I'd love to chat with a JW concerning their attitude towards atheism. So, what do you think of nonbelief? Do you think it's rational to not believe?

 Hello! Smile

 I don't understand that options.

  'Inside' as in with or supporting scientific endeavors and research?

'Outside' as in the arts or crafts?

Cheers


I am INSIDE the WTBS, but don't believe everything taught. 
As opposed to OUTSIDE the brotherhood think at random!

WTBS? What does the Turner Broadcasting System have to do with whatever this "discussion" is? I had to look up the anacronym and TBS cable channel is all I got. I take it the OPs native language is not English.

No 'Abiogenisis' is a word. To which people apply definitions.

If you want to just keep typing words in the hope they form coherant and cogent sentences, fine.

If you'd rather try and actually engage with thd topic such that we can move towards an understanding?

Dare I say that would be better?

I think he explained it as being part of the Watchtower society. JWs on parade or some crap like that.

But I'll not argue with you regarding his grasp of the English language.

Notice how JW's ask questions, ignore the answers, and go on to their next question? Most of them are intellectual illiterates with closed minds. MadJW is a poster boy for JW's and is merely here to troll.  Dodgy

I've got physics down pat (loads of degrees).  I'm sometimes a victim of chemistry, specifically C2H5-OH

Believe it or not I am here to discuss SCIENCE.

No you're not. And that is quite obvious to everyone who has read and responded to you from the very beginning of this thread.

You are willfully ignorant and are not really interested one iota in understanding or engaging in an actual intellectually stimulating conversation or discussion. You don't know anything about science or how it works and you are proud of that, which is why it is useless to have any further concourse with you whatsoever. This also makes you, as far as I am concerned, the most contemptible individual and a waste of skin. You are beneath any consideration.

Science works bitch! Science has nothing to do with religion, or your religion, anyone's religion, ANY religion. Science deals only with questions of reality, nature, and how that reality and nature works. Science asks those questions, makes hypotheses about those questions, and scientists proposes possible answers to those questions then conducts experiments to test whether or not those proposed answers prove correct or not. If the results of those experiments provide answers which are factual and supports a hypothesis, and continued repeated experiments establish the hypothesis as being correct, then that hypothesis becomes an established theory. But that does not mean that scientists are infallible. Sometimes there are mistakes. Science is resilient for the very fact that it is self-correcting. New facts being discovered and peer reviewed research corrects prior errors and tweaks previous conclusions. That is Science and it's nature. It does not give a shit about your damn religion or your damn god(s). And Science also does not give a damn whether you like that or not. Science is not about a popularity contest. That is not what Science is about. Understand it or don't. Take it or leave it. Either truly try to understand it or shut the fuck up.

MadJW's engagement signifies nothing. That is all I have to say to him/her on this or any matter.

I bring nothing but questions. You don't mind coming not from a family of scientists, unschooled, and an unprofessional, do you?
