“There is only one greater folly than that of the fool who says in his heart there is no God, and that is the folly of the people that says with its head that it does not know whether there is a God or not”
Otto Von Bismarck
evolutionists always claim that the reason why they believe in evolution and reject creation is due to "evidence".
they frequently use the opposite term "no evidence" in relation to any type of intelligent design, or creation, (and especially to genesis creation and flood history !).
their advocated beliefs always tend to include whatever is necessary to believe in to intellectually "explain" the existence of the universe, world, and its creatures without needing god).

i've already written "my story".
i've been "out" for 35 years.
but that is not a story that contains the little stuff.
Your experience will be all the more interesting, Farkel, that you feel the need to talk about it 35 years after these events occurred.
Happy new year to all of you.
Lot of happiness to you, Robdar.

Not in all the Western world, Sylvia, only in the US, because so many doctors are Jewish overthere !
i was going to post a 'welcome' message for all the new people who may have got a computer for christmas and are making their first forray into the online world.. of course, not many jws are going to be getting a computer or much else for christmas right?.
kinda-strange for me to forget about such a big thing like that eh?!
it's pretty good though to have moved on so that the jw indoctrinated mindset isn't the first thing that springs to mind.. hope you're all having a great christmas and wherever you are in the recovery process that you feel a little bit better today than you did yesterday, more free and relaxed than you did last year and looking forward to your new life in 2011.. there's going to be lots of changes coming for this site hopefully in the next week or so and probably continuing over the next year.
Thank you, Simon, for your good wishes, same to you, your wife and children, and to posters and lurkers on JWN. An obvious sign that I have broken free a bit further from the JW mindset, too, is that I have, quite spontaneously, wished happy end of the year festivities to colleagues at the office. Even my best half, who still attends WE meetings, had such a craving for a somptuous Xmas eve dinner, as if she wanted to write off a lifetime of frustration in this regard, to the amusement of myself and our children.
Thank you a lot for your hard work to keep this site running, and a happy new year to moderators. Special thought for Grace and better health to Snowbird. Hope that Purplesofa, whose posts I've not read for a while, is all right. Greetings to CoCo who polishes such fine pieces of literature, Nancy Drew and all accomplices of Word of the day, Four words at a time, etc.
to scully!!!!
every time i screw up.
i call her.i know she is a very busy girl.
That is most likely because you deserve the good friends you have, Grace.
finally, i get an answer.. that's a relief.. doctor hopes medication and diet will be sufficient.. i hope so, too.. syl.
My sincere wishes for your prompt recovery, Sylvia.
big hug for you!
i am glad you are okay.
you are a strong woman.. so sorry grace.
Grace, happy to read that it all went well for you. Haven't you got a small bip caller around your neck, that when you press it, someone in your neighbourhood, who is atuned to it, is alerted ? many elderly persons living on their own have that appliance in France.
i found this interesting information in the 2010 report on international religious freedom.
the government has taken steps to integrate non-catholic religious groups through the foundation for pluralism and coexistence.
the foundation provides funds to minority and religious groups to promote religious freedom and dialogue.
Here is a link from 2006 which shows that when they see an opportunity to promote their agenda, WTS leaders are not very particular about mingling with marginal organisations under the guise of religious freedom
