Sorry but I don't believe in lucid dreaming. You cant be in control of a dream or it is not a real dream. Sounds like new age mumbo jumbo tbh.

If death is a natural occurrence in the human species, why are we born with the innate feeling to continue living indefinitely?
by Tenacious inthere are some people that do in fact want to die.
these people include the mentally unstable, emotionally imbalanced, and those suffering from ailments or diseases, just to name a few.. i've never met however, anyone, or heard of anyone, who is of sound mind, who just awoke one day and thought it would be an excellent day to die......naturally.. your thoughts?.

It seems absurd and inexplicable in many ways that evolution is responsible for our insanely complex minds and bodies to so rapidly and perfectly form inside the womb in only 9 months, we are then born and continue to grow for another 20 years, but soon thereafter start to deteriorate and die after only 75-90 years.
Its a paradox. An evolutionary contradiction of epic proportions when you think about it.
And no, I'm not a creationist, theist or deist.

Muslim Shopkeeper Murdered for Wishing Friends a Happy Easter on Twitter
by cofty inhorrible crime in glasgow on thursday evening when a well loved muslim shop keeper asad shah was stabbed to death by at least one other muslim man.
mohammad faisal, a family friend, said a bearded muslim wearing a long religious robe entered mr shah’s shop and spoke to him in his native language before stabbing him in the head with a kitchen knife.. mr shah had posted the twitter message ‘good friday and a very happy easter, especially to my beloved christian nation’.
residents of shawlands in glasgow say he was well respected and had been known to hand out christmas cards to neighbours despite being of a different faith.. hundreds have turned out in a vigil near the crime scene....

The murderer would be able to quote dozens of verses from the Koran to justify what he did. -

CLAM - 24th March 2016 (Video Vignette)
by Nicholaus Kopernicus invideo - "use insight when comforting others"this was a wt contrived video of a sister who was widowed a year ago, and turns to members of the boe after a meeting in the kingdom hall in a distraught emotional state accompanied by suicidal thoughts.
two members of the boe saw her in her own home later that day.she conveyed that she wanted her life back - that her heart had been ripped out.
the elder acknowledges that "you and dan had a wonderful relationship".

The video is the lowest of the low as a propaganda piece in training elders to callously focus a publishers mind, no matter what the suffering or harm, on loyalty to the organisation as the panacea.
Someone should get an expert on the subject to review it and state their opinion publicly, such as a senior mental health professional.
It's probably been released to discourage all the "wild thoughts" increasing numbers of JWs are having lately about wanting to quit their horrible religion and lifestyle, especially with the child abuse scandals and other rotten fruitage being exposed. The Society wants them to chant "I will reject wild thoughts about leaving. I am an integrity keeper."
It's truly OrwellIan.

New Light - Two Sticks in Ezekiel - July 2016 Watchtower
by Listener inezekiel 37:15-17 prophesies about two sticks being joined together to become 1. one stick represented the two tribe kingdom of judah and the other stick represented the 10 tribe of israel (ephraim).
the article explains how the coming together of these two sticks meant the reuniting of these tribes in 537 bce.the modern day fulfillment was previously taught to mean that the anointed had once again come together in unity in these last days.the july watchtower now explains that one stick, the stick of judah, represents the anointed and the other stick, the stick of ephraim, represents the other sheep.
they further explain that since 1919 god's people have gradually reunited to become one flock.they are now saying that the other sheep are represented by 10 tribes of israel.

The only stick that JWs need to wise up to is the one above their head with a carrot on the end.

Christians to a tee say God can't save starving and malnourished babies and toddlers or stop them dying in wars because that would be interfering in our free will; yet this same God answers these smug western, overweight, BMW driving Christians prayers and "blesses" them.
What a sick joke and pathetic contradiction.
I say f*ck such a contradictory and morally repugnant God.

JW Vs. Mormon program
by pixel ini will like people on this forum and lurkers to see the big different between jws and other religion.
following you will see the program from the upcoming distric/regional 2016 convention.
look at the topics that are going to be discussed.

Striking contrast.
Surprising and refreshing to see the Mormons allowing women to give podium talks at this event.
I listened to a few of the Mormon talks and the sincerity and quality of speaking absolutely eclipses the dry, script reading style of JW convention speakers.

The Modern Exodus: Perception or Reality?
by Hadriel ini'm completely new at this however just in my joining this forum and of course interacting with others i can't help but notice what appears to be a significant exodus from the organization.. for those of you that have long been in this game have you seen this before?
i'm really curious and we should refrain from the sensational, but is what we're seeing different than in years past?.
it sure seems like so so many are waking and leaving.

Last service years annual report indicated growth may be heading towards negative, but is it a blip, an aberration? The organization has experienced similar blips before and pulled through.
This service years annual report should be very telling. Come back in 9 months and we'll have a much better idea of whether what you're surmising could be right or not.
