My fading files volume III

by Jon Preston in

i thought i could go back to the hall to be in and to point out things to wake up my children but i can't seem to go to much bs and going seems as though i'm telling my kids i agree, yet at the same time i feel helpless.

wife is completely in and she goes to a very good hall as friendlyness goes.

most my kids still not teenager's but feel as if i'm going to loose them to this cult.

It's harder to wake up if you go to a friendly hall. It predisposes us to accept bullshit without questioning.

Your wife is bound to have doubts they're probably just sleeping, you never know what will awaken them because it's different for each person.

Many witness's view doubt as the enemy, and because of that they are afraid of doubt and doubters.

But doubt is'nt the enemy of truth, it watches over it.

Doubt is how you test truth.

Hence where there is doubt there is hope.

i have been posting into the forum since 2001(my previous avatar was "justhuman" and when forum changed to net, i couldn't retrieve my old avatar so i had to use a similar one and log in again).

almost 15 years are gone.

made some friends here, including mr flipper and one that i really miss dearly is oompa.

All the best on your journey JH wherever it may lead you.

It may have felt like it would have been easier to stay in the cong, but you chose the most courageous path instead.

Dreams

so the other night i had a dream.

in it and i was in someone else's house, first scene i was cleaning the floor and found money, coins, in one of the crevices, second scene husband looks at me i look at him, hmmmm some chemistry, third scene i am in bed sleeping when i feel someone entering the bed, i know it is a man and when i opened my eyes i could see he has 3 green eyes.

he had a third eye on his forehead but at the same level of the other two.

sparrowdown

A third eye can sometimes be interpreted as special insight.

Watch out for those one-eyed trouser snakes though.

Someone elses house could mean there is some situation in you own life where you dont't feel at home or comfortable.

Finding the coins in the crevice could mean that even though you don't feel completely at home there is some value in you being there.

That's all I got.

the borg expect people to spend every waking moment (pooping and peeing excepted) "workin for the man", in fs, meetings, personal study, praying, meditating on gb's infallibility, kh working bees, erecting statues of gb in the back garden etc etc.

so between work, school, erands, shopping, home maintenance, mowing lawns etc most would agree that doesn't leave you much time.. question.. if genesis account is to be believed then god provided adam and eve with some skins to cover themselves with, but nothing else.. everything else he expected them to do for themselves.

that would have included long days of backbreaking work planting crops, finding shelter so on and so forth.. with no mod cons it would have taken all their time just to do basic things.

Maybe you could read the mags whilst bombing battleships (pooping).

Ha ha, methane on the ark -good one prologos.

With all those animals farting maybe the ark would have become the first airship if noah did'nt find land.

Baby steps and everytime you fall get back up.

Sometimes feels like two steps forward one step back, but that's still one step forward.

Question.

If Genesis account is to be believed then God provided Adam and Eve with some skins to cover themselves with, but nothing else.

Everything else he expected them to do for themselves. That would have included long days of backbreaking work planting crops, finding shelter so on and so forth.

With no mod cons it would have taken all their time just to do basic things. Did God expect them to spend every minute of every day navel gazing about how wonderful he is. Apart from the "pissing competition" between Cain and Abel there's nothing about them being expected to spend the best part of everyday "praising the lord" while they starved to death. They were expected to care for their own physical needs, and that needed to be their priority.

Because if they did'nt the human race would have died out then and there.

If everyone in the world lived as a JW. Then civilisation would disintegrate within a few short years. Because there would be nobody doing anything.

Would'nt it?

Does the WBT$ Train JW`s to be SocioPaths?!..

by OUTLAW in

profile of the sociopath .

this website summarizes some of the common features of descriptions of the behavior of sociopaths.. glibness and superficial charmmanipulative and conning .

they never recognize the rights of others and see their self-serving behaviors as permissible.

sparrowdown

I have met many witness parents who shun with zero remorse about it.

In fact one loving couple proudly told me when their daughter in law got disfellowshipped

"if this was bible times they would be the ones to stone her "(literally) no shit they stated that without an ounce of remorse, regret, sadness

or any of those other emotions us non sociopaths feel.
