h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Hi there Cadi... I was just reading another article you contributed to... a journal entry that you had in January... about religion and you were defending the bible's viewpoint... I just want to say that you used the bible admirably in defending the truth!

I'm actually one of Jehovah's Witnesses in Canada... Vancouver. It's a rare treat that there is so many rational people on these pages, it's nice to see rational people who don't believe all the much incorrect information out there.

I have family in Scotland (actually born there, but parents emigrated when I was wee) and England and even and aunt still living in Wales )I think she's still living there). Anyway, just wanted to shout a hello over! email me if you wish. it's a hotmail address... utensil@

Well... I should go to bed... I've actually been distracted now from finishing a #4 for tomorrow night!

Hi Gary

It was nice to hear from another Witness. But I'm leaving h2g2, after thinking about the counsel re. the dangers of the internet. My rants in defence of the Bible, while well intended, probably accomplished little. I'm going to spend my time on personal study instead - I'm behind with my Bible Reading!

Now, I don't want to sound priggish but I would think hard about staying here - after all it is a chat room and remember what's been said about them!! To be fair, you don't know that I'm really a Witness, I could be an apostate. You have no proof for anything that I say about myself and it's always dangerous to take everything on trust - that's in Proverbs, but I can't remember where. ("Put's faith in every word", you know the scripture I mean)

Wishing you well in your career as a servant of Jehovah,

Kathryn

Acutally, technically, h2g2 is not a chat room. The distinction is quite important, actually. But yes, many of the same dangers may apply. I recall few warnings against chat rooms generally, but there have been several against rooms set up specifically for Witnesses. That, at least, is not a problem here.

The main danger with this is that it eats up your time.
