Sure. Heaps of people. I'm not one of them.
I've never seen any secular, or archaelogical evidence to support the Bible's version of this great series of events . These people are supposed to have spent 40 years wandering in the desert and nobody has found so much as a broken pot that they might have tossed out. It's as real as Jehovah living in the Pleades.
if christians are the gentiles .... ............many nations of man.
god's earthly children shepherded by gods heavenly kingdom.
through jesus the son via the bible inspired to men by the power of holy spirit, to become workers/slaves of god on earth to do the sowing/planting, growing on the crop ready for the master to harvest / see the produce of the great work effort ?
I didn't come right until I admitted that everything I thought I knew about God had been supplied by the cult that I'd had the misfortune to be born into.
hello again, following my story with this girl , and after she blocked me on fb and not answering my phone calls since december , i am now thinking of taking revenge.my feelings of pain are starting to become hate ,and pain always is accompanied by the feeling of revenge to satisfy this bad feeling.i just cant simply forget what shes done to me.
the reasons of my revenge :.
1.she played with my feelings when she knew from the start that she would leave me one day.
She gave you the warning signs and you didn't listen. Learn from your mistake and move on.
do you hold god accountable for the corruption of the borg?
i've noticed there seems to be a bitterness, by some, that includes "god" in the equation, when discussing the borg and their policies, the governing body, elders actions, etc.
do the borg's transgressions originate with god, or does he feel the same disgust as we do?
If you were raised in a cult, why not start afresh?
Can you trust anything you were taught?
Why try to cherry pick the bits of the cult you liked?
Personally I couldn't have any sort of half decent relationship with anyone who killed innocent children because their parents offended them.
i've been journaling a lot the past couple of years....it was recommended to me by a therapist when my anger was boiling over.. so recently i decided to start an exercise: what would you tell them if they would listen?.
i've started listing my top 10 and it's interesting......i'm over all of the doctrinal insanity.....i'm forever indebted to the more scholarly among us that have put so much effort into research, writing, etc.!!!.
mine all focused on more 'human' subjects....emotions, pain, etc.
Target something they said that doesn't make sense, is hypocritical, or is contradicted by the WT, or their Bible.
If you ask the right question they will lie about WT doctrine so that they don't look like The Crazies. Get them to promise to read *** article. Know how to direct them to articles you want them to read that make their church leaders look like right twits.
i saw them coming down the street...the excitment grew.....then 2 people walked up to my door.... .
one could hardly speak english...struggling to invite me to the memorial....i said "why should i go".
they told me ...bec jesus died for everyone just one day a year is very important.... .
She scammed you. Her son is a NevawasaDub & isn't included in the shunning policies
i thought the page on the official jw site "are you an american sect?
" is quite disturbing.
the borg really has no problem lying thru their teeth!".
Another irrelevant answer to another irrelevant question

be dismissed without evidence.

Better late than never, my friend. Welcome to the forum.
3rd gen, produced a 4th gen, myself.
Now watching old time JWs denying what was taught in their youth as they go to their deathbeds and watch their partners die to be resurrected to lives of eternal celibacy in Jehovah's happy La La Land where a quick snog behind the bike sheds with their former marriage mates of decades could end with eternal death for both of them as a result of their lust for their, now, perfect, prime of life, beautiful, sexy, spunky, better than ever, bodies.
Cheers for St. Patrick's Day

again comments are appreciated..
Sorry I didn't put a comment on your blog because I think I have to join something to do that and I don't agree to anything until my arm is about to break. Please correct me if I wrong.
I've followed your progress since your first post. You were a stroppy bugger back then. Still are, it seems, except you have your head in a better place.
I wish I could call in to Monster Cafe to shake your hand, eat your food, drink your beer and hug your missus, but seeing as I'm at the other end of the planet, it's very unlikely.
Cheers
Chris
below is the link to the live bald eagle cam.
mommy and daddy have 2 eggs, and one has hatched within the past hour or so, and the other egg is rolling around, ready to hatch at any minute!!!.
there are so many people connecting to the live cam, that you may have to keep refreshing until you get connected.
Thanks for that Ohio. Ugly little buggers when they are fresh out of the egg. I'll be watching their progress.
Talesin gave us a head's up for an osprey last year and I was lucky enough to be logged in to see it with it's bum still in half the shell. Doncha just love modern tech?
