Listening to him speak and having read nearly every one of his books I think it's pretty hard not to come to the conclusion Bart Erhman is an atheist.
He's disingenuous and knows which side his bread is buttered on.

Article to discuss or argue over: Buddha, Abraham, Jesus and Muhammed: Larger-than-life historic figures or largely legends?
by AndersonsInfo ini've posted a link to an article that contains important food for thought.
as we search for information to free our minds and hearts of cult-like thinking which entails being able to critically think, we need to ponder research that is available to help us to make important decisions.
we need to allow ourselves to consider other possibilities, something that jw’s are discouraged from doing.

Whatever's going on it seems to be darn quiet out there!! Perhaps everyone else is either in hiding (maybe for good reason) or have been eliminated already!
If you look at life on earth, it seems to be the norm that dominant life forms exploit everything/one else.
Maybe it's for the best that we don't find them...... or they don't find us 🤫👽😬

By pressing refresh avatar you can keep clicking till you find a monster you want. Or you can upload your own image using the upload button. Have a go...

Anyone watch Evans video on the Bethalite who left?
by mickbobcat ini don't know if he was a regular betalite but either way he left and in the interview he says some of the gb are very intelligent.
the whole thing came across to me as this guy may have just left and is still a little wonky about talking against the gb.
i don't buy from all i have seen that any of the gb are very intelligent.. [video removed].

I'd hazard a guess that Marc Saundersons SAT scores were higher than average and if he'd been allowed he would have gone to college and I can imagine David Splane as an accountant somewhere in another life(although maybe I'm giving him a little too much credit😂 ) but other than that I don't think we have too many earth shattering geniuses up there.
For native guile, though, and I don't mean this as a compliment, I don't think you can beat Stephen Lett. There's something about that man that I just don't trust. I think he's a money grubbing, paedophile defending hypocrite.

Dimwits running the show
by punkofnice ini often found that there were some real dimwits that thought they were marvellous.
a sort of dunning kruger spectrum going on.. donkeys leading princes.
just like our corrupt and retarded politicians.

He said, 'No. It's to stop people putting hose-pipes through the letter box and flooding the hall.'
😳I only got a B in GCSE physics but won't water go through the 'holes' in a cage pretty easily??!

Imagine if there had been a couple of Trump supporters who happened to be in the area? Heck, just a couple of conservative white guys.
Do you imagine he would have said "oh no, it wasn't them, I actually faked it", or would that grinning racist piece of shit have happily seen innocent people's lives ruined?
Exactly! We often see those we're pretty sure are guilty walk free.
Why? Because "beyond reasonable doubt" is the price we pay for erring on the side of caution in ensuring the innocent are never found guilty.
So it makes sense - if protection of the innocent is our priority - that those that make a FALSE accusation should face the highest penalty!

I have come to the conclusion that a lot of JWs don't care if the end is near.
by mickbobcat ini was in the cult for years about 40. fourth gen born in cult member or for me ex cult member.
i have seen so many cult members who don't seem to really care if the end is near or not.
they are much more concerned with the idea that this is their social network and they need and or want it just the way it is.

that he had carried on being faithful even though he had been let down by the promises made on Jehovah's behalf by the WT during that era
Black sheep They phrased it like that?😳Wow. It's like they just don't care if it's true or not.
One thing that has changed that I think is quite telling. Witnesses used to laugh or shrug it off if you challenged their beliefs. Now they get angry.
