i was given the link to a bit of information regarding on old poster/moderator of this forum.

i was not sure of the validity of the information so have been trying to find out if it is true.. earlier today craig's estranged wife, kate, (bikerchic) confirmed that craig died at his home on aug 10, 2011.. i am sure that many people here remember craig's time here and how he went out of his way to offer support to posters, even calling them, to give whatever help he could as they adjusted to their post-jw lives.. i know many people here will grieve his loss.. --------------.

ps i tried posting this earlier but the computer i was working with would not allow the posts.

He had the most comforting and reassuring voice.

So very true. Soothing. And an infectious laugh.

The cult broke his heart. But that it was a beautiful one was readily apparent in speaking with him.

I'm in shock. He was very kind and supportive to me when I first started posting. He was also something of a genius. I can't believe it.

Sorry for your loss, Kate.

Why have you remained theists?

by Silent_Scream in

i realize many on this forum are atheist, and theres many threads to show why.

some believe creationist lack knowledge or understanding and that we are too ignorant to realize there isn't a creator.. i have studied (not in depth) first year college science, and am studying medical/health currently.

i am also very interested in astronomy, and have learned a little in that area.

What did Jesus say to you? Does he speak your language or was he speaking Aramaic or Hebrew or Greek? Does he have a nice voice? How does he find the time to talk to so many people?
