6 Ways Religion Does More Bad Than Good
by jean-luc picard in"most british people think religion causes more harm than good according to a survey commissioned by the huffington post.
surprisingly, even among those who describe themselves as “very religious” 20 percent say that religion is harmful to society.
for that we can probably thank the internet, which broadcasts everything from isis beheadings, to stories about catholic hospitals denying care to miscarrying women, to lists of wild and weird religious beliefs, to articles about psychological harms from bible-believing christianity.".

Im sick of my life
by BlackWolf insorry but i really feel like i need to rant right now.
recently my dad was made an elder so my family has been doing a lot more "theocratic" activities lately.
every morning i wake up and put on my itchy dress and stupid makeup and heels and then pretend that i love what i'm doing and that everybody is my friend when in reality i feel horrible and all the other teenage girls at my hall hate me for some reason.

Assembly Hall selling HVAC machines
by StarTrekAngel innot going to disclose a whole lot of details because it will implicate someone else without their consent.
someone very close to me, who is a non-baptized publisher (for almost 3 years now), went to work to the local assembly hall.

did you assist to 2009 international assembly in chile?
by Mandrake ini've been curious.
yesterday i discarded a lot of ugly souvenirs from that convention, i remember that i was at the santiago airport (my dad worked there) and i was assigned to translate and guide brothers through customs and many other processes.
i still have some led keyring flashlight david splane gave to me (he was at the time advising against college but next year i applied anyway) and i decided to conserve the visit card i got from gerrit losch and wife.
