Since so many believers insist that atheism is a "religion," here's another way for atheists to say "grace" before meals:
"Skip the teeth and skip the gums. Look out stomach! Here it comes! Amen."

If you believe in Gods laws why dont you go live in Saudi Arabia ?
by mP ini think we all know that shariah law is basically mohammads copy of the torah, with minor edits.
slavery, womens inequality, anti homosexuality are obviously written in the same spirit.
so believers why dont you go live in saudi arabia if yo u believe gods law is perfect or at the last useful ?.

mrsjones: " I for one am about to cut up some strawberries and make some pancakes for my baby boy. Nothing wicked in any of that. "
Since James Brown stated earlier that atheism is a religion, don't forget to say the Atheists' Prayer before eating those pancakes and strawberries:
"Dig in, everyone! Amen."

The truth just ain't the same any more.
by Julia Orwell inthis has been the sentiment of a few i know who have been full jws for decades.
they say the love is not there like it used to be, and it's become less personal.. anyone heard similar comments from oldies?.
we know the 'truth' ain't the truth in the first place, but i have a feeling there may be a lot of older ones hanging on just because it's all they've ever known, and it the alternative, that there is no paradise around the corner like they've always been taught us unthinkable..

From the apologist blogpost:
" It is God Himself who commands us ... "
Isn't that a line from "The Exorcist"?

What would you tell someone who wants to become a JW?
by slimboyfat inwhat would be the most important things you think someone should be aware about jws if they are planning on getting baptised as a jw?
imagine you are on a plane and get talking to the person next to you.
you find out they are considering becoming a jw but they are not sure.

If someone wants to become a dub, it's probably already too late to reason with him.
If he wanted to chat, I'd answer his questions, but I don't think I'd actively try to dissuade him.
