Religious ideas need to be ridiculed, stupidity and ignorance should not be left unchallenged.
Better to be mocked and ridiculed than beheaded, burnt at the stake or imprisoned, which is religion's answer to "heresy".
richard dawkins has said frequently if we don't agree with religious or spiritual people we need to "insult them!
" tell their their out of their "fucking gourds!
" and make sure you really show them how stupid they are for believing in something they can't prove!".

what if a person is thought to be possessed and nothing suspicious is found in their home, ie books, yard sale stuff, smurfs, etc..., will the elders perform an exorcism?
have any of you ever heard of a person getting exorcised?.
We are not suppose to do it , so what happened when a JW is possessed by a demon. Take them into field service ?
You know the answer...
More Prayer
More Study
More Field Service .......
.......and probably more contributions wouldn't go amiss
hello ya'll.
was just listening to great guitar music from some of my favorites.
who are your all time favorites?
a few weeks ago, these two jovies turned up on my doorstep.
being in a good mood that particular day, i told them that if they could prove that god existed, i'd become a jovie - and i meant every word.. they gave me two documents which they asked me read and told me that they'd be back in a week.
the first was called "was life created?
This video explains the probability issue very well

my amazing wife surprised me and bought tickets for us to hear richard dawkins tonight!
he is giving a lecture with someone and then they are having a q&a session.
anyone have any suggestions for questions i could ask?
I actually feel jealous :)
What an awesome gift.
an elderly sister passed away recently.
family came to her memorial service from all over the country.
some of them, including grown-up, disfellowshipped children of hers, also came.
i can understand why someone who was born of jovie parents would want to leave jovie world.
i can see why someone who had joined jovie world would want to leave.
after all, why would you want to stay in such an evil institution?.
i just had an invite to a district convention later this month in calgary (i guess they get to clean up the saddledome before the stampede, lol).. they gave me a leaflet asking "why did jesus come to earth?
" so i asked them "so why did he come?".
"well, he came to save us".
