I can remember for years after leaving thinking I need to throw away apostate material because demons could attach to it bla bla bla. It took me about 10 years to fully get rid of the cult mind control. I now feel nothing for any kind of guilt or throw back to the cult.

Don't count on witnessing Watchtower's demise anytime soon.
by Roger Kirkpatrick inthe fact that there are pomi ex-jws who have been disfellowshiped or inactive for years who still live in constant fear of armageddon indicates that watchtower will manage to exist in one way or another for years, if not decades, to come.
watchtower, like all other religious cults, operate on the premise that "you can fool some of the people all of the time...and that's enough!
".

Fossils fail to provide a connection
by Doug Mason inpage 24 of “the origin of life” cites henry gee:.
a second, more serious challenge is the lack of proof that those creatures are somehow related.
specimens placed in the series are often separated by what researchers estimate to be millions of years.

There is a ton more proof of evolution than creation. There is no evidence of creation. The flood story is fake made up. No global flood ever happened. The special circumstances it takes to create a fossil its no wonder that there is missing links. that is the nature of the way they come about. Not to mention that the way humans are built is not all the best for a god that is perfect. The eye alone is not well made if it was created by a god.

I don't think they can get much ahead on finances. If they have to leave for any reason does the cult help these people?

I genuinely burst out laughing.................
by The Fall Guy in...when i read a reply to an email which i sent to a devout couple of jw's, showing the luxurious accommodation which "vows of poverty" jw's have been living in.. https://ibsaproperty.com.
the reply began by apologising for their "bad french.
" brilliant!

Nothing you can show them will change their mind. If Tony tight pants molested a child in the middle of time square they would say it was a lie.

Ya because the Jews go over to the Palestinians area and use suicide bombs to kill them and they shoot rockets randomly at them, oh wait that is the Palestinians. Pete, you are being obtuse on purpose or by lack of understanding. It does not matter if giving the Jews Palestine was right or wrong it is and we all have to deal with what is. Its about as stupid as saying we need to give Manhattan and the Black Hills back to the Indians. LMAO Or the insanely stupid idea of reparations to some black who may or may not be a decedent of someone who was a slave 165 years ago. Try living in the now. I would bet you dimes to dollars that if the Palestinians stopped firing rockets into Israel and stop the suicide bombing and attacks that there would be instant peace. Until then I hope the Jews bomb the crap out of them.

As I said, I am an Atheist and do not give a rats ass if two men or women want to marry or live together. Its none of my business. I don't see the bible as the word of god and I for the most part ignore it. But to tell us that the bible is OK with being gay is pissing in my ear and telling me its raining. Its total BS.. The bible is very clear on homosexuality. Sorry if that offends you. You may be the one with issues.

Most of the OPs points are taken but homosexuality is a sin and forbidden in the old and new testament. I have always found it strange how some want to reconcile the two. I don't believe in the bible as the word of god, I don't care if two guys or women want to live together or marry. That said you can not reconcile the two positions. You get people who are trying to twist what the bible says to make their point. Jesus was an Illegal alien, Jesus had not issue with homosexuality. That is total BS and anyone who has read the bible knows it. If a person who was gay was alive in any of the biblical times where the bible and or mosaic code was law they would be killed for being gay. The Romans and Greeks has no real issue with it, but its clear that being gay is not a life style that is OK according to the bible.

Israel has Nukes. And more than a few. They would turn Iran and the Saudi's to glass if the threat was real. The Palestinian have shown them self to be unwilling to work with any solutions outside of all Jews walking into the sea. So they will get more death and destruction.
