Make August 2009 the dawn of the "mass exodus"...the beginning of the end of the Watchtower org!
by koolaid-man inthe watchtower organization is without doubt doing everything they can to keep their business afloat.
they are at a critical point in their ever so blemished present condition.
there is simply too much genuine criticism from not only those on the outside but, also from those on the inside.

Are Most Scientists Atheists?
by passwordprotected injames leuba conducted a survey of scientists in 1916. they were asked a whether they believed in a god who actively communicates with humanity, to whom humans can pray and expect an answer.. to believe in this sort of god would mean you were a theist.
if you're a deist, or agnostic, you believe there's a god but he's not necessarily interested in humans and we wouldn't pray to this god.. the results of this survey revealed that roughly 40% of scientists believe in this sort of god, making them theists.
40% didn't, making them either deists/agnostics or atheists.

Going back to the original question: maybe it has to do with the type of science. I'm reading a lot about Quantum Pysics and it's different. It seems to be proving more that their must be something out there that cares because of what they are discovering in that field. Just thought I'd throw that in there...........wf
One of our neighbours and friends is a professor of physics, specialising in semiconductors. He's the youngest professor in this field in the UK. He's also an elder in a local evangelical church. Interestingly, his church is classed as charasmatic, so they believe in the power and gifts of the Holy Spirit.
Not that this proves much...

We're thinking of having Besty disfellowshipped from Atheism for his lack of faith and commitment.
Heheh.

It seems to me you want to group all non-believers together in one group to make it convenient to hate them.
No offense to you personally, but that's a pot calling the kettle black moment. All religion is evil and is a virus that needs to be rooted out, yeah? Can you spell h-a-t-e m-e-s-s-a-g-e? It seems some want to group all believers together to make it easier to hate them.
I concede this may not be your personal world view, but it's one that's expounded by one of the three most intelligent people on the planet who happens to espouse atheistic evangelism.

You're the most reasonable atheist I've run across yet, though, Besty. There's hope for you yet ;-)

As my interest wanes............
by AK - Jeff inall things jw and xjw and even xxjw are beginning to bore me.
tonight, in an effort to stimulate my interest, i cruised back thru threads of the past month or so.
while i found a couple topics of mild interest, and a couple more in which i found it worth effort to make personal comment, i was mostly bored.. i have come to grips with my past religious history.

We were talking about JWN today in my household and we realise that this site doesn't really offer us what we once needed anymore.

Religion - systemised worship of higher power
Belief in supernatural - faith based understanding that intelligence exists beyond the confines of planet earth
Spirituality - deeply held desire to form a connection with entitites larger in scope than fellow humans
Those seem like both reasonable definitions and reasonable concepts. Shame some folks want them wiped out.

Oh, Ninja. Those scientists are very, very intelligent. They have high IQs which equates with them knowing what's best for us. So, it's probably nothing to worry about.
