Wasn't all of this covered in 1998 on H2O? Either these IDers are trolls or massively ignorant. "I don't proof read my posts" - "Oh well so what if not all my facts are right, my basic principles of argument are sound." ( http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/6072/1.ashx ) Hooberus....hubris.... I detect a pattern. Do you gentlemen say your prayers at night before sleeping? (Why do humans need sleep anyway? Will we sleep in paradise?)

Well I know quite a few dubs that use four-letter words deemed "obscene" by the FCC.
Reminds me of a time a few years back when my JW wife goofed something up on our work computer and while we were both standing there figuring out how to fix it she said "Oh shit", then covered her mouth with her hand, looked at me and giggled. Ya don't say "Oh shit" once; verbiage such as that becomes ingrained in your brain with use.

Very Bad Apologetics For Honest Seekers
by AlanF ingod had no beginning, so god did not need to be made.. .
if our local space-time universe is uncreated, then of course it is meaningless to ask who created it.
of course, everything that had a beginning had a beginner.

hey Terry, I describe myself as an agnostic, not so much that I don't know (I could be agnostic about a lot of things I certainly believe in but don't understand), but that I simply don't care....... that's as mild as I can state it.
The question of whether the judaic-christian god exists is an absurd one to me and I don't need to read a lot of books on any topic to reach that conclusion.

That and there's a certain camaraderie that exists here, and we don't even have to offer Simon any sexual favors to use his board.

When I was still a dub, an older lady of the congo said to me (as I recall) privately once, 'We've been told for fifty years Armageddon is coming soon. I don't know why it hasn't or what really to think and I'm a tad upset.'
Poor baby-boomers like my dad were told they'd never finish high school because Armageddon would come.
People like your mom are becoming rarer, I think. A lot of JWs probably couldn't even explain the expected chain of events leading to the great tribulation, nor could they show you from the Bible, nor really do they care. Some older ones still care....... I guess.

I appreciate the good friends I have made online
by Cygnus ini've given away much about my personal life and troubles here and have received much support publicly and also by means of emails and pms.
i just wanted to take a minute and say thank you to all who send positive messages my way.
life is very troubling right now, not as bad as bryan's, but with little use of my hands, no job, the possible impending loss of my house, living alone and barely being able to throw out the garbage let alone do much in the way of cleaning or preparing meals (oh, poor poor cygnus, let's all have a pity-party for him), and having to fire my shrink because he laughed at me and dismissed my problems with a "that'll be $155.00 for nothing," i'm thinking at 6:30pm est of laying low for a while and counting on friends and family.

I dunno. I love reading posts here and just can't help but offer my 2 cents and whatever but lately it's done nothing but backfire... except for those of you who have some sympathy. To you I say thanks. I really have little interest in JWs anymore, I just like the people here.

Bryan, add me to the long list of well-wishers. I recently watched your video, and oft think, "THIS is the guy who's going through this tragedy." It's good to know people, even strangers, care, isn't it?

Simon, be careful with Alan. He's a dangerous pipper.
