Watched 3 season of game of thrones - I want those 25+ hours of my life back
by will-be-apostate inthis is the worst series i've ever watched in my life.
whenever things are starting to get smooth and good characters seem to gain advantage, the writers just kill them.
i've wasted 25+ hours of my life watching how the writers make the bad win over the good.. they make you continue watching by planting the seed in your head that "just a few more episodes and everything is gonna be all right", but no, painful death comes upon anyone who is not cruel and perfidious enaugh.

Want to know why people accept evolution ?
by snare&racket indo you have questions about or want to understand evolution?
it is a difficult concept to communicate and so if it is not explained well , it is understandable that we would dismiss it.. i sincerely want to talk with people who want to learn more or see what all the fuss is about.
we are all learning and increasing our knowledge all the time and it is good to go over facts with critical eye.. evolution we can discuss, looking at the foundational facts and evidence, one at a time for you to go and check, agree or disagree with and return.. no pressure to accept it, you can decide for yourself, also no mocking etc of what you have to say.. .

Village Girl;
What on earth does the male sex have to do with anything, mitochondrial dna came from mothers and there is no sex in the earlier organisms. It is quite the opposite of what you have said so why did you say that ? What have you been told...because it was a lie.I don't want to hear an opinion, what evidence, what scientific data supports your idea that evolution in any way is pro male?
I heed the words of Hitchens, my atheist hero. Some won't like me saying that, but he is. Also I found the stangulation of female power in our religion toxic and unbearable. I found release from that in science and evidence. I do not recognise the sexist element you have mentioned.

Compare that to your subscribed world view.....
"Wives, submit yourselves to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord."
"the head of the woman [is] the man"
"And I find more bitter than death the woman, whose heart [is] snares and nets, [and] her hands [as] bands"
"How then can man be justified with God? or , how can he be clean [that is] born of a woman?"
"But if she bear a maid child, then she shall be unclean two weeks, as in her separation: and she shall continue in the blood of her purifying threescore and six days. "
" ...discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed"
I hope you don't hve daughters ....and I think we will leave it there hey Village Girl, I did say no trolling and hijacking. If you are sincere in an interest stay, I mean it please do. If you want to close your eyes, put fingers in your ears and preach loudly from a scroll, please make your own thread....

You saw my pain, washed out in the rain
Broken glass, saw the blood run from my veins
But you saw no fault no cracks in my heart
And you knelt beside my hope torn apart
But the ghosts that we knew will flicker from view
And we'll live a long lifeSo give me hope in the darkness that I will see the light
Cause oh they gave me such a fright
But I will hold as long as you like
Just promise me we'll be alright
So lead me back
Turn south from that place
And close my eyes to my recent disgrace
Cause you know my call
And we'll share my all
And our children come, they will hear me roar
So give me hope in the darkness that I will see the light
Cause oh they gave me such a fright
But I will hold as long as you like
Just promise me that we'll be alright
But hold me still bury my heart on the coast
And hold me still bury my heart next to yours
So give me hope in the darkness that I will see the light
Cause oh they gave me such a fright
And I will hold on with all of my might
Just promise me that we'll be alright
But the ghosts that we knew will flicker from view
And we'll live a long life -

I think we are still a million miles away from true democracy and true communism has never been attempted anywhere.
I am a liberal socialist and I think the world is heading in the right direction, but capitalism needs to get it's dirty paws off democracy, it belongs to us, not them.

EX JW Podcast
by snare&racket ini am setting up a podcast (radio show) where we will cover the issues of jw's, amongst the topics of science, belief and more.. i am letting you guys know because i would like to interact with the forum as we do them, looking for suggestions for topics, looking for guest ideas and also we can mask voies and change names, so interviewing current jw's to help provide people a voice, an outlet for their frustration whilst providing a safety net.
there is no hierarchy, but current elders, bethelites etc that contribute here already will be more than welcome and protected!.
the podcast will be pro science, i will have both atheist and theist co-presenters in the episodes but i can't deny my bias towards evidence and science, but hopefully it should be enjoyable and informative for us all.. i plan for it to be about 2hrs long, maybe an episode a month or every 2 or 3 weeks.

Which Conspiracy Theory Should You Believe?
by metatron inhttp://www.buzzfeed.com/katieheaney/which-conspiracy-theory-should-you-believe-in.
it's a quiz to help you pick a conspiracy theory that fits you.
i ended up with "moon landing was faked" which doesn't exactly apply.. .

So yes, let me know wha you think... and plenty of suggestions...
Guests?
Topics?
Name for the show?
Ideas for a format?
Anybody want to help out with the show or with a supporting website? (Again it can be done in a way so you are anonymous but have the means to help!)
