  And what? You came up with your philosophy on your own? Or you don't ever read something that you agree with and say "wow this person put it into better words that I did?".

  Oh that's right, if someone drinks alchohol or does anything you don't like then that discredits their ideas.

  P.S. I haven't given up on humanity.

  If you don't have any outside influence on your view of life then I take everything back.

  Does God speak to you? HOW?

  an answer to this question is subjective to the individual an a posteriori experiene.

  however, can there be an a priori experence, one that is objective, outside the bounds of personel experiene, or does it remain subjective?

  god speaks to me, through many venus, except audible.

  When I used to believe in entities. That was the only time I thought about Satan. I was willing to believe that God talked to me all the time through similar things that has been posted. But rarely did I think about Satan, except for those times that I saw a scary movie and I was alone in the dark. Just wanted to see if any of you had similar situations.

  Because then if many have the same situation, have you ever asked yourself about Satan's communication skills? For a guy that was able to make human sin, he sure doesn't have a good public relations deparment.

  these are some things i have been thinking about .

  .. when i first found this site i registered immediately ... never was a "lurker" ... and i've been here about six months.. everyone was very warm welcoming and i felt at home very quickly ... very pleasant at the time, but as time has progressed i look back and feel a bit "love-bombed" ... much like a religion i used to belong to.. i have found that this site is a bit "cliquey" ... groups of posters frequent at similar times and enjoy their familiarity with each other and that's great ... but they also sometimes exhibit a coolness toward those outside their clique ... almost as if your 'post count' is the first thing by which you are "judged" ... much like a religion i used to belong to.

  some posters develop a personal dislike for others and not only jump on their threads but even deliver the odd "slap" on unrelated threads to increase the discomfort for the object of their dislike ... not unlike a religion i once belonged to.. some posters even follow others around the board looking to counter or use snide or clever put downs at every opportunity ... a kind of intellectual "rivalry" that was common to those in that religion i used to belong to.. many posters like to use 'in-house' jargon and labels eg; "newbies" for those recently joined.

  Berengaria, I think I post too much. lol Well not here that often because I get bored here pretty quick, but I do have 4 other forums that I have been posting for years. One is now completely dead! And none of those are JW related.

  Vampire, I love reading youtube comments for entertainment!

  This happens in so many forums. It's always the same complaints for old timers too. I've seen a topic similar in almost every forum that I post in.

  The old timers get in and talk about the good ol days! Nothing stays the same, not even the forums.

  Have a good one!

  Thanks for your response Tec, here's my next question. Have you ever been completely alone, and in total darkness? Do you ever think about Satan? And if so what are your thoughts and reactions?

  Out of topic, this just came to my mind.

  That reminds me about a show I saw the other day. "The science of dogs". They did an experiment with wolves raised when they were babies versus domesticated dogs.

  They did a problem solving test. There was a treat inside a cage and the wolves would try to get it but never asked for help. When it was the domesticated dogs's turn, when he finally gave up he would stop and looked to his master for help.

  Toddlers do the same thing. I thought that was pretty interesting.
