Fishy problem.
by mtbatoon inso ive had this fish tank set up for a year and a bit and the stock has slowly dwindled through one thing or another, the main being a bad water change when the ph dropped and some rather nasty silver tipped tetras who seem to have bullied themselves down to two in number.
current residences are a plecostomous, coolie loach and the two remaining tetras.
on saturday i bought five lady guppies and two flying foxes.

To answer the subject question, I believe God created humans with the need to worship something/someone. This is why there's some type of religion in all human societies.

I don't understand why people keep saying this. If you were born in the middle of a jungle and raised by apes I bet you wouldn't worship anything. We are taught to be religious. If religion weren't in the way we'd just be our true selves without putting on any air of superiority because of an imagined connection with a supposed higher being. If there is a God he is not talking to ANYBODY! (tamtam of the 'I'm over it' class)

Hey Vassago - Welcome to the forum. I live in Oakland County. I haven't met ANY ex-dubs in person. The last cong. I attended was Pontiac East. I haven't been in over 7 years and I don't know who's in and who's out.
You were smart not to let them pressure you into baptism. They just automatically assume that everyone who goes to the kingdumb hall HAS to get baptized. Gesh, what a f'd up way to be ... they can't love you for who you are, only if you're one of them. So glad I got out.
Maybe we can get an apostafest going and meet up. There is a group that meets in the area. Maybe someone will chime in. I love to get out and have a good time. I have a couple of teenagers too ... talk about somebody being glad to be out of the cult! My kids are ECSTATIC.

Away from the "Core" - Subversion at the Convention
by ezekiel3 inlast year i thought i would share my diligent notes and show what it was like at the core of the organization.. not this year.
for a learning experience, i decided to stray from the active ones and see what everyone else was doing during this convention.
perhaps this would be special since the whole theme of the dc was "godly obedience".

Great review ...thanks for posting. Gives me hope that more and more are getting bored with the borg. The fake-filled derelict slave drivers are losing their grip on the R&F. They think it's because of materialism/work/education - NO - people are tired of being pressured to conform to a life of servitude to the WTBTS. If they'd loosen their grip they could hold on to more new converts and keep the lifers happy at the same time. Sad that power and control take priority over human interest.
