Exposing one's identity. When?
by kairos ini've been toying with the idea of just coming out and posting my name and location as an attempt to be available to locals that secretly browse the forum that have known me for up to 25 years.
( "reaching out", so to speak ).
i'm not da'd or df'd, so this most certainly could end in a dramatic confrontation.

Labeling one self "Atheist" is Unscientific
by LAWHFol ini have not meet all atheists, and it would be foolish for me to assume that all atheists, share the same prototypical view points.
i am inclined to feel that this classifies the views of a large percentage of atheists.
"atheism is, in a broad sense, the rejection of belief in the existence of deities.

I agree!!!
'Atheist" is a term that exists only due to RELIGION and nothing is more unscientific than RELIGION. Go away religion so there don't have to be anymore "atheists"

Has the WT ever said it's okay to steak rare?
by neverendingjourney ini'm revisiting an old topic here, but this was a subject of much confusion for me when i was still a witness.
i went to a spanish congregation in the u.s. and it seemed to be taken for granted by most that you needed to cook beef thoroughly to "get rid" of the blood.
i was surprised when i learned that folks in the english speaking hall would order a steak medium-rare and think nothing of it.. it wasn't until after i left the witnesses that it started to occur to me that if the red fluid that was present when you'd cut the beef was blood, cooking it thoroughly wouldn't get rid of it, it'd just cook it and transform it into another color.

A nice big bloody steak, a single malt scotch, and a cigar...
jdubs don't know what hey are missing
To me the rare steak vs well done has often boiled down to cultural, it has been my own personal experience (not based on any science) that my african american and african/african peeps tend to prefer things well done. In fact had taken a good friend (Trinidadian) to Peter Lugers, the Brooklyn bethel of steak if you will (church). We were having a good laugh at his expense. When they brought it out, the look on his face lol, and he asked if he could have some of it cooked more, the waiter (probably second generation Peter Lugers waiter) looked as if he had just punched one of his kids in the face in front of him. Good times we all had a good laugh. But again not any empirical data on that just my own consistent experience.

where there was a conflict between the Bible and science, the Bible would prevail, because all scripture is "inspired by God"
by freemindfade inthought i would put this in its own thread.
it another embarrassing statement from the rc (royal commission not regional convention lol).
it's not even one about abuse, its about the jw's stance on science and the bible.

Mr Spinks also said where there was a conflict between the Bible and science, the Bible would prevail, because all scripture is "inspired by God"
