Elsewhere, did you get a chance to watch some of video I left?
There are people pretty high up that are de-classifying highly classified information.

Do you believe we are alone (Aliens, God and Angels)?
by Layla33 ina post someone else made, just made me want to start a discussion on the ideas of aliens, people from other planets, etc and our ideas of god, jesus and angels/demons.. the first time i ever even thought about this on any real level was when i was taking a greek mythology course and we were talking about avatars and the like, at the very same time i was taking a philosophy course and started discussing "did god create man or did man create god".
it was during that semester that that a group of friends and i started having these very existential discussion which lead to some very interesting questions and dialogue.
i have never looked at things the same.. flash forward to about three and a half years ago and through a chain of events, i am in a room with people from nasa working on a grant proposal.

one year today
by Hortensia ina year ago today my husband was arrested after he tried to kill his own friend and a police officer, with a knife.
they shot him, and he has been in jail, having various kinds of hearings, awaiting trial since then.
every day as i go about my life i think about his choices - if he had thought longer before he took that first dose of meth, he might still have his comfortable life, freedom to go fishing when he wants, nice work, friends, so on.

Hortensia,
My heart and prayers go out to you. What a tragic life changing event to have to go through, what possible motivation did your ex husband have to do that?
Stay strong, we are all here for you and feel free to vent or share with us when you need.

I used to cut the Borg some slack...but 10 years out?...The BASTARDS!!!!
by Alpaca ini've been out for 10 1/2 years.. in the early days, after my departure, i was just glad to be out and going back to school.
i felt sorry for those who were still in living a life of delusion and failed/false dreams....and, in fact, i still do feel sorry for the r&f dubbies.
i used to even cut the borg's leadership some slack, thinking to myself that they were just caught up in their own delusions.. but, the longer i've been on jwd the madder i get at the borg leadership's outright deception, lies, coverups, and self-aggrandizing behavior.

There is nothing wrong with that feeling, as long as you feel the anger, acknowledge it but don't let it consume you.
I go through periods like that myself, especially when I hear people still making excuses for them, but then I realize they have a right to their own path and that one day I hope they get it.
But with all the lying, hypocritical sermonizing they do, back tracking, I feel you. I really do.

Scariest Movie you have ever seen?
by Layla33 ini know as exjws, probably for the most, there was a secret freedom in watching horror films without thinking you would have a demon as a bed buddy.. i am not very fond of every horror movie, but i will watch those that have an intelligent side to it and is not gore for the sake of gore.
like "the ring" got me going when i first watched it, just like "the blair witch project" did, which is more about suspense.
anyway, i never saw any of the saw movies, so i am going to try to watch saw iii tonight, since it is on showtime.

As a kid, the Shaggy DA movie scared me because seeing a man turning into a dog was tramuatizing. I could say the same thing about the fly. It was a bit disturbing.

The Rosewell incident, did indeed happen and I have talked to people who lived in New Mexico (want to visit there in the next year) and worked at the Los Alamos lab. There is no way that many people would be lying about it, as it serves no purpose.
I have read that there are actual underground cities in New Mexico and beyond.

If I ever read a Watchtower study article that encourages readers to spend leisure time with their children and families, help their neighbors, or to rest and relax for good health, I'll eat a vinyl butt cushion off a Kingdom Hall chair.
Okay, that really cracked me up. LOL!!!!

Sex and Relationships 20 Years From Now!
by new boy inthis is basicly a spin off of "flippers" sex thread in february.... the future of male/female relationships?....things are changing but we still have a long way to go!
the old paradigm is changing...... governments and religions have tried to control sex for 1,000s of years...and mostly they have done this by depowering women...they have put women in roles servitude to men.
look at the governments and religions of today....they are all male dominated.. its only been 50 years since we believed in the "donna reed" concept of women, as being "mans helper"....stay at home, make cakes and raise the kids.

I have tried to respond to this topic, but once I type up something then there's a server issue...
20 years from now I think in most first world and western countries, the ideas of relationships and marriages will have done a type of full circle, but also evolved. I think people are tired of the government sanctioned and involvement in "marriage" and partnerships and it seems like a never ending battle that takes away from the overall idea.
I don't think the idea of lifetime partnership will ever stop, whether symbolically or just mating for life. However, I think the roles of men and women will change and the ideas and motivations for partnership will continue to evolve and change. I think we will see less marriage, I think we will see more procreation out of want, older men and women having children and waiting.
I think there will be more of a technological aspect to partnership and people actually doing things that are kind of hard to wrap our head around these days. Such as being "married" but being alone during the week, being married but actually never meeting in person, getting inseminated and everything else through sterile environments like a doctor's office. I even read a book by someone about laws made for a man or woman to marry a robot!
I think it will be an everchanging situation, all I can say is that in 20 years I hope to still be doing it and still be enjoying it for what it is worth...
