i haven't been on jwd for the last few days as my good friend had her mum die suddenly and i have been spending time just being there for my friend.. i was shocked and saddened to hear that trevor and linda was a sham.
it's sometimes hard not to become cynical with life and not trust anyone when this sort of thing happens.. i have made a big decision and i hope that i don't live to regret it.
i have posted that i have been trying to "fade" as my son and his family are jw's and i don't want to lose them because of being shunned.
Good job Maddie Being who you are is the only truth we have so don't feel as if you are wrong, that has nothing to do with it.
Our own truth , the truth within each of us is a blessing and our birthright, and so often others convince us to forsake what we are and replace the truth our creator put in us with a delusion and suffering
Untill we know the depth of our own soul we know knothing and can not know anything. Fly free and may your spirit grow to know the real truth.
do you think satan would be ruler if jesus earthly kingdom arrived on earth in 1914?.
what are the wtbts thinking?.
If I believed in satan I would say he's in charge at the watchtower, and just about any position of power is filled by him as well, but since I don't , I will just state the obvious , that self deluded maniacs are in control of the world.
not to be mean but why should i care that you have 3,000 posts?
this yet again proves how useless even making stats like this public are.
it just gives people ammo to say, "i have 25,000 posts so obviously i am more vested in this board then you".
Does it seem like a desirable thing to have many posts?
Perhaps someone takes pleasure in the sense of community the number of posts relates to them ?
Seems rather small minded to be concerned about any "rank" if all we are here for is to support each other and spread the light of consiousness around
for years i studied the awake and watchtower literature and at times wondered to myself why [ esp in the awake] do they keep quoting the un so much when they are saying the un is satans tool.i got more curious when i read an awake main article which was practically dedicated to the un, all about the uns projects,etc.then it all made sense when i discovered that the tower had had a realtionship of some sort with the un.when i spoke to the elders they seemed non the wiser but looked into it and came back with info saying it was just a library card for the info section.which i was suspicous of,especially when the elder told me this year that " the un thing is old news anyway so why bring that up".. does anyone have any further info on this or documents?
i had heard that american congregations had been sent letters from bethel explaining this, is that true?
because as far as i know british congregations didnt recieve any letters or anything about this.. jacethespace..
The religion that calls itself Jehovahs Whitness is a tool for misinformation about the very thing they profess to hold dear,
They are symptomatic of humanities madness of delusion and are just echoing the prediliction of a man to get the truth completely 180 degrees off from reallity. To find fault wilth them is simple and akin to making a retarded person cry or feel frightened , not hard at all,
The real task is getting an understanding of the true nature of ones own self and finding that truth inherint in each of us that our creator allows us to experience if we seek it
Finding the answer to " What am I ?" is the most satisfying and fulfilling thing one can do. That experience allows true understanding of our origin and relationship with God to blossom and take root in a meaningfull way.

It's much easier to open a mind with a gentle nudge than to strike with force
guys and gals, here we go !
i started a serious thred tonight, now it's time to relax and have some fun!
i think we have all been a bit stressed what with trevor gate and all, so it's friday night, let's loosen up a bit ?
I only look like John Wayne Gacy when I put on the red lipstck ,,,,,

Faith may be positive in nature , But it is undieniable that DOGMA of any kind whatsoever is a vile a reprehensible thing that should be abolished and forgoten , be it Religious DOGMA , Evolutionist DOGMA , or humanist DOGMA,
BTW dogma is code for B.S.
The truth of a man is in his soul , it is part of the life that we all share with all other life , Absolute views are absolutly worthless.

That was quite possibly the longest rant I have ever read , Very interesting view on mankind. I'm quite certain you should write for a living.
The origin of a man or what he believes his origin to be, is indeed the deciding factor on what path he choses in life. I believe we all share a common source and therefore should be mindfull and considerate of each other , not cause needs to arise and not add to suffering.
I see people being drawn into a polairity as well , along the traditional lines of positive and negative. All we can do as individuals is make ourself the conduit of our source be it God or otherwise.
I like the guys in white hats myself .
this is in no way meant to be an accusation.
it's just a question.
it could also be just human nature in general, or a personality type that was attracted to this religion in the first place.. it seems that several problems on this board just won't die a peaceful death.
Letting go is just symtomatic with being human , it's the single largest hinderence to healing ,it's a close cousin to selfishness and arrogance, I suffer from it less than I used to ,but still ,some days are better than others.
why does hollywood use special effects for demonized movies if demons are supposed to be real?
that has bothered me for years.
i did ask this question in a tiny post on another thread but thought this question needed some considering.
If you don't obey the boogeyman will get you
