What I got from reading scientific material about evolution is: There is no such thing as micro- or macro-evolution. Only people who don't really understand evolution talk about this. (I read a lot about but I can't say I truly understand evolution. There needs a lot more studying to do for me. However many evolutionary biologists don't understand everything as the more they find out even more needs to be researched).

Not all JWs commit evil acts.
I know many who don't agree with "shunning". And I know many who would never let their child die. One sister who is working ss operational nurse in a big hospital told me that many JWs in that hospital agree to blood transfusion, just secretly.
I think most JWs are not evil at all. They are just victims of thst cult.

You probably have been a JW before. Have you been that terribly evil person before you became an ex JW?

"Whether it be the blood issue (children have died on tables) or Nazi Germany/Malawi...."
I agree that the blood issue has cost many lives. But I don't agree at all what you write about Nazi Germany. How the witnesses reacted during Nazi Germany times is something they can truly be proud of. Most Germans went with the majority and hailed Hitler as their leader and saviour. The witnesses were among the minority who couragously used their mental faculties at that time even if it meant torture and death.
I live in Switzerland and in Germany.

FuGK This Religion- Stop Ruining My Life!!!
by wallievase ini am sorry for the title but today just took the cake.
after not going to the meetings since august and trying to sort through this with my family, my wife today told me she wants to separate because of our differences over being a witness or not.. this is ridiculous.
so i said- how can you separate from me when the religion you whole heartedly believe says you can only separate for 3 reasons- abuse, willful non-support, or stopping her from her meeting attendance, etc.

Islam - Where Does This End?
by Sam Whiskey indoes this end with them actually attempting to take over the world as they profess to want to do?
granted, they are "extremists", but can they really garner enough extremist converts to make a run at it?
keep in mind, i have no fear of them.

Of course I am shocked and sad about what is happening there.
History is repeating itself that in the name of God, the most horrible things happen.
Nevertheless. IS IS NOT ISLAM. They are brainwashed fundamentalists who exist also in other religions.

Evidence of life after death?
by little_Socrates inhttp://www.independent.co.uk/news/science/life-after-death-largestever-study-provides-evidence-that-out-of-body-and-neardeath-experiences-may-actually-be-real-9780195.html.
"experts currently believe that the brain shuts down within 20 to 30 seconds of the heart stopping beating and that it is not possible to be aware of anything at all once that has happened.. but scientists in the new study heard said they heard compelling evidence that patients experienced real events for up to three minutes after this had happened and could recall them accurately once they had been resuscitated.".
how are people having "experinces" while there is no evidence of heart or brain activity?.

Probably humans will never be able to scientific evidence of a possible afterlife.
Nevertheless these near death experiences contain elements that can not be put aside and just explained scientifically. For example when someone is clinically dead or has no brain function and explains in detail what doctors or family members said or did, even in other rooms of the hospital.
JWs would say that the demons were involved.

Most JW don't have the truth right now.
Because....
...the truth changed on Saturday. From Saturday onward Gog is not Satan anymore. Hardly anyone of the r&f know this.
I just told it my parents yesterday. I know how they would react. They don't care at all.
