Ok guys i need help. For all those atheists or agnostics or maybe christian science people--what are some great sites to explore our existence, the universe, bible history and archaeology, pretty much all one needs to make a decision on their beliefs. Lets show the lurking JWs that we can collaborate on something, and help a confused fading JW (me) explor his options and actually RESEARCH. Thanks guys

Read Bart Erhman's Misquoting Jesus. Fantastic book on the New Testament. Bart believes Jesus existed. It's just about the way the bible was written.

This is interesting. http://dwindlinginunbelief.blogspot.com/2010/04/drunk-with-blood-gods-killings-in-bible.html

This is great too. http://jeffro77.wordpress.com/response-to-607-website/

The important fact is the business documents. Thousands of them. All showing the dates that kings reigned. One would have to believe in a epic hoax that began thousands of years ago with the intent to trick us today for 607 to be true. If 607 falls, then all of importance for JWs falls.

Fred Franz the WT president proves there was not a GB in the first century. Full talk he gave. Well worth a listen.

In my time of confusion just after leaving one of the first things I did is watch a number of debate videos on religion. I found the Hitchens videos most compelling, the logic and points he made clarified things for me a great deal. They are also very entertaining to watch too. Here is a few (they are long, skip boring introductions...), and there are many more like it on youtube. I'd also recommend reading the book by Carl Sagan "The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark", everything by Hitchins, and Dawkins such as "God Is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything", and the "The God Delusion".
