DRUG INDUCED DECISIONS...not such a good thing.......
by Sparkplug inwell i heard from my brother that a childhood friend that i write to (as he lives in prison) got his sentence.
first in texas there is a 3 strike rule.
so seeing this is his third strike and then some i do not know how that lucky son of a jw got an offer for only 9 years.

I am all for the legalization of drugs, I agree with 144001 in that the justice system spends far too much of its resources trying to stop drug use and punishing those that do use. If drugs were cheap and available I think much of the crime associated with drugs would be eliminated, the huge profits that are reaped now from the sale of drugs lead to an incredible amount of death and mayhem as sellers seek to protect their turf and product. It seems we didn't learn much during the prohibition.
On the other hand, I don't think drug use is all that cool, and the potential for harm to others while under the influence is great.

She said I seem really bitter about my JW experience....
by Sirona in.
i was talking to someone at my new job - she has known me for about 3 months and had something like 2 five minute conversations with me about the jws.. she said "you do come across as really bitter about it".. (note she is definately not a jw).. it was a real eye opener, because although i try and educate people about the truth of jws, i didn't think i was "bitter".. what about you?

LOL, yeah I've had people make that comment to me, to which I usually respond like Lawrence, bitter is way too mild a word. Hate, deep, deep hatred would be much closer to the truth.

Once, and I asked them if they wanted my answer or the preprogrammed canned answer contained in the paragraph that was meaningless to me. Never got called on again, got reamed by the parents when we got home but it was worth it.

Not everyone left the JW Org for the same reason...Why did you leave?
by JH insome left because they couldn't follow the pace.
some left because they knew they were living a double life.. some left because they rathered live a life of sin.. and some left because they considered it a cult.. i stopped going because i was unable to keep up with all their demands and expectations, and i found them too controling.
also because they cover their past and give false hope for the near future.. why did you leave?.

My cult membership expired at 18 when I became an adult and I didn't renew it.

Catholic Church no longer swears by truth of bible?!
by daystar inthe gift of scripture
"the catholic bishops of england, wales and scotland are warning their five million worshippers, as well as any others drawn to the study of scripture, that they should not expect total accuracy from the bible.".
"but the first 11 chapters of genesis, in which two different and at times conflicting stories of creation are told, are among those that this countrys catholic bishops insist cannot be historical.

Defd, as my wife loves to say, we'll see where the JW's are in a couple of thousand years.

No problem Day, I'd love to see some discussion on it.
Derrick, I don't think Jesus was referring to the Bible per se as it hadn't been put in the hotel rooms by the Gideons quite yet.

Why naturalism is irrational

That's the real danger of irrational beliefs though. They cause people to behave in an irrational manner, often with fatal consequences.
Yes, that sadly is sometimes true, but like most things there is the opposite outcome, many of the greatest success stories are born of "irrational" beliefs, that one is capable of fill in the blank (inventing, achieving, etc.) something that everyone tells them is impossible. Everyone around them is telling them they are nuts, delusional, irrational, you'll never do it but they choose to ignore the skeptics and the naysayers and go on to accomplish whatever they were told was impossible.
