The collapse of the Watchtower. Write your gloomy-doomy scenario here.
by Pole inhey, prophets of doom, if you were to write an abstract of a screenplay for a movie about the collapse of the watchtower what would be the final nail in the coffin?
make it as serious or as preposterous as you like.. here's two scenarios to begin with.
english is not my first language, so naturally yours may be much more entertaining.. .

I'm afraid there are only 2 ways of being a true believin' Christian
by Zep inthe first way is to be completely ignorant.to ignore the fact that the bible is a hopelessly flawed man made document, and all other reasoned argument and evidence that points to the non existence of the christian god.
this strategy basically involves living inside mental cocoon and closing your eyes to any alternative views.
the best way to employ this tactic is to perform a whole lot repetitive and ritualistic action; a whole lot of head bowing and praying etc... etc....you know the drill!.

Did God put a 12 year old up the Duff??????
by Zep in.
apparently, back in the days of mary and joseph, arranged marriages were very common.
a girl was usually married off by 12 or 13.. there are pretty good odds that god knocked up a 12 year old virgin mary.. i don't know about you people, but.....ewwwwww!

Evil come evil go.
by Peppermint inwhat was the silliest thing taken away from you as a child because of its supposed evil influence?
i remember when i was about 5 or 6 years old, my mum gave me a copy of the 1812 overture.
i remember it as a real cool gift at the time.

Who here still finds it hard to celebrate Christmas?
by dh ini was raised a jw and as i've probably said before, i left when i was around 18... i'll be 27 in a few days, and as i get older realise how i do not really know how to celebrate anything.
being raised a jw we never had xmas or birthdays (or any celebration), and since none of the friends i had when i left the jw's were christian either, i have to this day never celebrated it... i am not christian and will openly admit that i couldn't care less about the religious side of christmas, but what i see around me, everywhere in the world are people who aren't really christian either, celebrating christmas, either for kids or friends or whatever, but i've never done that or had anyone around me to do that with... people look forward to this time of year so much, they buzz and rush around like it's a real event, and to this day i've never been able to feel that way.
most of my christmas/birthdays since leaving jw's have been spent by myself, completely devoid of celebration, i want to get into that feel good spirit, but i don't know how, and if i try to fake it, i know it is fake.

by melmac insource: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/3072021.stm .
men could reduce their risk of developing prostate cancer through regular masturbation, researchers suggest.
they say cancer-causing chemicals could build up in the prostate if men do not ejaculate regularly.
