Why is it that persons are branded as being full of hate when they simply find something not to their liking?

Why are the atheists on this site so hateful?
by HopeEverLasting inall us creationists try to do is offer true evidence that the one and only god is out there watching and looking down on us.
we present that certain scientists know the truth about god and that he is everything that we see from trees, life, weather, the air we breath, and even the most simple molecules.
but of course you atheists reject it because it is your nature to not be humble and see god because you want to rule your own life.

Why ex-JW's so knowledgeable when it comes to the Bible?
by James Mixon inover the years here on this site i have found over half of the folks can hold their own with any minister.. why when we leave the borg we become proficient on any subject on the bible.. why did we go down that road?
my intention was to get close to jehovah (searching the bible), but i. guess i found lucifer.
i'am ask all the time, how did you go from a true believer to calling the bible a book.

I haven't, nor ever had, a religious bone in my body. As a kid, before my parents conversion to JW-ism, I resisted all attempts to make me sing in a choir or go to Sunday school.
Once my parents were converted, I was subjected to endless hours of witness interpretation of Scripture. But it was all in my head, never in my heart.
The one upside to all this is that I do really well at quizes whenever the questions become Biblical.
That's about it.

I left before 1975 arrived. I suddenly became aware that as most JW prophesies were based loosely on the ramblings of old men succumbing to the delights of magic mushrooms that this was no time to be toying with what remained of my youth.

All the ladies I know are riveted to the men's synchronised diving.
...and somehow i get the feeling that many of those guys wouldn't be returning that interest.

Inverting the idea, our old circuit used to have some young ladies who extolled the virtues of pioneering by singing "Wonderful, wonderful pioneering" to this old tune:

Reinstated and then fade
by Zeds Dead ini'm a man - d'fd for 2.5 years now and divorced.
find it hard to date girls out here only due to always having this secret i carry with me that i was once a jw and the thought of telling a girl one day why my family don't acknowledge me as even alive.. recently been thinking of trying to get reinstated and then do a quick fade as i cant go back to the whole jw stuff.. easier said than done and was turned down twice by elders after an immediate attempt 2 years ago.. my motivation for trying would be 1.
) to see if family make contact and 2) play the last hand in their game and give the middle finger.. interested in viewpoints?.

It's the act of keeping a secret that's cramping your style! Seriously, I used to find that announcing one had been brought up in a cult could open many doors socially speaking, providing one never moaned about it or did the self-pity thing. In fact, it attracted more females than one would get when walking the dog...

I just wonder what names are coming to the fore in this enquiry about historic child abuse. Maybe some names that could rock the British establishment and bring into question the whole UK edifice?

The third to resign? What the hell are these people coming across in their deliberations that make them feel the need to resign?

Jeehoober says we can clap for reinstated ones!!
by DATA-DOG inso, i guess an upcoming wt has some new light on clapping!
evidently, jesus has misinformed the gb/wtbts since the late 90's.
clapping was disrespectful, because jesus felt that those who were df'd should not be given a pat on the back.

Doesnt that fly in the face of the parable of the prodigal Son ?
It does indeed. Especially when the father rushed to him as soon as he saw him in the distance.
