  Active posters: What education have you had, what degrees do you possess?

  by EndofMysteries in

  from so many posts and conversations on here, you'd think over 1/2 the posters here possess doctorates in theology, physics, biology, etc.

  i'm curious aside from the books and research people have done here, what degrees they have.

  to start, i just got an aa and going straight through full time to an mba.

  A degree can help open the door, but success once you have stepped through that door depends on many other factors.

  I have Higher National Diploma in Chemistry (a UK vocational course which is supposed to be the equivalent to a degree in Chemistry) and an MBA for which my HND was considered a degree equivalent for me to gain entry.

  she passed faithful to the end to them!

  just found out (second hand of course) and by someone on here that my faithful jw mum passed away within the last couple of days, dont know the exact day, and what cause, she spent the last few years living with my fanatical sister, she was 65 and survived my father by 10 years, bitter, angry and hateful till the end and never as so much enquired or asked how her 2 grandchildren ever were , they are 5 and 7!

  feeling a mixture of emotions right now, they were lousy parents in all honesty, she suffered health wise so maybe its for the best, dont even know when the funeral is!

  It is her choice as to whether keep it or not. I would support her whatever decision she makes.

  Atheism does not have an ambassador on this forum.

  Neither does non-ornithology.

  Even if you have come to the conclusion that there is a God, how do you leap the conclusion that is the god of the bible, and not one of the other thousands of deities created by man over the millennia of our existence?

  to date JWism has defined my life and i hate that TRUTH

  and i am finding the adjustment to the real world far more difficult than i ever imagined...i f...it has been about five years since i totally woke up to the fraudulant nwt and then all my other doubts i had carried for years were proved true as well.

  but almost all of my few friends are exjw or slack jw's and i feel so isolated...my sons friends are mostly exjw too but not their gf's and they have way more normal friends .

  how have you done at replacing lifelong friends and family?

  I still have Eric as a Facebook friend, I never met him in person but we chatted a few times.

  It still breaks my heart when I recall the way he was treated, particularly after his motorcycle accident

  Atheism

  recent events and book reads (one suggested by cofty i believe- thank you) have lead me to the only logical and acceptable conclusion:.

  there is no god.. simple logical reasoning: matter can neither me created or destroyed.

  so the amount of mass in the universe is constant.

  Lack of evidence there is a god does not mean there is no god

  Lack of evidence there are Unicorns does not mean there are no Unicorns
