  Flooded Kingdoms of the Ice Age - re: The Flood

  by Celtic in

  2. friends

  very interesting documentary on channel4 this evening, all about the sunken kingdoms, civilisations off india's east and west coasts.

  both of these sunken cities are only now being seriously underwater archaelogically surveyed.

  the one on the east coast is of massive dimensions, incedibly technologically advanced civilisation pre dating anything else thus far seen.

  yadirf was re-instated to the forum.. so it's possible to get disfellowshipped from this forum!.

  sounds as if a new jw standard is being introduced here.

  re-instating, disfellowshipping.

  Avengers: There was no judicial meeting, so there was no disfellowshipping.

  A sickening example of religious vampirism

  by expatbrit in

  the link below leads to a webpage for a play entitled it's not too late: a christian drama/musical inspired by the columbine tragedy.. here is the synopsis of the play:.

  the story takes place during one day at a high school.. .

  mr. brooks is the custodian of the high school.

  ExpatBrit, I love the way you cut Dickelentz down to size! I couldn't have agreed more with what you say. Religion furthering it's agenda through emotional blackmail is sickening.

  Unfortunately they always have some idealogical black hole to throw even the most well-thought-out of arguments into, such as the one that God is all-powerful, or that you must have faith or you will not understand. This is one of the things that truly annoys me about Christians - they base their lives on a flawed book of fairytales written by God only knows who, 99% of the time not even bothering to investigate any of it's teachings, and then expect us to believe it too.

  They are the prisoners inside their own minds, and they will be trapped there until they die.

  Mindchild: If you're reading this, I just remembered an interesting sci-fi short story I read once where the author mentioned that religion and dreaming were both the direct results of a tiny parasitic creature which came from another star system a million years ago. This parasitic creature apparently lived off human brain waves, and eventually became so integrated with the human race that we don't even know it's there now. He said it was the frontal lobe

  Is this world ruled by Demons and are we?

  by Mindchild in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  to me, one of the most pathetic and lamest of all watchtower teachings is the fantasy that satan and the demons rule the world.

  the witnesses are terrified of these demons getting into their minds through everything from wearing old clothes bought at the thrift store to smoking cigarettes (remember all drugs give demons easy access to your mind.).

  they would have you believe that each country on earth is controlled by really big mean and tough demons (hey demons cant be nice you know) and they are actively controlling the minds of the political leaders in a global chess game because they have nothing better to do.. i was wondering then if anyone can show me a single itsy bitsy tiny amount of evidence to show any credible physical evidence or logical/metaphysical reasoning to back the jw ideological boogey men.

  Sometimes I wonder if I'm chatting with a bunch of demons on this board

  I find Satanists and Dubs to be equally amusing. Unfortunately both religions have their dark side, which often involves people (and sometimes animals) dying senseless deaths, which I'm very much against. But both make me laugh when they get all serious and start talking about demons and stuff. Once a friend of mine told my peer group at school that he had an Oiuja (how the hell do you spell that?) board...so needless to say, everyone ran down to his house after school and they were all sitting their, the fear was palpable, and I was laughing my sorry white ASS off at the sheer sheep-ness of these ppl. I had a stomach ache for days. Oh, and the O board didn't do it's job, I think Satan must have been pissed with me for laughing at his creation, so he forgot to talk with us

  Superstition is so, like, last millenium, d00d!

  Get a RealDoll(TM) damnit! You'll feel better...I think it's pretty stupid doing things like this on a forum with this much traffic. About five zillion people are reading this, man...what did you think this was, a private board? *IDIOT* There are a lot of people here who happen to be close to the person you are dishing this out to, and we don't appreciate character attacks at all here.

  Cope, whippersnapper!

  Being a Dub did teach me to have EXCELLENT self-control - I've never had a drop to drink in my entire life...I doubt that if I ever get married (?) I will even drink then...it's just not something I'm prepared to do! None of my friends can understand it. But I have other reasons for not drinking too, such as the fact that all 3 generations of men leading up to yours truly were (and some still are) hardcore alcoholics, so I reckon I'm not gonna take that particular risk.

  I also don't use substances - sure I've experimented a few times (don't we all!) but that's about it. Once again, I have solid reasons (unlike the WTBTS, which is basically just a body of beliefs founded on a book of fairytales really) for not using drugs like X and Cat...I see what they're doing to my friends, and I don't wanna be in that boat, thx.

  Sitting in meetings for a large fraction of my life has also given me the ability to sleep with my eyes open (this was immensely handy in high school )!

  Like a lot of people on this board I've lost a large part of my life and many experiences I could have had to the WTBTS, and this is something that I cannot change, so I don't mull over it and blame anybody. My parents honestly thought they were helping their kids by becoming Dubs - this I know for a fact, and I love them because of it. Little did they know how much damage they would do in the coming years, and that the Dub religion would be the acid that would melt the ties that bind in my family. Oh well, that's all water under the bridge, no point whining about spilt milk. I try to live each day like it's my last, and it works - I've come a long way from that desolate place when I left the BOrganization in 1999.

  I did it without God, and also probably more importantly, without Satan.

  Now I'm my own man - I make the decisions, not a bunch of old Do0dZ in Borglyn. I'm allowed to use my mind again, and I realize that looking back on all that time in the BOrg, that was the one thing that was denied of me, and the only thing that allowed me to escape.
