DesirousofChange: No I didn't read the wall of text. Folks, its pretty simple: a) he is a troll b) he is "sincere" and just turned into an apostate by posting here. Case solved. Either one is good to me. Have a nice Sunday. Enjoy it before you join the dinosaurs (looking forward to that!).

How to Avoid the Faithless Spirit of most here-
by DocHouse in1- pray to god (whomever you may imagine him to be) asking for understanding.
2- study the background about the bible (from non-religious sources) to see where it came from.
3- discard (or at least set aside) chuyrch claims and dogma.. 4- read it, looking up archaeological/historical sources about the places and peoples referred to.

By the way, this is why a healthy discussion is so valuable. Reading this thread led me to investigate Chinese inventions and there are some really, really fantastic discoveries (modern day!) made by Chinese scientists and investigators.
I think it would be arrogant to disregard a complete nation of over 1.3 billion humans because of "blah, Chinese? Only copy cats!" (this is what I hear very often from some of my American & German friends). Careful. They have probably more people with high IQ than many Western countries entire population.
They have millions of professing Buddhists, Taoists and followers of Confucius (altough considered more of a philosophy) - only because the government is religion free it is also false to say 1.3 billion people are Atheists!

Paris: What makes you think that Russia is atheist? Lenin promoted state atheism in the Soviet Union. Russia has over 100 million Russian Orthodox Christians. Matter of fact, they tend to be more religious than most Catholic countries that I know in Europe. I have Orthodox friends and they tend much more to Christian customs and traditions than other Christians. Former Soviet Union states (like Ukraine) even have over 90% proclaiming to be active Christians.
Even Vladimir Putin is a strong supporter of the Orthodox church. I don't know if it is his true conviction or just media fake, but he stands publicly at the side of Russian Orthodox church leaders. He is anti-gay and pro-family in his stance. Like him or not, that pretty much makes him more Christian than most European politicians.
As for the discussion at hand:
I agree, still believing ex-JW should be as welcome as Atheist ex-JW. I am an Atheist and still appreciate the effort that some of you put into your posts, defending YOUR faith. I just can't stand posters with a "Governing-Body"-Mania coming here and treating people like retards because they are not reading Ezeqquiel line-by-line and making prophecies that are nothing short of science fiction (at best) and madness (at worst).
Be in peace.
DontCallMeShirley: Good points. I am in Europe and the countries you mentioned are doing well in terms of peace and excellent living conditions. Once people focus on solving actual, real world problems instead of waiting for fried chickens falling from the sky things tend to become a lot better.

MadGiant: Absolutely correct. I have always thought that - even if we became "perfect" again in the "new system" - our body is far from being admirable. Sleep? Why sleep? There is nothing useful and pleasant about sleep. Your body goes full limb, useless and your brain shuts down and becomes unconscious. I know, creationists will now come beating me explaining that during sleep this and that happens, blah blah blah...I know that, but there could be a far better way to accomplish all those things.
The same with shiting and peeing. I hate these two. Really, really stupid activities. Why couldn't we have a full recycling system, where everything is used up without creating such a mess and source for diseases.
We also share this waste system with E V E R Y single animal out there. That alone shows that we where not created. We are part of the animal world!

Hahahahahaha....DATA-DOG....I know what you did here
I agree.
Your answer in the other thread is GOLD worth! Excellent answer. I laughed so hard reading this:
"Jesus is the carrot and YHWH is the stick. Both ends are played against the middle by the NWO or whoever is pulling the strings.There can never be an enlightenment of humanity as long as people waver between the vengeful desert God and the free love hippie." - Quote by DATA-DOG
Priceless!

Indeed, indeed JW.ORG has competition like: redtube DOT com, xhamster DOT com and the like! (Don't click those links! They are NOT WORK SAFE! - Just to make a joke ;-)
Other than that: hipocrites abound - cults that reject technology having a website FOR THE MONEY!
Edit: changed the links from live links to dead links. Don't want to get into hot water here

Fernando: That is fine and dandy. Next question, when should we kill jews and muslims and buddhists? Is this a good time to slaughter them? Can't wait to see only the true faith in existance. Just saying. Give us the signal. Loading the Kalashnikov as we speak!

One day I put Jesus in charge to fill out my lottery slip and he failed miserably. Don't want to hear from that guy EVER again!
