I find it interesting that Terry himself, the man I questioned, didn't resort to sarcasm and name calling like those who defended him, even though they weren't even the ones being questioned.

Terry's Amazing Stories
by Blue Grass inam i the only one who think's a lot of the amazing stories terry come up with are fabricated or completely untrue?
every week he tells us how he by chance ran into a jw, mormon, evangilcial, etc.
and comes up with witty answers every time to counter every point they make and than have them running in fear.

Stayed up all night, see it is a cult now.
by gutted ini really needed to find a place to write this as i don't believe i can talk with anyone else about my account, perhaps it is similar to a lot of yours.. last night for whatever reason i said i would go online and look up information on jws.
i have been raised as a jw all my life and baptized the last few years.
i looked at www.freeminds.org and www.sixscreensofthewatchtower.com and couldn't believe how easily the whole of my lifes teachings were refuted.. i can't stop my brain from running, bs just in regards to theology alone (1914, paradise earth, celebrations etc.

What is your purpose for what appears an attempt at scaring away a newbie right back into the WTS?
My post didn't really have a purpose. I was just angry that he called me an asshole for no reason.

Please note that Blue Grass has also harrassed and insulted beloved long time posters of this board
I've insulted many people, but I've never harrassed anyone, nor has anyone ever claimed to have been harrassed by me.
Yeah Blue Grass came after me one time too.
Come on, I like you Garyneal. I attacked your belief in the trinity, but I like you as a person.

WOW!! I am just shocked!! Bluegrass, where is all the hostility coming from???
And bluegrass, I'm shocked and appalled at your behavior.Bluegrass, that was absolutely uncalled-for.
I was being real nice to this guy. I recommended two great books from Ray Franz that would help him with his situation and tried to warn him that there are some atheist on this board who would use this opportunity to destroy his faith in God and than he calls me asshole for absolutely no reason. Needless to say that really pissed me off.

death unnatural?? whats with that?
by wavvy inmy mother, like all the dubs, excels at dropping casual sentences here and there designed to suck me back into the borg.... her latest subtle (not) attempt to use my father's death as the drawing card was to send an sms saying only: "death is so unnatural".. of course i remember all those public talks, so i know exactly where she's coming from: we were made to live forever so no wonder death is so painful for us to deal with.. but honestly, what planet are they on????
death unnatural?
on the planet earth death is the most natural thing ever!

Does that mean the carrot I just ate will still be alive when I shit it out tomorrow?
Just because something grows doesn't mean it's alive. I use to get pimples that grew pretty large, didn't mean they were living.

if death is not natural, why has NATURE never, EVER produced a living thing that DIDN'T die?
Your question already assumes that the account in the Bible of how death entered the world is untrue.

It is an inherent part of the life cycle! Plants and animals must die daily in order to sustain our lives. A seed must die in the earth in order that the
plant can germinate. All things die in order to feed the cycle of life.
This is simply not true. Why do you think plants and animals need to die for humans to live? People can live perfectly healthy lives on a vegetarian diet. Also what benefit for us would it be for trees that produces fruit to die?
A seed must die in the earth in order that the plant can germinate. All things die in order to feed the cycle of life.
Seeds aren't living organisms so they don't die when you plant them. I don't see how someone's death feeds the "cycle of life" (whatever that is). Are you saying because worms eat the flesh of dead bodies humans need to die?

I might add one more "must read" to the list and that is Richard Friedman's Who Wrote the Bible?
Not sure why you're recommending this book. Gutted requesting information about the watchtower and jehovah's witnesses and that book has absolutely nothing to do with either.

You so have to read "Crisis Of Conscience" and "In Search Of Christian Freedom" both by Raymond Franz. Nothing you'll read on the internet can match the value of those two books.
P.S I just want to warn you that the vast majority of people on this board are atheist so after they finish love bombing you they'll start their normal routine of bible bashing and trying to convert you into an atheist. They like to take advantage of people like you who just found out the watchtower is false and try to use that to convince you the Bible is false.
