so i was fooled by the witnesses.
what can i learn from that?
not to accept things at face value but to seek out opinion and different view points.. hence my question " do you believe man landed on the moon?.
I think your going about this wrong,
You are asking the opinions of others presumably to measure them in forming your opinion,
Instead I suggest you go in the internet and Google "how to critical thinking"
Do your own research,
Look at the verifiable evidence
Listen to both sides of the argument
Form a conclusion that was reached rationally,

there are many on this site that do not believe that jehovah truly exists; that he is not a real being.
but, he is as real as next breath you draw into your nostrils.. some of you say that there is no evidence that he exists.
yet, none of you can prove that he does not exits.. cofty, (you come to mind), i appreciate that you have stated, without reservation, that you do not believe that god exists.. yet, you cannot prove it.. hope in jehovah..
Scripture asks "who is greater the Potter or the clay?"
You vehemently argue that life on Earth had an intelligent designer,
What is the origin of the "designer" who by the above scripture is greater than His creation,
By your own reasoning there is compelling evidence that Someone in fact made God!

I haven't read through this thread but I'm wondering what a loyal servant of Jehovah in doing on this site,
Isn't that showing disloyalty and disbedience to Jehovah?
I little hypocritical wouldn't you say?

The onus of proof is with the the one making the claim, not the one questioning it,
Look up Bertrand Russell's Celestial Teapot, if you want, not everyone likes logic :)
in the last couple of months, i have been practising my stand up.
so far these are my best jokes:.
not celebrating birthdays and christmas has saved me so much money.
A childhood of learning how to spew out absolute nonsense to strangers
has led to me to a highly successful political career, you'd be surprised to
learn how many now in office used to be Witnesses!
i've been using my photoshop skills for good rather than evil.. and it also helps relieve the shunning frustration.. .

Great stuff,
I have a few,
JC "I wanted to go out in the ministry but they told me I needed a haircut!!"
well my wife is off to a one day convention and will doubtless return home cranky and tired.

Your own opinion
Hey alostpuppydog,
The above words are great blasphemy among the Jehovah's Witnesses,
You must repent!

recently at work they conducted an mbti test for me.
for those who don't know, the mbti test is a personality test used by organizational psychologists in companies and organizations.
it is supposed to describe the best way you communicate, the best way of giving and receiving feedback, and for managers that test is supposed to explain to them the best way to manage their employees (i'm over simplifying, i know).. my profile came up as some kind of introvert (and when i was told that i said "what?
I share some of these thought /speech patterns,
Apparently this can also be caused by feelings of abandonment,
I think that our experiences can give us quite a cynical outlook,
I often thought about a loving God destroying a naked bloated Biafran kid,
What I was thinking is what is this person going to feel about Jehovah's gracious goodness and be moved to praise his name,
Still we try to think and make sense about everything,
Also, maybe the brothers more so, we just have to shut up and bite our tongues so much I think it leads to a lot of sarcasm etc
Thank you for your interesting post,

______silly obsessionsome groups of people in the world believe flying saucers and space aliens are secretly visiting our planet intervening in man’s affairs.
jehovah’s witnesses believe something very similar!
"before leaving the earth, jesus christ promised to return.".
