  How to Avoid the Faithless Spirit of most here-

  by DocHouse in

  2. beliefs

  1- pray to god (whomever you may imagine him to be) asking for understanding.

  2- study the background about the bible (from non-religious sources) to see where it came from.

  3- discard (or at least set aside) chuyrch claims and dogma.. 4- read it, looking up archaeological/historical sources about the places and peoples referred to.

  As has been mentioned or alluded to, there is some good in everything. Not every person who believes in the jw faith is evil.

  For those whom the world had forsaken from the beginning, it is a path to something where there was nothing.

  It is not the only path, nor is it mine but it is for some.

  And it is beyond my control

  Athiests: Do you ever wonder... what if?

  by toweragent in

  2. friends

  i'll start by saying, i'm a ministerial servant who is trapped in the religion.

  my wife is hardcore...but i've slowly been getting her to lighten up, so i'll take it!

  all my friends and family are jw's, and i am employed by a jw (who is actually a great boss).

  Do you ever look back and wonder "what if"?

  Sure, sometimes. Most people do.

  What if the god of the bible is real?

  If he/she/it is, it ain't a god worth worshipping IMO. Like most gods, they are a reflection of the writer and/or religious beliefs of the time.

  What if there is a creator who is not the god of the bible?

  Slightly more appealing but just as unlikely for the same reasons.

  No afterlife? Did you have to get over this fact or was it pretty easy for you?

  It was pretty easy to accept my mortality actually. Carpe diem.

  Does consciousness end with the death of the body

  by givemejustalittlemoretime in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  apparently, the carvakas in anceint hinduism were materialists and skeptics, arguing that consciousness ends with the death of the body and that therefore we should take pleasure in this life while we possess it and practice compassion toward others.

  they also argued that direct observation is the only certain way to know anything, and thus the existence of supernatural forces and realities cannot be established and must be rejected.

  Does consciousness end with the death of the body?

  Since consciousness is a function of the brain, it would follow that consciousness ends with brain death.

  Anything more is unsubstantiated theory and/or belief in magic

  Malaysian flight crash in Ukraine VS Flight 93 in Pennsylvania

  by EndofMysteries in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i wonder if anybody else has wondered about the differences between those 2 flights?

  in the malaysian flight that crashed from 30,000 feet high, tons of wreckage, body parts, bodies, documents, etc, all over the place.

  yet in the pa flight 93, just a crater in the ground, no bodies, everything supposedly vaporized.

  Good thing the Bilderbegers, Rockefellers, Freemasons, and Lizard-eyed replicants all have deep pockets.
