11"Infidel" by Ayaan Hirsi Ali - The Story of a Muslim Apostate
by cofty ini have just finished reading one of the most powerful, thought-provoking books i have ever read.. if somebody really wanted to know the reality of life inside the watchtower they must talk to a rational ex-jw.
only people like us can see through the offical statememets and stereotypes and understand the thinking, pressures, hopes and fears of life in the cult.. ayaan hirsi ali shares her personal experience of growing up in a muslim community.
ayaan was born in somalia with it's culture of clan loyalty and honour.

Jc: LisaRose, the American Churches were divided over slavery too.
an apt comparison: an ancient discrimatory practice being proded up by scriptual support was increasingly being seen as irrelevant and immoral by intellectuals and the younger generation and today it is seen as morally impossible to accept.

Unstopable ravens: More to the point, if there, as you seem to say, are no objective reasons to forbid gay marriage that are not based on religion, can we not agree that to a seculary minded person who do not wish to base law on religious ideas, or a person who simply does not believe in god like me, making gay marriage illegal is as sensible as introducing any other discrimatory religious ideas like forbidding food containing pork, or fobidding food containing both meat from cows and milk, or forbidding work on the sabbath, or forbidding women to hold office, or punishing people who have sex before marriage or any other such thing?

Junction-guy: It is a bit funny that the sign christianity is true just happends to look exactly like more and more people realising christianity is properly not true
unstopableravens: Outside of god, there is no moral standard of right and wrong, each person gets to decide
As best as i can tell, you have just accepted there is no reasons why we should not allow gay marriages which are not solely based on religious ideas. I can then just say that I do not wish religion to influence laws and I don't think I am the first to think of that idea.
If there are no objective reasons to oppose gay marriage between say two lesbians why do god oppose it?

Junction-Guy: Christians are leaving, just as the bible predicted.
I bet when the number of evangelic christians was INCREASING all the evangelics was saying: "Oh no, people are joining christianity and our church is becoming larger, this is nothing like the bible predicted the bible must be wrong!"
oh wait that too was proof god was blessing the church!
You know, there is a term for an idea where no matter how the evidence turns out it is taken to support it. It is "pseudoscientific".

Unstopable: I recognize that you think homosexuals should be allowed to do the same as the rest of us and think this does not think this has something to do with their rights, but I don't think it is very logical.
I know a nice lesbian couple who got married one year ago. Can you give one good reason why they should not have been allowed to be married that is not based on God's supposed whims?

unstopable: How is saying marriage is to be only between a nd a man and women bashing?
How is saying marriage is not between people of different color bashing?
Today it is considered racist, a few decades ago it was not. You are on the wrong side of history on this issue and that is one of the things thats driving the younger generation away from evangelism. Give it a few decades and evangalism will change, religion always do.

It is a bit funny that unstopable ravens repressive attitude towards homosexuality, as well as his attitude towards those more progressively minded (they are to be blamed and branded as sinfull) is exactly one of the things that is hurting the evangelic movement right now.
keep up the godly gaybashing upstopableravens . What you are experiencing is the feeling of being on the wrong side of history and moral progress. In a few decades your oppinions will be considered fringe and cringeworthy like overt racism or sexism.

The EBOLA conspiracy...
by gopher123 inhey guys.

my god, i saw a cooking show the other day and they told people to put EBOLA in their food! or rather, they said:
"You can eat cola"
E(B)OLA!
They thought they could sneak in this hidden message but I got the better of them; perhaps they thought so because "eat" sound very differently in my language and the evil illuminati satanist alien cucumberdwarfes didn't think i could speak english, but I solved their riddle and NOW THE INTERNETS KNOW!!!!
ps.
Can anyone tell me, if the illuminati is behind ebola, but ebola is also the plague the lord cast upon mankind according to genesis, would that make Jesus himself an illuminati member? it sounds plausible, since it is well-known the church, illuminati and builder-bob are basically the same, however isnt jesus the good guy?

gopher: Then you have the gaul to criticize the Watchtower when they do what you do to a far LESSER extent.
gopher, i am super serious, you will no longer be able to talk to your family.
I just send them a letter and they will shun you from now on.
The only way to end this is by quitly lurking for a year.
