  JWs and Alternative Medicine.

  by easyreader1970 in

  two anti-doctor witnesses i am very familiar with are my mother-in-law and my used-to-be best friend's aunt.

  by alternative medicine i mean holistic healing, herbal treatments, etc.

  these people don't go to regular doctors but go to self-proclaimed specialists (i call them shamans) who tell them what foods and plants to eat that will make them all better.

  Alternative Medicine has been a part of JWs from the beginning. A good place to start your research is, http://www.quackwatch.org/, Stephen Barrett, M.D. has devoted his retirement years to exposing these frauds.

  Discovery likes to publicize the irresponsible. e.g. Jon & Kate Plus 8, Kids by the Dozen, The Woman With Half a Body, Autism X 6.

  Married my partner...

  we just got back from san francisco where we were married last week.

  maybe some day gay couples won't have to travel 1,000 miles to get married, and their commitment of love will be recognized by society.

  there will be no need to use code - my friend, my roommate - at the office, with neighbors, or with family when speaking about the person with whom you live your life.

  i know as a jw growing up, i would hear so much about how if you were of the"world" and came out of it...that you were like a dog returning to its vomit.

  the other day, i heard of a friend of mine that went back to the borg.

  actually over the past few months, i have heard of a few.

  Dealing with those in a cult will always surprise you. Those that you would think, never would go back, many times do. I still haven' t heard from my brother, the pain will lessen; but, it never goes away.

  labor day, i'm at the supermarket picking up some ribs and stuff cuz hubby wants to fire up the grill and i see some english peas which reminds me of the screamin peas my mother makes (so good you'll want to slap your mama a few times).

  i call my mother to get her recipe for the peas and my father picks up the phone.

  we exchange pleasantries during which my father asks how the kids are doing.

  Annoying trend in TV commercials...

  by Gregor in

  1. social
  2. current

  have you noticed how it seems that the tactic of making commercials deliberately annoying is becoming popular?

  i'm sure you can think of a commercial or two that quickly becomes like fingernails on a chalkboard.

  that is why they are produced and repeated over and over, they accomplish the purpose of getting your attention and causing you to remember them.

  I don't watch programs that have commercials. TV is for my entertainment, if I am not entertained I don't bother.
