That's a really lovely scene Outlaw, I was totally seeing it. What else do you get up to on the ranch? Is it a working ranch? Do you have other people living out there?

13A day in the Life of a MountainMan
by OUTLAW inmy well has dried up.so i go down to the creek where i gold pan,for water..the creeks are freezing up here,so the water is dam cold.if you stood in the water for a few minutes your feet would go numb.the current may even knock you off your feet..i`ve seen some wildlife in these mountains that i haven`t seen before.i`m new to this area of the mountains..yesterday when i was down at the creek,a few small birds flew in and stood on the rocks in the creek..tiny birds,about as big as a sparrow.charcoal in colour and thier feet were not webbed..these tiny birds would dive in to this cold rushing creek,grab food from the bottom ,pop up on a rock and eat thier food..i was suprised they didn`t die of cold or were`nt washed down stream and drowned..this is the first time i have ever seen a land bird do this.i coudn`t stop watching it was so cool..i went back home and worked on the well a bit.i heard this loud flapping above my head,it was a friggin large eagle looking for prey..different wildlife show up as the seasons pass..i wonder what i`ll see next?...outlaw

Way to go Country Guy. I don't really know your story, but it sounds like not only are you on your OWN two feet, you're running forward.

The heart of the true believer.
by Elihu/Elijah inthis is my first time posting.
i read many of the comments provided by forum users and immediately started to experience once more the pain and hurt that i, my wife, and others feel who have been labeled and made to feel unworthy by, the organization.
the way i cope in my life is to believe in god's own words, not man's.

Welcome E/E,
I am glad that you have started to figure out how to find peace and answers in your life. They more people who do this -by being comforted and finding true peace by the bible, Buddha, atheism, what have you, the better we will all treat each other and get along.

God's Channel of Instruction = "trusted & loyal followers"
by yaddayadda inthe oct 15 2006 wt, main article about getting to know god, page7, under the subheading, 'identifying god's channel of instruction':
"where can we find assistance in understanding the word of truth and then in living in accord with it?
in israel of old, god provided leadership through trusted and loyal individuals in positions of responsibility.

Attn: College Students
by NYCkid inhey, for you yahoo/google discussion group junkies, i've just created a discussion group on both yahoo and google for former and current jws who are attending college or are seriously thinking about attending college (meaning you've begun the process).
this is for us to centralize discussion on issues relating to college and to network and encourage academic excellence.
check them out, i'd like to get this started.

By the way, here at *college* all we do is shoot up drugs and have wild sex orgies. That is when we are not promoting anarchy, witchcraft and Satanism.
The whole "increasing your knowledge of the beautiful world around you and developing critical thinking skills to function in it" is total crap and an excuse for the above activities.

The New Kadampa Tradition - Can anyone tell me about this?
by parakeet ini have a question i hope those who are familiar with the practice of buddhism can help me with.
after several years of reading about eastern religious philosophy, i've decided to go a step further and seek direct instruction in buddhist meditation and practice.
i live too far away from a major city to regularly attend the many choices of meditation classes available there.

When I've had the wherewithall to do it on my own it was ever so much more effective than doing it with a group.
Right now I am struggling a little bit, so I need a group.

Mom nearly ate me alive!
by Anony-Mouse inwe had a major talk about jws today.
i couldn't use the un or pedophiles, as this is 'outside' information, and she would never belive me.
then she would question my source, and i'd be killed by elder firing squad.

Anony-mouse you are really cute.
Be nice to your mommy.
Also, you can get on talk.origins.org for really great evolution info, as a lot of their info is organized in a way where you can find "creationist" points to refute. i.e. you can look up a specific question your mom has and find an accurate answer.
as to some other issues... go to jwfacts.com and look at "questionable teachings" I understand what you mean about coming up with things that need to seem like you thought of them yourself. a few of the subjects on that site won't fit the bill, but the questionable teachings section is ok, like you might have been thinking that those teachings were questionable anyway...
Also, could you do a research report on the role of the UN in history and accidentally "find out" that the WT was a UN NGO-member? It's right on the UN website, so could totally be something you come across doing a school report.
Best o luck to you,
