by Christ Alone ini just wanted to take a survey.
let's not let this get into the same old same old debate of atheism vs belief.

See thats where i get confused with the definisions... In response to charlie but really anyone and everyone, its hard to distinqish between agnostic and athiest in this respect:
If someone dosent believe in god but WOULD believe in god if there was evidance what does that make them?

Tell me if this is a stupid idea.
by DATA-DOG inyou know how you sometimes you are going about your day and then an idea hits you?
you say to yourself, " what a great idea!!".
then you think to yourself that maybe it isn't so great?

Nope. The basic premise is " the org is always right. In the event is wrong see point one". It will be painted two ways... 1) you ran ahead and should have waited on the desert god. 2) now that they believe what you claim you believed all along no reason for you not to come back.
Its a no win scenario when the deck is stacked against you. The game is designed so you cannot win.

"i could think of 20 reasons fo go back. That dosent make it right"
Rotfl!!!!! Poor cage.... Still caught up in dubbie definisions of "right" and "wrong", as if they are absolutes when it comes to a silly apocaliptic religion. But keep talking cage. Keep talking. Let it all out.....
You'll keep back from your self imposed exile (which hasnt even started yet evidently) ;) "you all" always come back....

I am not sure if it's me or you all, but this board seems to be full of more people trying to stay in the org rather than leave it. I have no interest keeping that kind of company.
as one of the people he seems to want to avoid, i find this utterly and positively rib tickling funny. lets analyze for a moment....
"i am not sure if its me or you all" ... so based on that are we to conclude that EVERYONE on the board gets lumped into the same category? do "we all" come from the same place, share the same ideas and post identically all day all the time? are we all clones? somehow poor cage fighter has determined that EVERY SINGLE PERSON on this board is IDENTICAL, but somehow HE is different. vastly different! but yet, somehow he cant actually figure out if its really him or if its "us". tragic. Perhaps you should hang around and figure out if its "you" or "us". or not.. whatever.
Then we get... "but this board seems to be full of more people trying to stay in the org rather than leave it" . hmmmmmmmmm....... There's a lot that could be said about this, but lets start with the false premise that poor cagefighter seems to be laboring under. Somehow, someway he seems to have gotten the idea that this place is specifically designed or designated for people who are leaving or have left the organization, or that its designed to encourage people to leave and that if you arnt running out the door this SECOND EXACTLY that you have violated some sort of rule, written or unwritten. That somehow you have betrayed a sacred trust, HIS trust, in not leaving as you had promised. Clearly poor cagefigher wasnt paying attention when he typed the URL for this board. Its called "[desert god] witness.net." The very URL implies that being here means you are a desert god witness. The reality is that most here have left the org, but its not a violation of the TOS that some havent. Im not sure where cage got lost on that particular point, but we all get lost sometimes. I also find it ironic that, despite the implications of the boards name, it seems that 98% of the people here ARE NOT ACTIVE witness, and yet, cage draws the exact opposite conclusion. So lets summarize... we have a boards who's name implies that it should be for active desert god witness, when in reality most are not, but poor cage fighter has gotten confused and thinks the board is for non witness but is somehow infected with active JW's. im not sure where poor cage went through the looking glass or passed through to Bizzaro world, but maybe he can find his way back to reality at some point. Then perhaps he will reassess the "you all" and "me" thing...
Then we get this Gem to round it out " I have no interest keeping that kind of company." LOL!!! wow. If ever there was pot/kettle situation this is it. Im not entirely sure what hes afraid of in "keeping that kind of company". Maybe hes been reading 1 cor 15:33 and feels "you all" are bad association. Maybe hes worried about getting some of that prevalent Pro Witness funk on him that seems to be rampant here. Im not really sure what kind of company he intends to keep so i am a little confused again. After all, the overwhelming spirit here is anti org, hell even the elders (cough cough) that frequent the board would tell any who ask to stay the hell away, so maybe cagefighter intends to go back to the kingdom hall and now feels "you all" are bad association. in any case, it seems positively.... well..... witness like to run away from mere words and ideas that you feel can infect you. Thats all this boards is. THoughts and ideas in cyber space. last i checked there was no actual company to keep here. I cant touch or feel (sadly) any of you, there is no danger of real life funk transferring from one person to another... so to run away and make weird proclamations about the company being kept is... well... weird.
In conclusion, i want to be offended. I think thats what cagefighter wants to happen.... but its all so disjointed and incoherent that i cant actually find anything that offends me. I mean i really really want to even care, just a little... but.... well..... im just not sure what the hell the point was in the first place. its just a random accusation of some imaginary sin thats supposed to be noteworthy to someone other than cage and then he says he leaves from a place that had no real physical hold on him to make him stay anyway. its all rather pointless (as is my analysis). I mean it didnt even have any particular anger or venom to take in.. its just cold passionless assumption, statement , mild intended insult, goodbye. For god sake man, the dubbies do exactly that when they DF someone. "this is to inform the congregation that SO and SO is no longer a *desert god* witness". YOu are still a dubbie!
I look forward to rebuttal when you return. and you will return. "you all" always do.
