we already are very familiar with the god delusion, but what to think about the property of being self aware is just another illusion?.
buddhism asserts that and many people does not know that the very materialism (physicalism) asserts that too.. how can an illusion be self aware to be an illusion in itself?
what would change in your life if you accept this?.
But if there's no boy riding the elephant?
My topic is about no self at all, we are in a sense just bio-robots that have a command to simulate a self that can experience some free will.
The self is an illusion in same way of Jehovah being the creator of the universe.

What you think about it?
i'm not suicidal just fed up.. i did think of suicide (briefly), but as there is no painless way and it's not something i would willingly do just in case things would have been better the day after.
i do have a slight grain of hope.. money problems.....problems at home (that's another matter with a son up court for something he is adamant he didn't do.
first offence but the pigs police and the cps have got charges made.
I have a strange ability to feel good even when I'm through deep sadness.
Being alive is what matters to me. Life will always bring interesting surprises.
I'm a nihilist.
mickey rooney passed,a sad loss.

This conversation can serve no purpose anymore. Goodbye
several years ago on beliefnet there was a jw apologist named "apologist".
he was very well written and defended the dubs very well.
he had several debates with auld soul and others on beliefnet which were fun to read.. i recently found out that the poster "apologist" is no longer a witness and does not consider them to have the "truth".
It boggles my mind that rational truth-seeking people can leave the JWs but retain Christian Bible beliefs.

The same method used to refute the WT can be used to refute every form of christianity.
as one of the jw "young ones" i was always expected to witness to my friends at school if i wanted to make god's heart glad or whatever but i didn't.
the closest i ever got was just explaining why we didn't celebrate christmasetc.
even then i was just reciting things i read in publications.. one topic i always tried to avoid talking about was birthdays.
Birthdays.
Blood.

The generation thing must be a headache now.

Maybe frankie are now using the "persecution" complex to stick even more to his belief in the voodoo woo woo video.

I-want-to-believe in this video. LOL
It's just like christians trying to make sense out of the bible, because they have to believe in the bible.
It's an interesting self defense mechanism (to observe by distance).
saw this on youtube.
