3. Blasphemy!

I loved it! We non-believers must stand up and present our views on this "god" thing and stop slinking into the background whenever the subject is broached. We can't be worried about offending the god-squad, when they've been totally offensive to us for centuries.

One cute little song isn't going to undo the centuries worth of damage they've done, but it's a start. Maybe it will get a few people thinking, and that's all that's needed to tear down the walls of superstition and hate.

4. You'll never undo the dogma enough to stop it

Religions have endured for centuries due to their divisive nature and mind control techniques. Governments use it as a form of control and the religions themselves use it for their own survival. How else would you get millions of people to indoctrinate their young to such whimsy? I had a couple of religious visitors the other day at my front door. I love how they love to ask questions that you can't answer, and then act like they know the answer because they read from a book written by a bunch of men. I understand that people like being part of a group with a common cause, but can't they spend their energy on reality? Instead of selling religious books door to door can't they convince people to contact their civic leaders to insure we have clean air and water? No, they don't because their religion tells them they will all be saved anyway, so why bother. What a bunch of hooey.

6. Totally agree

At least the more dogmatic ones value some afterlife as the most important life. That this worldly life means nothing other than to see how many more true believers you can convince to narrow their own lives and rob them of being open to other possibilities now that everything is so easily explained or excused.

7. I refuse....

to allow these jackasses to walk all over me anymore, though. I used to turn a deaf ear to them, just closed myself off until they were finished and then walked away. Not any more. I was force fed religion from an early age. I even had a grandmother who was a Jehovah's Witness, and she watched my sister and I since both of our parents worked. What a dog and pony show that was!

I'll try to talk with them nicely, but there's no sense arguing with a fool. I'll just walk away now and forget I ever knew them. If I can make ONE person see the folly of their ways though, it's worth it. If people would just use their gift of critical thinking instead of permanently shutting down their thought processes, then maybe we'd all get somewhere in this world. They act like "faith" is a virtue, instead of the death of reasoning.

8. I used to think most JW's aren't aware of their short history

I thought, if they knew about it, maybe they wouldn't be so willfully gullible. But then, I look at the mormons and just give up. ROFL

5. I believe my dog has a better grasp of the physics equations I tell him about

Than the willfully ignorant accept anything that doesn't fit their "I deserve my riches because God, Jeebus and the Sky Spook intended it" delusion.
