  Do You Consider Yourself An "Apostate"?

  i don't.. i consider myself a truth teller.. the watchtower society appears to be more "apostate" than even "christendom"..

  I never considered myself apostate, even though by definition I am precisely that for leaving the witness life and belief.

  It's their word they wield as a weapon against the membership to isolate, intimidate and eradicate ideas and people who dissent.

  I understand the desire to turn it around into something that isn't what they say it is and to have something to identify with.

  This is still using their word, and they can keep it IMO

  So many other labels to identify with ;)

  No. Death is by definition the end.

  Will we ever find out

  Unlikely

  i was publicly reproved last year and the elders have taken their sweet time in reinstating my "privileges".

  it's been six months and i can't answer at the meetings or participate in the theocratic ministry school.

  in all honesty- i don't care about the privileges.

  I was there, with respect to age, situation, elders, direction, etc. Most here understand completely where you're at. You're not alone.

  Work towards getting out. Find out what suites you and what doesn't. Carve out a future.

  Live the life YOU want.

  The greatest invention mankind has produced (besides the printing press) is FALSIFIABILITY.

  I've heard it said the internal combustion engine ranks that high but I'm rather skeptical of this claim.

  http://www.independent.co.uk/news/science/life-after-death-largestever-study-provides-evidence-that-out-of-body-and-neardeath-experiences-may-actually-be-real-9780195.html.

  "experts currently believe that the brain shuts down within 20 to 30 seconds of the heart stopping beating and that it is not possible to be aware of anything at all once that has happened.. but scientists in the new study heard said they heard compelling evidence that patients experienced real events for up to three minutes after this had happened and could recall them accurately once they had been resuscitated.".

  how are people having "experinces" while there is no evidence of heart or brain activity?.

  All of these accounts are from living people. They may have been NEAR death, but no one actually died.

  Indeed.

  Cool. An upgrade from the Virgo Supercluster.
