Re: How does one feel if one has inner peace?
This can only happen to Saints. We are all ordinary people. We always break laws. Have you always kept the speed limits? Following all the rules and regulation cannot give you inner peace. For you , inner peace will be absence of Guilt. Is this the true peace?

Re: Really needs work
I cannot agree more on your remarks. Awake, the mouth piece of Watchtower Organization quotes the Bible. But, gives a totally wrong interpretation. Not a single Biblical scholar has approved the watchtower publications. Therefore, there cannot be any room for further discussion here. Inner peace is not absence of conflict. It is not a product of absolute obedience to Moral conduct. This as human beings will certainly lead to Guilt, anger and Depression. Absolute peace is beyond all these.

Re: Watson - blind faith will do
Faith = excuses for the weak and the troubled.
Can you go back to your childhood and recollect your memories? When you were a Child, you were afraid. Were you not? I remember my youngest brother who was 7. He came home late. It was too dark. Something happened and he was scared. He had severe fever. Why am I writing this? Because, my brother was sick. He was weak. He depened either on me or my father for his strength and courage. Life also poses severe problems and situations for us. This is when we need some one like Father. In this istuation, it is God whethere you believe Him or not. A child has blind faith in his or her father. Before God, we are also like children.
