Very scary: Canada's push to censor criticising Islam is dangerous and has scary implications for cults like the JW
by kpop ini am very worried about this latest law that (surprise!
) a muslim immigrant wants to make into law in canada using all of canada's powers to stop anything that might be critical of islam, labeling it as "islamophobia.
" well this should be very frightening to all of us here, especially since we know what happens when you are not allowed to openly criticize a religion, or a thought, or politics!

God answers JW prayers about trivialities while ignoring the abuse of little children
by jambon1 ini've heard many experiences about how jehovah answers the prayers of jw's - convention items about pioneers gas bills, car repairs, job opportunities.
now, if this is true, you are actually stating that god has directly intervened in your life.
taken action on your behalf.

Intercessory prayer has always been one of the things that wound me up and was instrumental in me not going any more.

US news article about low JW education causing problems in life - interesting
by Gorbatchov ingood article, a must read, from my perception.. i did a bachelor and master since 2001, having the same opinion, for a better present and future and for my and family sake: being an educated person, gaining respect and being proud of what i could realize in life.
a win - win situation.. http://www.npr.org/tags/510831679/jehovahs-witnesses.
for present jw and non present jw's, take your change and take the path to higher education.. g.. g..

you expect a President to research before he speaks
Actually thinking before he speaks would be a start!

Cooked food and the evolution of man.
by Crazyguy ini was watching a documentary on the development of man and they were indicating that the eating of high protein diet was helping man to grow a bigger brain and then went on to say that cooking the food was the breakthrough on how our brain became bigger then other animals that ate a lot of protein.
does this make any sense to you and what science if any shows cooked protein is better in any way over raw?
your thoughts..

Another interesting sideline is that we've developed lactose tolerance only fairly recently as a species. Our natural state as adults is to lactose intolerant.

The true cost of being raised as a witness
by stuckinarut2 inhow do you view your upbringing as a witness?.
most of us who were raised as witnesses would appreciate that some aspects of our upbringing were ok. a foundation and measure of stability came with it.. but, it struck me too, that we also lost so very much!
and we lost a lot of potential.. by this i mean, we need to look at not just what we lost, or what was deprived of us, but what that ended up costing us as adults into the future.. if i take $10 from you, you have lost just $10.. but, if you were going to use that $10 to buy something that would end up earning you $1000, then i actually took $1000 from you!.

And as you get older and focus out still further, you might realise when you look inside yourself, that you create your entire universe, and take the ultimate responsibility for everything, hold no hurt and no malice.
That deserves a lot more than the the one like I can give it.

The sly tactics the elders are using to malign my name!
by stuckinarut2 ini have had it confirmed now, that since stopping attending over 18 months ago, the elders have set out to deliberately ruin my name and character .. they have been talking to every witness from the local area and saying things like "be careful of him, he has the ability to implant thoughts in your minds, and he only pretends to be kind and caring".
so, all i have to say to them is, "bravo!
if that is the method you want to employ, you have reached the very depths of bad behaviour!".

What is your opinion of the news media?

So, I'll fill you in: Sweden has big problems with immigration - illegal and legal - and with integration of immigrants into Swedish society, and with sexual crimes carried out by immigrants on ethnic Swedish women. The Swedish media have a policy of reporting crimes carried out by immigrants but they won't say the ethnicity and immigrant status of the criminals.
And it would be nice if you could back that up with some verifiable facts.

Why is it relevant - is a criminal not a criminal regardless of nationality?
