Why are the atheists on this site so hateful?

all 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.

DJS: I think I'm in love

Be careful

Ya wouldn't want emotion to get in the way of making rational decisions

crazy: Speedybrother, when one confesses or is caught strait away the brother usually do a decent job except calling the police

No they don't

They tell the victim to "put your tears in a skin bottle"

That is not doing a decent job. That is pure, unadulterated nonsense and it is harmful, not helpful

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

It is a way to shift blame onto others. It is victim behavior. They are so used to being a victim - it is their comfort zone - when they perceive someone is threatening them, they immediately victimize themselves, placing themselves back into that comfort zone that feels so good to them.

Certain theists (not all of them) have such a strong emotional attachment to their chosen god that they attempt to rationalize that attachment and claim that their emotional choice is not an emotional one at all. They want others to believe that their choice is a good one and based upon rational thinking. They need emotional confirmation that their emotional choice is valid

The problem arises because belief is emotional and not believing is rational. Apples and oranges

Evolution has nothing at all to do with emotion and everything to do with rational thinking. Belief has everything to do with emotion and nothing at all to do with rationality

So the 'war' is not between 'god' and 'evolution' - it is between emotion and rationality. Apples and oranges

The 'hateful' position belongs to the emotional position - the theists. The ones whose comfort zone is defined by emotional decisions, not rational ones

jehovahs witnesses think that just the bible is proof that god exists but they are wrong.

there is another mode for how he exists.

now we all know many scientists who are creationists now weren’t creationists until they examined the evidence for themselves.

OrphanCrow

hope: There are some amazing scientists that know that God exists

I would like to research that

Are you able to provide some names of those "amazing scientists"?

I am not hateful

Hate would imply that I care about your feelings

Convicted Child Rapist Proselytizing. Is the Community Aware? Is the Community Safe?

by freemindfade in

wow, this is awesome.

this really shows the jw passiveness towards child sex abusers.

there needs to be more of this exposing this!.

OrphanCrow

That is interesting, rebelfighter

It appears like the laws concerning sex offenders going door to door are being put in place in more and more places.

Lol! That could very well be an influencing factor in the recent change to cart witnessing instead of door to door work. The JW prison program, AKA the Pedophile Paradise Rehabilitation Program, has been very effective and now those sex offenders that have been having Bible Studies in jail are getting released. There are too many sex offenders in the JW workforce that are restricted from going door to door and the carts let the sex offenders still put in their time

Huh...I just thought of something

How does this affect the JW's facebook pages and such?

In addition, the public will now have limited access to email addresses and online screen names of registered sex offenders, a law aimed at helping parents keep their children away from possible predators when they play video games or participate in other online activities.

rebelfighter: my opinion is they do not belong in field service

There are lots of people who share your opinion, rebelfighter.

Lousiana has recently passed new laws concerning the door to door activities of sex offenders:

http://www.theadvertiser.com/story/news/local/louisiana/2016/07/30/brace-yourselves-400-plus-new-la-laws-coming/87830436/

SEX OFFENDERS
Convicted sex offenders in Louisiana won’t be able to solicit door to door for any kind of business, adding to a long list of restrictions that prohibit registered sex offenders from driving a bus or taxi or working in an industry that requires going into someone’s home.
Violators of the door-to-door sales ban will face prison sentences from five to 10 years.
In addition, the public will now have limited access to email addresses and online screen names of registered sex offenders, a law aimed at helping parents keep their children away from possible predators when they play video games or participate in other online activities.

And, according to Texas:

http://www.tml.org/legal_pdf/PeddlersQAUpdated-09%202010.pdf

Q: May cities prohibit sex offenders from receiving a peddler, solicitor, or
canvasser license?
A: Probably so. A general law city possesses those powers and privileges that the
State expressly confers upon it. Tex. Dep’t of Transp. v. City of Sunset Valley, 146
S.W.3d 637, 645 (Tex. 2004); Op. Tex. Atty. Gen. No. GA-0526 (2007). General law
cities have been granted specific authority to “license, tax, suppress, prevent, or otherwise regulate” peddlers, which should include preventing a sex offender from receiving a peddler license. TEX. LOC. GOV’T CODE § 215.031. Additionally, both general law and home rule cities have been granted broad authority by the State’s police power for the protection of the public, which should authorize the prohibition of sex offenders receiving peddler, solicitor, or canvasser licenses. TEX. LOC. GOV’T CODE §§ 54.001, 54.004; City of Dallas v. Smith, 107 S.W.2d 872, 874-75 (1937). The Legislature has not, with “unmistakable clarity,” preempted the licensing of sex offenders as peddlers, solicitors, or canvassers from a home rule city’s broad powers. See Op. Tex. Atty. Gen. No. GA-0526 (2007); Dallas Merchant’s & Concessionaire’s Ass’n v. City of Dallas, 852 S.W.2d 489, 491 (Tex. 1993).
Similar reasoning suggests that Texas cities may protect residents by
prohibiting sex offenders from receiving licenses that permit close contact with the
public, especially on private property.
The Supreme Court also noted that the ordinance was founded on fact. North Carolina’s Legislature had formally found that “sex offenders often pose a high risk of engaging in sex offenses even after being released from incarceration or commitment and that protection of the public from sex offenders is of paramount governmental interest.” Id., citing N.C. GEN. STAT.. § 14-208.5 (2007). The North Carolina Supreme Court also cited a report that stated “released sex offenders are four times more likely to be rearrested for subsequent sex crimes than other released offenders.” Id., citing Patrick A. Langan, et al., U.S. Dep't of Justice, Recidivism of Sex Offenders Released from Prison in 1994, at 1 (2003). The danger of sex offenders has also been discussed by the U.S. Supreme Court. Conn. Dep't of Pub. Safety v. Doe, 538 U.S. 1, 4 (2003); McKune v. Lile, 536 U.S. 24, 32-
33 (2002) (plurality).
