  Some of my classmates chose to go with an "intuitionist" argument, ie "Everyone feels it's wrong, so it must be." That doesn't cut it. Not only have there been societies which condone murder but there have been societies that feel eating pork is a grave sin. So the intuitionist argument is a poor one.

  Like I've said, I don't see how it is possible to prove that murder is wrong. Even if one believes in God you can always ask, "Well, why should I listen to God or think His opinion is better than mine?" It's a slippery slope.

  Satanus,

  Well, that's part of the problem, isn't it? My prof just gave us the task, "Give me a proof why murder is wrong" and let us have a free-for-all. Personally, I don't think it is possible to prove that murder is wrong, but my prof says there is a way (which he didn't tell us!).

  Anyway, I'd define murder as...."The willful taking of an innocent life absent from any substantiated reason to believe it is for the greater good."

  There.

  Joker,

  Instead of just giving us sound bytes of your sarcastic, condescending ideas, why don't you give us something more substantial? Ah, but that would mean creating a constructive dialogue using logical arguments and framing your position in an intelligent manner. Never mind.

  I like my name. I've been told my name sounds like a conservative politician, though.

  J. Bradley Potts

  The J. stands for John, but I like the sound and mystery of going with just the first initial. Kinda like "M. Scott Peck" or "G.K. Chesterton."

  All your recommendations on how to develop a social network....here

  one of the most difficult aspects of leaving the jws is finding a new social network to replace the social network you have lost.

  finding friends among the jws is not usually a difficult task, but finding them outside the organization can be daunting, especially considering you were told not to develop a social life "in the world.

  " discussion boards like this are great...but not enough.

  What are your suggestions, both as to what attitudinal approach to take as well as practical ways to meet people?
