friends: i have a question....
by thebeliever insince leaving the jw's, with what have you replaced your belief system?
meaning, since we know there is no armageddon, heaven, hell, etc... how do you now understand the world and your place in it?.
i personally believe in evolution, but that doesn't help with the matter of spirituality.

to ex-jw's specifically: with what have you replaced your belief system..
by thebeliever inhow do you now understand the world... and your place in it?.
i personally believe in evolution... and also a "higher power"... it seems more and more people are drifting away from organized religion, but they are then left searching for meaning and purpose..... going to college/university and studying a normal curriculum, one is exposed to philosophy, the socrates and platos of history, who in many ways started widespread discussion on such topics as above.
some sort of philosophy has to be studied i believe, just so one can understand the history of man, from that point in time and how we came to christianity in the first place.. however, it is a very personal matter, as we must all find our own answers.. i believe it is natural for people to be drawn to ponderings of purpose and god, and there are many ways to seek connection to that souce.
