A Challange to Def'd.....
by AK - Jeff ini, and many other well meaning posters here, have asked you dozens of questions.
you have dodged them all for the most part and spent your replies on personal attacks, or just plain refusal to address the questions posed.
your favorite retort is typically ad hominen attacks or a red-herring thown in for good measure.

WHAT DO I DO?
by betty boop inmy cousin and aunt (she who is in no way active) have ganged up on me saying how reputable and correct the bible is.
my aunt in specific has stated some good points about the bible, asking how is it that i dont believe in the bible if there are a lot of things in it ahead of its times.
scientifically speaking, she said, the bible clearly states the earth is round and that rivers give way to the seas.

Are artist's faces copyrighted?
by Lilycurly in.
this might seem like a strange question...but if anyone's familiar with the concept of copyrights.... i am thinking of making an illustrated book including quotes from various inspirational music and movie artists complete with artistic portraits of the artists (that are not copied from photographs...) and i was wondering if i could get sued over something like that...

Just had a call from a sister
by dedpoet ina couple of months ago, i posted regarding a chat with a sister in my old cong who, despite knowing i'm da'd, was still happy to talk to me.
we've spoken a few times since then, both on the phone and face to face, and i have suggested to her that she might get in trouble for having anything to do with me now i've left, but she wasn't worried about it.. well, she called me a few minutes ago with the news that its got back to the elders that she is "associating" with me depite my status, and they are not happy about it.
she had a call from two of them earlier in the evening, they left just before she phoned me, and they warned her to keep away from me, or else!

by Narkissos inor, perhaps, why was it attractive to you at some stage of your life?.
intense suffering might be the right answer in exceptional cases, but hardly for vast numbers (such as most early christians or modern-day cult members).. what then?
fear of life?

A question for former jw: Should renewed zealotry be feared?
by Check_Your_Premises ini was able to ring some pretty loud bells in the mind of a witness by asking difficult, thought provoking questions.
the person obviously was troubled and was having a hard time rationalizing the items discussed.. now i see a renewed effort and zealotry.
it is obviously the "pendulum" swing i hear so much about.
