We are free to love
by purplesofa inwhat i have noticed since pulling away from group thinking, mindsets, rules and superstitions, that i am open to a broader range of loving people.. i am not sure i can blame all this on the jw expericance.
as children we are taught from our tribe, (family and enviroment, church, school, extended family, neighborhood..........who to love and who not to love.
i used to believe as the witnesses taught, you have to "beat" the evil out of children.. have you ever watched a group of small children unattended?

NAME JUST ONE thing....ONE THING...revealed by God....
by Terry insomebody is always insisting they have an invisible and mysterious source of divine information and selling it like hotcakes and syrup.
but, why are you still buying?
when will you ever learn that this is a scam among many scams.

Thus begins an "oral history" or "legend". Yes, writing would certainly help the process, but the lack of writing doesn't make passing on of important information to successive generations impossible.
I agree openmind, humans have also used rituals to perpetuate new discoveries and to pass on info to successive generations.

re your rubbing sticks together to produce fire point
Striking/rubbing sticks together also produces noise and then creating fire could accidently have been discovered via that route?

Before trying to intentionally bring this dreaded thing into being, a compelling reason had to exist.
haven't read everyone's posts so forgive me if this has been mentioned.
The compelling could have been that fire transforms.

Perhaps you doctor could give you a letter saying you need time and space to sort out your emotions.

I think that maybe because of the fact that you are on 5 meds you could talk your way out the worst aspects of your situation.
Just tell them that your brain has been fuzzy - you found an online JW support group and you have been using them for support.
Be very shocked when they tell you we are all apostates. Say you were so full of your probs you didn't notice or stop to think because you were so overwhelmed. Cry if you can - do a king david - act mad.
