Well you don't have to believe in the Easter bunny you just look for shops that sell chocolate, LisaRose. Setting aside belief in God do you feel you have exhausted all avenues of research into evidence for life after death? We arrived here without any need for God didn't we? Why can we not continue evolving?

Yes it's quite effective, coffee table pop history YouTube version.
Of course the Egyptians believed in the immortal soul before the monotheistic religions came along, that's why they mummified bodies and put food and gold in their tombs for the next life.
Isis, Osiris and Horus were a trinity yes, although more accurately a triad, mother, father and son.
This has not been hidden from everyone Adjustments. What on earth do you mean? I knew this when I researched my project on ancient Egypt at primary school aged 10.
Where have you been?

Many start off with integrity I'm sure but after decades as an elder with all the infighting and stepping on heads how could a person keep their integrity? I can imagine the ones with real integrity would leave or perhaps they would get ill, 'step down' and muddle along as a member of the walking wounded without the ability to now work out what the hell is going on in the organisation they once loved. -

what type of faith do you REALLY want?
by atheist_R_stupid ini find that when talking people who say they "used to be a jehovah's witness" they say words that show they have in fact, never been one.
it's like a man that worked for the post office for 30 years in a main major urban hub like chicago or new york... and you ask him, "in your last position, what was your rdo?
" and the man says "whats an rdo?".

Oh I see, he can't cope with the cognitive dissonance that the personal experiences of bethelites, elders, pioneers and many JW families on here are causing him so he has decided to pretend we are all fakes who were never in the religion and are making all our stories up. -

Not been reading here long have you? There are all sorts of people here, some who belong to human rights organisations, like Amnesty that get many JWs out of prison because they're prisoners of conscience in nasty little republics.
We have all different opinions on alcohol, health, abortion, gay people, there is no consensus here. You have a 'them and us' mentality when in reality we are just all trying to survive on this planet and make it a better place or at least make our own families happy.

RELIGION AND MENTAL ILLNESS!!!
by ADJUSTMENTS ini have have come to realize most "rank and file" jw's are mentally unstable-to-ill and here is why.... http://www.jwfacts.com/watchtower/mental-issues.php.

It's a strange thing but if a JW was asked what they believe by a mental health professional they could say they believe Jesus is their invisible King and any day now he's going to kill everyone on earth who isn't a JW. That isn't delusional according to the DSM. They can even say they talk to invisible people and that's ok too. The criteria for having a mental health problem is you must think the invisible people are talking to you. However you can talk to them all day long and you are perfectly well, just religious. -

Why I like Jehovah's Witnesses
by undercover witness ini keep reading that jehovah's witnesses are in effect monsters.
i keep reading that they kinda leave chaos and distrust in their wake.
so i simply wondered if anyone had anything nice to say about them?.

A work colleague asked me yesterday how my mother being a JW and my father not converting affected them. Very badly I said, it ruined their marriage, which had a huge effect on their four children. Ever spent time in a tiny house with two miserable people? Try doing it for twenty years.
The religion breaks up marriages. Or rather because of its divorce rules it makes couples stay together who are desperately miserable and ruins precious childhood years. You like this religion? You know nothing.
