I'm on board with OTWO but I'm also eating drinking and being merry. I call it "reasonable guiltless self indulgence"

Faith is somthing you don't have to have in life. Of course if you need to have faith, I'm sure you will find somthing to have faith in. At this point I don't need to have faith I may or may not in the future however if I do develop faith in somthing, it will be on my own terms.

Evil Spirits
by LizLA indoes anyone on this forum have knowledge about casting out demons or evil spirits?
there's at least two of them that have been harrasing me even before i was a jw.
i recently attended a deliverance church to find some help but it was apparent that the holy spirit was missing from that church.

Yes I also do exorcisms, if you would like to fly me in, put me up for 3 days in a quality local hotel, an give me a perdiem of 50.00 per day I would be glad to come in and get rid of all of your demons.
My motto is:
"Demon free is what I want to be"

jw news can report that victoria police have launched an investigation into the rape and molestation of a number of children within the traralgon congregation of jehovah's witnesses over the past two years.
according to initial reports,... the body of elders were strictly ordered by the watchtower bible and tract society of australia to cover-up the multiple rapes of a number of children within the traralgon congregation allegedly committed by a fellow member of the jehovah's witness religion.

I guess it was just a matter of time before all of this would come out so publicly and how fitting that it came out from down under.

today's watchtower
by mariemcg ini was at the meeting today, and 2 sisters answered up basicaly saying that the elders did nothing whilst these people were being persecuted within the congregation.. i knew of the one sister years ago that was there- she stopped going for a while because of this... my eyes are slowly being opened esp now with this paedophile/s in australia...

The other strange thing is i prayed to Jehovah asking to give me a sign weather or not i was entertaining Babylon the Great by going into the kingdom Hall... I'm so confused. .
What's to be confused about, it's a cult and cult thinking trumps love everytime. It's all talk, the elders have no time to devote to the people in the congregations they're too busy trying to put on a show of going out in field service, taking care of paper work for the cult leaders and meeting to either indoctrinate eachother or be indoctrinated by the society leutenents IE CO's and DO's.
They are also supposed to be taking care of their families and actual shepherding the flock falls down to the bottom of the list.
All religion is a snare and a racquet and the Jehovah's Witnesses are no different so, it is Babylon the Great.

Bill Maher’s new book, “The New New Rules: A funny look at how everybody but me has their head up their ass
This is a great book, laughs on every page. So t his is one of Bill’s new rules from April 30, 2010 about religious wackos
New Rule: Although America likes to think it’s number one, we have to admit we’re behind the developing world in at least one thing: Their religious wackos are a lot more wacko than ours. When South Park got threatened by Islamists incensed at their depiction of Mohammed, it served—or should serve—as a reminder to all of us that our culture isn’t just different than one that makes death threats to cartoonists. It’s better. Because when I make a joke about the Pope, he doesn’t send one of his Swiss Guards in their striped pantaloons to stick a pike in my ass. When I make a Jewish joke, rabbis may kvetch about it, but they don’t pull out a scimitar and threaten an adult circumcision.
It’s true: When it comes to scary-ass religions, extremist Muslims are like Godzilla, and we’re like Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret. Sarah Palin is an evil dingbat who thinks God opens doors, but she never tried to poison-gas a girls’ school—as the Taliban does in Afghanistan.
Think about the craziest religious wackos we have here in America. The Mormons. I’m kidding, that’s not a religion. No, take the “Christians” who bring their “God hates fags” signs to soldiers’ funerals. Now multiply that by infinity and give it an army—that’s the Taliban. I’ve been known to make fun of Christians, but I have the perspective to know they’re a lot more evolved than people who target girls for going to school. Why, the worst thing our priests ever do is smother children with kisses.
Even with the latest Catholic horror story, Muslims could teach Christians a clinic in how to be fucked up about sex. That’s because Muslims still take their religious leaders seriously, whereas we have the good sense to blow them off. Catholics, for example, don’t follow the Pope—in overwhelming numbers they divorce, have premarital sex, and masturbate. And unlike the Koran, no one here seriously considers following the Bible literally—guys don’t look over their fence on Sunday morning and see a neighbor mowing the lawn and think, “Working on Sunday? I really should kill him.”
Now, Christianity, of course, went through a period like that, where religion had too much influence—it was called the Dark Ages. For centuries, either you joined the Church or you were killed. Nowadays, when a Jehovah’s Witness comes to the door, you turn the garden hose on them.
Now, it should in fairness be noted that in speaking of Muslims, we realize that of course the vast majority are law-abiding, loving people who just want to be left alone to subjugate their women in peace. But civilized people don’t threaten one another. We sue one another. Threatening is some old-school desert shit, and I’m sorry, you can’t bring that to the big city. I’m very glad Obama is reaching out to the Muslim world, and I know Muslims living in America and Europe want their way of life to be assimilated more. But the Western world needs to make it clear some things about our culture are not negotiable and can’t change, and one of them is freedom of speech. Separation of church and state is another—not negotiable. Women are allowed to work here, and you can’t beat them—not negotiable. This is how we roll—and it’s why our system is better, and if you don’t get that, and you still want to kill someone over a stupid cartoon, please make it Garfield. —April 30, 2010 by Bill Maher
