  by punkofnice in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  .........although sometimes slight differences.. bear in mind i am in the uk and we don't go a bundle on therapy and i can't afford it anyway.. here is the dream manifest content as best i can recall.............. i am in a town or city.

  i come across a shop which inside is more like an indoor market, sometimes a cavern.

  it sells marvel comics.

  But I had one of my own that I decifered very well

  I dreamed I was in the WTS version of paradise

  When I woke up, I realized that was Hell

  Couldn't find a smoked ham nowhere

  Religion VS Atheism and the decline of ethics and morals

  by EndofMysteries in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  being back in college after leaving the borg, one of the required classes for a degree at my college is ethics.

  after learning a few things, i am curious where morality and ethics is heading for the future of humanity.

  i wish i could find the source again, but several weeks ago i recalled reading a transcript of a very old document that talked about when christianity was being spread in europe, it brought civility and community.

  Apostatethunder said :

  .

  " A lot of people seem to forget that our culture is christian........ "

  .

  " Those who are not particularly rational , emotional, or spiritual, don't like to be at the bottom of the pyramid where they belong so they build another one where they can be on top without being particularly smart , humane, or spiritually developed........."

  .

  " But religion is our tradition , It explains our culture , and it forms our values, Without it, you reject thousands of years of accumulated wisdom......."

  .

  .

  Apostathunder , I believe you made the same " justifications " as the Southern Slave Master

  who forced their beliefs on the African slave

  .

  .

  Apostate thunder also said :

  .

  " Won't understand your own culture and heritage and will have whatever values suit you or somebody else manufactures for you....."

  .

  .

  Exactly

  I couldn't even begin to tell you what tribe my ancestors were from

  or what thier religious practices were

  .

  .

  Because those who believed as you do

  thought it would be better to force thier " Christian " ( And I use that word lightly ) culture and beliefs on others

  .

  .

  And ever scince I can remember my family has practiced

  not the religion of our African ancestors

  .

  .

  But what some one else had forced upon them

  and what my ancestos learned to embrace though the centuries

  here in the west

  .

  .

  It's a cryin' shame that folks still assume that someone is of the lesser because of thier education level, culture or belief

  " Not surprising the ten most religious states are in the south "_____DJS

  Exactly DJS

  Here in the states, It was the Southern slave masters who use slavery as a means

  to force thier religious beliefs on others as a means to control them in what was a lucrative business

  a the time
