When the desire to preach dies.
by El blanko in.
i have realized lately that i am far less "preachy" than i used to be and as a result, i do not feel as far up my own backside as i used to.. i think my ego is finally, finally, becoming easier to whip and control.
i grew tired of hearing my own voice.. do you feel this way?.

Ever placed "Christian Freedom" at the doors?
by El blanko inwell, amazingly, i just passed on the book to a sister who knocked my door this morning, after a long, long chat.. what amazed me i suppose after isolating myself in my bubble for many years now, is that jws are basically humans afterall.
with a great degree of social apprehension towards us ex-jws of course, but never the less, human.. i assured her i had faded away, but still retained a moral code of behaviour.
she relaxed at that point.

The concept of sin?
by El blanko inok, here is one that jabs into my mind occasionally.
the concept of 'sin' and the fallen state of man is rather profound and used to blow my mind, especially when paul broke down the concept when writing about the struggle with the fleshly state.
i could relate to those words and it was originally one of the main reasons i moved towards the scriptures (that, and the carrot of living forever of course

Fault in human DNA strand?
by El blanko inhi there - i'm sorry if this is off topic slightly, but i need information.. i am not learned in this area of science and wondered if it is true that there is a fault within human dna that science assumes is the reason we break down and die and are unable to explain.. forgive my ignorance here.
this question spins off from a conversation i had this afternoon with an ex-jw who wishes to get back to the kingdom hall and was using this argument to present his ideas to me.
i told him that i was not aware of this particular area of study but would look into it for him.. i am assuming that he read this in an awake article maybe?.
