well, i am gonna have to go again because my wife wants to go this year.

she missed last year because she was sick and was so depressed about it for a month after because of the guilt her stupid family laid upon my poor darling.

last night she was visiting her dad (the only one who didn't guilt her) and he asked if she was going to go this year.

A belief in an afterlife is the most dangerous of all beliefs

this is an essay i am posting on freeminds... i'm posting it here too for good measure.... it is well known that the 9-11 attackers had a belief in an afterlife.

as the story goes, apparently they believed that after they would die gloriously, having killed thousands of american infidels, they would be taken into paradise and would enjoy the company of 72 virgins.. .

i think it is quite easy to see the connection between the belief in such an afterlife and the nefarious deeds that these men committed.

Did Noah even exist?
by LouBelle in
1. jw

i'm shamelessly jumping on the noah bandwagon - or ark - whatever.

considering how many view the bible (basic information before leaving earth....tm) do you think that there was a real noah?

my answer: i don't..

I'm an ex-dub in Dorset, England, which isn't a very good place to be an ex-dub

most people here in the poole/bournemouth area of dorset (and i know i'm generalising) are not very... well, inquiring minds seem to be an aquired taste around these parts.

i mean, there are lots of intelligent people, but they tend to be the ones who steer clear of 'the troof'.

those who are in 'the troof' around here don't tend to have the neccessary brain capacity required to realise they are in a cult & thus they don't leave in great numbers, & those who do leave tend to do so for shallow reasons (they want sex) as opposed to my reason for leaving (i realised it's all a bag of shite).

So let me get this straight

a web site called jehovah-witness.net where x-jw's and jw's who pretend to be jw's come to chat about how bad jehovah witnesses are and how they brain washed them etc, would it not be more productive to move on and forget than to let something most of you obviously hate take so much of your time and effort.. for some being a jw is about not being part of the world, what other religion is there that is as moral as a jw.

i am d'fed but i belive that jw's are the true religion.

sure some of them can be self righteous pricks but there imperfect just like anyone else,we all need to focus on us and not worry about what there doing because we can't change them.. .
