richard dawkins revealed that he celebrates christmas on radio four's today programme.. here is is quoted as saying: .
'i am perfectly happy on christmas day to say merry christmas to everybody,' dawkins said.
'i might sing christmas carols - once i was privileged to be invited to kings college, cambridge, for their christmas carols and loved it.
I don't see atheists as hypocritical for having parties, putting up trees etc . Nothing religious about that.
However for Richard Dawkins to sing songs of praise to the God that he has spent most of his life denying does seem hypocritical

about a month ago i started having a clear out of old clothes, books and bric a brac etc….. i don’t know what came over me but i decided to chuck out all my old jw literature because we literally have no more room.
it started with magazines, then books, ministry literature and once i started, couldn’t stop.
weird right?
I know that most people who leave the WT become atheists. That is entirely each individual's choice .
However as a never been JW , lifelong Anglican l feel sad when l see all denominations lumped together with the Witnesses.
I see no similarities between the church that l belong to and JW teaching, even to the Bible that they use .

i may be mistaken, but wasn’t there a governing body video where one of them said something along the lines of you don’t trust that the vaccines are safe do you really believe that the governing body is the faithful slave?
perhaps i imagined this but i thought something like this was said.
It's still mind boggling to me how much control these people have . Just when l think that l have heard it all ..........

i already have a friend who is trying to tell me that my mental health is causing my disillusionment with the jehovah’s witnesses.
funny that a mental health therapist has told me my mental health issues are caused by being a jehovah’s witness.
i’m still not going back.
Wow they really do a good job of mind control.
I suppose that your friend does mean well and believes what she says .
By that logic most of the world's population is mentally ill.

what is with the jw cadence when they speak.
do they think they are teaching people ?
they sound like pro wrestlers doing promos or shakespearean actors.
I get annoyed at statements like " one church said " . Which church.? Always this very vague quality about the " information " that they are giving.
What would happen if an audience member asked the question?

if a pimi sister has been told by her unbelieving husband not to take these experimental vaccines then what is official jw policy in this situation?.
should she go against her husband and tell him i will do what the men at my church tell me?.
what on earth will the husband think then?
Jehovaxx , l have never heard that and none of my ( many ) vaccinated friends have heard that.
Is there SCIENTIFIC proof that this happens?

Jehovaxx how is it going to transfer to the husband ?
It is up to every individual to decide for themselves

Surely she's better off without such a control freak of a husband and what's it got to do with the WT ?
Everyone has the right to choose for themselves

Guys l don't have access to the Feb 2024 study WT . So do they actually go on to counter this worry that some may have ?
