  Cappytan, thanks, but won't that lose my data on other websites, too?

  Yeah, it will. :-/

  I noticed this to in the past although it hasn't really been an issue for me.

  Try going to "settings" on your iPad, scroll down to "Safari", then scroll down to "Clear History and Website Data." This should manually clear the login session.

  ive had to make statements like this too many times.

  communities like this have had to endure tragedies like this too many times.

  once again, communities [were harmed] because someone who wanted to inflict harm had no problem getting their hands on a gun.. lets be clear: at some point, we as a country will have to reckon with the fact that this type of mass violence does not happen in other advanced countries.

  After twenty years of marriage…

  by John Aquila in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i just got a call from a friend who informed me that a brother whom i've known for a while and is an elder, just found out last night that his wife of 20+ years declared she was gay, and left him..

  i still need to confirm but my friend is very reliable and was close friends with the family.

  heres the thing, she spent 20+ years with this man, has children with him and now decides she wants to follow her heart.

  I'd be sad, but would be happy for her.

  My wife's happiness is important to me. I love her, so I want her to be happy.

  If she's miserable with me, and isn't genuinely sexually attracted to me, because of my love for her I wouldn't want to keep her from being true to herself.

  This woman likely wouldn't have spent 20+ years ago if she wasn't in a cult that made her afraid of coming out.

  Richard Dawkins talking about a Creator

  by FusionTheism in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  richard dawkins admitted that information inside of dna, and the origin of life on earth, might point to intelligent designers, perhaps extraterrestrials.

  (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=boncjbrrdq8 )richard dawkins further admitted, in a debate with francis collins for time magazine, that science might point to a creator existing, but that this creator might not be anything like yahweh:.

  time: "could the answer be god?

  I suppose that if you do not want your position on an issue challenged or questioned if you fail to provide evidence, you would not enjoy any kind of conversation with Viv or Cofty.

  But, if you actually want to have a real conversation instead of just preaching at people, if you want a free exchange of ideas based on evidence, then you would immensely enjoy conversations with them.

  Interacting with them challenges me to back up my claims with evidence, not supposition, conjecture and baseless speculation.

  My experience of christians and religion

  by Doltologist in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  one or two of you have noticed that i use derogatory terms when talking about matters religion.

  i offer no apology.

  you do, however, deserve an explanation.. my father, bless him and now dead, was a survivor of belsen, the german concentration camp.

  When I found out Doltologist had Asperger's, I started reading his posts keeping that in mind. I don't get so worked up anymore, because I know he's just wired differently. Not inferior or anything, just not like me. So, I give him a pass on most things.

  Yes, Asperger's isn't an excuse for unacceptable behavior, but I haven't seen anything that steps way over the line, in my opinion.

  To Doltologist: Like I said earlier, you catch more flies with honey. I'm not saying you're wrong, but you are getting worked up. Perhaps trying a different approach could go a long way with those that are all up in arms and upset over something that, in the grand scheme of things, is a very trivial matter.

  Paul said NOT to be "Harsh" in Shunning

  by FusionTheism in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the apostle paul warned the corinthians not to be too harsh in their shunning of a man who was guilty of sexual immortality / adultery:.

  2 co 2:5-11: now if anyone has caused sadness, he has saddened, not me, but all of you to an extentnot to be too harsh in what i say.

  this rebuke given by the majority is sufficient for such a man; now you should instead kindly forgive and comfort him, so that he may not be overwhelmed by excessive sadness.
