but isn't it lovely to see yet another thread reduced to wibble and N.Drew's woes?
Sad to see another thread tank b/c of this.

The ECHO of broadcast emotions..........the empty chair where "god" sits
by Terry ini spent sunday with a number of ex-jw's in a very pleasant get-together.
we all discussed the usual things, of course.. one thing i always notice.
how much of the "flavor" of god remains in one form or another.. with ex-jw's the distaste for religion is the strongest without necessarily including distaste for "belief".. religion is the package and god is the contents, you might say.. but-wait, there's more!.

Haven't you ever been away from the forum and cringed at how opinionated we can all be? And then it hits you how it's like residual jw behavior traits.
No, can't say I have. And though such traits are easily attributed to the jw experience, they are by no means exclusive to it.
I normalize this with opinionated (and more often than not, ignorant) people I've known in my life, the majority being outside the jw world. Most people don't take well to having their core values and beliefs challenged, never mind overturned as is typically the case of the xjw. Besides, everything I see here, I've seen outside in varying degrees for different reasons.
I guess I expect strong opinion here; after all, it goes with the territory. No biggee.

You guys are just really awesome
by ilikecheese ini know i don't post much or anything, but i have nothing to do at work (i use the term "work" loosely; no one really does anything in radio.
) and i spend hours a shift reading everything.
i don't know if i'll ever get my boyfriend out of the jws or if i'll even be with him in a few years, but all the stuff you guys post totally solidifies my stance on never getting into this religion.

Watch the movie, this conversation will always be here.
You've nothing to prove to me, but this is a thread about atheism and I was only jackin' cofty's game, lol. It was like this when I got here ;)
But the invitation is open for exclusive evidence that god did it/does it. Submit exhibit A if you will. Or can...

No other evidence to present, beyond what "I belive to be true" or what "might be possible"?

Personal and circumstantial and anecdotal/hypothetical evidence.
Well, first thought is, I wouldn't want to be the accused in a court that would convict on such evidence.

Testimonial evidence tends to need to be backed with other forms of evidence. Same with circumstantial evidence. Or anecdotal/hypothetical evidence. Or personal evidence.
If this is the case, where is further evidence of god, beyond testimony?

Those of you who believe that Christians should not be armed, remember even the Apostles carried personal weapons. I'm sure if they were available, they'd be carrying Beretta's too.
