We are for most former JW's
Do you have biblical knowledges?
because it won't be easy ... even with that knowledge to get a chance to prove how wrong the JW doctrine biblically.Also they have a very specific language (quiet powerfull with the way they are endoctrinated) - so you will have to cross that barriere too. not from your will but hers.
I leave it for others to give you some ideas ... I just don't know from where to start

6HELP!
by bendineen inmy name is ben and i attend a high school in australia.
in my english literature class i sit next to a jw pole girl whom i have some grave concerns for, and the reason i am posting this thread is to see if someone can give me a reasonable explanation for her and her parents attitudes before i intervene.
the situation is this - this girl is failing her final year of high-school because her parents force her to distribute jw leaflets and do other such activities instead of doing homework, she also vocally refuses to vote (which is compulsory in australia) and criticizes australians for not accepting her family as one - even though they insist they are not.

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

Sorry I am the one who messed up here (confusion) ... Marketing as economy are not sciences (but technics which use social sciences = psychology.

No thing
by A Paduan inand without him was no-thing made that was made.
i suppose an example of this is the watchtower god and the associated lies.. another example could be temptations.
any ideas (real ones) ?.

Crumpet : (Sorry I guess I haven't been precise enough)
In fact I know this scripture (whichactually says that Christ - which is maturity to me in every aspect - himself is not a creation : without him nothing would have come to existence)What I don't understand is what he wants to discuss about?

For what it's worth,.....
by Twitch ini was thinking about the various reasons i come to this site and felt the need to espouse some thoughts.
i shied away from this site at first for what now seems some rather silly reasons; as if there were things here i didn't need to know, lol.
but i did and do enjoy the scope of topics here, the intelligence, cameraderie and diverse opinions of the posters here.

That's What I'M Talkin' About!
by Farkel incall me a curmudgeon.
there are just some expressions in today's vernacular that are just idiotic, and "that's what i'm talkin' about" is one of these.
it is so ghetto.. several people are saying 'blah, blah, blah, de blah and more de blah..." suddenly, a dimwit in the group hears something that dimwit didn't even mention but happens to like the subject and then dimwit blurts out, "now that is what i'm talkin' about!".

If that is what i'm talking about, who ever said it would be what I'm talking about anyway (lazy or not it helps when someone can just put it the right way).
