Richard Dawkins has had a Stroke
by cofty inhe is back home and making god progress.. he has issued an audio statement here....

He sounds a bit tired and weak but still sharp. He has been having chronic blood pressure problems lately as well as stress. It is good that he can still speak and think. It's interesting that he says his biggest challenge is buttons. We take simple things for granted. I hope he can recover fully. This getting old sucks. -

Evolution and Atheism - please help
by Fernando innot being familiar with either, my question is:.
what is the relationship between evolution and atheism?.
i'd love to hear from anyone and everyone, and also from any perspective.. without limiting the conversation in any way, i would of course also appreciate comments that are simple, clear, direct and correct (as i don't have the capacity to do a phd in evolution or atheism)..

Evolution debunks a lot of religious claims, eg. that the Earth and/or mankind are only about 6,000 years old. -

My son's and I's first Valentines Day, Friendship day celebration since our awakening!!
by Khaleesi inso this weekend will be my first time celebrating friendship day since stop celebrating due to being a jw for years.
the most exciting part for me and makes me very happy is finally to have my son participate and be involved in normal activities at school with classmates.
no longer will i allow him to be ostracized at school due to the wt "cult's" ridiculous reasoning why some things are not okay to participate while others are okay.

The Heart shape has always been a fave of mine. But I was told it was evil due to Pagan origins. I didn't care. I drew them all the time. I now have several heart shaped stones of various different types... Rose Quartz, Hematite, Amethyst, etc. I even found one just taking a walk at my Dad's one day. Tell me, if the heart shape is so evil, why did Jehovah make this stone?Edited to add: That wolf mug that the stone is propped up on is a gift from my Mom years ago. I treasure it now that she is gone.

Does anyone think Jehovah is protecting the org. despite all the talk about THE ARC ?
by tor1500 ini've been thinking this for a while.
even before the arc scandal.
it seems no matter what, the org.

As I pointed out to my Dad, if there is only 1 pedophile allowed to remain as a JW, then this is not God's organization.
He was unable to refute this.

No. Jehovah is a mere concept, a fantasy, a myth. Things that don't exist cannot protect anything. -

Did you get " Counseled " about the Music you Listened to While you were a JW ?
by flipper infrom the time i was a small boy - i loved rock n' roll music.
beatles, rolling stones, led zeppelin, hendrix.
i started getting slighted for the music i listened to as i lay in my bedroom listening on headphones to led zeppelin's song " black dog " at age 14 with my elder dad looking suspiciously at me as i'm rocking out .

My Dad used to listen to our record albums (back in the day they were vinyl LPs for you youngsters).
I was never counseled but my younger bro sure was. He had Ozzy Osbourne's "Speak of the Devil" album. My Dad was furious, throwing it on the ground. My bro said "Don't worry Dad, I am going to return it to the record store." And to himself he said "And I'm picking up the cassette tape."

I have too much crap!! How to declutter/dehoard.....
by Muddy Waters insome areas of our home are very nice, tidy, clean.
and other rooms are just junk and clutter and clothes and papers.... omg.
and now that we are getting older, we realize that we face a time of transition -- and this is hard to cope with too, as we believed the lie that we would never get old, etc.

I have to declutter too.
I'm currently working on my Dad's place. Am hoping the auction will happen this spring. It will all be gone and I can then sell his house.
I am also working on my stuff. Once I get a big enough pile, I'll send it to auction too.
