  Thanks for posting. I heard this same crap 45 years ago in 1974 right before the non eventful year of 1975 came and passed with no Armageddon. I was a teenager then and was told I wouldn't get married or have children in " this system of things " . Now I'm almost 60 with adult children and grandchildren.

  Time goes on, nothing changes. Just the players. And these JW players are just being indoctrinated through fear and WT leaders play on those fears and phobia's - keeping rank & file JW's scared to death, quite literally. It's a cruel, evil way to control people.

  But for 140 years now since 1879 WT Society and it's leaders have fostered fear, terror, manipulation, and control of millions of JW's to keep power, control, and financial purse strings of JW's tightly under their supervision. It's disgusting. Any JW's reading this, wake up and smell the coffee man. Go and live your life, don't waste it anymore.

  I've lived my life with freedom of mind since I was 43 or 44 now, and listen, the big bad dream is not true. You don't turn into bird food when you leave the Jehovah's Witness organization. Life gets better. Don't believe the lie you're being told as they tell you that - to keep control over you. Here's to freedom of mind. Peace out, Mr. Flipper

  Your wife is very courageous. Kudos to your wife for speaking out against the ridiculous teachings of the Bible in regards to it's cold, egotistical " God " . If more of us ex-JW's spoke out personally towards the crazy JW or Bible beliefs- perhaps more of us would be left alone and not be bothered by JW's coming to our doors.

  Any time we expose either the Bible or the JW belief system as faulty, it's amazing how quickly we get put on their " do not call " list. lol. JW's haven't knocked on my door now since 2012. Which being perfectly honest, is a relief and a blessing all by itself ! Nice job by your wife Zing ! Give her our best ! Peace out, Mr. Flipper

  youths in school have meltdowns anytime someone “offends” them.

  grownups at a dinner table flip out on each other over politics.

  drivers are ready to smash each other up if someone disrespects them on the road.

  No, just being honest with my observations about people in the public these last two years. People are much more stressed out when they feel abuse of power over them. Just calling a spade a spade. Peace out, Mr. Flipper

  " Youths in school have meltdowns anytime someone " offends " them. Grownups at a dinner table flip out on each other over politics. Drivers are ready to smash each other up if someone disrespects them on the road.

  Intelligent dialogue and well mannered conversations are disappearing. It's too bad.

  Yes, it IS too bad. Very sad. But this is what we as a nation get when the leader of America engages in disrespectful, ill mannered dialogues, diatribes, and " conversations " in the abusive manner that he does. Trump not only ENABLES the typical American citizen to behave this way towards others , he FOSTERS and PROMOTES verbal abuse, disrespect, and anger.

  And most citizens feel empowered to display the same attitudes that their leaders do . Their view is " oh well, if the president can be an asshole, I guess it gives me permission to be one also. " I guarantee you Minimus, that many people are influenced that way, at least with the climate of aggression and hate within America now.

  Until we have a leader who will show respect to our American allies across the world and respect to most American citizens- we will continue to see this pissed off attitude in people. Some people are like freaking robots on this planet. If they see someone in power abusing that power, they feel it gives them a license to do it as well. My 2 cents on your thread. Peace out, Mr. Flipper

  Flipper, is Trump guilty of election abuses involving the Russians ?

  Answer : The House of Representatives will determine that once they investigate the ENTIRE Mueller report. It's the Congress and House that determines if Trump's election abuses involved the Russians. Not William Barr's call or responsibility to determine that.

  Was he ( Trump ) in collusion with them ( Russians ) ?

  Answer : Once again, it's the House of Representatives call and Congress that will determine if Trump was in collusion with Russia. Not William Barr's call to make.

  Was Trump unfairly spied on ? No, he was not unfairly spied upon. The FBI had every legal right and followed strict protocol before raiding Cohen's office and all the other Trump lackey's who were involved in the investigation into whether Russia interfered with our American election. Peace out, Mr. Flipper

  This is not over. Not by a long shot. I downloaded the entire redacted report on my computer. William Barr is just a lackey for Trump, not a truly objective United States attorney general. In Trump's orbit , many of his lackey's are trying to hide and bury his obstruction of justice methods, including his attorneys.

  But if you read the report Don McGann REFUSED to do what Trump WANTED him to do. He REFUSED to fire Robert Mueller. So evidence in the Mueller report reveals that many times Trump attempted to squash this investigation. Don't take my word for it. Download and read the report for yourselves.

  The REAL report will include REAL information that you will NOT see on fake news channels like Fox news- who again, are protecting this president from being exposed as a criminal. The same president that attorney general Barr is trying to protect by NOT revealing the sordid details to media outlets.

  But no matter. The house of representatives WILL keep pursuing it now that the REAL Mueller report has been delivered. Those of you who desire to bury your heads in the sand regarding this president's obstruction of justice actions disclosed in the Mueller report- are just fooling yourselves. It's a case of escaping controlling leaders from one cult ( WT Society & Jehovah's Witnesses ) and being duped once again by the leader of another totalitarian cult ( cult of Trump ) .

  Throw any slings and arrows verbally that you want. Until the entire house of representatives investigation is over and the REAL Mueller report is brought down with force onto this administration, many 35 % of Trump supporters will continue to be victims of the Stockolm syndrome burying the facts of the Mueller report with their heads in the sand like ostriches. My 2 cents. Peace out, Mr. Flipper

  Do You Ever Have Dreams You’re Still a JW?

  last night i dreamt i was at a circuit assembly; i even had a walk-on speaking part early in the morning program.

  i spent the rest of the day “working” the event in a security detail.

  the dream lasted until the entire day’s program was over.

  HEY JP- How are you doing ? Oh yeah, I still occasionally have dreams that I'm in the JW cult meetings at times. And I haven't been to a meeting in almost 16 years . And like your dreams, I'm either a speaker, or I'm among the audience trying to convince JW's, especially my two JW daughters that the whole WT organization is bogus and they are all being lied to. I've even had dreams where I'm giving talks telling them there's no such thing as " everlasting life " , and that every human who has ever lived has died !

  So most all of the dreams I've had regarding JW stuff I'm there at the kingdom hall or assembly hall, but in all the dreams I am NOT a believer. I'm trying to enlighten or talk with these JW's about how they are being deceived. So I'm still an activist in my dreams exposing the cult, just inside their own buildings. Lol.

  Dreams are weird, but very helpful I've found. I've been logging my dreams in a journal since December of 2010. At present, I have 768 pages of dreams from over 8 years. I believe it's a healthy thing to pay attention to our subconscious messages. Take care, Peace out, Mr. Flipper

  Hey Punk ! Nice hearing from you ! Glad to see you're moving on from the monstrosity that is the WT Society. Me too. I post here occasionally , but very busy wrapped up with work and my musical endeavors as well ! Very happy to hear that you're still rockin' out as well my friend. Some may claim that guys like us are " too old to rock n roll " as Ian Anderson said , but we're definitely " too young to die " ! Right ? Hey man, we're as young as we feel. You seem to be in a really good place right now, I'm happy for you bro. Life is about living it to the full my friend. Cheers mate. Peace out, Mr. Flipper
