Very confident and self-assured women? I've heard a rumor that such existed, along with unicorns and fairies. Just kidding.

Fraz,
Ditto. Ditto. Ditto. Kate, good luck to you. I hope you find what you are seeking, but the Borg is evil. They will likely have henchmen who watch this site and your comings and goings - including your dating experiences. Unless you desire to become a nun, go to all of the meetings dressed in sackcloth and ashes sitting in the back gettting there right before the song and leaving right after the prayer and jump through all of the other hoops they will be holding up for you, and do all of these things for as long as the evil little men desire, you are wasting your time.
But good luck. Keep us posted (or maybe that isn't a good idea).

This is the same arugment used by religionists against atheists (god is dead, morals will go in the tank) in the past and the present. And yet, as has been pointed out and supported by excellent data several times on this site, the more secular/atheistic a state, region, nation is, the more functional, educated and intelligent it is likely to be. A better title of the OP:
"All Moralists (those concerned with regulating the morals of other) are Dead." and its sister topic: "All Religions are dead." Now that would be a great OP!!!

How many of you followed the WTS direction on education years ago and have been screwed by it?
by Julia Orwell ini'm really interested in this question because i've heard for years that if you forgo further education and go pioneering, when you have a family down the track you will get a good job because jehovah will provide for you because you pioneered.
as long as i was a kool-aid drinker, even then, i thought, "how does pioneering pay your bills?
surely education should come first.

Julia,
Ditto to DisArmed. You've heard (read) my story before. I left college - and a full scholarship - because of the Borg's influence. Upon exiting the Borg I returned to college, completed by undergraduate degree, then completed an MBA and am now pursuing a PhD. It has opened many, many doors and has enriched my life - and my bank account - immeasureably.

Congregation Pledge Disgusted Elder
by rrb2016 inat the meeting the other night, the elder who had to read the announcements, which included the $$ info for the new donation arrangement seemed downright disgusted as he read the announcements and asked for the vote.
he said, "well, here is another organizational change" as he read the letter about the discontinuation of the 2nd meeting during co visit.
then after they voted, he said if you have any questions ask this other elder as if he wanted nothing to do with it.

"Just like back in the late 1980s when they went to offering the mags free and were used to solicit a donation in order not to pay taxes on the sale, so too this new arrangement of pledges will back fire on them. They are desperate and are makeing very stupid moves that are going to cost them big time in the near future."
Let's hope so. I remember not being able to keep my disgust about the begging for alms, I mean donation, arragnement for the mags nstituted by the GB. I thought it one of the stupidest decisions in the history of these stupid men, and god knows there have been many. I shared my views with a few close friends and then, realizing I had to remain in lockstep like a good Dub leader, made the decision to tell the rank and file it was up to them but I wouldn't suggest or encourage them to carry their little envelopes for keeping the $ during FS. And I didn't lead by example.
That was one of the first steps toward the exit for me. Hopefully this stupid, greedy grab for $ will be likewise to many more.

YES, you CAN shag your friends maid!!! It's all good !!
by DATA-DOG in20 if a man lies carnally with a woman who is a slave, betrothed to another man and not yet ransomed or given her freedom, an inquiry shall be held.
they shall not be put to death, because she was not free; 21 but he shall bring a guilt offering for himself to the lord , to the door of the tent of meeting, a ram for a guilt offering.
22 and the priest shall make atonement for him with the ram of the guilt offering before the lord for his sin which he has committed; and the sin which he has committed shall be forgiven him.. leviticus 19:20-22.

Ah yes, I long for the good old days when women were property to do with as one pleased. As long as you had enough sheep, camels and cattle. But I suppose if you replace sheep, camels and cattle with wealth, power and fame, nothing much has really changed! Just kidding.

Bill, Heart and Freedom,
I usually ignore VG because of her broad-brushed, reactionary manner/rants. She's also a very angry person (men, elders, gay men (well maybe she likes poor gay men), men with large stomachs who can easily get laid while fat women can't, etc. - I think there may be a pattern here (penis envy???)).
But this one is just too easy. From NBC News. The Williams Institute has been in the forefront of analyzing and reporting this type of data on the LGBT community for many years and is one iof the most credible sources for this data:
By Barbara Raab
May 31, 2013
NBC News
"When gays and lesbians are featured in popular culture, what do we see? White, wealthy women who host talk shows or affluent men doting on their kids — like Mitchell and Cameron from “Modern Family.” So it’s no wonder that the conventional wisdom is that gay people in America have tons of money and fewer economic struggles than the rest of the population.
But the truth is significantly different.
“I think people are surprised there are any poor gay people,” says M.V. Lee Badgett, professor of economics and research director for The Williams Institute, a national think tank at UCLA Law School researches sexual orientation and gender identity law and public policy. “This ‘myth of gay affluence’ has been around for a long time. It gets in the way of people even imagining that LGBT people can be poor.”
On Monday, the Williams Institute will release a detailed study about lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people and their real economic status. Drawing on recent data from four different sources, the report finds a sexual orientation “poverty gap”: LGBT Americans are more likely to be poor than heterosexuals, with African-Americans and women particularly vulnerable."

zed, i agree. I think Focus uses a bit (a lot?) of hyperbole to make a point. That is how I took it and meant it.

God Says Scripture is Enough
by Perry infrom the 2013 new world translation 2 tim.
all scripture is inspired of god and beneficial for teaching, for reproving, for setting things straight, for disciplining in righteousness, so that the man of god may be fully competent, completely equipped for every good work.. .
as jw's we must have read that scripture a thousand times.

Perry,
I'm not glad that you are back, but you do seem to have ratcheted back some of your preaching and are less llikely to enter non-theist posts with nothing but your jesus mantras. I thank you for that. Viv and Designs: good luck trying to reach Perry. Don't give up though because it seems, over time, we have had some success in tempering the pontificatory preaching and proseletyzing of the newly (self) appointed Governing Body members of this site and those delusional narcissists who have a direct link to the big girl in the sky and special knowledge of scripture and how the big girl thinks. Some even seem to have gone away, probably to the Rev's site where their narcissistic, delusional mantras can be read and fawned over by each other.
So continue figting the fine fight. We are winning a lot of small battles and likely a lot of big ones as well.

@ Focus: "I was a deluded dumbass, a retard, a moron, a fool, an idiot, a gullible naive cretin. I must not feel sorry for myself, but instead cringeingly apologetic to all others I tried to preach to or to convert, and thus tried to infect them with the foul, disgusting mental disease that I carried. I am very angry with myself and with the Wicked Watchtower Cult which scammed me."
The only thing I would add is to use the anger as rocket fuel to accomplish as much as possible in life: education, travel, culture, art, etc., etc., and whatever fuels your fire. Anger can be a positive emotion if used correctly. Focus, I was a born-in, so can I get a bit of a reprieve?!! LOL.
