LT, will you go into the COS priesthood? They would be lucky to have you. JWN would be lucky to see you posting here and there. There would be a good chance you could bring back some balance, which would be very good for those who are still in and those newly coming out, lurkers or those posting currently.

Here's a live video of the bros playing acoustic and singing. Amazing. This is one of the reasons this girl isn't an atheist:

Little Toe is very happy, why pity him? He has a happy marriage with children and is educated, kind and intelligent. I miss him posting here, tremendously.

If JWs were around in the time of Jesus...

how do you think they would have treated him or responded to him?

you know, apart from shunning him due to his blasphemous facial hair..

FlyingHighNow

They wouldn't have liked him because he would have likened them to white washed graves. Too, he would have told them their windowless kingdom halls look really stupid to the general public.

Head of the House?

by cofty in

i often see comments by ex-jws that would suggest some men still view themselves as "head of the house".

sometimes comments from women appear to support the idea as well.. how many still see things this way or have you completely got over it?.

FlyingHighNow

Smiddy, comment confuses me.

Millions die in Natural disasters - God is doing nothing. Do I adopt Anthropomorphism to him?

by KateWild in

i do not think god is a'morphic.

god is not human, so hence he does not possess human characteristics, to know god better and to understand him better i study science.

there has been a new discovery of strange signals picked up from black holes and distant supernovae suggest there's more to space-time than einstein believed.

FlyingHighNow

Einstein was abiguous and vague, but he denied being an atheist that we know.

He probably didn't want to provoke his athiest peers, and lay himself wide open for their public criticism of his very personal beliefs.

After being with an intelligent man who doesn't try to push me around, I am ruined. I will never be with that old timey thinking kind of guy again.

I found that the head of the household thing really just saves husbands from the trouble of communicating with his wife and children. What he says goes: end of conversation. Meanwhile, the wife and kids plot ways to get as far away from him as they can.

I have to say that most of the elders I knew over the years were nice guys and their wives were sweet, too. I only met one or two sisters who tried to boss their husbands around. One of them was my sister. My sister had a very domineering husband though, so she countered him a lot of the time. In their later years, the tables completely turned and now she is the tyrant.
