  There is science that prove God exists

  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.

  Science makes belief in god unnecessary not impossible - reality does the rest.

  Just a reminder about voting

  by Simon in

  1. forum
  2. announcements

  there appear to be some people who are of the mistaken opinion that endlessly clicking the like or dislike button 20x will mean 20x votes.. it doesn't !!!.

  only one vote is ever counted.

  1 user, 1 vote, each post.

  I would love to know how many "dislikes" I have earned.

  Let's have a league table :)

  I have read the book. I have it in front of me. He could not have been any more explicit that he really means absolutely NOTHING! No time, no space, no laws of physics absolutely nothing. He dedicates the prologue to addressing all the possible semantic objections he could think of.

  You see what you want to see.

  Ok Prologos you should email Lawrence Krauss and let him know that he doesn't mean what he clearly says.

  "Nothing" - in this case no space, no time, no anything! - is unstable." - Lawrence Krauss

  all these writers, Krauss, Penrose, Carroll imply that there was time and energy in the "void" preceding the big bang - Prologos

  
  "The lesson is clear: quantum gravity not only appears to allow universes to be created from nothing - meaning, in this case, I emphasise, the absence of space and time - it may require them. "Nothing" - in this case no space, no time, no anything! - is unstable." - A Universe From Nothing, Lawrence Krauss 2012

  Sharia Law in the US, it's coming folks.

  my question, why would one immigrate to the west and refuse to adopt the western cultural?.

  if you believe our way of life is so degenerated why bring your family to this place.. in a very close 5-4 vote, the city of irving ruled to back the texas state bill banning foreign.

  law from the state.

  it would be racist to make laws targeting one faith over others

  Please take care not to conflate religions and faiths.

  I have utter contempt for Islam. I am not racist.

  It's completely harmless and voluntary even amongst Muslims. - VI

  You could not be more wrong. That is exactly like saying JWs judicial procedures are completely voluntary and harmless.

  I have watched undercover recordings of sharia courts where a woman who has suffered long term physical abuse was interrogated about what she was doing to make her husband angry and sent home to try to be a better wife.

  Sharia courts are about institutionalised misogyny.

  Woman's Purpose

  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.

  Warning: Watchtower computer dept. registers accounts on Ex-JW sites, coerces people to divulge their personal details

  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.
