Its not what you think.(not sexual)We ran into an old friend that we first met when he was not a practicing dub about 10 years ago.We used to go out to dinner all the time and both his wife and mine got along well.He was a former ms and while I didnt know that he had a background with the org at the time I was all the time talking about our need for a purpose in life.
I thought I would influence him in the truth and show him the way to salvation even though I was at the time way far from the society's acceptable persona of good standing..Well,after a night of many crown royals and crab legs and prime rib and pasta bar he told me that he used to be an MS.
He was very shy to admit this as his lifestyle was not befitting a christian.For some reason or another we drifted apart and lost touch.In the meantime a couple years passed, well more than a couple maybe 10 and last years district convention,guess who we saw?Yep my buddy sitting 2 rows across from us.
Let me give you some background,I was raised a dub and went crazy at 16 before being baptised.Ive never been baptised.I had always believed though, and had never went to college.I put in full time hours though never was recognised at all as you Know.
Some of you may know that there was a few years lapse there and then we found out the truth about the truth.Without telling the whole story I would like to skip to this week.My friend is a home improvement salesperson the same as I am.We first saw him going out the door where the smokers hang out.We hadnt seen him in a while so we called out to him.He told us right away that he was back in.I took a looooong pause and said that I had done a lot of research since I had last seen him.
He said (thats great, so when are you getting baptised?)My wife was with me and she just looked at me like,THIS ONES YOURS.Well I brought up a few points about the usual un thing the flip flop and the fds.Then he just walked away and shook his head.This was so abrupt it was uncomfortable.My wife and I went back to our respective booths in the homeshow and just thought to ourselves(He is blinded).
On the very next break my wife had,she walked towards my booth and just happend to passs him againl.He GRABBED her and said I know your husband feels that way,BUT DO YOU?You know that right now you have to make a choice.
To make a long story short,my wife who has never been a dub and has no problem with the truth told him that she is the one who showed me the truth about the truth and started to speak of the need for truth in speech and the consistancy in beliefs.Needless to say he spoke of ,Either you have Gods spirit or not.
We both tried to reason with him however it was clear he was brainwashed to the point of unreasonablness.
Those dubs are programmed to reject
