Yes, it's probably a load of rubbish, but it's a nice story hahaha
Thanx Needproof ... I've got more "Stories" to entertain you with, if you care to hear them...
does he/it really exist to you?
since i've become more empowered in my fade.....i've been realizing satan is just a huge guilt tool used by religion in general.
at this point i believe 'he' doesn't exist...........

Second cousin on me mum's side.
He's a bit of a wanker all right, but I think he's just misunderstood. He had a bit of a rough go as a child - he always knew that JC was his dad's fave.
LMAO Bizzy...
this past weekend, we met a new couple in our campground, and the conversation soon came 'round to the supernatural.
the lady said she has had quite a few supernatural experiences, and that she plays her own home-made version of the ouija board.
my husband was all excited and begged her to play .
(most people use dry glasses...not wet ones, especially not frozen ones)..
Hi Lore......I appreciate your input here on this thread. Don't think that I didn't have some of these thoughts as well....I always try to reason things out...makes my husband mad that I tend to be too practical. The glass was pulled right from the cupboard...clean and dry. She used her table, in her brand new 5th wheel trailer...there was no tilt to it.
We were not breathing heavy...I'm a light breather anyways, especially if I'm nervous ; and the candle was off to the right of me, away from where I could breathe into it, thereby causing any flickering. The windows were closed, as they had the a/c on low.
The cat came in at the end and jumped onto the table...it didn't sit there during.
I was nervous, because of all the things I was taught as a witness...and you know, it does make one wonder...why would a "spirit" spell out the word no, and then decide to come back and "talk" anyways? Well, it probably wouldn't, unless it was a different spirit.
My husband and the lady were asking the questions, and because the campground is near a cemetary, the lady wasn't sure of "who" she'd get....so they asked if the spirit was male or female, young or old...yadda, yadda.
Sure, she could have been pulling my leg, but I didn't get that vibe from her. I'm a very good judge of character, and my gut instincts have never steered me wrong. I believe this woman has some kind of spiritual connection, she certainly seems to have had enough experiences with the spirit world.
I sat silent....watching, with one finger on the glass....we each had only one finger on the top of the glass. The glass did not move while we did not have our fingers on it.
It was just really different. I can now say that I've tried it, but I will not do it again. My mother would freak if she knew I have tried this....
hi again, sorry i haven't been able to get to the computer for days now as i am so tired when i get home from the hospital.
yesterday i was just so out of things i had to take a break mentally and emotionally.. it is terrible seeing marco everyday being sick and deteriating.
on sunday after church i went to the hospital and just got there in time to speak to the cadiologist.
I'm so sorry OFC....I am keeping you and Marco in my thoughts and prayers.
so i posted a while back about my marriage problems.... whole new gambit thrown into the mix.
i've had suspicions all along that something like this might be happening... but only just not confirmed that she's been cheating on me... with another jw that she works with!
she could have been more discreet about it rather than leave all the text messages on her phone.
What boggles me is how she can talk about "the truth" and go to all her meetings and be so visciously defensive about "the organization" yet blatantly disobey the rules of said organization...
Yup...my sister-in-law did this to my brother, with his best friend, who is an elder....my brother divorced her, because she thought she and this elder were going to hook up....hahaha....he denied everything, and she left town, and eventually married another "brother", cough...
Neither of them have been caught yet....makes me sick...
You must have time to sort out your feelings, and make the decision that is best for you. I wish you luck....and I'm so sorry this has happened to you.
i regularly talk to a poster on this board via the pm system...............mainly because i like his mind.......today he suggested in reply to something i had said that basically men and women dont do friendship.........he asked the question 'why do people even bother with each other if they dont fancy each others intimacy?
'...............not that he was suggesting this about us.........but i am just wondering what you lot think.. it has been my experience to have some wonderful men friends...........i love mens company and their conversation..........now i am wondering if all those 'mates' were/are after something else............well not really........i am pretty sure at least some of them arent.. so whats your view/experience.........can men and women just be good friends.. oh and to my friend who i pm.........this is not a criticism of you.........i am interested in what others experiences are..........and i will give you a big kiss (on the cheek) one day when i see ya to make up for it.......... fi.
It has been my experience to have some wonderful men friends
Yes, me too.
I married a man who became my best friend.
and to think, it'll be the day after my birthday!
my daughter is being induced as we speak.
wish her luck!
Happy belated birthday, Minimus.....and congratulations on becoming a new Grandfather. Are you going to be at the hospital????? Don't forget your camera......and the Cee-gars.
Happy Birthday, Davegod....have a great day....
it arrived today, i spotted it in an on-line auction a few weeks ago, good price, reputable company with lots of happy customers, too good to resist.. pentium 3 850, 256mb ram, 20gb hd, 2 batteries (charging, yet to see what state they're in) with docking station.
dvd rom and floppy drive on the docking station, got a wireless card ordered for it.
for the dollars not a bad system - man i need to get a life!
Yes, Brinjen. She's beautiful. She has her mother's eyes....
Seriously, congratulations.
as many of you know, i've mentally left the organization but i'm still actively involved, even with positions of responsibility.
i wanted to do a successful quiet fade out of the org but at the same time i don't want any involvement with it.
i would love to send a da letter right now but some things had been holding me back.
So overall after much thought, I wonder I would be missing much if I left the org. Am I just putting myself through an unneccesary burden by staying in?
It doesn't sound like you'd be missing much, RF.

Start getting in contact with your aunt. Maybe she can help get a family get together going - re-introduce you to your cousins, reach out to them, establish closer relationships with them.
Great advice...you have lots of family behind you, and maybe your dad will leave the "truth" too, once you do. That would be great.
Best of luck to you, RF. You'll feel so much better after this is all behind you. We're here for you too.
