  1. jw

  the lovely jbeanz brought up the peoples temple in the my book of bible stories thread.

  the jonestown tragedy ... images of which i'll never get out of my head.

  then in other threads we've talked about mounting scandels of the jw's, losing young believers, older members having doubts, doctinal switcheroos, the ever-increasing threat of the internet .... .... it all makes me wonder: .

  My Book of Bible Stories

  by Taylor S. in

  2. beliefs

  i just got my hands on a copy of my book of bible stories ... (1978).

  at first i was excited when a friend pulled it out of his bag, said he'd gotten it as a kid.

  then i started flipping through, looking at the pictures, feeling the memories spin in my brain.

  What would God say?

  by Taylor S. in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  coffee makes my mind wander.

  this morning after reading some threads, i thought ... how could god logically expect man to grow closer to him as time keeps rolling further and further away from the miracles of old.. haven't seen a burning bush or nothing in a hot minute.

  i mean, those are the things that kept people's attention.

  A JWD / Knowledge Jones ...

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i've been thinking about it in my sleep ... can sleep.

  it's been less than a month since i stumbled onto this site while researching the roots of jwism for a character i'm writing on.

  since then, i haven't written anything, haven't done much recreationally .... i've just been digging deeper through this site and simultaneously .... digging through my memories of growing up dub.

  i was always fascinated with dinosaurs as a kid.

  i remembering asking my mother how come the bible doesn't mention the dinosaurs ... i mean, if he created everything, he must've created the dinosaurs.
