Who else finds the internet slow
by JH insince a few months, it's on and off, but i find that the internet is very slow sometimes, like now.. i click on a site, and nothing happens, then i click on anoter site, and it's the same, then i come here and it's slow but i get it.. sometimes i think that the internet is under attack !!!.
so this leads to this question.. if you couldn't access this site anymore or if you had no more internet service, would this bother you a lot?.

Being connected to the internet is a high priority to me. I prefer internet service over cable tv service.
Its one of my lifes luxurys.

How do Cults recruit and keep their members?
by The wanderer in<!-- .style2 {font-family: verdana; font-size: 14px; } .style5 {font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; } .style7 {font-family: arial, sans-serif; color: #1bad00; } .style9 {font-family: arial, sans-serif; color: #7b5d55; } --> how do cults recruit and keep their members?
it starts with learning something new that was not known before.
in the case of jehovah's witnesses, the individual is introduced.

What kind of individuals do you think get readily "taken" ?
Ignorant.
- What is your point of view regarding cults and there methods
I dont care for cults. I am for free speech and free thought. Free speech and free thought tolerates and allows cults. Ironically cults do not allow free speech and free thought. It would be nice in this information age if enough light could be shown on the cults to cause them to wilt.

Shunned by an old friend
by fullofdoubtnow inin all the years i was a jw, although i had many acquaintances, i only had 3 really close friends.
two of them are no longer jws.
one is trev, who is obviously a lot more than a friend to me now, and my friend marion left the wts a few months ago, with a lot of encouragement from me.. my other friend is still very much a jw, and when i was announced as no longer a jw last year, she phoned me to tell me how very upset and disappointed she was.

Sorry you have to find out who your friends are the hard way. Everybody has to make their own decisions and be accountable for their actions. If you get through life having one good friend your lucky. Everyone else are accquaintences.

Our Puppy did not make it.
by Sparkplug inwell after going to bed early for it has been a long day i was awaken by my fourteen year old and she was crying for the vet just called and the puppy i got them two weeks ago just died.
the breeder was at an expo at city hall and they all gave me those "mom i am going to die if i don't have her" looks till i forked over money i did not have for this lil baby beagle.
we brought her home and i thought my she must be so tired for she slept a lot the first day.

Did Adam know the full consequences of his sin?
by truthseeker in"through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men because they had all sinned.
" romans 5:12. this verse has been used to prove that adam was responsible for sin and death.. from a christian standpoint, this is true.
did adam really know the full effects of eating the forbidden fruit?.
-
jaguarbass
Do you hold Adam personally responsible for human suffering, or do you see a man who though that only he and his wife would be affected by their sin?
At one time I held Adam responsible for human suffering. As time went on I found the bible to be an incredible book of contradictions. I dont give a whole lot of credence to the story of Adam and Eve any more.

What Witnesses do better than anybody!
by gordon d inthe one thing that i have to say about the wts is that they crank out some of the best apostates anywhere!.
i've only been here a few weeks but i am already so addicted to this forum.... the people here are unbelievable!.
probably a mix of the most knowledgeable, helpful, compassionate, and open-minded people anywhere on the net.. the way everyone jumps in to offer their support when someone else is feeling down or hurting, the resources of information that are there for the asking, and the non-judgemental attitudes that people convey, even when they dis-agree..... it boggles the mind... how, in the world, did any of you ever attend the kh?????.
