  The email shows he believes himself to be highly educated, yet with each point he is incorrect. I would feel sorry for the man if it was not for how arrogant he is.

  Scriptural Grounds for Divorce - Unbelievable story

  by Comatose in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i personally know the individual involved closely, this is not a rumor.

  this is what happens when you let three unqualified guys decide whether or not you get to ever date again with jehovah's blessing.. a young man finds out his wife is cheating on him by seeing texts on her phone.

  he knows the person she is cheating with.

  A startling example of a JW ignoring evidence

  by Pyramid God in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i happen to work with my father, and today we got into another debate about the origin of life.

  during the debate, while rebutting a lot of creationist canards, he said that mutations are always harmful to an organism.. .

  after he left i sent him a quick email with a link to talk origins on the subject of mutations.

  Ask him how the few thousand species on the ark became the few million species on earth today, if evolution is not possible.

  I cry every time I cut an onion into pieces - but it don't mean I didn't mean to cut it.

  10 out of 10 for histrionics Pistorious but I doubt you'll get an Oscar for it.

  That's fantastic.

  To just stop going is not living a lie, but it is important to do what give you both the best closure.

  In Defense Of Pantheism

  i hope the link works....it's on dailygalaxy anyway and deals with the mystery of how plants seem to make decisions.. rather than choose between atheism or theism, i choose pantheism - that the universe has a degree of consciousness distributed thruout it, perhaps even down to the quantum level.

  we can call this background of a maintained cosmos "god" if we want.

  I had a JW leave what she wanted to purchase on the counter and run out of a shop when she saw me walk up in the queue behind her. It is a kick in the guts, but I felt better after telling the bewildered shop assistant that I had just left the cult she is in, so she is not allowed to talk to me any more.

  Do athiests believe it's possible that aliens, not all powerful God created man?

  by EndofMysteries in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i've sort of mentioned this as a different possibility in response to other threads but i was curious if any of you athiests all think that life just evolved on this earth from single cell organisms or if you ever thought it's possible that intelligent life long ago w/ advanced science could have made humans and much of life on earth and just dumped it here or made it here.

  .

  i'm not making this thread to debate, i am just curious if any of you have come up with other ideas on your own as possibilities since all we have for the origin of life are just theories right now.
