If it's a overpopulated where you live...move. even china is vastly sparse in the west. As for food.. that's a joke. Every grocery store is every country I have been in throws away expired food because there is too much on the shelves. As for sustaining farming I think the mentality of farming one crop is foolish. I have seen numerous examples of small hobby farms feeding a family of 10 more with more left over. As for farmland there is slot of room to be cleared in some countries if people want to invest in the land. 11 billion is on every single projection I have seen.

Over population
by mickbobcat inso i see some very counter intuitive videos on how there is no over population issue.
that the world will grow to about 11 billion and stop.
well that would be the first time in human history that population just stopped.

The absolute insanity that religion breeds
by LoveUniHateExams inhowever good certain religious principles may or may not be, there seems to be complete insanity that only religion breeds.. a buddhist monk in thailand has apparently chopped off his own head to give himself 'good luck' in the afterlife.. .

Bad fish yes I would hope our standards are better then Yahweh. Read Joshua for a change. Or read numbers 31 or 1 Samuel 15 and tell me how killing and raping children is just? (Yes I said rape.. read numbers 31 carefully) and while you are at it read the book of Esther and tell me why ten sons of hemen are murdered. I haven't even bothered with revelation yet and the justice in killing a third of people and wildlife because some people blaspheme god.

I agree that they SHOULD be allowed to post. Despite the triggers in the members here the fact is that most of us were once them. We need to answer their questions

Did Jesus Have A Dog?
by minimus ina preteen asked me , “did jesus have a dog”?
i thought the question was hysterical.
why wouldn’t jesus have a dog or pet cat or sheep?

Actually use a concordance and look up every verse in the bible where dogs are mentioned. Half the time they are unclean or insulting beasts or licking up the blood of cursed people. My personal favorite comment on dogs is in Proverbs 26:11 and 2 Peter. 2:22:
As a dog returns to his vomit, so a fool repeats his folly
But there is only neutral comment on dogs in Proverbs: 26:17
He that passeth by, and meddleth with strife belonging not to him, is like one that taketh a dog by the ears.

Would the world be a better place without religion?
by pistolpete ini know what you’re gonna say---------everyone has a right to believe whatever they want.. but the question above is not about everyone’s right to believe whatever.. the question is very specific------will the world be a better place----without religion.
think for a while what the world would be like without any religion.. no conflicts between islam and christianity.. no conflicts between different sects of christianity.
(example; jehovah’s witnesses vs catholics).

Yes. However since I have a religious philosophy, despite being an atheist (Daoism/Gnosticism) I have to say that every single person on this planet (and the few on the ISS :P) need to be free in their mind to explore ideas, concepts and science.

What do you think about NDE? Life after death?
by Mowgliandbalu inplease forgive if my english is a bit crooked :-) at least i understand quite well and i thank everyone here in the forum very much!
you were a big help for me within the last months.
i'm a born-in from germany, mid50, was 20 years elder, woke up a few years ago.

My answer might surprise people since I'm an outspoken atheist and naturalist on here.
If there is life after death in some way I do NOT believe it would be supernatural! There would be a perfectly natural explanation that we can't figure out yet.
I have seen very convincing stories for reincarnation and even more so in a massive way for NDEs.
If and again if.... it is true then there are two things that need to be done.
1. A double-blind trail to prove it exists. For instance and open book in a room where someone is doing a 'Flatliner' type test. The unknown book can then be read by the so-called NDE person and then they can relay that etc.
2. The most important of all going beyond point one is to establish WHY. What natural explanation is there?
If you can prove one two is a matter of research.
When it comes to NDE and things like Astral Projection like the fictional character Fox Mulder on X-Files:
"I want to believe."
But I need evidence. Don't let that stop people from doing double-blind trails.

the gaping hole in this week's weak wt study.
by waton infor pimi pimo persons: give us one text that says those aspiring to everlasting life should not partake of the bread and wine.
in the article, the whole proposition of refusing the emblems is based on the personal experience of one brother in the 1930s.!
all jws partook.

Ok here is what is happening. The GB are distancing themselves from the other anointed. See they plan to be 'raptured the the Caymans'. Once this happens the rank and file can point and the so-called anointed and say "Ha you have mental issue, you weren't raptured!"
Meanwhile the GB will live a happy life for awhile. and JWs splinter into sub-groups. I believe this is their plan.
