we had to stomach knocking.. why can't we get some media exposure on truth about the truth?.
.
Mainstream view on JWism is not very flattering . Most people see them as misguided simpletons who just don't get it.
The only ones I can think of would be Oprah or DR.phil
Perhaps if someone wrote an impassioned plea to either it would garner a responce.
dunno JWism has really only affected a section of society that most people just don't feel needs help.
"i don't want you to fix my problem ... i just want you to listen to me.".
i was told that more than once .... as a witness with "all the answers," were you really listening to people pouring their heart out to you?
or were you just thinking of the perfect, scriptural response?.
Even the much blamed creator just wants to be heard
Listening is the greatest gift you can give ,it validates the speaker like no words ever will
When you get down to it we all just want to be heard , so maybe returning the favor is really just showing how much love you have and that is always the best we can do , show love
i don't know what it is, but whenever i see a film with him in, i have to turn it off.
hate is a strong word to use, and i guess i don't hate the guy, i just find him so bloody annoying.
and i can't believe i just made a thread on celebreturds.
When I grow up I wanna grow tits just like will fareil
last may, i finally admitted to myself that i am an atheist.
to me, being an atheist means that i don't believe any of the silly nonsense that puny humans have come up with.
many of the religions of man were started during a time when mental illnesses went undiagnosed and misunderstood, a time when man couldn't explain why lightning struck the earth or why rain fell.
BTW only people have made claims on Gods behalf ,

A hint? Learn to be quiet inside and have no activity related to ones own self current in the mind , no selfish activity at all , only the desire to HEAR God or connect to god for the sole purpose of making the creator pleased ,
When you can stop being so much a part of this world God will give you the hint you desire
and the messiah testified that .
his god and father(creator) is the god and .
creation of god(he who is the only true god .
Creepy and wierd.

God isn't hiding from anyone ,we just look in all the wrong places,
God isn't an active part of our reality. and God isn't what you think because God can't be conceptualized , "God" can only be experienced.
following on from terry's thread about mind filters and being open minded....... i'm neo-pagan.
for a loose definition of my beliefs see here http://www.religioustolerance.org/neopaga1.htm.
but i'm willing to consider christian belief systems.. just recently i've been studying the jewish kabballah (qabalah).
Hmmm I don't exactly qualify as a christian although I do agree completely with the message Jesus gave .The book of thomas is quite intresting.
I've studied Buhdda, Hinduism , Muslims ,Jews .Christianity even a couple of wierd Christian sects Nihlism , Elitism, Humanism , Bull jism and just about any kind of ISM imaginable and have come to a conclusion, ,,,,
They are like the sides of a box that has instuctions on how to open it written on all sides and no side by itself can tell you how to get it open
They all point to the same thing but in incomplete ways , Kabbalah isn't actually a religion allthough it is in a lot of hebrew texts . It is more of a method to understand the nature of a human Just as Buhddism is not really a religion as it is also a method to understanding our Humaness
i felt it was good to start a thread on this as methamphetamine addiction has become one of the most abused drugs in our society.
unfortunately, from what i've heard is it is relatively cheap to make , not as expensive as other drugs, and highly addictive once a person is " hooked" they have an extremely hard time getting off it.
crank or speed as it is called makes people highly aggressive, mean spirited, and can make them violent.
I used to do a little but the little wouldn't do so the little got more and more
It's just that easy,one bad choice followed by another, soon it's a physical dependency , it's not fun anymore, it just takes and takes until you are all taken, empty inside looking out while the world goes on , no one wants me or loves me , I'm dead inside ,the only thing that numbs the pain is more of what is killing me.
That is the most dark and hopeless place, the living death that is the existence of an addict.
Been one . been a liar and thief . done unspeakable things that took parts of my soul and burned them in front of me,
Only one thing can save an addict LOVE
It's easy to hate what you don't understand , but it's hard to love all that pain away, it's really hard to forgive yourself and love yourself.
I'm recovering and things do get normal, better than normal if you learn the lesson that addiction is.
To all the fallen , may the Creator show you mercy and save you from yourself
