i'm probably going to say some things here that will disappoint many.
there are some that may look back over the years and say "man i really blew it" i'm not writing the following to scold for failures, but rather to help those who are young enough to put into practice what god wills for their life, and also to those of us who are in our middle years that still have time to change some things, in order to please god and find a peace that only being in his will can bring.
first let me say that god didn't create man for you.
God made woman to sit on the sidelines and cheer when a man succeeds
Every intelligent 21st century adult can easily see that the advice in the OP is utter garbage, but at least it is honest.
Believers usually get their ethics from secular values and then dishonestly pretend they got them from Jesus. People like STT have the gall to read the bible and say it like it is. God does think that women are second class citizens.
Religion poisons everything and STT is not going to water it down.
we had a bad experience with watchtower trying to infiltrate our forums.
let this story be a warning for all you guys here.
if you value your privacy do not ever send your real contact details to anyone, even if you trust them (because their accounts could be hacked or accessed by their relatives - and yes, this happened to people i know several times already).
Very interesting thank you. What a bunch of liars they are.
It is a good reminder to never share your private information with people you don't know.
can't believe it - gb is currently second in the medal table, with more golds and silvers combined than even china.
given the size of the nation it's an incredible achievement and we have won in some sports where other countries typically dominate.
i can't imagine we will stay in second but i am happy to enjoy the moment.. well done to the whole of team gb!.
It's an outstanding achievement.
It has all changed for the better since Sport England began targeting funding towards elite athletes. Most schools also got over their ridiculous "everybody is a winner - non-competitive sports" foolishness.
just thought id let you all in on some info i found on northeasttruth.com.
that magical moment where the moon blocks out the sun!
but only just enough to perfectly cover the suns disc, whilst still allowing us to see the corona of light and other electromagnetic forces radiating from it.. this only happens because the moon diameter is exactly 1/400th the size of the suns and is positioned at exactly 1/400th of the distance between earth and the sun!so, when we see it from the surface of earth, we are in the only place this can ever be seen, at the only time it could ever happen.
At first glance I thought that link was MARK COCK RING.
How appropriate that would be since the OP is a load of bollocks.
You're looking at a collection of numbers and seeing faces in them. Invisible, imaginary faces - Nathan Natas
This is exactly the sort of silliness that got Russell fixated on the length of the corridors in the great pyramid of Egypt. When Rutherford has to change the dates to 1925 he magically added some inches to corridor.
anyone else also hold this view or understand it at least, or do you feel the need to argue that both can in no way coexist?.
Vidqun - Of course that will be your response and you will be wrong.
Bioenergetics is about setting up the conditions that existed in the ancient environment of an alkaline vent and passively observing life emerge.
It will prove that life is a process and not a "thing". It will show that your god is not the source of life.
When it happens you and other theists will continue to sing "we can't hear you"
i just joined this sight today.
i'm hoping to find people here with similar experiences or have experience with similar situations or just any advise or feedback.. first.
my quick life story.. i was born into jw.
Welcome to the forum and thanks for sharing your story.
So much is happening in WT world right now and this is a good place to keep up with the latest news. Well done on going to see your dad. I hope you can continue to build a friendship with him. Only you know about your situation but please take it easy regarding sharing bad news about the JWs with your dad if there is an opportunity to get some sort of relationship with him.
Look forward to your posts.
jehovahs witnesses think that just the bible is proof that god exists but they are wrong.
there is another mode for how he exists.
now we all know many scientists who are creationists now weren’t creationists until they examined the evidence for themselves.
93% of the members of the National Academy of Sciences are atheist.
Knowledge is toxic to faith.
look, now before i speak, i want to say that it is very okay for someone to not believe.
are they hurting anyone?
killing anyone?
@cofty always gotta get a shot in..."being superstitious" Simply saying "nobody hates you" would suffice. - Hadriel
Theism is indistinguishable from other superstitions.
1 - If you walk under a ladder/see a black cat/break a mirror/spill salt etc. bad things will happen to you.
2 - If you don't assent to certain irrational propositions about a dead Jewish carpenter bad things will happen to you.
What is the difference?

No scientist believes in god for scientific reasons.
all us creationists try to do is offer true evidence that the one and only god is out there watching and looking down on us.
we present that certain scientists know the truth about god and that he is everything that we see from trees, life, weather, the air we breath, and even the most simple molecules.
but of course you atheists reject it because it is your nature to not be humble and see god because you want to rule your own life.
Personally I have no objection to theists preaching. Even if they don't engage in conversation it provides an opportunity to demonstrate how vacuous faith is.
