Which church?
by faundy ini don't feel comfortable living as an atheist.
i believe the world is far to complex and humans are too incredible to have just occurred.
therefore, if i was to attend a church, which one should i consider?

Are there things you can't get rid of?
by faundy infor instance, i still can't bring myself to say 'bless you' when someone sneezes.
i still cringe when saying 'good luck' and even now i feel i am being really naughty when shopping for a birthday card for someone.

Apathy
by faundy ini was thinking earlier about the way that in the field service the main thing the witnesses encounter is 'apathy.
' i was wondering what people think of this.
are people really more apathetic about life and the future, or do you think that they simply don't wish to discuss it on a saturday morning with the door open, letting all the heat out of the house?

Banned Religion
by faundy inone of the teachings of the witnesses is that prophetically, it has been revealed that religion will be banned shortly, and that this is another sign of the great tribulation.
assuming the other prophecies were a load of hoodlum, how would you feel if you turned on the news this morning and saw that bush, brown, and other world leaders declared a united front, banning religion?
would it make you wonder whether the witnesses may have been right?

What now?
by faundy ini stopped going to meeting over a year ago (profile explains why) and have enjoyed doing all the stuff that comes with being a non-witness; ie going out, meeting new people, lying in on a sunday, never having to wear dowdy skirts, etc.
however since coming on the forum and commenting more, i have realised that eventually i will wonder about faith again.
i still have a bible, the nwt, and even though some may say it's not a good version i do find it pleasant to read, and it's what i'm used to.
