If you're up for a laugh, check out this entire website by creationists "debunking" evolution, natural selection and even the fossil and DNA record... it's hilarious.

Evolution is a Fact #31 - Ten Questions for Creationists
by cofty ini thought this would be a good time to pose some questions based on the series so far.. if creationism is true these should be easy.
answers that don't involve copy-paste would be really interesting to read.. ... .
1. since some proteins can be assembled in more ways than there are atoms in the universe why do the sequences of amino acids and bases vary between species in exactly the way evolution predicts?

Did Ray Franz Help You To Get Out of “The Truth”?
by minimus ini sneakily read his books at work.
it was written in such a way that no one could accuse him of being another bitter old apostate.. once it registered in my brain, especially after reading the second book, i knew i had to get out!.

He certainly did. In fact, without it I could well have still been in the cult by now.

Faders Needing a Great One Liner
by Solzhenitsyn inso our family fade is well under way.
we changed congregations as regular attenders and left in good standing with those giving hugs and kisses simply knowing we "needed a change".
we moved to a neighboring congregation that is out of our original region knowing we would see no one and the two boe's wouldn't really have immediate dealings.

woah, woah, woah. First of all...
lots of debauched teens and single moms that dress like whores that keep them incredibly busy
Which cong is this again? I may pay a visit.
As for the one liner, how about "I heard some apostate teaching about an overlapping generation or something? This contradicts the religion I was baptized into."

It's not hard to fudge the numbers of preaching hours in the stats. All you have to do is let them start reporting even increments of 15mins - those 15mins all add up you know.
Then let them count preaching hours PER PERSON even if they're just standing next to a literature stand.
Oh... wait...

I sometimes get "well, what can YOU offer that's better than what we hope for?"
As if im supposed to give them a new belief system... and tell them what to believe.

Reminiscing about the Manchester JW Scene
by Farmer Jim1 ini’m sure like many of you that use this forum i sometimes think back over the years as a jw and recall the funny, the strange and then the downright bizarre things that happened within the organisation.
i grew up and settled in a densely jw populated area of manchester which was filled with the usual jw drama and nonsense.. if you were from the area and have any memories or stories please post them here.. one of the things i clearly recall (and i’m sure this wasn’t just a manchester jw thing) was the massive drinking culture within the jw community.
i didn’t really pick up on it until i started questioning things but looking back i can remember my parents taking about an elder in the hall that drank a can of beer before going to the thursday meeting.

Every ex-Bethelite i've spoken to have all confirmed the huge drinking culture at Bethel. I suppose you'd need it living there with your roommate wanting to sit on your lap and your pillows going missing. -

Should I be with someone who's had lots of pervious partners?
by Jxvi inthanks for reading (i'm sorry this is a little bit of a sensitive topic, though i'll try to be gentle.).
a little back story.
i have been working so hard to build my faith this year, and i am finally at the point where i am beginning to trust god and i want to build an unbreakable relationship with him.

Look mate, having “lots” of partners doesn’t = not respecting oneself. People enjoy sex, some more than others. It wouldn’t bother me one bit if my gf had been with hundreds before me. It’s not really anything to do with you.
what matters is right now. If she actually wants to have sex with you that’s a good thing, it means she’s into you. Have her previous partners been “just sex”? Probably. But again in the real world there’s nothing wrong with that.
You think you got problems now just wait until you become a JW and you’ll be required to ask the elders if you can or can’t do this or that position (I’m not joking).
