Every time you flip a coin its a 50% chance of it coming up one or the other. Does not matter how many times it comes up heads or tails. This is trying to find patterns where there are none. There is such a thing as random. When its not random you try to not create patterns and that is not random.

Realization of something very close to a supernatural force but scientific
by Bad_Wolf inafter finding patterns in lottery numbers and thinking about if random truly exists, i also flipped a coin for awhile.
i was counted how many times i would get heads and tails and if they would equal out in the end.
if heads slowly was getting ahead too much, i would suddenly get a bunch of tails in a row to almost equal it out.

Liberal vs. Democrat in the U.S.A.
by OnTheWayOut init seems that many believe that a liberal in the usa must be a democrat, pretty much following the party core teachings and some even think it means approving the party history of, during the 19th century, supporting or tolerated slavery and opposing civil rights reforms after the civil war.
some even insist that a liberal loves anything and everything obama did..
balderdash!!.

Not true OP. You have conflated a lot of things. First off today's socialist/communist Democrat party is not the Democrat party of your grand daddy. FDR put the Japanese into camps for security. It was a good move because of how beholding to the mother land they were. It is like keeping people quarantined if they were exposed to virus. Do they all have it no but you have to see. Today's Dems are communist / socialist. If you vote for todays Dems you are voting for open boarders, illegal immigration, gay and lesbian [I am not against this part but its a plank] demonizing corporations, bashing America as the culture of evil white people who took land from the Indians who were all sining Kumbya around camp fires before, letting men who "identify" as women take a dump with your 12 yo daughter, letting in Muslims who do not assimilate and hate America as much as Democrats, anti 2nd Amendment anti gun period, Abortion on demand even as its dropping out of the womb, anti Christian, [I am an atheist but they hate Christians. ] To name but a few of the crazy crazy shit these idiots believe. If you vote for one this is what you are voting for. The Blue dog Dems have been pushed to Republicans, they have been kicked out, See Alexandria Ortega. I don't agree with several planks of the Republican party but I till take them over the current Dems any day of the week and twice on Sunday.

Why are JDubs scared to death of apostate websites?
by Sour Grapes inwhen i was an elder back in the 1970's i loved to debate and challenge ministers, preachers, and holy rollers.
now you can be a loyal jdub fully indoctrinated for 30 years but just take a peek at an apostate website and you are doomed.
yes, satan now has you by the gonads and all of the years of being at the meetings, all of the family worship nights, all of the conventions, and all of the personal study just go up in a cloud of smoke.

We were told this BS back in the day. Our people know so much about the bible they can tear up anyone in preaching. This has always been BS. It was only in their own mind that they were this good at preaching. I heard the story's, Oh my brother is so good at the bible knowledge he can destroy anyone's "false" religion. But in 30 years I never saw it once.

NWT support of John 1:1. Punching holes in it
by LevelThePlayingField inthis is what they have in the new world translation index 6a to support their version of john 1:1. they are not honest even to their own people.
they list the year of the bible, rendering, and source.
but there's only two sources that actually lend any type of support to their argument.

Personally I quit arguing these points long ago when I came to believe that the bible was nothing more than a goat herders book on the evolution of man. So for me it would be like arguing if there were two green eggs or one green egg with the ham in Dr Seuss.

Just asked JW wife to quit
by rathernotsay inso i wont get into why i asked my jw wife to leave... theres another thread for that lol... but more out of pure curiosity i asked her just now... "in order to save this marriage would you leave the jws?
", it was a snap call no, like not even a second to pause and think about it, which kinda took me back a bit, followed by a angry "why would you ask me that now?
" (shes going out witnessing with my kids and her friends).

I have watched several videos where a husband told his wife that he did not believe. Mark and Cora, Christian and Katja and a few others. The wife got upset every time. I think very calm asking to talk and ask the questions that made you question in the first place at what ever pace she seems to be OK with. Don't think because you are at a point that someone else can catch up over night. Take is slow, the facts are on your side. All you have to do is ask questions. People here will give you good questions to as that are not confrontational.

So glad my wife never really bought into the cult. The only thing we differ on is that I like to read and keep up on the cult and she feels like they fucked up enough of our life just forget them.

Sounds like a letter to Penthouse forum. LOL Unless this geek has a software co he sold or an app like that autistic fuck Zuckerberg I doubt it very very much. Sounds like the cult knows it has a lot of geek wimp bros and wants to keep them in line.

Without god what is the basis of morality?
by OneEyedJoe ini'm sure most here who've questioned or left behind their belief in god have encountered this question - without god, what basis can there be for morality?
my exwife, when i admitted that i was an atheist, once asked me "if you don't believe in god, what's to stop you from going out and raping and murdering?
" previously, whenever i got this objection, i would tend to turn it around on the other person with a response along the lines of "if fear of god is the only thing that stops you from murdering, that makes me rather nervous to be around you.

Humans are social creatures, as such you have to have structure to live socially. God is an invention to give few power over the many. The bible is the last book along with the Koran that I would call "moral"
