I'm not racist but.....
by Burger Time insavemysoul made a good point that i have heard often.
semi/full blow racist remarks are usually started off with "i'm not racist but..." then add some blanket statement afterwards.
so is racism now the new gay?

Just like in the Theocratic School, where we learned to take current events and stuff and turn the conversation to JW stuff, (I hate using the word stuff!), we can also use the same principle with this stuff.

Those are good, but to use them on most of the people who are still in, you have to repackage them.
Memorize one or two, and present them away from the aPOZtate source, if yah know what I mean. -

Is Satan getting a bad rap?
by lovelylil inthe thread on spiritism got me thinking about all the ridiculous things the jw's in my hall blamed on satan.
like their kid getting a cold and they had to miss the meeting or getting a flat tire on saturday, thus missing field service.. i always wondered if satan is such a powerful spirit creature, why the hell would he waste his time flattening tires or causing a runny nose?
you would think he would be causing wwiii or another plague or something!.

He gets a bad rap, but he also gets more credit than he deserves:
Set-hen = Satan?

I'm totally excited!
by coolhandluke inwhen i interviewed for my position my now boss asked me why i didn't have a degree.
my mind filtered out "well you see sir i wasn't allowed to go to college and without that hope basically glided through high school and then went to a trade school so that i could eat.
" instead i told him that it was one of my major goals.

What's Your View of Spiritism Now???
by minimus inof course, as witnesses, everything was possibly "demonized".
if you got anything second hand, you could be in demon trouble.
if you saw a horror movie or read anything by stephen king, you were inviting the demons to you.

Ouija boards:
They work!!!
That is why the Society was right about one thing: they are dangerous. But, as was stated, if you implement the protective measures, and ALL the participants are on the same page as far as realizing that it isn't a game, then you would be OK.
When there are bad Ouija board stories, it always involves people who take it as a joke, and/or people who do not properly protect the participants. -

One last knowledge bump for those who this fits to the T:
* Are intelligent (though did not necessarily have top grades).
* Are very creative and enjoy making things.
* Always need to know WHY (especially why they are being asked to do something).
* Had disgust and perhaps loathing for the inanity of much of the required work in school, the repetition.
* Were rebellious in school, refusing to do homework, rejecting authority of teachers OR seriously wanted to rebel, but didn't DARE, usually due to parental pressure.
* May have experienced early existential depression and feelings of helplessness. These may have ranged from sadness to utter despair. Suicidal feelings while still in high school or younger are not uncommon in the Indigo Adult.
