    I, like millions of Watchtower followers believed that I was investing in the real truth of christianity.I was such a devout bible believer,that I had amassed an awesome biblical nemonic database.

    I actually memorized by rote over 2000 scriptual texts from the bible mostly the JW nwt version.My soulful, altrustic desire was to be able to wield the word of god alive for the betterment of my life and to aid others to find the truth.

    What do you think happened,when I 'came out' and presented my 'gift'.?You know i don't have a photographic memory, it had taken me tens of thousands of hours of brute force rote memorizing { using simple flash cards,like when we learned our multiplcation 'time tables' in grade school } took me over about 6 years to achieve this wonderful treasure.

    Well, the elders got suspicious and jealous as hell.{James 3:16}They were all over me like flies on bleep.

    { This Biblical database has now been an enormous resource to refute watchtower false dogmas ]

    I always considered myself a "deep thinker" until I caught Alan Handy of "Deep Thoughts" on Saturday Night Live! In comparison, that guy blows my socks off. So, I guess I'm just superficially superficial. Oh well! (such a deep subject!! LOL!)

    Deep thinking? Isn't there a scripture that says "great learning is driving you mad" or something like that. Shallow thinking usually starts before the deep thinking kicks in.

    Nah, I'm kind of a Jack of all Thoughts. I like to think a little bit about a whole lotta stuff. That way I can sound like I'm really really smart by knowing a factoid about any given subject.

    Is it working?

    Nah, I suck at Trivial Pursuit, plus I throw temper tantrums when I lose board games. So I guess I'm not doing a very good job of collecting those random thoughts. That reminds me... loved that random facts thread last week! haha! where is that thing...
