  Not too my son...

  by The Rebel in

  1. jw

  will i say " orlando, your hair is too long, and needs to be cut short" and never will i say " orlando, invites to birthday parties can't be accepted".

  and i will buy my son books he wants to read, books that bring him happiness, and that he understands.

  and by so doing, i hope he will acquire happy memories of his childhood, so that the sensitive and delicate, in him will be allowed to grow.

  I think having children fast tracked my learning ttatt.

  I didn't enjoy my JW upbringing, deep down resenting the religion as it seemed an endless list of RULES and a constant constraint on fun....... and now, I was going to do this to my kids?? Deep down I hated being a JW, but stuck it out. Having children of my own and forcing it on them was another matter, I couldn't do it.

  I've heard others say similar, that starting a family was the begining of thier waking up. This would more likely be the case when we experience a negative JW upbringing I'm guessing.

  arguing with those who reject scientific evidence can be like arguing about football; just as angry and passionate, but the goalposts keep moving, and one team doesn't exist.. read more here....

  Yes, I know, it occurred by accident many millions of years ago. The process kept on improving itself, migrating from one-celled organisms to multi-celled organisms.

  I am fairly certain you are making an error with this logical leap.

  Scientist needs to decipher and isolate DNA and gene sequences with algorithms, meaning DNA was constructed by means of algorithms.

  George Wald does a terrible job of stimulating any thought with that hopeless summary. He actually done himself a massive disservice by speaking that dribble, at least to me. Even a stupid person can benefit from keeping his mouth shut sometimes... this was one of those times from old George.

  couples therapy

  i have often wished i knew better words to give here when i see couples 'bleeding'.

  1. avoid letting the children take over your lives.

  although you need to love and care for your children in the very best ways that you can, it’s also important that they don’t dominate your entire relationship.. children are an important part of your relationship.

  This is good, but a few hours to late. I have already taken my relationship advice from the Woman's Purpose thread.

  I conclude evolution is guided

  your qualifications are way above mine so i'd love to hear more about the specifics of what you have researched and how that supports the existence of a deity.

  k99, i am not really convinced that you're interested in my conclusions.

  in nature amino acids formed to then form dna.

  I conclude we were all farted into existence by a giant alien anus, and the entire universe in which we now live is just a giant gassy expulsion.

  Unlike KateWild, I have watched nearly every episode of Scooby-Doo, so my conclusions are pretty solid.

  Three graphs in connection with the Watch Tower's current financial situation

  by slimboyfat in

  2. beliefs

  a number of public statements by the governing body indicate that they are experiencing financial difficulty and they have appealed to jws to donate more money.

  public information on the financial situation of the watchtower society is limited.

  but what does the information they do publish indicate about their situation?

  The increase in staff expenditure could be vast amounts of hush money paid under the table to prevent law suits from the rampant pedo problem.

  Complaining over post dislikes / downvotes

  by Simon in

  1. forum
  2. announcements

  let's be clear: people have the right to like or dislike what they want - that is why the option is there.

  as long as they are not doing it in a malicious way to retaliate or game the system, there is no policing the votes.

  if you get a down-vote, live with it.

  The most innocuous comments often still get disliked, the most likely reason being sand in the vagina.
