  your qualifications are way above mine so i'd love to hear more about the specifics of what you have researched and how that supports the existence of a deity.

  k99, i am not really convinced that you're interested in my conclusions.

  Uhhh evolution is a theory my dear. NOT a hypothesis but nice effort.

  She didn't say it was s hypothesis. Interesting debate style you have there.

  Post votes rolled up to topics

  by Simon in

  1. forum
  2. announcements

  just an experiment to see if it's useful or not .... the likes and dislikes for posts are now rolled up to the topic so you can see whether a topic is mostly positive or negative (or maybe a battleground?).

  with some 'decay' to the votes built in this might evolve into "most vibrant topics" based on more than just the number or recency of replies (ideally all will factor in).. ps: don't worry if some topic totals are wrong right now - i need to run a job to put some of them right..

  Following up on Rebel's points, the more negative feedback a thread has can be a good indication that there's actually something worth reading/discussing.

  There's no abuse or name calling here on so there's very little reason for anyone to click dislike imo. It's just a lazy way of discussion, but it can indicate controversial ideas/posts which are generally more entertaining than the asinine stuff that everyone likes.

  Well if you don't want anyone else to jump in I suggest you use the phone or PM. Until you do, if I see something I'd like to comment on I'll reply to it if it's all the same to you.

  Thx.

  landy you are making an assumption that prolly has more to do with you than with me - but I am cool with that.

  I wasn't making any assumptions - I was asking you a question. The ? at the end of the sentence should have been a hint for you.

  it doesn't matter where they are located, i need to get out physically, mentally, and emotionally.

  To the OP, try your hardest to associate with people that aren't witnesses. I know it's easier said than done but find new friends, join a club, take up a hobby that involves meeting others. The madness that the JWs teach will soon seem just that - madness.

  I guarantee that once you start mixing in other circles you'll be able to lie in bed on a Sunday morning and not give JWism another thought.

  @Perry - your delusional ramblings are great - keep them coming :)

  Hadriel in science they don't like to attribute changes to unique events and tend to keep on pursuing explanations that are more systematic. so here you will meet a lot of resistance.

  You say that like it's a bad thing.

  Would you rather replace a systematic, evidence led based process with a 'Ooh, we don't know the answer, therefore God' approach?

  I wish someone could give me the instant answer , I feel physically , mentally and spiritually drained after these months of constant tug of war .

  More than one person gave you the instant answer. You just didn't accept it. :)

  Only you can decide if she's worth it.

  Whch brings us back to my first comment on this thread ;)

  My Refurbished Web Page

  by NeonMadman in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i know that many here are no longer believers, but i also know that there are still some participating in this forum who consider themselves christians.

  i recently refurbished my web site extensively, and thought some of you might enjoy browsing it.

  some of my articles are aimed at exposing unbiblical teachings of the watchtower, and my video presentations on "darkness in the watchtower" and "the watchtower's mad science and bad medicine" have been particularly well received.

  Landy, I've been trying myself to figure out why it's a BS degree rather than a BA. But my degree is indeed a BS, not a BA. I can post a copy if you want. But I agree, a BS seems like an odd duck. Nonetheless, I wasn't about to quibble when they awarded it to me after all that coursework.

  Thanks Neon
  

  I can understand a degree in religious studies, as that can be factual as far as studying the beliefs and origins of various religions. I can also understand the courses that are delivered at places such as a catholic seminarys where they're preparing a person for priesthood - at least they're nailing their colours to the mast.

  I stuggle to understand the validity or value of courses delivered at places like Moody so I'm curious as to the course content and how it was delivered, including any slants or opinions they taught.

  I know when I was a kid I sometimes would ask for a toy - and though my mom heard my plea, and she was "near" me physically and as a loving parent - I did not get the toy.

  Schoolboy error.

  You'd have been better off stealing it and praying for forgiveness ;)
