The (ancient) globalised world - Ancient Israel imported cinnamon from India
by fulltimestudent inone of my specific interests (when i started at university) was the interconnectiveness of the ancient world.
and the more i've learned in the past 6 years, the more i've seen that the ancient euro/asian world was connected.
a network of trading routes and markets exchanged goods and wealth, and along with the traded items went traded ideas and concepts.

has shunning been downplayed?
by chickpea inseveral times over the course of a year or so, jws from the kh i attended have been downright chatty during happenstance crossing of paths... .
wth is up with that?
i have no grudges against any of them, but it is confusing as all get out to have left the cult as an ardent supporter of my out, open, front page headlining transgender son, becoming vocally and decidely apostate knowing i was dead to them... now after at least a half decade out, to have them chummy-ing up to me in a check-out line.... frankly, i would rather they look the other way, you know, if none of them would ever genuinely want to know how my son is doing.

You Found Out You're In A Cult Of Lies, What Are Your Options Do I Stay In Or Do I Leave?
by frankiespeakin inthat is a question only you can answer.
there is no right or wrong answers unless you are steeped in black and white thinking.. some choose to stay in for family reasons, some are so heated up over being decieved they can't give them another minute of time or labor.
meeting are a tedious and tremendous bore once you see the man behind the curtain(wizzard of oz).

Is Richard Dawkins giving atheists a bad name?
by slimboyfat inhe just can't seem to stop himself taunting "these muslims" or "some muslim or other".
among his favourite taunts are:.
"all the world's muslims have fewer nobel prizes than trinity college, cambridge.".
