Does Anyone Still Believe in God?
by LaurenM indo any of you ex-jw's still believe in god?
even with the new rebranding/softening of this religion, i still don't see how people can believe in him.
the god of the old testimate is an angry murderer who approved rapes and slavery and killed thousands of men, women and children.

Lol poor prologos....yes most know how to change the number of posts per page and thus reduce the number of pages. It wasnt a complaint, it was an observation on length, that is to say total number of posts. -

For Thor sake, i love a good metaphor and zen style 'make you think' statement but that is without a doubt the most pointless attempt at philosophy i have ever had the misfortune to read -

Prayer Question I Had After Sundays Watchtower...
by freemindfade inwhile i was sitting through another grueling watchtower, dying from my brain being turned into cult pudding, i had this thought after i heard this read: .
when we express our most intimate thoughts to god in prayer, he may answer us through a bible passage, an article in a magazine, or an encouraging word from a fellow believer.

Praying to a rich guy with expensive vigilante toys?
Just pray to thor. At least hes a real god and his standards are pretty relaxed, no sacrifices or field service or other nonsense. Hate ice giants and drink a mead or two is pretty much the extent of it...

Love is like God.
by The Rebel inneither, can be proven only to the believer can they exist.
we could therefore say that a persons feelings on god and love are simply chemical reactions produced by the brain.
however what i find interesting is that if a certain part of a persons brain gets damaged their personalities and emotions can radically change.. the rebel..

@rebel- my comment was not directed towards you at all. Simon has efficiently handled the situation i was mentioning ;)
that aside, i continue to follow this thread but im not sure i have anything further to add. I follow your posts rebel because i believe your are sincere and dont mind discussing these things with you but its clear we are of differing views regarding god. Once we have discussed a topic im willing to let our exchange stand as it is. To pursue it further would feel like an argument that neither of us intends.

TV.JW.ORG - October 2015: Neighborly love is more than just Field Service
by Designer Stubble inthe october 2015 jw broadcast, hosted by gerrit losch is quite positive actually.a lot of focus on "field service" needs to be balanced with other good works - supporting those in need around you - either in the congregation (witnesses) or in your classroom or neighbors (non-witnesses).
visiting and encouraging the sick and elderly is mentioned.
jesus parable of the merciful samaritan is highlighted.

Totally agree with sir82. They dont mean it until it counts as service time -

Absolom, are you seriously apologizing? For what, exactly? Going above and beyond? Providing accurate and uptodate info on the spot?
Fools deserve no response.

So the answer is yes. I trust that by drawing attention to your proselytizing for that sect (again) you will be banned (again).
