaphat was the builder of the Stratum 5 fortress, there are, nevertheless, archaeological remains dating to Uzziah, and a case may be made to support his having engineered at least part of the construction of this fortress."

477: Watchtower Deceptions: Confusing Modalism as if it were trinity ...
When a born again Christian points to Scriptures that demonstrate Jesus is God, THEY ARE NOT TRYING TO PROVE THAT JESUS IS GOD THE FATHER. Orthodox Trinitarians do not believe Jesus and the Father are the same Person though the WT repeatedly teaches its followers this is the case.

479: The Meaning of the Mind, Thomas Szasz, 1996 AD
because human beings have a penchant for attributing their evil impulses to Others; and because, as I noted, psychiatrists stand ready to relieve people of responsibility for their behavior-including the responsibility to verify, for themselves, whether others are telling the truth or not." (The Meaning of the Mind, Thomas Szasz, 1996 AD, p 65) "Because nouns such as "bug" or "hug" name real objects or events, we understand that "bugging" a person means annoying him, and that hugging him means giving him a hug; and because the noun "mind" names a fictitious object, we misunderstand "minding" as using our "mind." But we have no minds. Instead, we, qua living persons, mind. How and what we mind is who we are. Minding is quintessentially our own business."

... Presumably each of these completely different uses of the same word go back to the same parent and have the same etymology. But complete confusion may result from misunderstanding how the speaker meant the word to be used. Bear in mind that inerrancy involves acceptance of and belief in whatever the biblical author meant by the words he used. If he meant what he said in a literal way, it is wrong to take it figuratively; but if he meant what he said in a figurative way, it is wrong to take it literally. So we must engage in careful exegesis in order to find out what he meant in the light of contemporary conditions and usage. That takes hard work. Intuition or snap judgment may catch one up in a web of fallacy and subjective bias. This often results in heresy that hinders the cause of the Lord one professes to serve. In the case of parallel passages, the only method that can be justified is harmonization. That is to say, all the testimonies of the various witnesses are to be taken as ... ...

When people get slain it is due to the direct ministry of another person, not a sovereign act of God, as we see in 2 Chronicles 5:11-14. Invariably, charismatic people fall down when hands are laid on them. There are no examples of people falling down when hands were laid on them in the Bible which is the exact model which is to be compared. In Chronicles we read of the dedication of Solomons temple.

Please observe that Stevenson makes it clear most of the cases of 'spontaneous recall' may be explained through cryptomnesia (although he points out that this does not necessarily explain all of the evidence such as birthmarks appearing on a new-born child and corresponding to the same birth marks of deceased family member). Along with the possibility of cryptomnesia, Stevenson lists the possible explanations of E.S.P. (extra-sensory perception), genetic memory, and demonic possession as alternative explanations of persons who experience spontaneous recall of 'past memories.' Some suggest that the Bible teaches John the Baptist was the reincarnation of Elijah, but that obviously is not the case for Elijah the Prophet never died (cf. II Kings 2), and John the Baptist was the Prophet Elijah in the sense that he came in the 'spirit and power' of Elijah (Luke 1:17).
