So their the very essence of love so we are taught so then why at Luke 14:26 Jesus says in order to be his follower you must hate your mother, father, wife, brothers and sisters. Then you must renounce everything you have. Wow just plain Wow, and they call me crazy! More proof that Christians and JWs never read that vile book we call the Bible.

My New Fascination - Evolution!
by pale.emperor insince leaving watchtower i kind of hit the "reset" button in my mind and reevaluated what i thought i knew, what i believe and i require proof for every idea put before me before i commit to it.
lately i've been fascinated with evolution.
as a jw i never even looked at the subject, dismissing it as "just a theory".

When you wake up you realize you were really living on another planet and your reality wasn't even close to the real worlds reality. The stuff I now research and learn is plain fascinating!

Romans chapter 10:13 is another good one. You have to call on the name of Jehovah to be saved yet that's not what the scriptures really say. Jesus name is the highest above all as found in Acts and phalipians. Nice find NikL!

Chemo and radiation only have a 22% remission right up to five years after the patient is considered cured or not counted at all. This means after 5 years if the cancer comes back and kills the person it's not counted against their 22%. I know plenty of people that have had success not going the standard American medical way of doing things.

The the time to study ancient religions religions and ancient history. Holy Spirit and baptism were Egyptian inventions. Read the book of the dead and you'll see all sorts of similarities. Take your time and digest things one at a time. Study science and archaeology you'll find most of what you have been told is not true. Most importantly go live life and embrace it!!

Yes god can give men dreams, visions and even talk to them face to face , but sometimes maybe when he's on the pot or smoking a cigarette he needs someone else to do it so he has messengers i.e. Angels.

Many join after the RC. They go like I did a few years ago hoping for an emotional and spiritual lift and get nothing. I did the same a few years ago under a lot of stress hoping the RC would give me a pick me up. That something said there would help me.
Nothing new of course except Lett admitting they believed in 1975. He said he didn't because no one knows the day or hour and all the other bethelites thought of him as an apostate. He of course ended up correct. But when he said this Alarm bells went off because they had denied saying anything about 1975 most of my life.
That helped me to get out of the Cult!

My wife has ADD and which is a problem, after I left the cult she has since moved to another room claiming my snoring has gotten worse. She's always busy doing something useless Facebook or playing a games on her phone. She's busy with everything but me and I'm tired of it. I was about done with her before I left the cult, now would gladly leave except for the kids. Some woman want to have fun but could careless about intimacy, and that's my wife. Except when she thought she was dying, then she was sitting by me all the time holding my hand wanting hugs etc. since she's been fixed she's back to the same.

An E-mail Exchange with an Elder
by Saename inever since i had become an atheist and started to listen to podcasts such as the one by sam harris or shows like the atheist experience, i began to think that it is my responsibility to believe as many true things and as few false things as possible.
in order to ensure that my beliefs are rationally justified, i started to follow logic, reason, and evidence.
i cannot say that all my beliefs are true, but i can definitely say that i make the efforts to ensure that they are at the very least reasonable.. i also became willing to debate people.

Just focus on the Bible and all it's many mistakes contradictions and prophecies that didn't come true. You have to pull the rug out from underneath them. With out the Bible their just exposed and naked. But again this may only work if their open minded. If not then your wasting your time. Many people will just close down because they have to much to loose if your right and their wrong. Friends, family, jobs, paradise, living forever, never getting old, etc etc.
