Thanks for sharing

what a crazy, emotional ride it is to finally face the truth about the doubts that i have carried for many years.

The mathematical probability of spontaneous order (no designer/creator)
by Fernando inthere seem to be many prerequisites for life as we know it.. to name a few: order, function, compatibility, availability, sustainability, intelligence, consciousness, intuition and so on.. focusing on only one, namely order.. what are the chances of order arising spontaneously, by chance, with no creator/designer?.
i have often pondered this and recently came across a mathematical summary of the big picture:.
if every particle in the known physical universe (10^80 particles), participated in one trillion interactions (10^12 interactions) per second, for the entire 30 billion years of the universe's existence (10^18 seconds), then we would by now have covered only 10^110 permutations.. if you had only 100 components in a container, what are the chances that a blindfolded person could lay them out in order on a table?.

Fernando, you make a good point. The building blocks of chemistry, amino acids and DNA are all very precise and I don't think it's probable for them to have formed without some kind of guidance.

Vinman, welcome to JWN. I still believe in a creator of some kind. I don't think he is benevolent but I do still believe.

Dating After Leaving?
by Garrett inhey guys,.
this is going to be a topic of a different nature.
so, while i am not looking to date at the current moment since i'm still trying to figure out who i am and what i want life, i do want to start dating in the near future.. my issue is that i've been in for almost all my life and it's left a big hole when it comes to my romantic life.. i was wondering, after leaving, did any of you date?

why when a person is dis fellowship the elders and others act like all hope is gone and refuse help that person come back to God's Word
by ray83 ini been married to my husband for almost 9 years.
he's been a witness his whole life but got disfellowship a little over 15 years ago.
before his dis fellowshiping he was very active.

Disfellowshiping is all nonsense. The elders make up their own rules. It can be harsh and unloving if you don't have a family member on the body of elders. They can just forget about you and keep saying no to reinstatement.
I suggest you tell your husband to stop trying now cos it's nonsense.
Good luck

Long Time Lurker
by the comet init took a few years but i finally decided to join yesterday.
my background, born-in, still go to meetings for family reasons, i am inactive however.

KateWild
Welcome the comet, Thanks for your post...it's nice to see lurkers finally posting.
I see you're still in for family but you woke up five years ago. That is a long time to still go to meetings.
Are you struggling to keep sane at meetings? How do you cope? Do you want true freedom?
Take care

What did you become after leaving Jehovah's Witnesses?
by Garrett inhey guys,.
so, since my leaving i have been doing so much research on so many topics that it's been extremely enlightening.
not only have i learned a lot about the organization and what motivates it, but i have also learned a lot about the bible, god and most importantly, myself.. currently, i'm not quite sure where i stand, but i'm having some real issues with the bible and god.

Garret, I don't really know what I became when I learned TTATT. I suppose it has been a process of learning and I am still learning.
At present I have enough evidence to suggest the process of evolution was guided by a higher power. But also that higher power is not benevolent in any way. If the processes I am talking about have more evidence that they are unguided I will change my view.
So I am probably deist at the moment.
