washington (cnn) the white house released copies of president barack obama's original long-form birth certificate wednesday, seeking to put an end to persistent rumors that he was not born in theunited states.. "we do not have time for this kind of silliness," obama told reporters at the white house.. obama's long-form birth certificate [pdf].
@LittleRockGuy: "Obama supporters and the mainstream media uses the term "conspiracy theorists" and "birthers" as buzzwords like the Watchtower Society uses the terms "apostates", which makes sense since both have cult followers."
Ouchie. That's gonna leave a mark. So witty. So creative. Cruel man, just cruel. Don't you have something better to do? Like hate on some gays? Or is that hit on some gays? I can't remember.

Hey Resident Conspiracy Theorists, there is hope for you too.
Trump finally admits Obama was born in US

original thread here.
update: so, after the meeting i had with elders a few weeks ago as outlined in my original thread, they met as a body and once again called to tell me that after considering my case they still thought a judicial committee should be held against me and asked to be there "thursday at 7:30".
all of this, i remind you, because of posting coc on facebook.
Excellent news Sanchy,
Methinks however, that the DarkLord's wraiths are simply circling and waiting.
my brother isn't a witness but he was raised one like we all were.
after 15 years living his own life he decided about a year ago to have a bible study.
this being the case, as a non baptized witness he can still speak to me but he's getting a lot of pressure not to from elders and the rest of my family.
PE,
Out of curiosity what are the specifics on your brother? I ask because I can't imaging anyone who has made a success out of their life for the past 15 years away from this dreaded cult ever considering going back to it.
My guess is that he has little to no college, is lower middle class and struggling financially, has difficulties in maintaining quality relationships and finds it challenging to discipline and control himself in what he eats, drinks, ingests, how he spends his money . . .
there seems to be confusion within christianity regarding whether or not god communicates with humans today and if he does, how does he do it?.
- does god still insert thoughts into people's minds today or is that something which he only did in the past?.
- some maintain that god is no longer giving persons dreams/visions or speaking directly to them or sending angels to speak with them today but he will nevertheless insert thoughts into their minds to guide them.
Yes. Of course she does. But her communication style obviously varies from place to place. In the American South and much of the US heartland (aka Trump Country), her most common form of communication is:
"Attention WalMart Shoppers"
this should be titled "jerks for jesus afraid of their own shadow, sexuality".
seriously, someone thinks that a video on how to be nice to people different from him is an affront to his god.

We don't hear too much vitriol from the resident gay haters these days. And that is most excellent. Tallon, I regret and am ashamed of my views towards the LGBT community when I was a dub. I drank the kool aid for a while, but this issue, as I've pointed out before, was one of the big reasons I began doubting the bible, god and religion.
It was clear to me that most gays and lesbians I knew had been that way from birth; then I realized that whether it is nature, nurture, choice or a combination it makes no difference at all. A god that judges these to death is not worthy of serving.
I've developed many friends in this community in my 20 plus years out of the DarkTower. And to my theist fiends who continue to hate while justifying your bigotry by old scrolls written by long dead men, this:
at the moment i dont beleive in anything.
im pretty much an open book, but my critical mind is very alert to bullshit.
but anyway i decided to re-read the bible with a non jw filter.. i researched online first which is supposed to be the best translation out there.
Class,
Let's all understand that the reason Hiemere is leaving so abruptly is that, like so many before her, she didn't find it as easy as she expected to spread her theist infection.
Too bad for Hiemere. Too, too bad. Yay for the human race. At least the small part of it on this site. And Hiemere, I know you WILL read this: Google "the benefits from living an evidence based life.'
That is your homework assignment. When you return Professor DJS will expect better from you.

Oh no, the elder card. Not that. Hiemere, tell me what you have against living an evidence based life? Please. Do you think we should NOT live an evidence based life when it comes to:
Health? Finances? Relationships The Environment? Diet? Exercise? The Future of the Planet? Socio-Economic Reform? Immigration? Whether Soccer is really a sport?
Which of those areas do you think it unwise to live or practice an evidence based life?
Any of them? I am assuming your answer would be there are none in that grouping where living an evidence based life would be a bad thing. If I'm assuming wrongly please re-direct.
Now. Religion?????
Princess, you are having such a fit-pitch over this. Calling me an elder is a tired, worn out ad hominem that is used by individuals who have no argument, no evidence, no data and no facts.
Buh bye.

Who said it was a hard question?
Of course I was a dub. I have clearly explained why I'm here after 20 years out of that cult and away from religion. Why are you here? You paint your catholicism as if it is a kinder and gentler x-tian cult. As a snapshot in time it has evolved to some degree to be more tolerant. But it has a long and inglorious history. So you represent every much of a cult mind controlled religion as the dubs; you're just a generation or two removed from the really horrific parts. Need I remind you? If I had to compare the dubs with the catholics and included recent and not so recent history, you don't come off looking so well.
Why are you here? What are you selling? What type of influence are you peddling? Are you trying to get converts? Do you think a site of ex-dubs is fertile hunting grounds, as so many theists before you?
Why are you here?
Do you know what I did for 20 years? Or anything else about me? And why do you take affront by those who propose a way of living and making decisions based on rational thought, evidence and facts?
