Why I write...
by Jerohobobonadad in.
hello all, been lurking a few weeks, decided to post..... i am mid 20's, male, unbaptised, 3rd generation, elder family etc.
a number of years ago, in the name of intellectual honesty, i decided to research religions to make an informed choice before being baptised as a jw.... there was not enough time (and i was too uninterested) to look at other religions seriously, so i figured if jw is the "truth" then it should be able to stand any criticism.. is it just me or is it all a load of old bollocks?!.

the tens of thousands of children raped and murdered every year.
Ok, Tex. I don't know the stats on this, you could be right.
I think my confusion was "raped and murdered" - perhaps you meant "raped or murdered"?

It would seem that the words smart, educated, and intelligent are not synonomous.
One can be intelligent but not smart (per Gary's example), educated but not intelligent, and certainly, smart and/or intelligent but not educated.
Smart dubs, whether intelligent or educated, leave.

for atheists/agnostics
by BlackSwan of Memphis inhow did you get to the point where you are at now?
was it primarily new information that made you rethink religion and god?
learning about the ice age, the universe, the fossils out there?

Just looking up into the sky on a dark night, showing my kids the absolute beauty of the heavens... real beauty...
Saki, that's when I feel closest to God.................or feeling the pounding of the ocean, or seeing the majesty of mountains, or the breathtaking giant redwoods...............nature is awesome........................but I don't feel anything about God sitting in a Kingdom Hall except.........."This is how God wants to communicate with us? Through little books and magazines? This is how He wants us to know Him? This is how He wants us to spend our time? This is why Jesus died for our sins - so we could spend our lives sitting in a hall, underlining paragraphs?"

Another odd dynamic:
I'm sure that many people who belong to a religious faith cannot necessarily explain the complexities of the dogma of their religion.
However, how many religions do you know that demand as much commitment of time, energy and demonstration of faith from their adherents as the WTS? A nice sermon on Sunday, a few hymns and you're good to go. Whereas the JWs are trotting around meetings, talks, field service, studies, conventions, etc., in a constant dead heat.
I would think that alone would make JW's examine carefully whether this is the truth.
