In the case of Islamic extremism, JW's could be a chemo for that cancer. Convert from a religion that has a potential to turn people into violent extremist to JW. Then the next step is learning TTATT. Then they are home free. -

I was wondering why I hadn't seen anything from her in awhile. So sad to hear this.

This experiment reveals how the outrageous practices of the WT keep going on (and other social issues)
by EndofMysteries inthis is a really cool experiment that shows how not thinking for yourself will make you do things and how herd mentality may dominate many of your choices.
apply this to the wt, to trends, to political agendas and social issues, etc.

Can you prove that our entire universe and existence is not a computer simulation?
by EndofMysteries inif you were a computer programmer and you were to create a simulated automated world, that would constantly evolve and self run after initial designs.
first you would have to code the rules, laws, and core elements of this world.
while this is being coded, the program is not run yet, so none of it exists.

Corollary question that's just as valid... Can you prove our universe is not just a molecule swirling in a unicorn toot?
Or a brain cell?

December Study Watchtower - Preparing to Reveal a New Light?
by The Searcher inthe jw/wtbt's anti-scriptural & anti-christ teaching that "a person's own death wipes out their sins" (based on their lie that romans 6:7 is to be interpreted literally) appears to have had a little wedge inserted into it.
despite making numerous accurate references to the fact that 1st century christians had figuratively died to sin, the svengalis at the top of the brooklyn pyramid point-blank refuse to discuss/cite/quote romans 6:7 and its true meaning.
page 10, par.

What about Hebrews 9:27, doesn't seem to show that anybody gets a free pass from at least one death..... "27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment

All we can do is create simulations of intelligence. Mostly it's signal processing, pattern recognition and fast recall, not real 'intelligence' and reasoning.
Are you saying it would be impossible to replicate the human mind in a computer? Our minds are signal processing, pattern recognition, and fast recall as well. When born, we receive input and instructions by way of learning. We use patterns and analysis to make decisions. Our 'feelings' are based on chemicals such as dopamine, serotonin, etc being released in response to certain actions and conditions. If a computer program was made with the same conditions as the human mind at birth, I see no reason why this would not be possible, and then it could have intelligence and reasoning that surpass us.

Of course no one can prove we are not in a computer simulation, just like no can prove that unicorns don't exist.
The question is, if we are part of a computer simulation so real that no one involved can tell the difference between that and actual reality, what difference does it make whether we are or are not?It would not make a difference, but if we ourselves are part of a simulation, then this is reality for us.

When you actually have the foundation you turn it on.
Now there is a big empty universe. Depending if you have things in place yet or not. Then comes creating genetic code. You put the first life forms in motion so the process from there on is completely automated. To save time, you copy this genetic code and build up from it. The very basic life forms were the elementary phase and you recycle what you can of the code for other life forms and variations. You program in the ability for it to self alter and adapt to conditions and change over time. The highest form has such an advanced level of AI they can become self aware and have the ability to use the resources on this world to create all manner of things. In the end you'll never physically be in their world and they'll never physically be in your world either.
What is to stop us right now from being able to create such an advanced program with AI? If we will be able to do this, how would we know if we are not ourselves part of one?

There is no such thing as Agnosticism. Agnostics do not exist!
by nicolaou inmany here seem to believe that the position of agnosticism is somehow more reasonable than theism or atheism.
nonsense!
it is a misconception to believe that belief or non-belief in the existence of god/s are the two extremes which glare at each other over the fence of agnosticism.

When people say that you can't prove there is no god they can only say that by being as vague as possible about the words "prove" and "god". Define "god" and of course we can prove it is nothing but a human construct.
Take god and religion out of the discussion and instead replace it with intelligent design. It seems many think that intelligent design automatically equates to a god of any past belief, as if it's not one of those then there is no other possibility. If you still want the word there, I'll define god as, "the conscious intelligence that engineered life on Earth". I believe genetic engineering alone proves this to be a possibility. I completely dismiss the excuse that if it was another biological form that created "Earth life" that doesn't answer the origin of their life, etc,etc. It doesn't matter if "our" origin is the start of it all or further on the chain, if there is a chain, you must move up it to get to the original source. Ignoring parts if they turn to be true because it doesn't reach the final answer looked for just means you'll never move up the chain.

People hate God?
by looter init is a pain that certain individuals pride themselves on hating god, who created everything.
like it's understandable that you choose to not believe in him because of your selfishness or thinking skills but to hate him is forcing it a bit.
i'm very thankful that those such as myself have the courage to believe in the lord.

And if you actually said to everyone that you hated God, you'd face prison, fines, and maybe even death.
