I have to say that if this happened to me, I'd look for another therapist. You want to continue seeing this therapist, which is your decision, just be aware that if necessary, you can move on to another one who won't preach.

Why Evolution Is True--something that scares me
by DS211 inso im reading "why evokution is true" by coyne and the page im on is talking about darwin and natural selection:.
"but natural selection was also the part of evolutionary theory con- sidered most revolutionary in darwins time, and it is still unsettling to many.
selection is both revolutionary and disturbing for the same reason: it explains apparent design in nature by a purely materialistic process that doesnt require creation or guidance by supernatural forces.

You seem to be having a stressful day -- I read your other thread, too. Facing reality can be difficult and painful. Don't worry too much about it; just get what you can out of each day. I don't think there's any point in looking back and regretting, or in looking too far forward and having still more regret.
It's a sad thing that this life is probably all there is. But, it makes life more precious and we don't want to waste it.

China puts the squeeze on US media
by Hortensia inhttp://www.bbc.co.uk/news/blogs-echochambers-25272500.
i wonder what would happen if the chinese started buying up these huge news conglomerates, maybe put times in their back pocket, buy a bunch of agencies like reuters.
news is already very selective, depending on who owns the news media.. social media, like twitter, facebook and so forth, prevent news from being totally hidden, but those outlets are very capricious in content.

Social media, like twitter, facebook and so forth, prevent news from being totally hidden, but those outlets are very capricious in content. And, countries like China, the middle east, Russia can block access to those websites if they want to do so.

I read your post not long after you wrote it, but didn't really have any answer. It's interesting to read the ideas other folks have given you.
I don't think there's anything you could say that would change your friend's mind. I guess your answer to the email depends on what results you want. To reveal your true thoughts by answering those questions completely would certainly cause your friend to think of you as an apostate.

Thinking of taking a break from this forum
by yadda yadda 2 instarting to feel my time is wasted on here lately and its time to move on.. some of the best, meaty stuff only gets a few hundreds views and as soon as the posts dry up a bit the thread is soon forgotten (usually in a few days) under the constantly falling snowflakes of new threads (many trival) continuously being created and popping up as 'active topics'.
the same core jw related subjects then keep reappearing over and over again as new threads without getting a thorough treatment at the time (eg, there must be at least one 'are jw's a cult' thread started each week on here; 'new light' topics get about 20 new threads started with the quality of analysis spread and diluted over all of them.).
anyone else tend to feel the same way at times?.

What is interesting to you might not be all that interesting to others who post here. Lots of people here and they are all different.
Of course, I'm one of those people who posts trivial stuff. Bite me.
