My Story, in verse

by dedpoet in

this is my 1000th post, (light sabre required now), and as i've never told my story on this forum i though i'd do it now.

as some of you may be aware, i write poetry, and some even think i'm talented, so i decided to write it down in verse.

it's very much a work in progress, i haven't finished it yet, but here's part one:.

I had a real treat today....

WINNIE, if you're out there?

please don't leave.

we do care about you and want to offer our support of you and your family in what must be very difficult circumstances.. the reason i called for assistance from a forum moderator was because i was afraid my alligator mouth would overload my hippopotamus behind where you were concerned.

it does that sometimes.. frannie.

The vote is in: SCIENCE vs RELIGION......who won?

by Terry in

history has demonstrated:.

religion is following orders by implicitly trusting someone or something.. science asks questions.. religion purports to answer questions.. science seeks to disprove its own conclusions.. religion seeks to reinforce its own dogma.. science is error-correction toward adjusting for realities as they unfold.. religion internalizes against reality by mocking up a substitute.. science is the most recent development of the human mind.

technology proves science to be successful in advancing human progress.. religion disdains human progress and waits for the end.

I have gone scuttling back to re-read my copy of The God Delusion. I've also discovered an interesting site - Human Spirit - don't laugh or groan. Take a look if you have time.

Crumpet the Human Guinea Pig -Clinical Trials - Anyone tried it /have info?

by Crumpet in

has anyone here been involved or know anything about clinical drugs testing and trials?

i'd just like to gather as much information as i can before i go ahead.

am interested in info both sides of the atlantic.

Crumpet I should have added that the brother in question believed/believes very strongly that armageddon is around the corner - don't know what long term damage he could've done to himself, sorry I'm so negative about it.

I know a brother who did it regularly and is still as healthy as ever - he got paid very well. However I wouldn't recommend it - anything can happen

Hypothetical situation: What would you do?

by winnie in

jw
friends

lets just say that the jw teaching regarding armageddon, living forever were true.. and lets say that many on this forum who still attend meetings somehow survive.. you don't agree with the teachings.

you may not even like many others who survive.

why would you want to live with the kind of people who continually judge others actions?

bernadette

Hypothetically I would stay in for reasons like justice for all, love of neighbour, love for god, worldwide unity etc etc etc because i would keep those ideals in front of me constantly and believe that I was working towards them.
