I HAD MY BICYCLE STOLEN!
by Terry inthree months ago i had to stop driving my car.
it wouldn't pass inspection and it would cost about $3k to get it up to par.. well, it's a 98 honda accord with about 179 thousand miles on it, what did i expect?.
.. i decided i would switch to riding a bicycle instead.. it has worked out fairly well.. i put about 10 miles a day on it.

I feel so similar.. I no longer have the obsessional fascination with the org is up to.. nor in what they are saying, printing, doing or claiming. I no longer obsess over posts here critiquing or analysing them either as I just am not interested any more. It's no longer any part of my life. It means about as much to me as watching paint dry. Zero. I'm so over it.
I can liken it to a relationship that has ended painfully but now I really don't feel a thing for that person any more.
And yes this site was a great aid in weaning me off my Org dependancy and I am very grateful to everyone's contributions for that.
I'm Free!!!

If Jehovah God Really Loved Humans & This Earth How Might He Show It?

2. As a parent who tells their child not to touch the stove because it's hot and they will get burned, if the child is nonstop reaching for the hot stove everyday to stop the child from ever touching it, they may eventually conclude since they are not listening they won't stop their child next time and after getting burned they won't do it anymore.
And a God allowing 1,400 innocent children in Yorkshire England to be sexually molested and violently gang raped over almost a 10 year period teaches them that they should not do what any more?
4. God has great plans in store for humans, involving life throughout the universe. He knows that people will obey/follow rule books if they know for sure it's from him, but he wants to see how 'good' they are if they feel he does not exist or maybe there is no future accountability, so he is testing the true character of people.
That right there is utter cold cruelty and insanity.. Was not Adam given rules? You mean like a mother abandoning and dumping her helpless new born in a garbage dumpster just to see if it's really a good child and has a nice character?
I really love your teaching.. what church are you in I'd really like to join?! -

in the hope of eternal life, which god, who does not lie, promised before the beginning of time (titus 1:2).

I agree that we cant let bad groups or organizations turn us away from God.
I agree too.. the God of the Witnesses seems to manage that just fine by himself..

That indeed really sucks Terry, very sorry to hear this story especially when it's one's main mode of transport. I know just has this feels as have had a few nice bikes stolen in my time.
I had a completely hand built Claude Butler Specialised Touring bike get stolen once.. in today's terms it would be maybe a £3,000 bike. I left it inside a public library while I dropped my books off for less then 30 seconds and it was gone. I was utterly gutted.
Your not an idiot at all, these things happen, sadly we have to develop often the painful way the awareness that we are surrounded often by not very honest or nicest of people. Hope you manage to get some kind of replacement soon.

If you still believe in God, what are your thoughts on the Bible?
by ilikecheese indo you believe it's inerrant?
do you believe it's based on things that happened, but a lot of it may just be stories and it's not perfect because men wrote it?
do you think it's just a good guide?

I think about God quite a bit... but not thinking about the Bible or reading it.

By showing himself... That would solve every single problem that has ever plagued humanity since time began.

Untheocratic!
by Atlantis inhow can it be said that gods visible organizationwas made strictly theocratic or was fully theocratic in structure by 1938, when there are revisions and changes from time to time in organization instructions?.
.. first of all, we must recognize what is meant when we say gods visible organization was made strictly or fully theocratic.
the term theocracy means god rule or rule by god.

Poster with basic math on shunning - for JW parents
by Fernando inyour thoughts on such a poster?.
(http://religions.pewforum.org/reports says: "jehovah's witnesses have the lowest retention rate of any religious tradition.
only 37% of all those who say they were raised as jehovah's witnesses still identify themselves as jehovah's witnesses.").
