Many of my relatives are JoHos.

They've tried to get me into their crazy little cult.

Didn't work with them. Didn't work with the Scientologists. Didn't work with the Catholics.

Or the Mormons...

Or the Muslims...

Or the ...

But you enjoy YOUR brief existence.

But what God?
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

So if you hear about Hindu myth saying that Vishnu slept and Brahma appeared in a lotus sprouting from his navel. Once done sprouting, Brahma created the universe.

And someone asked you if you wanted to hear more about the evidence of Vishnu's existence you probably would not be interested because the story is very lame (from today's perspective) and you can see it was made up by and for primitive people. So why would it be any different for God of the Bible or Allah or any other God?

JW has no luck getting anyone to listen by knocking on people's door, so comes to an atheist forum and expects better results! lol

There was I time I did and tried to get there. Got nothing. Then came down. What a waste of a high.

So, get on the with the tautology.
