god-of-the-gaps. Should we or shouldn't we fiil in the gaps with God?

2. beliefs
science imo does not have all the answers.

when i discover gaps in science, it's easy for me, as a temporary measure to fill in the gaps with god.

i do this until i have learnt something new.. what about you?

Great Music
by Berengaria in

it appears that many of the best music threads have been purged.

i can't imagine the formula that would eliminate such wonderousness while preserving "involuntary muscular contractions", but so it is.. the first offering.

People have a right to preserve their culture race and identity!!!
by Joliette in

2. experiences
one of the biggest things that bothered me as a jehovahs witness was the whole 'we are the world' bullcrap that they used to teach, and that culture, color, and race didnt matter.

as far as i'm concerned thats a bunch of bs.

people have a right to preserve who they, where they came from, and they have a right to be represented.

Disfellowshiping: Why the Terror?
by Cold Steel in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
the more i read about ritual shunning and disfellowshiping in the society, the more i wonder how the governing body and elders have pulled the proverbial wool over the eyes of the congregation.

first, the society doesnt consider itself a church (unlike the ancient christians, who did consider themselves to be part of a church).

yet, like other sectarians, they have their hands out for contributions and exercise immense power over their members.

My Jimi Hendrix experience
by confusedandalone in
1. social
2. entertainment
as a 13 year old a friend of mine had a jimi hendrix record and told me if we play it backwards that they said words.

he bought the record from a shop not far from where we lived and we were the only family that still had a record player.

so we played the record and i spun it backwards andnothing happened.
