  my parents are visiting for not-thanksgiving.

  dad started bringing up spiritual stuff and i almost screwed up my fade.. it's so hard to have a genuine discussion about the issues in the organization when you have become an atheist.

  it feels icky and disgusting to have to pretend and nod your head at such platitudes as "you just need to have faith"..."trust in jehovah"..."jehovah will correct it"..."remember ray franz?

  VI: it was all I could do not to blow up. I had to end the conversation after that on the pretense of it being late.

Jehovah took care of him and corrected things...just wait on Jehovah."

  It feels impossible to keep pretending that I'm just having some doubts when there's no doubt at all in my mind anymore about the organization.

  So maddening.

  i am jehovah's witness, despite some of the questionable teachings, crimes, and other outlandish behaviors of specific people affiliated with the religion.

  i know that my relationship with jehovah is not influenced by any outside factors.

  i do not condone any crime.

  Dear Jehovah, (in the words of Stephen Fry),

  "Bone cancer in children, what’s that about? How dare you? How dare you create a world where there is such misery that’s not our fault? It’s utterly, utterly evil.
  “Why should I respect a capricious, mean-minded, stupid god who creates a world which is so full of injustice and pain?
  “The god who created this universe, if he created this universe, is quite clearly a maniac, an utter maniac, totally selfish. We have to spend our lives on our knees thanking him. What kind of god would do that?
  “Yes the world is very splendid, but it also has in it insects whose whole life cycle is to burrow into the eyes of children and make them blind.”

  His invisible qualities are clearly seen from his creation. My lifes experiences are proof of His existence. I have seen some things that only He could contribute to. I will not post all of my experiences here because people will just think I'm lying or hallucinating. But Jah is real. My life's work is to help bring peace to this world, I believe we all can. :)

  I believe an Invisible Pink Unicorn created all things. That Invisible Pink Unicorn's invisible qualities are clearly seen from all of creation. My life's experiences are proof of the Invisible Pink Unicorn's existence. I have seen things that only the Invisible Pink Unicorn could contribute to.

  See? Sounds insane, doesn't it?

  Also, if Jehovah's qualities are seen in his creation, why does he give bone cancer to children? How is that loving?

  lovesjehovah: I know where you're coming from.

  What convinces you that Jehovah actually exists? What evidence do you have?

  When I met this girl I had 2 very attractive girl friends.

  You were dating two girls at the same time? Did they know about each other?
