It’s Official: UFO-Worshiping Raëlians Are No Longer Zionists
by freemindfade incaught this in a news feed and absolutely had to read it, first of all i don't know where to start with how awesome this is.
ok lets start with the name.
heeb... thats the news source... i wont say any more on that.... the saddest part of this is what i read of this wacky sci-fi religion, as bat shit crazy as it is, it still makes more sense than jehovahs witnesses.. without further waiting.... http://heebmagazine.com/its-official-ufo-worshiping-raelians-are-no-longer-zionists/55304.

Quality Thinking - Warning: Long Post Ahead
by Viviane inrecently, several threads have had some debate about logic, evidence, critical thinking and skepticism.
i wanted to write a post discussing those things, hopefully to clarify what those things are, why they are important and how to use those tools.
first, logic, at its core, is simply a method for how to reason validly, how to draw conclusions based on a premise.

Thank you. Who advocates challenging every opinion?
No one here that I have seen but it seems to be part of the internet/message board culture. For example if I start a thread even remotely involving politics, philosophy, or sociology and claim an opinion I'd better be ready for a three page debate with someone. The someone changes but the debating never does.

A theory is a model that explains natural processes in some cases there are competing models or theories that could explain how something works. An example of this is Physics where there are many mathematical models that can be used to explain the same process. So far there is no competing theory to evolution so although it may be tweaked here and there it is accepted to be generally true. -

To the OP while what you said is true but I do find it tiresome when every opinion must be challenged, debated and picked over. I find this to be the case when it comes to internet message boards. I may have an opinion that I've picked up through personal experience. Many times I could also support it through references and studies but I'd rather not, time is too valuable.Link +1 / -0 -

Big Concepts That JWs Won't Even Allow Themselves To Consider
by JW_Rogue inbecause of the belief that the bible is quite literally the word god jws must shut out many logical concepts and theories.
it's not just evolution although that is a large one.
i know when i was in there were certain concepts that made sense to me but i would try not to think about them too much.
