I was trying to catch a football and somehow landed on my car and crashed in the front window. There was a little boy in the back seat that was about 8 years old. I could see myself. I was still myself. I was now a ghost. People who believed me could see and touch me. So, I went to my sister and told her I had died and there was life after death because here I was.

So, we both went home to tell my parents. We drove up a hill to get there and the car couldn't make it all the way up because it was snowing. So, we got out to walk the rest of the way. We both lost our shoe and sock on the right foot and just the shoe on the left foot. We made it home and my parents both saw me. I told them I had died. My mother touched my arm and could actually feel me. My father said he wouldn't come near me and wouldn't talk to me. I told them to go look at the car crash to prove I was dead but they couldn't because of the snow.

I said I was tired so I went to bed. The next day my mom went to the car crash and saw that I was dead but she couldn't understand how she could see me. My dad was mad at me. I knew he could understand that I was dead but I couldn't understand why he wouldn't talk to me. He was so mad he couldn't even mourn my death and stayed away from me.

Really weird, huh? What do you think it means?

I think so Leaving... He seems to be researching it logically verses trying to jump through hoops to make the borg right somehow...

this was interesting and may just possibly affect mother watchtower.. ada.

Cantleave - I don't think they can deny one exists because I believe it's already known in a Court of CA that there is one. I believe they almost had to release it before in 2007 but then something happened where they didn't have to release it. This is just from memory so feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

I've been trying to answer this for hours now... Anywho, does 2 infants under the age of 6 months count? It better. It's one of the hardest jobs I know of... But, I love it at the same time.

Trying To Make JW's Seem "Normal", One Cult Member At a Time

by AllTimeJeff in

it hasn't been till the last couple of months that i have even given a passing thought to jw apologists.

as welcome as they are to post their opinions, i am struck by something that i recognize in myself and others as i reflect on my jw past.. basically, there comes a certain point, where if you are going to stay a jw and you are of a bit more "liberal" mindset, that you will try to change the focus a bit.. i recall this happened to me.

as a ms, i was very gung ho for most jw dogma and ways of dealing with people.

Very well said alltimejeff. Btw, I did the math and you are only a couple of years older then me. That's so weird that we are basically the same age. You sound so much more mature then me, lol.
