The Bible God has not been around for about 2000 years. Maybe he's in the privy (a la 1 Kings 18), just like Baal was.
I'll believe in God when he makes his/her identity clear. Until then, I don't care about an absent God.

Atheists - Please answer this
by Nellie ini guess i lean more towards an agnostic point of view; though if asked, i will still identify myself as a christian.
why, i'm not really sure if i'm honest with myself.
it all boils down to how i feel about the earth and all of the inhabitants thereon.

"Watchmen" the worst comic book movie ever - I walked out!
by Witness 007 init tried to be dramatic and different but you just don't know which direction this movie is taking.
i haven't walked out of a film ever, but i just couldn't stand it anymore....the first hour and a half went no-where!
they try to make complex interesting characters but fail completely...anyone else see it?.

What's the matter with some male nudity.. especially if its accompanied with some female nudity? Its more realistic than when they jsut show the female... I mean, both are naked, lol

Understand the Witness mindset before we blast them with facts
by BonaFide intelling a witness "hey, all the stuff you teach is bs" may be correct, but does that approach work?
i have been reading on here how several have tried that direct method with their family or friends.
it didnt work for me, and now i am having more and more success by repeating that i support the organization and the faithful slave, then i bring up "an interesting point".

I got my mom out with the direct method. "The WTS is full of BS." She agreed (eventually) and she is now an agnostic, somewhat deist.

Hey V,
I posted about a similar point earlier... that 2000 WT created serious doubts in me as I saw that the anointed were increasing...
I can't believe they repeat the lie in 2009... that is a blatant lie!!!!!
Congrats on the vid... it's awesome!

Talked with Old High School buddy after 30 years - I apologized
by flipper inthis was something i was wanting to do for a long time .
i knew this friend as far back as elementary school, we played tennis together in high school , played music and sang together in his band a little.
a very nice guy who i was close to until age 19. but because of my jehovah's witness upbringing it changed at 19.. long story short, although my witness parents allowed me to associate with this friend and other non-witness friends, in 1979, my then fanatic witness fiance laid the law down to me that we could not have any non-witness friends at our wedding.

Yes I had a similar experience with some former classmates I've found via FaceBook...
So much love in the world, so much hate in the "Truth"
