before the mentally diseased apostates could get their hands on and dissect any information regarding the convention that hadn't been released to regular publishers/elders...the society released the district program on the official site completely and utterly slaying every single demented apostate on the face of the earth.

now have fun dissecting it kiddos, while we big kids get a taste of solid, spiritual meet this summer.

continue drowning in misery while god's people go on rejoicing and enduring these last days.

Question for you atheists...

by MrFreeze in

or agnostics too.

are you open about your beliefs (or lack thereof i should say)?

when people talk about anything religious, do you mention that you don't believe in god?

Or agnostics too. Are you open about your beliefs (or lack thereof I should say)?

My beliefs about many things have changed throughout my life and will continue to do so methinks.

When people talk about anything religious, do you mention that you don't believe in God?

No. But if asked I would profess and if pressed would digress. Perhaps to excess.

I find it hard to tell people unless I know them really well. I seem to always get the response "What? You don't believe in God?" Then they never look at me the same way...

I don't get such reactions. Perhaps it's because I don't advertise my beliefs in everyday life. Perhaps it's the people I'm around. Probably both.

If I were to get such a reaction from someone, it wouldn't bother me. And if they look at me differently because of it, that tells me a lot about the kind of person they are.

Psychopaths, atheists and agnostics

by Fernando in

a naughty attention grabbing heading i admit - i'm sorry, just couldn't resist.

obviously we all know atheists and agnostics have nothing in common with psychopaths.

in fact i would hold that atheists and agnostics generally have better functioning consciences than religionists.

Just a few random examples and estimates. Maybe there are better examples of human irrationality and the propensity to shoot ourselves in the foot...

The examples you cite are not psychological, in that neither address the individual mind, which is the subject. If you consider the group and it's motivations, this is now sociology, a related but different subject and one somewhat relevant to your first example at least. These are really more political than psychological issues anyways IMO.

I really am interested to understand how our atheist and agnostic friends on JWN reason about Psychopaths (persons with no conscience).

So am I but not nearly as much as how theists reason about psychopathy. Is it as simple as the Devil made me do it? Does god create people who are damaged? Is it just bad wiring in the membrane through no fault of our own? Is it our will? From where cometh evil?

Inquiring minds want to know...
