That is my new big word that I learned this week in Drama class. Verisimilitude...or "Appearance Of Truth." Of course I thought of the society right away.

Heard at a JW family get-together...
by Justice-One inmy wife and i (and of course not our two sons because they are df'ed) got invited over to my mother and father-in-laws place for dinner last night.
at first, i wasn't going to go, and then i thought....well this might be fun.
btw, i knew that pretty much all of the family was going to be there, including two elders...my father in law, and my brother in law...both brain dead "true believers.

Yeah, I was a little surprised there was no follow up. I was ready with the "well, I guess I can join the YMCA now...if I just want to use the pool."

My wife and I (and of course not our two sons because they are DF'ed) got invited over to my Mother and Father-In-Laws place for dinner last night. At first, I wasn't going to go, and then I thought....well this might be fun. So I went. BTW, I knew that pretty much all of the family was going to be there, including two Elders...my Father in law, and my brother in law...both brain dead "true believers." Since I knew that they were not going to give me the time of day, and that I would have to be content with just eating and being ignored, I took along some reading material. Of course it had to be something that would piss them off, so I took "Patriots, Surviving The Coming Collapse." So as the evening progressed, I just sat in the corner and read...keeping an ear out to hear all the nonsense they talk about. Then I heard the subject of the UN come up, and they were talking about "the beast." So I spoke up....I said "you know I hate the UN too. They are completely useless, as all they do is talk. Personally I think the US should never have joined the UN....but I heard they and "others" did it because they have a GREAT library." ....Silence....I looked up and the two Elders were just staring at me. I went back to reading my book.

Hmmm… is the “light getting brighter” or is it flickering?
Lets look at one example…
Sodomites getting resurrected: (maybe depending on the time you lived)
"The men of Sodom will be resurrected." (Watchtower 7/1879, p. 8).
"The men of Sodom will not be resurrected." (WT, 6/1/1952, 338).
"The men of Sodom will be resurrected." (WT, 8/1/1965, p. 479).
"The men of Sodom will not be resurrected." (WT, 6/1/1988, p.,31).
The men of Sodom. will be resurrected." (You Can Live 'Forever on Paradise-On Earth early editions,p.179).
"Men of Sodom will not be resurrected." (You Can Live 'Forever on Paradise-On Earth- later editions, p. 179).
"The men of Sodom will be resurrected." (Insight On The Scriptures, Vol. p. 985).
"The men of Sodom will -not, be resurrected." (Revelation Its Grand Climax At Hand, p. 273).Now I can understand someone changing their view to be more accurate to correct themselves, but this example is absurd. Is the light getting brighter or do we have an example of it being turned on and off. (it's flickering). And this is just ONE example.

Why be a weenie? If you did it, own up to it. If you don't feel bad about it, then playing "legal" games is STUPID. If you do feel bad about it, then repent. Why be a two-face?
Another one who just does not get it. - Or understand the power this cult has over peoples lives and families.

Personally, IF I ever submitted to one of these Kangaroo courts, I would just repeat "I have no clear recollection of that" over and over. - Hey, it worked for Oliver North.

Weird dream...or maybe not so weird...
by Justice-One inlast night i had a really strange dream.
i was at the hall (that in itself was strange) and jim jones was there (funny thing...he looked just like powers boothe) getting the kool-aid ready.
there were "brothers" at the doors holding ak-47's, and all the doors were locked.

If I had to intepret this dream it would probably go like this....These people are going to go down one way or another. (Jim Jones and Kool-Aid part.) Most will accept it, because not doing so would be "appostate." (Brother coming in late.) There is going to be very little or nothing I can do to prevent this from happening. (I could not stop the brother from going in, and I could not find a phone to call the cops.)
But hey....I GOT OUT. (BTW, I remember having to pretend to be a good littte "Jim Joneser" to do it.)
