there is an interesting new article at guardian.com on things like dowsing, ouija boards and other scams.

it illustrates how there is a scientific explanation for ouija boards, and how dowsing won't stand up to scientific scrutiny.. here's a summary:.

the ideomotor effect is also behind the supposed power of ouija boards to communicate with the dead.

i've been playing around with wt statistics recently, helped by the great data available on jwfacts.com.

i wanted to share somehting with the community, maybe you've seen something like this before.. continuing the trend of decline seen during the last 30 years, i was able to extrapolate the year when wt growth might finally end.

if trends continue, we may only have to wait about 8 more years, 9 years to see it reported if the wt decides to report it at all, to see publisher growth end and possibly reverse.. the graph shows the annual growth rate of average publishers during the last 31 years.

hi friends, i have been reading threads on atheism and how they see life from their point of view.

i must admit some of the points that you (atheists) put forth have given me something to think about.

i still have faith in god but let's say if i would like to do a research on atheism, where should i start?
