i saw a very long thread on answerbag answering the above question in which there are several jws responding and denyng vehemently what is said in the question.
in some places being quite rude to people.
the dialogue highlighted yellow is me, the text highlighted blue is someone who is agreeing that the jws did preach this.
Maybe not ashamed, but I have though MANY times over my life, how darn lucky I was I didn't marry a dub. I shudder to think.
Was Malawi after '75? I remember feeling like "if only we had our chance to prove ourselves like those brothers in Malawi". Geez I was a dumb kid!

When I was recently out of "the truth", at about the age of 24, I was having one of these conversations with a friend of mine. Very educated guy. I was on the believing side. Finally, feeling agitated and fearful, I told him we needed to stop talking about it. Because it was far more dangerous for him to convince me there was no god, than it would be for me to convince him there was. I've since changed my mind on that, but I think there is a nugget there. Believers are afraid to let doubt creep in. They must condemn and scoff at non believers. To do otherwise is too scary.

I'm 95% sure that I was there, I can only remember a talk that focused on '75 and that it started with a ticking clock. For years, that's all I have been able to pull out of the memory banks. Since we always went to Dodger Stadium, I have to assume we were at that talk. I just remember feeling .............hell, I remember feeling guilty! Somewhat fearful.
I would have been a boy crazy young girl at the time. I clearly remember the guy I had a crush on while working in the food service tent

I would have been 14 when that talk was given, and Dodger Stadium was our assembly point. I've been trying for years to dredge up more details of a talk I vaguely remember hearing at that time. It started with nothing but the very dramatic sound of a clock ticking. I wonder if this was it. It was scary, it was urgent, and it made all the "trappings" of life seem a pointless waste of time.

You are not being logical, or accessing facts. But I'm getting the impression that you enjoy these outrageous notions.
hello friends!.
once in a while you hear about fundie atheists, and i have desided to become one.
but i need a bit of advice.. you see, apparently the fundie atheists are as messed up as their worst religious "fundie" counterparts, so i got some expectations to live up to.. i have desided to focus on how i should raise my child, since the religious dickery i hate the most has to do with how children are raised.
The original inventors of the gods we know, are long since dust.

It has recently been found that neanderthals cared for the sick and disabled among them. Was that before Jesus?

BTW, while we're being honest, your name makes me feel ignorant and your post count makes me feel like I have no life. cheers.
Ohhhh I was just trying not to rain on your mini lovefest with the christians.
