@prologos, is that a quote from someone else somewhere else? Or are you asking here if this is a first? :P I honestly could care very little if the organization decides I'm an apostate or not. They're a deceptive, rotten bunch and I'm just going to live my life honestly. That said, I do respect that what might work for me might not work for everyone else.
@evilApostate, hi! I guess I would try Swift, but I don't own any Apple products. Man, programming has become so much more accessible over the years. What, nobody wants to try LISP? :P

@prologos, Madras, OR? About 4.5 hours away, I'm in Medford. I'd like to check out the freethinkers group in Ashland some time.
The old Hansen case happened here in Medford, and I live 8 minutes away from their house. I haven't gone to knock on their door, because I'm sure that whoever's there now would rather not discuss it.

I have heard some and never explored Go. Sounds a bit like Lua, but with Google's backing.

@scratchme, I'm mostly a *nix guy on the programming front, so I was big on C for a long time. I actually started with C++, but since the more recent standards, I don't know if I'd recognize certain additions to the language today. I do like Python and Lua quite a bit, and in a particularly nerdy endeavor, I learned some 6502 assembly to program for C64 and NES. :P Never went anywhere with really any of this, but programming has absolutely influenced how I think, and I credit Eric S. Raymond and The Art of Unix Programming for introducing me to some more philosophical ideas in general (and not just in programming).
All that said, I have a Windows 10 laptop sitting in front of me, and I'm perfectly happy with it so far. I might look into some more C# and .Net stuff if I feel so compelled.

I think I have worked out a lot of vitriol and frustration that I had for the organization through this forum. Thank you so much Simon, scratchme, Finkelstein, David_Jay, Heaven, blondie, and everyone else here on helping me feel welcome and validated but also to help me calm down.
Thank you everyone.

Knock knock."Who's there? Two elders!!
by Darkknight757 inso today was a cold and snowy day in my neck of the woods and the wife and i were just chilling around the house waiting to go to the church tonight for a candle lighting service when lo and behold we get a knock on the door.
yup, 2 elders from my old hall.
i figured they were fishing for some time so i invited them in and gave them some coffee and we talked about everything that happened and why we walk away from the jw's.

Because they want to live forever! Don't you? No? Well you don't want to die, do you? Well, see! You wanna live forever! It's in you to want to keep living, therefore God.

At that time the suns rays could not fully be on the earth because of the water canopy round the earth.
And yet this water canopy persisted for another 1656 years after the birth of Seth.
Admire the reinterpretations as we might, that's all they really are. Plainly, the earth is not older than the stars either. It's about 4.543 billion years old in a universe that is 13.772 billion years old.
