by Terry inmy 19 year old daughter lily and i attended the opening day of cloud atlas.. .
i would suggest you watch this little "overview" before continuing.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubk647t944a&feature=bfa&list=plvfin74qx3twq2dnqx5f4wlrrr5b-pez7.
movies can be a lot of things ranging from mindless entertainment, spectacle, diversion, exploitation and such to straight storytelling.. what movies almost never are is what cloud atlas is.. what is it?.

in philosophy, a theory of everything or toe is an ultimate, all-encompassing explanation of nature or reality.

Martial Arts?
by Godsendconspirator ini have always had a love for martial arts (didn't know how to fight, just admire what the human body can do), but since jdub-land banned it, i just kinda forgot about it.
i admire nate quarry (an 'apostate' mma fighter) and i have been boxing for a year now.
i decided to switch over to muay thai.

A bit of hapkido back in the day. Nothing formal or fancy, mostly joint manipulation/locks, a few throws and pins, basic self defense.
Tai chi is fascinating though. Should make the time...

yea, i live there. rather chilly these days, no?
There was a meetup.com group here about 8-10 yrs ago; it's how I met a few other xjws initially, Lady Lee and Nosferatu. LL moved down east but has a Best Of section here worth a look. The local meetup group kinda faltered. Not sure if there's another one around.
headisspinning is from around here but haven't seen much posting from her lately
Stick around this place; there's a wealth of knowledge and wisdom here going back quite some time. And many posters who can offer some really good advice. Make you think. Change stuff around. Etc.
BTW, welcome :)

Does an "all knowing" God have the leisure of choosing not to know something?
by wannabefree inthis concept just always caused a conflict in my mind.
i can remove the idea of predestination with knowing something in advance, why would the watch tower insist that god chooses not to know something?
is that even possible for god?

You wouldn't think so. A god who isn't omniscient or chooses ignorance really isn't much of a god IMO

Are you now ashamed of how gullible you were as a JW?
by biometrics innow that you realise how idiotic some of the jw beliefs are/were, do you feel ashamed of how gullible you were to believe them?.
if anything my past as an adult jw makes me understand how easily manipulated people are by the people and environment around them.
and that even intelligent people can be influenced beyond what is rational..

It's not a bad thing to feel as such necessarily. A catalyst for change.
Forgiving oneself and moving on. Such simple and sublime words, seemingly elusive but dynamic and attainable.
