They encouraged me to do research into the Background of the Bible- and being a Thinker, I figured it interesting...expecting to find all KINDS of holes and fallacies.
Your first thought was correct.

So, if nothing else, you LEARNED about God and Christ!
So true. That part of my brain is now filled with useless information.

So, the Womens March ... What Is It For?
by Simon init seems like mobilizing after the election, which seems pointless.
i keep hearing demands for equal rights but don't understand what rights they are missing exactly.. normally a march is to show the support (and potential votes) for a cause, but ... votes for what?
... and the election happened already.. is anyone else confused?

This thread reminds me of exactly why I quit this site, short sighted morons that have no idea what empathy is and can't think more than two inches in front of them.
Let the reader use discernment on what the two inches aren't. (Hint: Satisfying, especially when 2" is being generous).

Where We Jews (and Religionists) Have Not Been So Forthcoming
by David_Jay inbecause i feel some people have become confused in thinking that i am promoting religion or thinking that being jewish is some type of special gift that makes me better, i am writing to tell you that i don’t feel this way.
think of this as your christmas gift (or chanukah or festivus or whatever).. despite the fact that i too practice a religion, i also think atheism is a purposeful and noble use of the mind.
too often people with a religion have only bad things to say about atheism and atheists.

I was very surprised by this allegation about Heartsafire who is normally only very kind and encouraging with her comments and tried to find these alleged offensive comments by her but was unable. How about you quote them or post a link Viviane?
Heartsafire said people concerned with facts were misers and sharks. This is an illustration of how it looks when you decides facts and reality are irrelevant. I purposely picked outrageous examples to highlight the absurdity of that notion.
It's also an excellent illustration that more people need to read Swift and Machiavelli.

i know people who have done exactly this.
you have to commit a sin and you or someone else has to tell a elder.

Actually, you can be DF'ed if they think you've broken their rules with zero evidence.
So, as usual, a JW is telling only the part of the story that doesn't make the JWs look like total assholes.

Why Finding the One True Religion is Impossible
by Simon injws like to think they have found the one true religion.
but like so many other religious people, it's usually the religion they were born into, the only religion they know because it's the first one they found or, at the most, one of two or three (typically the second one after they left their first / born-in faith).. the trouble is, there simply isn't enough time to explore and investigate each and everyone of the many thousands of belief systems, religions and sects around the world.. think of it this way: which is the best neighbourhood to live in where you would be most happy and most successful?
not just in the city or even the country you are in, but the entire world.. how would you ever know?

It makes sense that god used the pyramids measurements in imperial units to reveal prophecy that didn't come true, A Believer?

Heartsafire, I find your use of slave labor to type our posts praising Pol-Pot to high quite offensive.
And before you start on "business" and trying to troll us, don't be a pedantic "factshark" worried about "reality" and "what happened" and be "leaking blood in the water".
