  this was the reason that our 12 year old son gave us for wanting to be baptized.

  my wife and i actually agreed that he should wait a little longer, thank god!

  by the time he was 13 he was running wild.

  I haven't read the whole article but I know that neurologists claim that our brains are predisposed to having spiritual experiences - not necessarily belief in a god. We also have predispositions to superstition - like yours. It is an artefact that arose from several hundred thousand years of the brains evolution not a gift from 'God'.

  a watcher,

  "RealWitness, there are less than a handful of real Witnesses here, me being one of them, and the admins are not Witnesses."

  And the question that all real Witnesses never answer is, "why are you here where the Watchtower bans you from going to?"

  TheOnlyRealWittnessHere, "With all the negativity here I was wondering if I am the only one here that's a witness."

  I think that there are others. I believe that SimonSays is one.

  a few seconds ago this hit the net todayhttp://jwvictims.org/conventions-kingdom-halls-relief-funds-and-other-financial-scams-and-schemes-of-jehovahs-witnesses/.

  conventions, kingdom halls, relief funds, and other financial scams and schemes of jehovahs witnesses.

  jehovahs witnesses often note that at their meetings (like church services), they dont pass a collection plate.

  SimonSays,

  "...it turns out the WT is no different from any other Religion when it comes to corporate money. Catholics, Protestants, Baptist, Mormons, Scientologist, etc. Well except the Evangelist like Joel Osteen that will tell you outright to give them the money for personal use. I wonder how transparent those other religions are with their finances. Could you research those as well?"

  Why should he research another religion when, as you said, they're the same as 'Babylon'.
