  well i'm a day shy of having spent one week in new york - my first time.

  what a dazzlingly vibrant and noisy city - one that never sleeps.

  new yorkers rightly proclaim this metropolis as one of a kind.

  Spendy but lovely restaurant: Scarpetta 355 W 14th St.

  Grimaldi's in Brooklyn Heights (yes, you will see a ton of dubs, but trust me, it is worth the sacrifice). Great pizza--get there early and prepare to stand in line.

  Ninja New York is a fabulous food experience. Even if you just go for drinks, it is worth a trip to their bathrooms (featured on the Travel Channel).

  Shopping: Century 21 and of course Saks Fifth Avenue. If you are a make up junkie like I am, hit up Sephora.

  Wicked is an awesome musical to see while you are there.

  I am envious of your plans--hope you have a blast!

  Thanks for all your hard work Blondie. I only read your comments as I can't stomach "food at the proper time." Hope you are able to get relief from your pain-I will keep you in my thoughts.

  The ( empty ) CHAIR where god SITS aka: the teddy bear in the closet

  have you ever seen some lonely, pathetic soul sitting at a dinner table all by themselves clearly waiting on their date to arrive?

  they keep looking at their watch.

  the waiter comes back now and again to check on them and is sent away.. every time the door opens their head turns round expectantly and a faint lift of the eyebrows signals hope.. .

  Just put in a pledge for your project...sounds cool. My boyfriend is sci-fi fantasy writer and I try to support self-published writers when I can. Good luck (gasp!) on meeting your Kickstarter goal.

  Share the Craziest far out ideas/arguments you have heard about life in the "NEW SYSTEM"

  by BU2B in

  really the whole thing is ludicrious but it is hilarious and sad at the same time to see grown people arguing about weather there will be cars, planes, eat meat, what about fish, etc in a place as imaginary as oz, yet to them it is reality.. the teaching of a paradise earth was so illogical it really was the first thing that started me on the path to waking up.

  just the thought that someone could greet their beloved spouse who had died only to come to the realization that they could never be together again struck me as so cruel, i didnt want to live there even if it was all true.. i have heard jws say they think we might be able to fly, read minds since we will be able to use 100% and some seem to think life would be an endless vacation, with modern conveniences with no thought to all the processes and work that goes into something simple like a pencil.

  i love the article jwfacts has on the flaws of any theory or teaching of paradise earth.. what are some things you have heard discussed/argued in car groups, gatherings etc when you were in?.

  THE BLIND SPOT identifying the refuting target of Jehovah's Witnesses

  by Terry in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  12 years ago

  the life of a human being progresses toward maturity and peaks and then gradually atrophies into old age, inability, possibly debilitation and then death.. it is the same for all people unless they meet with an accident or misfortune along that continuum.. i propose that we measure and test the virtue of being a jehovah's witness by focusing on the blind spot of their religion.. .

  what is the blind spot?.

  the watchtower society is in major denial that the members of that religion will actually grow old and die.. as a consequence of this major blind spot the members are less likely to include provisions for that inevitability.. the active and committed jw spends a preponderance of their vital years serving the needs of the group and not for saving for old age.. once that outstanding performance lessens and fizzles into decrepitude--the society itself makes no provision for their senescence.. .

  Checklists for High-Control Groups/Cults

  checklist of characteristics.

  deception lies at the core of mind-manipulating and high-demand ("cultic") groups and programs.

  many members and supporters of these groups/movements are not fully aware of the extent to which they have been abused and exploited.
