  SBF,

  I rarely comment on your musings. You often make a lot of sense. I see rationals and those who are striving to live an evidence based life, regardless of the topic, rather than militant atheists with an agenda.

  A very few concentrate on these subjects. I typically just read and rarely participate. It isn't a strength of mine nor a particular interest.

  Where we always divide is between the evidence based and those ruled by their emotions. On every topic.

  Clammy is clearly in the emotional camp. Thanks for the Dislike CB.

  Clambake,

  This site is full of OPs you seek. Get some self control dude. Develop some emotional maturity. Avoid these OPS if they bother you so much. Back away from the keyboard.

  And do something about that shrill whine. It's hurting my ears. But thank you so much for the Dislike. I will wear it with pride.

  Island Man,

  Great stuff. Most of this I had read in various places. Putting it all together in this manner makes me even more embarrassed that I ever believed this nonsense.

  It's called culling the DNA herd. And the winner of this year's Darwin Award goes to . . . . . . .

  Indoctrinate them at a young age. Baptize them at a young age. Trap them in the cult by the threat of Shunning. It is the trifecta of evil. The Dark Lords' strategy to mitigate THIS:

  Outsider,

  As mentioned, Dubs often clean houses, etc. for a living because they are discouraged from seeking higher education, they bought into the lie that they will soon be living in paradise, etc. As a result, JWs are the religion with the lowest education and family income. As for leaving, yes, nearly 2/3 leave. It would no doubt be much higher if they got rid of the shunning policy. The best research on this comes from the Pew Foundation:

  Honestly, Did Jehovah's Witnesses Do Anything POSITIVE For You?

  i was raised as a witness and am very thankful that i am out.

  having said that, i think my upbringing produced positive qualities in me.

  do you believe that anything positive came from your being a witness?

  Charles Darwin was not an Atheist

  by LAWHFol in

  personally i have the same viewpoint of darwin, when he said : " the safest conclusion seems to me to be that the whole subject is beyond the scope of man's intellect".

  i'm not trying to convince anyone about the existence or non existence of god.. rather, i encourage everyone to keep seeking.

  keep searching for the truth that makes the most sense to them.. darwin is the grand father of evolution, and his findings and life work, did not make of him an atheist.

  OTWO,

  Great picture; great T shirt. As I've noted before, I try not to "believe' in anything. The only thing necessary to believe is to feel. The sooner we can all evolve to live an evidence based life the better we - and the planet - will be for it.

  "Is there any way we could just start a new forum that couldn’t be accessed without a second membership to just deal with Evolution, Darwin, Dawkins etc etc." - Clambake

  CB,

  Change the channel. Don't click on it. Ignore it. It won't go away if you do, but by doing so it will spare you unnecessary anguish and spare the rest of us having to wade through your whiney ass responses. Win/Win.

  This is how I watch cable news whenever I'm someplace that has it. I typically don't - not because I don't like the news, but because I can't stand the commercials. Every single one of them is about some old person whose body isn't working. They can't get an erection (ED), can't breathe (COPD), can't stop peeing in their pants, they've fallen and they can't get up or some other condition most typically caused by their life choices. I watch something else so that I won't be a whiney ass. Like you.

  The only thing that exceeds your whiney-assedness is your lack of self control.

  Blame Shifting - The devil made me do it. It is a pathetic part of our species. We will never fulfill the potential in our DNA unless and until we take full ownership of our actions, thoughts and behaviors and stop blaming something or someone else for our fukk-ups and our fukked up personality traits.
