After the JW's I've found that actual understanding and the real world come from my studies of different cultures, beliefs, and sciences and many other things. So don't have much faith, but sure as hell have a lot more to live for.

Evidence for evolution, Installment 6: The bible requires it
by seattleniceguy inhappy sunday, everyone!
this week we will be breaking from our normal tack of examining scientific evidence, and instead consider the issue from a different perspective.
now, when you consider the number of animal species in the world today, it is clear that there are literally millions more species than could ever have fit into noah's ark.

That's the most distinctive atribute to the christian religion in my opinion. It gives you the ability to not have any responsibilty for your reasoning. They have the benefit of not being able to explain themselves since it's mystic and magical. This leads people to a life of no definity. Anything can be magical to them. Them stumping their toe and calling it the devil's work then praising god for it healing. They can atribute this to us bombing a country saying it's god's work. Prove them wrong, you can not and most individuals are too afraid to acknowledge a person's religious ignorance because they themselves are just as deep into it. This leads down a long road of self deception and undefinence. Not saying it ain't a happy life, it's just a self deceiving one.

"since we are saying that a few thousands animals (at most) speciated into the millions we have today in the space of only 4300 years, we are not only relying on evolution, but we are relying on hyper-speed evolution." HA I love it. They're more of an evolutionist than ME! I'm jealous. All joking aside it was a nice article. Filled with more common sense than straight facts but still gives more truth than your other articles. Thumbs up. Sheesh I should be saving these could start a book.

Do you think the world will end soon. If so, when?
by Rod P inpredictions for the end of the world have been going on since the time of christ, and in every century since then.
during the past 100 years there have been more predictions for the end of the world than have been made in all the previous centuries combined.
many of these prophesied dates have since come and gone.. people look around and see the possibility of many different natural or man-made disasters by which the end could come.

I wish people would stop depressing themselves about the real world. If they stop worrying about the end we won't freakin need an end. I sure as hell don't.

Thing about that Okla. People need to listen but you are talking to Deaf mutes here. Most of them won't listen and will litterally shun you before the JC even thinks about talking to you. Unless you trust somebody extensively or you're just about to leave you could get away with it. Otherwise I dont think so.

Did we become JW because we wanted someone else to do our thinking for us?
by Rod P inask yourself the question "do i have the kind of personality that is attracted to a strong person or entity that speaks with authority, and is very assertive?".
most of us just want to follow the leader.
it makes us feel protected and secure.

I can honestly say I never liked anybody to control my mind. Kind of identified the control early on but still had mental anguish from all the pressure. Just couldn't imagine my best friends dieing.
