Theism is a Fact #1

by cofty in

nope sorry i got nothing.. wouldn't it be really interesting though if somewhere there was a theist who could challenge unbelievers with facts and evidence?.

@divergent - that's not Jesus it's an alien.

Theism as a multi billion dollar industry with an invisible product to sell to the masses exists - sadly.

how do you faders/inactive handle being asked to the memorial by family?

If you stop going they will stop asking, so, as outlaw said just say no.

Witnesses killed my friend today.

by WasOnceBlind in

today has been a horrible day.

what began as a day of joy finding out that one of my lifelong friends had her baby, turned into a nightmare when her brother called me to let me know she had passed away after birth.

i was in shock and didn't ask how.

This isn't just tragic it's completely unnecessary.

WT's policies kill.

Ridiculous statements in this weeks study article

by the truth is mine in

maybe it is just me but when i read this paragraph all i could do is shake my head and wonder how i used to buy into this crap and how people don't wonder what the hell the writers are thinking'.

"imagine what life would be like if god did not have love for mankind.

we merely have to look at the awful history of this world with its human rulerships under its unloving and wrathful god, satan the devil.

Oh I agree with diogen, they will set up an official criteria and vet those claiming to be annointed.

A sincere message to those from the organisation monitoring my posts....

so, i know there are some from my congregation or from bethel who monitor my posts..... maybe you're looking for something to catch me out?.

just a question: rather than trying to find fault with me, have you stopped and looked into the issues or facts about the organisation that caused me to come to a place like this forum??.

facts are there for anyone to find nowadays....one just has to be willing to pull their head out of the sand.....
