  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleep_paralysis

  It's quite normal, many people think that demons are attacking them, there is often auditory hallucinations, visual hallucinations, and physical hallucinations...

  I've experienced very scary sleep paralysis, I heard this deep loud voice (like that of a demon) it was shouting Jehovah in a very menacing tone, the very real, very scary sensation of large hands around my throat, and the feeling that i could not move or speak. it was absolutely terrifying, especially so since I had no idea that this was simply my brain doing this....I was only 19.

  Ke,

  omg,

  whoever wrote that is deeply brainwashed, every word that comes out of their head is all about meeting, meetings, meetings, and judgement, judgement, judgement!

  Junction guy,

  Great poem!!!

  very well written.

  That dub poem was just sickening to read......puke.

  Awakening...

  I was like a wave on an ocean
  tossed without direction
  thought it was my faith windswept
  it was my trust that was shaken

  realized that my doubts had reason
  logic was my only course
  yet wondered if i was lost forever
  to the loudness of their words

  their rules i did follow
  their pious gaze on me
  to be humble was what was preached
  but meekness i did not see

  they followed obediently
  like good sheep they be
  Jesus said be more like him
  i only saw hypocrisy

  where was this love
  that they so professed?
  where was the unity,
  the consistency?

  appease your fellow man,
  follow his rule,
  woman be silent,
  and give men their due

  put in your hours,
  put in your time,
  as long as we see numbers,
  you're doing fine

  be humble & sheeplike
  echoing in my head
  dimmed to a hush and
  I woke up instead

  Personality Type That Draws One To WTBTS

  by searching99 in

  2. bible

  i was thinking about this last night and after reading the previous topic about the gb believing or not it has me thinking again.

  i am continually amazed at how a "new" religion can cause ones to abandon all previous beliefs and they are never questioned again.

  i am third generation.

  You would be shocked if you knew the number of narcissicists in ''the truth''.

  These people are cold, unfeeling, always right, attention seeking, and completely dogmatic when it comes to doctrines. They see things in black and white. Right and wrong. No colour allowed.

  One narcissistic/sociopathic older sister said to me, ''so do you have a list of chores for your boys to do everyday?'' (they are under 6)

  I said, with a frozen smile on my face, ''Actually, they help me with a few odd jobs around the house when asked, but most of the time, I allow them to be children and to play. If I made them do chores all the time, they would see me as a task master instead of a loving mother''

  She says, oh, then promptly changed the subject. Her grown kids are all f*cked up because of the loveless way she raised them, with a heavy hand, no forgiveness, no affection, she even let her new born babies cry because she thought she would spoil them by holding them. That old woman is the one of the coldest, most heartless JW's I've ever met. Yet to her cong, shes a perfect witness. (the nice things they say about her service to jehovah is enough to make you hurl)

  I'm glad I dont have to see her, or her family anymore since I am being shunned and she's part of my in-laws family. One of her sons is in the loony bin, and her other son is a unfeeling walking talking borg drone. for which i cant blame him, he was never shown one ounce of love or affection ever.

  well, now that you are out of the organization, what do you do with the time you gained?

  let's see how much time we gained.. assuming you were a publisher you spend at least 2 hours in service 3 saturdays a month plus the service meeting and drive time to and from the kh, let's call that 10 hours a month.. 5 meetings a week plus "fellowshipping" before, after and drive time, let's call that another 40 hours a month.. then there was meeting prep.

  another 8 hours a month.

  I'd wanna be the fly on the wall if Jesus walked into NY headquaters, and gave the Governing Body, the LAWYERS, and the rest of the Writers, a scourging tongue lashing that would made his rebuke of the scribes&pharisees look like a bed time story.

  My husbands observation...

  by megsmomma in

  1. jw

  we were just discussing the whole thing about how only those jw's that live through the big a will be able to still be sexual beings and pro-create.

  he said that the society is useing our most natural desires to scare everyone into staying in the org and hoping, above all else to live through the big "a".

  and i was saying to him that if i still believed what they taught, i would kill him and my baby to save them.

  And I was saying to him that if I still believed what they taught, I would kill him and my baby to save them. And....I wouldn't have to be jealous of him getting re-married or having sex!! Haha!

  Do the JW's concider what they are taught AT ALL???

  megsmomma,

  the saddest thing is that some have thought those exact thoughts, and actually killed their family so that they could be ressurected

  thank god that the wacko psycho JW's....are few.

  Personally, the bikini qualifies for making the woman "stand out from the general public" and the badge would
  identify her as one who is "in the city for the purpose of attending a Christian convention."

  my thoughts exactly...lol
