writing this) that christians much later identified as satan.

race directly from Satan when he bumped the nesties with Eve.
Of course many religionist believe the "Serpent seed" is heresy, false teaching, but
it isn't really important how they feel or what they say, because religionists are
rarely ever right when it comes to finding the truth.
The first adulterous, Eve. We were screwed from the start.
this is a question for ex jw's who have joined another christian faith group.
the purpose of my question iis to find out which christian faith group you chose after leaving watchtower and what convinced you to travel this new spiritual path you are on.
i am interested to know because i personally would like to find a genuine faith group where i can feel true christian liberty as i initially thought i had with the witnesses.
dubstepped: every opinion is good here, we are all in the same boat. I agree the God
bashing and shaming will change most people's mind but isn't it a good thing.
Don't you think by challenging belief in God will either make them strong or weak in
their faith? Isn't that the point, to find your own way, to stand on your own two feet.
People here are thinking now, something we didn't do in Jehovah loving organization.
since we seem to be growing with new members or lurkers here is a repeat of a test about where you are when it comes to religious beliefs or not:.
here isthe site and how i tested:.
http://www.findmyreligion.com/ start at number 1 for the religious test.. i just took the test and scored: .
Secular 64.3%
Gnostic

Why do people join a Christian denomination in the first place, to help them
get through life perils, not an easy road. I was raised in the Baptist church became
a JW age 21, left JW age 40 and back to Baptist. Between 45-50 years of age I began
to read the Bible, Wow.
I don't know if there was a connection with my anxiety problems (really bad), but my life
without following a bunch of religious rules have been great.
Some believe Humanism is a religion for atheists/agnosticism, maybe.
But I know for a fact I am a better person today and life is easy.
I am the black sheep of the family, JW family are praying for my return, the other christians
family members are praying for my soul. I don't preach my belief, they are the ones that is
so dogmatic about my (like) of happiness. LOL
how would it be possible in 1,000 years to resurrect and educate the billions now in the grave?.
nevertheless, an illustration reveals what a simple, practical thing jehovah has in mind for mankind.
not to prophesy, but merely for the purpose of illustration, let us assume that those who compose the great crowd of righteous persons who come out of the great tribulation on this system of things alive (re 7:9, 14) number about 6,000,000 (about 1/1000 of earths present population).
I'm resurrected and the first person I meet, a JW elder in suit and tie. He tells me,
james you must shave and a hair cut. We have five meetings a week and you must attend
and here is a list for our Kingdom songs. We have a special class for you new arrivals
the subjects, "Don't be mislead by your sexual desires", and "A thousand years without sex".
Now go have fun my son.
so i was hoping to get some insight on this subject of telling your spouse that you no longer believe in god.
for two people who have been jehovahs witnesses for 20 years together, talking about this seems to be real hard for me.
i still pray with my wife before meals but that's about it.
1) The consistent replacement of supernatural explanation of the world with natural ones.
2) The inconsistency of world religions.
3) The weakness of religions argument, explanation and apologetics.
4) The increasing diminishment of God.
5) The fact that religions runs in families.
6)) The complete failure of any sort of supernatural phenomena to stand up
to rigorous testing. (having faith don't cut the mustard, not today).
7) The slipperiness of religious and spiritual belief, especially JW.
8) The failure of religion to improve or clarity after 2000 years.
