  Hi

  Iam not a homosexual....But now I have left the organisation I love the freedom to accept people for WHO they are with out the judgemental attitude.

  Iam only slowly learning how arrogent I was and how delicate the humun mind is to accept PROPERGANDA:

  That is why I started a thread last week on what Jesus meant by judging.

  I think we go through life in a dark room with the blinds closed. Occassionally those blinds are opened and we have the chance to accept new ideas. But we do this when we stop being so righteouse or superior then we allow those blinds to be opened.

  I mean everything I belived in all my hopes goals and aspirations were nothing but a pipe dream. But the hardest thing to accept is I judged better people than me as lesser. This is hard to live with.

  If you tell someone "They will burn in hell " you are judging them.

  Tell them they will" live forever" you are also judging them.

  (How are we judged by that measure).....

  blaming the writting department or the governing body for the watchtower policies and studies makes the blame impersonal.. who are the individuals ?.............the people pulling the strings !!

  for example who (as individuals) are the watchtower laywers?...who as an individual wrote the latest study article?

  who approved it?.

  Celia.

  I was reading a positive thinking book by" Norman Vincent Peale "and the 2 illustrations were used .I guess to say even if life has dealt us a bad hand, Its best if possible to look at the optimistic and positive.

  So Iam trying to see the positive not negative in the day.

  Hi Shamus my friend "Been drinking Tonight" .. I just got out of bed (Its 10am here) And off to work .Trying to feal good on that.........(I love your posts..and comments )
