Do you know why?— It is because they have not learned the secret of happiness. They think that getting a lot of things is the way to be happy. But when they get these things, their happiness does not last.
But, Happy is he who reads aloud and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and who observe the things written in it.”—REVELATION 1:3.

"During the nineteenth century the higher-critic scoffers were loud in their denunciation of the Bible’s position that Moses wrote the first five books of the Bible, one of their arguments against it being that writing was unknown at the time of Moses."
I will donate £1000 to the Watchtower Society if Goodlife can give me a verifiable reference to a 19th century scholar who claimed that writing was unknown in the 15th century BC.

Note here, It is a challenge deciding when to ignore opposers and when to speak up to defend our faith.
We can learn much from the example of one who was always perfect in discretion—Jesus. (1 Peter 2:21)
He knew when it was “a time to keep quiet.” He chose, instead, to let his public record speak for itself.
He knew that not even the truth would change proud minds and hearts. So he ignored their charge, refusing to break his purposeful silence.—Isaiah 53:7.the same is said today. (Ecclesiastes 3:7)

I say,Your mind, like your body, thrives—or starves—on what you feed it. No nutrition-minded person would eat a junk-food diet.
For it can truly be said: Tell me what you read, and I will tell you what kind of person you are.
Happy is he who reads aloud and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and who observe the things written in it; for the appointed time is near.—Rev. 1:3.

//I do not need to disprove god; It is up to believers to prove god, if they expect gods existence to be taken seriously. //
I prefer the angle Douglas N. Adams took
"I refuse to prove I exist," says God "for proof denies faith and, without faith, I am nothing."
I'll avoid spoiling the punchline and merely paraphrase you by saying "It's up to believers to have faith". In which case, they needn't worry a jot about whether disbelievers take them seriously or not.

They're going to have a bit of a job, aren't they, Naomi? You are what you read, eh? Well, apart from the Bible and the Koran (which obviously account for my dandruff and short temper) there's a bit of the high-brow stuff I like to swank about when Khandro's in the room, but then there's Hitchhikers' Guide to the Galaxy and Riotous Assembly.

You’ve Got to Be Kidding!
During the first 17 centuries of human existence, everyone spoke just one language, having “one set of words.” (Gen. 11:1)
Then came the rebellion of Nimrod’s day. Contrary to Jehovah’s instructions, disobedient humans gathered at what later came to be called Babel, determined to remain in one location. They started to build a massive tower, not to give Jehovah glory, but to “make a celebrated name” for themselves. So Jehovah confused the original language of those rebels and caused them to speak various tongues. So they were scattered over all the surface of the earth.—Read Genesis 11:4-8.
Today, literally thousands of languagesare spoken in the world. Each of these languages requires different thought patterns. It appears, then, that when Jehovah God confused the speech of those rebels, he blotted out all memory of their previous common language. He not only introduced into their minds new vocabularies but also changed their thought patterns and produced new grammars. No wonder the location of that tower came to be called “Confusion,” or Babel! (Gen. 11:9, ftn.)
So interestingly, only the Bible gives a satisfying explanation of the origin of the diversity of languages that we see today.
And as fascinating as the Bible account about God’s intervention at Babel may be, for some,
Something even more interesting and important has occurred in our time. Through his prophet Zephaniah, Jehovah foretold: -Then I shall give to peoples the change to a pure language, in order for them all to call upon the name of Jehovah, in order to serve him shoulder to shoulder.” (Zeph. 3:9)
What is that “pure language,” and how can you learn to speak it fluently?
