35Bible is good if we look for implied truth
by venus inthumbs-up gesture doesn’t covey much if we see only four fingers closed and thumb standing upward.
but if we look for the implied meaning, then it is a positive, informal signal indicating a job well done, and saying ‘keep it up.’.
similarly, biblical accounts don’t convey much if we see them as mere accounts.

The many BK evangelists that have plagued the forum either ignore questions about their membership or outright lie about it. I have PMs from some if them admitting as much afte they were exposed. Abiather was one of the prominent ones a while ago.
Sometimes more than one person uses the same account. The standard of English language varies depending on who is writing. The Venus account mostly has good grammar but recently a couple of posts have clearly been written by somebody less familiar with the language.
If somebody was posting about paradise, gentile times, blood, political neutrality and signs of the times we could safely assume they were a JW even if they denied it. For similar reasons it is obvious the Venus account is being used by BK members.
The cult goes under literally dozens of names in order to create deniability.

If mathematics teacher made a mistake, would it mean mathematics itself is wrong!
by venus inmany people point to the irrationality in the depiction of god by the religions and their scriptures, hence jump into the bottomless pit of atheism.
in either camp, god is not a factor because religion is only a means that misrepresents god, hence religionists themselves are atheists (literally, those who live without god).
it is like saying there exists no earth because you found out your friend who taught earth is flat is wrong; or it is like saying mathematics itself is wrong because you found out your mathematics teacher made a mistake.

Reading Venus' crap regarding evolution is like playing creationism bingo. You only have a few more tropes to go for a full set.
Either you are a troll or your ignorance really is off the scale.

Venus your ignorance of evolution makes sensible conversation impossible.
You have never read a science book in your entire life have you? You get your factoids from your BK cult resources.
Maybe somebody has the time and patience to help educate you. I don't but you could start here...

jw's and Mormon's make more atheist than any other groups combined
It may be true. Unlike 99% of 'people of faith' many JWs and Mormons had to fearlessly apply facts and reason in order to escape a controlling cult. If they go on to apply those same critical thinking skills to all the claims of theism it will lead to atheism.
The vast majority of believers have never faced up to the failings of their religion because it doesn't demand much from them.
Of course many ex-JWs lose their nerve and stop at some sort of alternative faith system.

This conversation is utterly pointless until Venus - yet another dishonest evangelist for the Brahma Kumaris cult - defines exactly what she/he means by "god".
The word "god" is utterly meaningless. As soon as a believer describes their god it is child's-play to prove it does not exist.
Please don't play silly games with a dishonest evangelist for a life-destroying eastern apocalyptic cult.

Brahma Kumaris listed as dangerous cult.

Venus you are just the latest in a long list of BK cult proselytizers who have pestered the forum in recent years.
They all lie about their membership of the cult, I have PMs from one of your forebears apologising for the behavior of some of his colleagues.
Your cult is evil and dehumanizing.
Please fuck off.

God is not the creator
by venus inevery theory (including darwin’s) primarily proves someone has to design a theory; every product primarily proves someone has to design it.
when neil armstrong and buzz aldrin landed on the moon it primarily proved intelligence of many people had to design that moon-mission.. 1) if every machine primarily proves someone designed it, then a much more complex, wonderful, and living machine with reproductive feature would mean the same: someone with corresponding ability, of higher energy, designed it because effect explains the cause just like harvest explains the sowing (whether you saw sowing or not).
science shows human body is like a complex machinery with many departments/systems (such as respiratory, digestive, cardiovascular/circulatory, renal/urinary, endocrine, nervous, musculoskeletal, integumentary/exocrine, lymphatic/immune, reproductive etc.
