i had this horrible nightmare a couple of nights ago which i haven't told anyone, fearing that they'll all conclude that it's my conscience warning me.
here's how i remember it:.
remember the biblical prophecy that mentions when christ comes back again "all eyes will see him"?
ThiChi,
The response shows the age and overall maturity. Before such a horrific event, nobody knows how they'll react.
Thanks for sharing your past experience.

i havent prayed in years.
i quit praying while i was still going to meetings.
i stopped praying when my elder ex would pack the kids in the car and say if i didnt go to the meeting then i wouldnt see them again.
I bow my head in sign of respect when I attend meetings, but my mind is not there or even listening to what's being said. Sometimes I've been surprised by the 'Amen' because I wasn't paying attention at all.
Even when I say thanks some days in the morning for the new day, or before a meal, it's very mechanical and not heartfelt at all.

what are some of the more popular jobs jws seem to flock to in your opinion?
personally, the latest trend in my area is school bus driver as well as school bus monitor.
i can think of six jws who drive school buses and two who are monitors.
Due to the WTBTS 'Old Light' on education, there are many many many unskilled workers now.
But, don't be misled, that's changing. Most of the young people in the cong I attend that have graduated from H.S. are already attending college, a couple even right to a four year college.
Thanks to the 'New Light' on education, the next generation of Witnesses will be much better off education wise.

In the Spanish congs, lots of CNAs working mainly at nursing homes.
Also quite a few house and laundry cleaners. A few even have gone out on business for themselves and make a really nice pay for it.

this was a phrase spoken by a woman on abc news tonight, re: the catholic sex abuse scandal.
i love this phrase, especially when applied to the jw's and their spokesmen's regular denials that they had anything to do with the abuse.
no, they did'nt order their members to molest children.
In the WTBTS the enablers are the elders, the elders, and the elders. Big time!

Bryan and Elsewhere - Thanks for sharing your experiences.
LittleToe - You sure are lucky 'cause those dreams/nightmares can make anyone crap their pants!
Franklin J - Yeap, it sure was like taken right out of a science fiction movie! But, it seemed 100 times more real.

Thanks Gitasatsangha! Hope you're correct on the theory of my mind working things out.
Thanks again!

I break most of the rules, but the one that really bothers me is not being able to talk to disfellowshipped ones.

Gee, Elsewhere, I sure hope you're right.
I mean, I had never ever had an Armageddon dream like this! This was so vivid that it freaked me out and scared the heck out of me!!!
