song of solomon 3:7,8 has solomon so terrified of the "night" that he has 60 valient men with swords drawn circle his bed each night.
the book has shown to be a reworked fertility goddess poem in other threads.
the passage here seems to be betraying the superstition of night demons/monsters that roamed around slaying folks in their sleep.
afraid of the dark?
(i think i saw that story of solomon with "60 valiant men" with drawn swords around his bed on the playboy channel one night )
i remember one of my childhood friends was found dead and the police said he committed suicide.
i just could not believe it because my friend was a "devout" jw almost franatical about it.
now years later since i have seen both sides of the coin i am beginning to wonder if my friend did indeed kill himself.
my niece has attempted suicide twice. once with pills and once by cutting into her wrists. the first time she was in "the truth" but just going through the motions. the second time was when she was disfellowshipped. now she is reinstated and on 7 different medications and says all is wonderful and nothing bothers her anymore. wheee....

hide the children.
(and i don't think elders are as naïve as they want us to think they are.)
it's been over a year now since my dad died.
i feel sad about it a lot because i don't believe i will never see him again.
i realised today that being raised a dub has closed my eyes to different views on death.. what do some of you believe happens after death??
your soul goes on this wonderful cosmic journey, in which you get to see things only God can:
...then you are reborn on Earth (reincarnated). p.s. no one taught me this i just believe it. i'm gonna become a Buddhist, i think.
i'm sorry about your dad
Even when they are abusive and insensitive towards their offspring, children still desire whatever vestige of love and approval they can get from their parents, and will often be obedient just to receive attention and care.
o0o, so true...
along with some other companies, this jw that runs lifeline, david kelsey, had his picture in the newspaper.
he was accepting $500 from a charity that provides money at this time of year, the heading was, "the season of goodwill".
you hypocritical pig.
my niece hangs christmas lights in her bedroom...i didn't ask, but she volunteered that since she doesn't buy them for a christmas tree she's not doing anything wrong - she just thinks they're pretty. her mom buys turkeys at thanksgiving and marshmallow peeps at easter and candy pumpkins at halloween. and that's ok 'cause they're "not celebrating what they represent". hmm, so if someone decides to hang a swastika in their house, or a pentagram on their front door because they appreciate the artistic/graphic design of them, they can just turn a blind eye to what those images represent?
riiiight. (said in dr. evil's voice) can you spell h-y-p-o-c-r-i-t-e ?
the post about jehovah sending panties through the mail is funny.
it reminds me of all the stories at the assemblies and conventions of zealous witnesses rewarded for their dedication.
i never believed any of them.
Oh, I got another one. Two years ago at the convention they told a long, drawn-out, dramatic story about a guy who was offered a job making $100,000 a yeay but he'd have to miss book study to take it. He decided to refuse the job so he could go to book study. Anyway, at the end of the story the speaker said "and guess where the job was? The world trade centre." (Audible gasps from the crowd.) What a load of crap. I KNOW it's not true, how horrible to use a tragedy like that just to make up a bullshit story to scare people into coming to meetings.
o...m....g.... i feel queasy. so did they name names, location, etc.??!!! these people are NUTS!!!
hi everyone..............it's been yonks!!
we are doing fine, just really busy living life.. well, last saturday i was out at the markets with a friend (thank goodness).
when i got home mr bliss informed me that a servant brought the co around to our place for a 'friendly' visit.
PS: I'm going to a Xmas work party this week. An active dub is going to be there, should be funny seeing as though she is the reason the party name has changed from Xmas party to...........'end of year' party. A few colleagues have asked me if it was because of me and I tell them, "you got to be joking, I'm not a JW anymore" So people know that she is going, knowing it is a Xmas party but just called something else to ease her conscience. I think she is going to feel a bit uneasy knowing I know!!!!!! Like I care. I plan to have a ball
be sure to wear the most christmasy, unwitnessy outfit you can find...
