I used to live in a small town, which seemed to have a robust budget for the police and fire departments. I was driving down the road and came a cross three cop cars, two fire trucks and a paramedic. As I drove by I looked to see what horrible thing had happened to cause this kind of response. It was one drunk pedestrian, who was badly failing the sobriety test.

How are you spreading TTATT?

just wondering if anyone has used any underhanded ways of spreading ttatt.

i mean, has anyone made up business cards or tracts and spread them far and wide?

i would love to engage in this "alternative witnessing".
LisaRose

I have asked repeatedly to be put on the do not call list, but they still keep knocking at my door, so I will give them a good reverse witness when then do. Despite the fact that I am open about the fact that I am apostate, they will usually stay and listen to me. I have also been approached in my car while eating lunch, they got a good talking to also.

take five minutes to learn something new today.... here is a very brief introduction to epigenetics with an interesting practical example.. ....

Cancer, diabetes, etc. I doubt it though, that the medical field is going to invest the time and money this field deserves. There is no money in taking care of people. Modern medicine does not cure root causes, it manages symptoms.
Actually they are very close to a drug that will harness you immune system to fight cancer. Currently your body does not recognize cancer cells as being foreign, the cancer cells fool your immune system into thinking they are just normal cells. The drug binds to the protein on the cancers cells, which then makes them visible to your immune system.

Lizzie doesn't like most people food, she loves her some meow mix, but will eat ice cream and guacamole.

I find genetics fascinating. It's not always the gene, but how that gene is expressed.
I have a cat like the one in the video. She is a tortishell dilute with white. Both torties and calicos have one black color gene and one orange color gene, and as they said, are almost always female. In Lizzie's case she also carries the dilute gene, which distributes the color more along the hair shaft, making the color lighter, grey and peach instead of orange and black. She has one white spotting gene. White is not a color gene, like black or orange, but something that overlays the color, no color equals white. If she had two white spotting genes, she would have more white and the colored patches would be larger, making her a calico. You can see where two two colors switched, often it is down the spine, and down the front of her face. She has what they call a split face. Some split face cats have two different color eyes, it is somehow connected to the coat color.
She is also the smartest cat I have ever known. She does a number of tricks, likes to steal things and is always trying to think of ways to get me. She lays in wait under the bed and grabs my ankles, and sneaks up behind me while I am sitting on the couch and smacks my head. She will patiently wait for me to get in bed and run up the moment the covers start to come dow, reach her paws in and goose me, then run off like a bat out of hell. I'd like to know what gene causes that.

i've finally got round to joining the site (after over 2 years lurking!

i was born into jws, pioneered for 10 years (met my husband at pioneer school).

had health issues that saw me catapulted away from 'the centre of the cong' and wow what a different place that was!
LisaRose

Welcome to the forum! I know what it is like to have health problems and have everyone think you are just weak. There was no love or empathy in the congregations, so sad.
Good for you for a successful escape.

i've been fading for about 9 months.

the elders know exactly why.

i received a phone call a couple of days ago.
LisaRose

I am soooo proud of you. It's very hard to stand up to elders as you did, you have been taught to obey the organization and the elders as if they are God, to be able to speak truth to power in this situation is remarkable.
Maybe you planted a seed, but if not you gave them every chance to see the lies they are defending. If a person chooses to close their eyes to an uncomfortable reality there is nothing you can do for them.

Sister attendants not able to give directions to a brother..Misogyny

at our recent rc i was advised by a sister who was an attendant that they have been advised not to be able to give brothers directions as this should be dealt with by the brothers.

apparently at the pre-convention attendants meeting, the sisters were asked to stay behind.

this was when they were given the news that the brothers should deal with brothers.

Sparrowdown you always crack me up, but you are especially funny today.
