"if it were really a matter of indifference what we belive, then we might just as well build our bridges of cardboard as of stone, or inject a tenth of a gram of morphine into a patient instead of a hundredth, or take teargas as a narcotic instead of ether; but the intellectual anarchists themselves would strongly repudiate any such practical applications of their theory.".
intellectual honesty requires a match between the real world; the practical world where things either work or do not work at all.....and the state of mind inside your head.. .
I like this conversation because I'm not a born-in I've made alot of crazy decisions in my life looking for a dream. I've tried it all meditation groups, communes, Jw's, radical groups looking for the answer. I've dumped the dream because I haven't a clue what's really going on so I'm living w/o a safety net and I'm okay. I'm tired of making excuses for a god who supposedly cares for us I don't see it. We don't even know what really took place on this planet in the last 10,000 years. Now it's archeology and DNA that fascinates me and My theory is that it's just as easy to wonder about things in your nice apt a block from the ocean as you listen to music and sip on your drink.
distance from jehovah (not jesus).

The organization acts like they have all the answers and the only hotline to a god who holds all the cards. The reality is they are deceitful liars and manipulators and they have nothing to offer. Their so called guidance to the "best life" is worthless. I wish they would crumble to the ground so they would stop ruining people's lives.
about 15 of 'us' - all but one a former jw, and most either familiar with this board or currently posters here - attended the play in the chicago theater district last night.
what a hoot!
according to the geniuses [the same guys who did south park] who were behind the production, it targetted mormons on the way to poking fun at all religious delusion.. it was a great play, great actors, and wonderful props.
WOW!
That was really something else
why am i closing all the threads.
i am so sorry if i dont give the right answer.

Did they really turn you into an ELF ?
If there is it's got a strange agenda
why am i closing all the threads.
i am so sorry if i dont give the right answer.
The elves took Grace
to their secret place
they gave her wine
and she felt fine
they played a special elfan game
and grace would never be the same.
why am i closing all the threads.
i am so sorry if i dont give the right answer.
