  is atheism a belief system.

  after all the atheist believes there is no god .so if that's the case then an atheist if a person of faith.

  On the other side of the coin I can think of a number of times when certain ones tried to tell people like

  FHN what she must believe... if she is a believer ... again understanding and consideration are in order

  My memory is short.

  Beatles Songs That Aren't Performed By The Beatles

  by DT in

  2. friends

  i was hoping you could help me with a little research project.. for reasons that are a little hard to explain, i'm interested in watching videos of beatles songs that are performed by anybody except the beatles themselves.

  i'm especially interested in performances by people from foreign countries, (i'll provide a few examples.

  ) but feel free to add any other interesting videos.

  org is dying

  by lambsbottom in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i don't understand why so many ex jws and faders think that the jws will continue to grow and thrive as a religion.

  i still attend a meeting once a week and you can smell the death of the religion creeping up when you hear the talks, read the study wts and hear the letters from the gb.

  the way the organization has changed is a sign that it reached its peak (in "healthy" membership) long ago.

  Religion/ misguided belief itself is the cause of most conflicts...how many wars, uprisings, and blood sheds have atheists been responsible for?....

  Think about the former USSR, China and N. Korea for starters.

  The difference between 1975...1995..and now is the Internet.

  Think about how different the org is now compared to 76, when I started studying. There is no book study night. There is one AWake per month and one Watchtower issue for the public. All the books are in softback now. Pioneer hours are cut way down. Circuit assemblies are cut down. The governing body has become so toxic, that people don't feel any joy anymore. They feel oppressed and their self esteem has just about been obliterated. People were staying sick from all the stress by the time I left. I can't imagine what it's like for them now. And they just look ridiculous when they come into the place I work, dressed in meeting clothes. The boys wearing ties and dress shirt and the little girls wearing ugly dresses. They think they stand out as so well groomed and respectful, but they just look pitifully dated, not unlike that movie Pleasantville.

  YOu can't oppress people, in the heavy way the JWs do, forever. Remember when the iron curtain fell?

  the Protestant world could in fact be “worse” than the Catholic Church.

  2. child-abuse

  at the request of bju, the nonprofit godly response to abuse in the christian environment (grace) is currently investigating the university for how it's handled sexual abuse.

  more than 100 people have come forward to grace investigators, and the report is due out in the next few months.

  boz tchividjian, the head of grace, believes christian organizations across the country have failed victims in similar ways, and that the protestant world could in fact be worse than the catholic church.

  Schools cover up child abuse and colleges cover up rapes and other kinds of violence.

  I'm heading off to work soon. Take care and thank you for being the sweet, breath of fresh air on this forum that you are. If it weren't for good ladies and gentlemen like you and Coco, there wouldn't be much reason for coming around here.

  Caedes, if I was ashamed of my belief that there is some kind of god, I wouldn't tell you or anyone else about it. I'm not ashamed. On JWN lately, it actually takes guts to admit that you're not an athiest.
