  I say don't DA, don't give them the satisfaction. Stay in and live your life however you want. Do it your way not theirs

  Science still doesn't have the answers on how life first appeared

  by EndofMysteries in

  since so many athiests in this thread, and since i'm going to college, i was curious if what i would learn in biology would change my thoughts and show that life clearly and easily spontaneously happened.

  just looking up the origins of dna or rna there is nothing conclusive.

  for example, scientists today are able to manipulate life.

  This is the difference. science is comfortable in saying they do not have all the answers. This is what keeps the pursuit of truth and knowledge going. Religion is just not allowed to not have all the answers. Blinded by belief. Look at the dark ages. In this day and age it will get harder for religion to maintain this as science and archeology are outpacing the stories of the bible more each day.

  by John Aquila in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  in chapter 4 of luke it says jesus went into the wilderness and he ate nothing but fasted forty days and forty nights..

  now i dont know about any of you but i once got on a 5 day liquid diet and only lasted 2 days.

  i was so hungry that even when i fell asleep i started dreaming a hot brunette was handing me a couple of slices of pizza.

  Really don't feel like a JW anymore

  by snare&racket in

  it has been a good 8 years away from my area, a good 10 years + since i was regularly at meetings.

  a good 12 years since i was hesitantly active.. it is a slow process but it does happen.

  i now feel no connection to the belief system beyond memories.

  Well said, it helps a lot of us to read the similar relief experienced getting out of the mentally destructive group. When my wife tells me "what other loving peaceful religions..." I have to bite my tongue. Because you don't know that it is none of those things until your mind is freed from its control. Then your realize it has a very very destructive side.

  The Bible's huge implicit contradiction on the subject of love for God vs love for your fellow man.

  by Island Man in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  "if anyone makes the statement: i love god, and yet is hating his brother, he is a liar.

  for he who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot be loving god, whom he has not seen" - 1 john 4:20. here the bible implies that it is far easier to love a visible person than an invisible one.

  therefore if one lacks love for a visible person, how much more so he must lack love for the invisible god.

  Island Man

  good logic Island man I will have to remember this one.

  I like finding versus in the OT then thinking if any could imagine jesus saying them. 

  Compare 2 Kings 1:9-10 vs Luke 9:54-55

  
  

  9  The king then sent to him a chief of 50 with his 50 men. When he went up to him, he was sitting on the top of the mountain. He said to him: “Man of the true God,+ the king says, ‘Come down.’”10  But E·li′jah answered the chief of the 50: “Well, if I am a man of God, let fire come down from the heavens+ and consume you and your 50 men.” And fire came down from the heavens and consumed him and his 50 men.

  54  When the disciples James and John+ saw this, they said: “Lord, do you want us to call fire down from heaven and annihilate them?”+ 55  But he turned and rebuked them.  Luke 9:54 Some manuscripts them, just as Elijah did
