I remember decades ago watching 'Alien' and couldn't get out of my mind the scene where the creature burst out of the person's chest at the dinner table. Yuk!
Recently, we watched 'The Descent'. A group of women take a weekend break and choose a cave to explore. I found it terrifying. Don't know if anybody has seen it here...I couldn't quite make sense of the end scene.

Resurrection or Truth
by XJWNB innot sure if this has ever been brought up.
but because of thsi forum and the realization that things said in the jw empire are not true.
do you still believe in the resurrection hope?

The body is disposable it's the person inside that is important.
When you think of it our body changes every 7 years through shedding cells etc.
I believe that regardless of what type of resurrection a person undergoes, into a spirit body or a physical one, neither is the exact same one we had before. Does it even matter? As long as we are remembered in God's eyes or memory.
Yeah, I believe we live again.

IT IS EASIER TO LEAVE JWS IF NONE OF YOUR FAMILY ARE JWS
by steve2 inone of the biggest - if not the biggest barriers - to leaving the organization is family ties - particularly immediate family (i.e., those living in your household: sons, daughters, mothers, fathers, mother-in-laws, father-in-laws).
i know of no bigger barrier.
therefore, it's relatively easy to predict who will face the most adversity in trying to leave.

The only person I had to contend with when exiting was myself. That was 2 decades ago. Went back and forth also but have now completely left.
I couln'nt imagine anything worse than leaving my family members and even with just myself I felt disloyal. It has taken years to overcome - guess it went deep.

What's your opinion on genetic engineering?
by LtCmd.Lore inare you opposed to it?
where do you see it heading?.
would you allow your future child to be genetically altered if you knew it would drastically improve them?

I have to go a bit further and voice my concern about scientists turning mad and producing a strange breed made up of half man and half animal.
Currently in stem cell research there is a combining of human and animal genetics and I read somewhere recently of tissue taken from dead persons instead of human embryos to overcome ethical objections.
Remember Frankenstein.

As we grow older
by greendawn inas time passes and you grow older and more mature how does your life or your outlook on life and one or other issue change?
i was thinking yesterday how silly it was to fall in love with a girl, focus exclusively on her and run the risk of serious disappointment and trauma if she left when there were so many other women in the world.
when you had no marriage or children to worry about.

'No being overly attached to the wrong people or things is what results in heartache.'
Problem: Sometimes ones own adult child/children can bring on the heartache in life - more difficult to de-attach.

Things YOU eat, that other people think is weird.
by misanthropic inthis mornings events have got me thinking about things.
i love peanut butter, not the sweet kind but i like the old fashioned peanut butter, usually laura scudder's with no sugar or preservatives - it just tastes better imo.
i put it on everything including pancakes which are really good with peanut butter and maple syrup.

misanthropic,
'I don't think you can even get it in the US though or even order it online.'
You are right on. Vegemite contains folate and US forbids this product (folate) unless it's prescribed by a doctor.
Glad it has'nt happened over here.

Divorced, treated like crap from local Hall. Looking for new faith.
by magdalenefan ini am looking for a new belief.
i was going through a divorce my hall treated me like doo doo.
i was broke and a nervous breakdown, and they shunned me.

Magdalenefan welcome,
It is a lonely road after a divorce or going thru one and being at the KH doesn't help with all those cosy couples happy or unhappy. It tends to make the pain worse. If you find the new church helps you feel better go for it. Best thing is not to feel you have to turn up each time.
Take it easy on yourself until you feel stronger.

Nothing beats Vegemite.
Grilled slices of tasty cheese melted over toast with Vegemite. I hear that it's not to the taste of American people. Too strong and yeasty. Over here it's an everyday snack any time of day.
