  Should we fear death?

  by sleepy in

  should we fear death?.

  how do you feel about dying?.

  after leaving the witnesses i find i am ever more aware of my own mortality.before i could comfort myself with the idea that i could be ressurected.i think the realisation that death will completly end my life , and that there was nothing afterward , was one of the most difficult things to come to terms with.. generally i don't think about it , but when some happens and i do , the idea , quite frankly scares the hell out of me.. but does death really bring the end to us?.

  mrmoe got me thinking... is it just me, or does a disproportionate number of apostates smoke?.

  Will trade memorial for 2 hours talk with apostate

  by Faraon in

  2. friends

  according to our divorce agreement between my ex and i, i would get our daughters all school holidays in exchange for memorial day, and the other three yearly propaganda meetings.

  key is that she had to tell me their dates by february 2 of the year in session.

  she did not tell me, so i told her that i would not let her have them next thursday unless she talked to me about religion for two hours.

  after much deliberation, i decided to go "out" at the end of a public talk.

  it didn't go down too well, but at least i was able to give some of my reasons for leaving.. i've put some of the details on my homepage.

  i'll update it more when i get the time and the strength.

  How Does One Find Another Religion

  by pettygrudger in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this is probably a strange question, but how do you "pick" something else to study?

  i'm having a hard time just picking up the bible & reading it - but i'm terrified of picking up any "study material" from other organized religions to help.

  which bible do i use?
