An email to a new person in "the truth"
by biblexaminer in
1. jw
2. experiences
i wanted to share a few points from an email that i recently sent to a very sincere person.

i think this has value for the dub neophytes in the crowd who lurk here.. to those newbies who, despite having found out plenty about the watchtower, still continue your study and attendance at meetings, i leave you these thoughts.. i understand your thinking, more than you know.

when you take a look at the various churches around, there's not much to offer.

everyone on jw.com were jws and attended the same congregation.

now, i'm not saying that we'd follow brooklyn's rules (how boring).

perhaps its just the timespatriotic fervor sweeps over me.

Why atheism?
by Skimmer in
1. jw

on varieties of atheism:.

can we even speak of clear and distinct ideological borders among atheists, agnostics, and theists?

absent any commonly accepted scientific proof of the existence of god (or gods), we must consider that the labeling is based on an individual's personal interpretation.

about 2 years ago in my journal i started a page "rules for life":.

my rule for this page was it had to be a definent, 100% for certain rule with no way of swaying it's truth.

in 2years time i've come up with one rule so far on that page.. 1) talk is cheap; so keep it simple.. i think i may be ready to add rule #2:.
