how many here have been active here on this site in the the last seven days?.
I've been on this site since 2001 I would say 75% of that time I was active, 75% of 17 years=13+years.(excuse me but I thought you meant years)(got read more).
I click in on work days usually about an hour or two after I get home, smoking cannabis gives me the urge to comment more, some days I don't post anything but just read different posts. I definitely like the way group is trending and find it a useful source of JW information.
i know that a lot of the people on here have turned their backs on the idea of a deity deciding that god does not exist.
but what about the unseen spirit world generally such as poltergeists, jinns, voodoo, etc.
if you have become agnostic, atheist, or just don't care since leaving, do you think that there are spirits out there or have you decided that is also hokum?
Agreed. Leave room for scepticism but don't accept a materialist bias solution as an only option either.

Gradually we have found all things obey the laws of physics, they just seem like magic.
I'm thinking elegant computer code with some high tech mathematics, maybe some chaos theory, and fractals to express the complex with a very simple formula of some sort.

O and I think this guy is very entertaining in reading his audience I'm sure his hits get better and better as he practices his art. Everybody's got to make a living and it is a ++ if you're good at it and enjoy it and people get some type of relief by it! At least he seems to, me I'm more into music myself and would like to unleash my psychic powers in that direction

BB,
I would sure like to know what it was, though!
I'm thinking maybe the brain has developed abilities to read other peoples thoughts, evolution may have hit on it as it would be a definite advantage for survival of the fittest to pass on in their DNA.
I think also the probability of universe being simulation and the Many Worlds Interpetation many offer some possible explanation.
To be an extreme materialist leaves only a narrow window to look at the world, it is good to leave a little more room for explanations of these things, Many Worlds, and a computer simulation hypothesis may be something a materialist could use if they loosen up a bit.

I'm leaning towards -> the universe is a computer simulation, many world's interpretation, and possible reincarnation of essence.
I leave a little room for the belief in the paranormal and don't categorically deny it as a fraud or a hokes which some of it is but not all of it, my dear Watson.
Anger even rage is natural in my case I was super pissed off back in 2001 when I found out the Watchtower corporation was all bull shit and that for trying to get my friends and family out I was disfellowshipped. I had revenge fantasies, the works, I had a lot of steam I had to blow off so I went for long hikes in the mountains and far from any one I would shout out my rage that was bottled up inside.
I think the whole thing is our sense of justice needs to be satisfied some how. After my rage subsided which took a couple of years, I proceeded into a process to find my true self, I still look forward to the complete demise of the Watchtower corporation but am much more interested in understanding the real me.
i foresee great a very tumultuous road ahead for our dearly beloved governing body, or god(guardians of doctrine).
they need a much more flexible approach to these problems, instead of being narrow mindedly ridged, which seems to be almost impossible for these hyper brain washed fools for corporate jehovah.. looks like am#3 will be the most inflexible since he and corporate jehovah seems to know what each other is thinking and feeling, iow am#3 really thinks he can read jehovah mind that why we affectionately call him tight pants tony, he's probably a closet gay that gets real excited by nice looking brothers in tight pants, and perhaps a camel toe or two has caught his gaze(must keep those things hidden).
i don't see him ever jumping ship he looks like he will ride the watchtower vessel to the bottom of the ocean.. will some future events lead to a big deflection in governing body loyalties?
Surely this is a time that try men's soul, the Governing Body sit in God's Chariot driver's seat and it seem they are putting the peddle to the metal. Will they steer God's chariot off a financial cliff(bankruptcy) don't worry it flies.
I think they will make a total bunch of financial and legal mistakes because they truly believe their own bullshit. A few may give up wishful thinking/hoping for Jehovah to protect their sorry ass and so time to get the hell out their bethel shit hole and watch the great organization bite the financial dust.
