  I read once, imagine the person you would want to go through your bedroom dresser drawers at your death, that person is your best friend. Right about now, I don't have anyone that I would give that honor to. Sad, but true.

  i guess i lean more towards an agnostic point of view; though if asked, i will still identify myself as a christian.

  why, i'm not really sure if i'm honest with myself.

  it all boils down to how i feel about the earth and all of the inhabitants thereon.

  Wow! Great arguments Dave! If I'm honest, I don't - but probably only because it is illegal.

  quotes are from the 2005 wt cd red text is mine

  the wts claims to be the sole source of god's truth on earth today.

  truth is so important to them that they even use the term "truth" as a name for their teachings.

  Besty - Actually, it sounds like we are together on a lot of things. I've used the analogy that I feel like an alien who has just landed on this planet and doesn't know the language, layout or customs. Whereas I once believed that I knew it all (or a close proximity to it all), I now readily accept that I know NOTHING. I can't answer questions from a definitive point of view, and I'm not sure if I'll EVER feel comfortable thinking that I KNOW the answers to any of the big questions ever.

  I'm ok with working and managing my own little world and as long as I live by the golden rule, whatever will be will be. In the interim, however, it is interesting to hear how other people think about things - hence my pondering question above.
