true believers, whether christian, muslim or whatever, want to convert you, they want you to believe what they do, and they're willing to go to extremes to make it happen.
atheists don't really care what you believe, and don't go out of their way to convert someone.. http://ow.ly/vn1jz an example of what believers in power do to suppress any difference in thought.

Hi Cofty,
no where in particular. I just get bored with the annual flurry of memorial threads and haven't been on the site as much. I'm a lot farther down the road than many JWNers. Too many years since I cared about what the wtbts is doing, eh?
I hope all is well with you!

LOL! good comment - but, I believe, on the whole, that atheists aren't out to convert true believers. There aren't very many evangelical atheists, are there?

so i was df'd a couple weeks ago.
i live in a place where i didn't really have new friends at the kh, so my day to day life isn't changing.
i'm just me living life like i was 2 weeks ago and 2 years ago.
They say they have to see her without us. So, still figuring that one out. I have to come up with a way to preserve my daughters realtionship and not let them indoctrinate her (which they would). So, we will be talking about that before long I am sure. They will want to come stay in our town in a hotel and see her. Wish there was a good way to solve this easily. But, its going to be a pain in the ass.
There is NO way for her to have a "normal" relationship with the grandparents. If they are hardcore enough to shun you, they are hardcore enough to do everything possible to convert your daughter and turn her against you.
And the whole shun the parent/love the grandkids thing is very very crazy. You don't have to do anything except protect your daughter. If they want to see her, they see you and treat you decently -- it's a package deal.
i definitely look like a worldly person by jw standards... however i went to my old hall because they are remodelling and they are in the final p[hase.
it was not on purpose.
i had bnusiness on the street and happened to drive past.
HE IS AN APOSTATE!
They've just caught a live glimpse of el cuco, chupacabra, boogeyman, and every other demon wrapped up in your one body!
Losingit -- Damn, that's funny!
i am a newly unbaptised publisher.
recently i found out i need to have major surgery and the jw's tried to rush a blood card in my hand.
i was so relieved when the elders said i could not have one until i was baptised.. but they rushed to get me copies of the blood videos.
I hope all goes well and you recover quickly with no stupid/dangerous blood hassle.

it says it's the 15th but that's in ut.
i am in utc-6 (on dst) so for me and those who have a chance to see it it will be on the 14th starting at 9:58pm and ending at 2:58 am on the 15th.. .
I got to watch it -- sat out in the garden with some other old folks until after midnight. We watched until totality and then I came in -- it was getting cold! Watched the rest of it on Slooh.com which is a very cool website. Well, I didn't sit there and watch, that's sort of like watching water boil. I checked in now and then to see how it was progressing.
Very pretty eclipse.
hey folks.
just need to check in.
due to an injury, i had to start taking some pretty powerful pain killers and stayed on them for about 1 1/2 months until i finally had surgery this past wednesday.
Wow - I'm sorry you're going through this. I'm glad you got some support and some advice on how to reduce the med safely. I hope you feel better soon.
yes I reply -- but I very seldom get any PMs.
You all have seen some amazing sights!
