how the heck did they get the name "Jehova" as god's name??? how come they dont believe in christmas??? why do they always come by my house and sneak up on me, i mean sometimes they would just be on my door step, peeking through...do they believe in heaven?? a JW lady told me that ther was no such thing as heaven. why do they have all these weird predictions of jesus coming to earth and stuff like that, that was supposedly happened in the past. why do they tell me that other christians, mormon, catholic are not real but they are??? why do they always try to brainwash my poor mother? i was invited to service but she made it sound like i have to bow down to the others cos i was new and in her eyes i was not like them or somthing?? Like its so weird? please explain. she always stops by today cos she know ill be home by 3.

For Serious Christians:

Does anyone know what kind of prayer would be used to break off the covering of a churches leadership over somebody?
I believe that someone i know is being hammered spiritually because she is still "under" bad leadership and I dont know how to break that off,,, any ideas?
Thanks in advance

Come on, I am friendly to the Atheists (and I even spell it right) I never tell you that you are doomed to eternal torment or anything- so can I join your Mafia even though I am not Atheist?

Personally I have to admit that I have some preconceived ideas. It's always a question mark when a person is from what we label as cults, however that person can very easy righten-up this impression

Doesn't the idea of the entire planet occupied by nothing but Jesus worshiping Christians scare the hell out of you? What a waste of thousands of years of human diversity, culture, local
traditions, and different ethnicities. How on earth could ANYONE want that.

I saw a "Twilight Episode" once where everyone was the same, where everybody was supposed to be happy, but in actuality, it was HELL.

The good, bad and the ugly make mankind, we believe. But each one is a mixture of all these character traits. None is totally good, bad or ugly? If this is the case how a just judgment is possible? In earth we have a better system of judgment if truly dispensed – the fact is that it is not truly dispensed and money and status count - where punishment is decreed by the nature of the crime. No holy texts say of a just punishment based on this premise. Up there the punishment is eternal! No fixed term for one in burning pyres raging in Hell! Am I wrong in my assumption? Don’t I appear confused and eccentric?

Please don't go down that road again [burn in hell]
I have not seen that response in any answer'
There are of you' who will maintain you get letters of this nature, But it seems to me' its a carbon copy of the last
atheistic statement.
If I am wrong' please except my apology,
Why do you come on here to ridicule, it wont change the faithful

I just discovered that my mother in law thinks I am satanist.
She is closed minded and lives in the bible belt.
I am wondering if I should even bring this up with her, in an attempt to clarify to her that I am actually agnostic?
Her son thinks "atheists" means the same as "satanist".
So I am wondering from others on if you have closed minded relatives like this and if you even bother trying to explain the difference?
I am some what hurt by it and somewhat amused as I think it is kinda funny.
What are your experiences?
Thanks

I mean, those stories are full of supernatural fantasy and miracles.... things that we just don't see today and are just downright impossible...

Why would God expect anyone to buy into that stuff? It seems pretty unreasonable to me... I mean, I wasn't there to see Mohammad, Abraham or Jesus, so why would I believe ANYTHING about them?

Why can't we just choose to believe that there may be some God or God force out there, and that it's all going to be OK somehow, without all of those silly rules, doctrines and literally UNbelievable events?!?!

Humans were carefully engineered to match in harmony with the earth's environment.

- Regardless of Atheism, Christianity, Islam, or any other religious belief.

Various religious people may agree with this. Creationism matches this, along with various other religious elements.

Does this seem logical?
