  Everything In The Universe Was Created By Absolutely Nothing.

  this is the purest example of an oxymoron.

  repeat this sentence over and over again and you will realize why it's impossible for some people to accept the big bang model.

  I don't recall a scientist EVER saying the universe came from nothing? Matter may have existed as energy before the big bang (due to the conservation of mass-energy), the energy may have become mass, the mass becomes infinitely dense, it goes bang, the universe as we know it is born.

  I believe a more detailed and explained version of what I just said is written in the book "Atheist Universe". It's only a hypothesis at this point but that doesn't mean that just because we don't know something that we need a god of the gaps to fill it in. You see, the difference between religion and science is...

  Religion: We don't know, god did it.

  Science: We don't know, we will actively search and study until we do.

  It looks to me like he purposely pushed him onto the cushion and saved his life.

  I'm not sure whether or not Jesus existed. If he did, I don't think there was anything special about him other than his good speaking skills. If he didn't, then...well yeah.

  could not god be an alien?

  I'm atheist and I believe there is a great chance for life other than here on earth, chances are, most life in the universe would be unintelligent. I don't believe Earth has ever been visited by other life.

  And I'm not really sure how you can come to the conclusion that it's just as logical to believe in God rather than alien life. Alien life certainly is more of a possibility than God. Planets within 20 light years of Earth have already been found that are the perfect distance from their star to harbor life. That leaves so many more possiblities for not only this galaxy but the whole universe. There is no science or logic behind God.

  Life after death

  by truthseeker in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  everyone has different views about life after death and whether or not it is a possibility.. as jehovah's witnesses, we were always taught that there is no life after death, that this is the only life we have now and that the wages of sin is death.. .

  what are your views on life after death?.

  My view is that this is all we get. I think that after I die, I'll feel the same way as before I was born, absolutely nothing. As depressing as that sounds, that is the reason I am so happy. Since I feel that this is my only life, I don't stress over things I know will mean nothing. My friends always mention how happy and relaxed I am all the time and this is definitely the reason why. It makes me love life so much.

  I usually read science books. I read Stephen Hawking's The Grand Design, David Mills' Atheist Universe (my favorite), and Richard Dawkin's, The God Delusion, among others. This isn't related to the others but I also read about half of Under the Dome by Stephen King.

  Do You Feel Somewhat Liberated When You Talk About Your JW Past?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i do.. when i tell people that i was a witness, nobody can believe it!

  i enjoy telling them why i left the religion, the harm they cause, and the benefits of being out of it.. do you express yourself in this way too or is it only me?.

  I hate talking about it even though I was never baptised. I'm never the one to bring it up and when it is brought up I'll answer questions and change the subject.

  by Pitchess Co-Gen in

  2. experiences

  i remember being a high school senior and wanting to go to prom ( i graduated from high school in 2003 ), but prom was forbidden when your a jw teen.

  i even said to my parents if i took a witness girl would it be ok; they actually said yes.

  i found a girl ( yes she's a witness ) to go with me, but here's the kicker she agreed to go.

  i, for one, don't believe that the us killed bin laden last week as per their official press releases.

  i want to see photographic evidence.

  having said that, when or if they produce a photo, i'll then say it has been doctored.
