  Unacknowledged!

  so...i watched the new netflix movie, "uncknowledged" by dr steven greer today fierce hearing to dj's discussing it on the radio, minds blown.

  it makes a strong case for ufo's and totally screws up jw doctrine about the earth having the only intelligent life in the universe, as it is where the issue of universal sovereignty is played out and decided....the gb will need to do some fast talking.

  it will be fascinating to blow some jw minds with this.

  I thought that about dr Greer before I actually listened to him. The thing about this movie are all of the credible witnesses testifying on the record in this film, including high ranking military, astronauts, a lord admiral....give it a watch and then make up your mind. it has nothing to do with his contact stuff.

  My husband is a pilot and a big skeptic who is now open minded on the subject. My cousins husband was a captain for a major airline flying having a direct sighting as well as being in Phoenix for the light show a few years back so I am more of a believer then skeptic.

  The disclosure project actually did happen in 2001 before 9/11 and was through the national press club and in front of members of congress too. You just have to dig it up to verify it. Unfortunately, the world changed so drastically after 9/11 the revelations weren't mainstream news.

  The film was literally interviews and statements of expert eye witnesses going on the record and not meditation chanting, although I'm aware he does that. I also live in an area where the big defense contractors are building and testing crazy stuff and I'm aware of reported sightings that were referenced in the movie. So, I lean towards the film being truthful, but everyone should make up their own minds and I respect your opinion, smiddy3.

  Revision and new info for Chapter 25 New Boy 50 years a Watchtower slave

  by new boy in

  my upbringing in the church had taught me that they were detestable in god’s eyes.

  they drove the point home with scripture after scripture.

  leviticus 20:13 "if a man practices homosexuality, having sex with another man as with a woman, both men have committed a detestable act.

  Oh this stoopid shunning thing!!

  by Unstuck in

  warning - vent ahead....... so, my father (still very much in jw but who has at least had the decency to still keep in contact with me and hubby and to show interest in why we aren't attending and respect where we are at) is in intensive care at a local hospital and is intubated and sedated with some serious health issues.

  i'm next of kin so i get all the phone calls from the hospital.. so, the rest of the "family" has cut me off because we are inactive and because the ever-active jw gossip grapevine has rumoured with a sibilant slithy hissy voice: "apossstassssy" is the cause of our inactivity.. whatever.. but now i've had to contact said "family" with the news about my father and what is going on....... so, dad's sisters answer my calls and manage to act and conduct themselves with a degree of decorum.. my sister on the other hand - well, she doesn't deign to answer my calls and texts for most of the day.

  i push the issue tonight and insist on speaking to her when my brother-in-law answers the call.

  Dear Unstuck, remarkedly im in the same situation with my dad and sister. I can tell you that it's the first time I've spoken or seen my sister in 6 years since becoming "inactive". My dads situation was months in the hospital and both she and I were able to work together helping dad. I'm very grateful for the cooperation as it makes a difficult situation much easier. Initially our meeting was strained, but now we are managing a somewhat emotionally distant but sisterly relationship in spite of the dissonance. Keep doing what you are doing honoring your dad, loyally and lovingly caring for him. The hospital staff's response to your caring for your dad may have a positive affect on her to the point she could at least acknowledge you to be a good person and not deserving death by angelic execution. What was good for me is having reacquainted with her side of the family, I realize I'm just fine and happy where I am and I'm not longing for that relationship as she/they are anymore so entrenched in the religion. It's like they have a 'stepford wife syndrome"; very surreal and kinda freaky. Smh. Wishing your dad a complete recovery and to tell you to hang in there and just be yourself. My kids always say, "mom, just do you". Great advice and so I'm humbly passing it along. All the best!

  No Longer Afraid

  greetings, dear friends and fellow survivors:.

  i am grateful to be alive and associated with like-minded people, both here on this wonderful forum and in day-to-day interaction with friends, neighbors, clients, but, sadly, few if any jehovah's witnesses.

  i have, somehow, become detached from the sadness and sorrow of the past, about which i have written on this and other ex-jw forums for some dozen-plus years.
