For those who have been out for 5 years or more.......

........... do you find you are now far more relaxed about things ?

things in general, and things wt/jw related ?.

i find i am much more relaxed and pragmatic about life in general, mrs phizzy and i do what we can, but we don't get overly upset at what we cannot do.

I've been out for a long long time, apart from immediate family issues I'm very relaxed and generally happy with my life,

I still have freinds who have left the JWs and we can socialise without discussing much about those old days.

My resurgence of feeling I wanted to re engage with JWs has been the appearance of the trolley/cart lazy, smug blasé hand outstreched come and get your salvation here approach to ' spreading the good news ' I feel I always have to give them some ttatt to think about, and then just bid them good day.

the thought that at one time I might have participated in that activity is so foreign to me now brings a great feeling of satisfaction as I walk away from their little stall of delusion.

Best wishes.

The problems Bible believers have with Atheists is the burden of proof is on the Believer and we just do not have enough proof.

by booker-t in

i recently posted a post telling this board my athesit coworker stumped me with questions about the validity of the ark story and i just cannot stop talking to her.

i love hearing her side and point of view which in the past i would have dismissed as "satanic" thinking.

she has some very good questions and i am having a hard time answering them.

Otwo...Can I join your church.. it makes more sense.I think I'm born again Lol!

Sitting in a man made building listening to man made music,.. nothing wrong with that.

But when did common sense become bad manners?

hey everyone,.

thanks qcf and nugget for starting threads.

thanks cofty for wondering where i was.

galaxie

There is ' going back ' physically and going back mentally.

Physically could be for genuine needs for your mental welfare.

Mentally going back as a need to believe,.. is a different ballgame.

I'm sure kate/Sam knows what she's doing,

Have a great relaxing holiday kiddo.

Best wishes.

I believe I'm an athiest;;...I have studied the ancient and revered atheistic texts, my faith in the non inspired god of non existence has strengthened my belief, so much so I am compelled to evangelise to others.

I look forward to meeting and worshipping my loving god of non existence with my fellow brothers.

We hope to publish the good news of the kingdom of the non existant god very soon and distribute world wide.

We want everyone on earth to share the joy of this non existant promise of the non existant reward for being faithful non believers.

See you all in church.

May our nongod bless us all Amen.

Kate.... my best wishes to you.

Sincerely hope your situation improves soon.

99.9% Of a People Who Believe In Evolution Don't Understand It.

by Space Madness in

i never believed in evolution as i thought it didn't make sense and that what was proposed was simply impossible.

how could an environment alter an organism's dna?

as we can see however, bacteria cannot become resistance to antibiotics.

Evolution is a fact :...get over it and live your life.

Are they really asking a worldly organisation(patent office) permission to protect from use by anyone else, a logo which part of contains the most sacred name of their god?

Which scripture is this reasoning based on?

These people are mixed up , deluded , conning charlatans!!!!

Ad Gefrin - The Ancient Capital of Northumbria

by cofty in

last sunday my wife and i went walking in the cheviot hills in the beautiful northumberland national park not far from our home.

we have walked a lot of the cheviots in recent months and intend to get around a lot more over the summer.. this week we decided to go up a few of the smaller hills in the north of the park so we headed for a peak known as yeavering bell.

it was used as a hill fort since the iron age.

Cheers.

Good post cofty... I too am a Scot. I just purchased a motorhome so looking for interesting places to visit.

A trip to the border country /cheviots could be on the cards.

Best wishes.
