i still have a hard time wrapping my brain around this.
for example why do so many believe in the bible when ample proof exists that negats its validaty?
why not believe in zeus or jupitor, etc.
I have always said, that people believe in religion, because they can't handle the fact, that what we have here is all the is. The only way to be remembered, is to accomplish something, to better humanity, during your brief time on this earth. It is much easier to believe in God, than to know that when you are gone, in 20 years no one will ever know you were ever here.

kate and i were having a discussion (with some differences of opinion .
what if there were no "total posts" listed under your screen name?
what if there were no such tags as "newbie, junior, senior, etc., etc., etc.," or "forum assistant, administrator.".
On another forum, I have made 357 posts in 4 years, there I go for quality vers quantity.
Here I have made over 100 posts in 48 days, here I go for quantity vers quality.
I have to get up there with the big guys.

many of us who were once jehovah's witnesses had a measure of happiness in our lives.
for me, i had a hope in the future, i had answers as to why we are all here, i believed in a loving god who looked after me and cared about me, i had answers to all of lifes big questions.. when i found out the truth about the witnesses, i was lost in a great big world and now had no answers other than the fact that what i once believed was "the truth" in actuality wasn't the truth.i now had to start all over in my search for truth.
for me, it wasn't long before i found what i thought was the truth since i always believed in the bible.
Welcome back Gumby.
I knew I would never make to paradise (I was never good enough); so, the prospect of death, being the end, has never bother me.
The truth about the "Truth" has made me happier; because, I now know that all of those selfish, greedy, unloving, JW bastards will die too. 27 years and I am still angry that, that cult still controls most of my family.
I am a atheist, I know that there is no afterlife, God or whatever, if I am wrong about this, I am a good person and am prepared to be judged accordingly.
In my life I have known many truly evil people (JWS and not) and I refuse to believe, that, not believing, will get me punished. If the God of the Bible is real he/she would be on my evil list and as my family believes, I am controlled be Satan. So be it.

i actually attended the bookstudy on friday, don't ask me why.
anyway the revelation book is being considered and we're at the paragraph where the congregation in ephesus is comended for "not bearing bad men.." apostates.. .
the comments from the ones attending were so baised and ignorant.
Bitter and angry, not me, never was. Upset and disappointed, that I had been lied to, yes.

so friday my brother and i found a nursing home for my mom to stay at.
it was a very hard thing to do.
he had me go hunting.
(((((((Sparkplug))))))
You know, she is just pushing your buttons, don't let it happen. You should not feel guilty, you did the right thing. Don't visit her, if you can't handle it, wait until your brother is back. Don't under circumstances take the kids until, you know she will not act up. You don't want her to F**k them up. Good luck.

through out my witness life i have always believed that when the partakers at memorial went up that means.
that some of the anoited were unfaithful and had to be replaced.
i have beleived this for 40 years.
there are at least several thousand liars and/or mentally ill and/or delusional Witnesses out there.
I hear it is about, 6 million, liars and/or mentally ill and/or delusional Witnesses out there.

tokyo (reuters) - cleanliness has long been next to godliness for the hygiene-conscious japanese, but fortune-tellers are now advising those who want to succeed in life to start by scrubbing the smallest room.. "cleaning the toilet to attract luck" published this month is the latest in a series of books advising readers on how to attract good fortune using a brush and an array of cleaning fluids.. "don't just wipe the floor, polish it," the book instructs.
"it's important to maintain a positive mood while cleaning.".
How can so many smart people, be sooooooooooooo stuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuupid?
