  Something funny about Armageddon

  years ago, when i was still a publisher, i had a very interesting conversation with a lady in the field service.

  we were talking about punishment for sin and so on.

  she believed in hellfire.

  Vanderhoven7 your articles you brought up just gave me a twitch of PTSD. Being fed this crap constantly as a child kill any chance of a normal childhood. The only funny thing is and it's not really funny is the sick person who came up with this crap must of hated himself and everyone around him. I wonder how many adults still get nightmares over this sick thinking? Still Totally ADD

  conversation with a JW about the sun

  by neat blue dog in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  jw: didn't we just hear somebody say that the sun's gonna blow up?.

  me: well, they were saying that it will expand and eventually burn out.. jw: but it can't do that, it just keeps blowing up inside and getting more power.. me: well, they were talking about stars in general, how they have a life span.. jw: but god didn't make it that way, it's firmly established to time indefinite.

  it's not like the sun is a regular star.

  If I were still of the anointed . . .

  greetings, earth-bound friends:.

  i guess at this point in life, given what we all now know, we no longer harbor any delusions of grandeur.

  my temporary insanity, which i've written about on other threads, was that assurance of being in heaven with jehovah and jesus and the other 143,999 kings and priests.

  Very interesting CC. The only disillusional thinking I had was I wanted to study to the resurrected Abraham Lincoln. I could care less about going to heaven. After all, no sex up there. Lol. Still Totally ADD

  president trump is definitely a demagogue, a populist, and not a great extemporaneous speaker, just to mention few of his more conspicuous flaws.

  however, i was going along because "it's the economy stupid".

  now that has changed.

  Above the Fog, Below the Snow

  i live in the sierra nevada foothills of california; a selling point for prospective homeowners in the slightly lower elevation is what is touted in the subject title.

  well, right now we are being blasted by a storm barreling down from canada, with hazardous driving and blizzard conditions in the offing, higher up.. as to fog, this photo offers a rare display of misty conditions over our lake, that after the last major rain storm.

  it reminds me of summer days of my youth on the pacific coast..

  Here in Western NY the first part of this week was mild with temp. In the 40's and 50's last evening after heavy rain all day the temp. dropping it started snowing. Very heavy wet snow with high winds. I don't know how much we have but I am guessing around 6 inches. For a area that is accustom to snow this has kind of gotten every one off guard. Oh well another test to see if my back surgery I had back in September is working.l💪 Lol. CC your picture is beautiful. Take care. Still Totally ADD

  Everything stumbles the Borg. Just before my wife and I left a married couple should not hold hand during a prayer. Because it might stumbles some new comer who may think we are thinking about having sex. Tight pants, holding hands, women wearing pants, tight clothing, pillows and on and on. It's all causes sex according to the cult. But it is alright to talk crazy shit on stage because God is with us. Still Totally ADD

  Did You Ever Find The Theolgy of JWs Reasonable?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  when i was a young man growing up in the religion, i would try to defend whatever the understanding of a doctrine was.

  i won a lot of arguments based on the idea that i knew better than anyone i was talking to and defended myself admirably.

  (lol)....eventually, i realized i was in a cult but for many years i was a believer and i had faith that the gb knew more that i could understand..

  sparky1. You must be very intelligent to have read those two books between the ages of 5-7. I honestly was trap in the the box of the jw cult since birth I never thought much about the reasonableness of the theology of the wt. But as a child I often wonder how they knew all about the Bible and other religions didn't. I can see now it was all blind trust. But that thinking of them against us was very im bedded in me.

  "the way you walked was thorny, through no fault of your own, but as the rain enters the soil, the river enters the sea, so tears run to a predestined end.

  now you will have peace for eternity.

  flipper I say that all the time when friends ask me how I feel. I tell them I am just Abby Normal. One of the best lines in that movie.

  From Dances with Wolves when Higgins comes across a skeleton with a arrow in it he says "Why don't you just write". Still Totally ADD

  the oldest reference i can find is 2012, as follows:.

  "think of that if you are ever tempted to violate god’s command not to associate with your disfellowshipped relatives.

  " the watchtower 2012, 4/15/ p. 12 par.

  JV I remember in the early 70's during the 15 min. break between public talk and the watchtower study the ones that smoked went behind the 7-11 store next to the KH for a smoke. In a congregation of about 100 at the time I would say 15 to 20 were smoking. Those were the days. Still Totally ADD
