Being a born in, the first naughty thing my friend and I did was get a bunch of toilet paper, wet it, wad it up and throw it up to the ladies room ..[opps sister's] ceiling . It stuck to the ugly accoustic ceiling tiles.

During clean the Hall day. Guess who had to clean it off? It did leave a ruined spot though.

It was her fault. I swear, I never would have thought of it. smile

We went on to do other naughty things. But other kids did not think god is going to kill you for it.

First indisputable link between aluminum and alzheimer's

elevated brain aluminium, early onset alzheimer's disease in an individual occupationally exposed to aluminiumdate:february 12, 2014 source:keele university summary:research has shown for the first time that an individual who was exposed to aluminum at work and died of alzheimers disease had high levels of aluminum in the brain.

while aluminum is a known neurotoxin and occupational exposure to aluminum has been implicated in neurological disease, including alzheimers disease, this finding is believed to be the first record of a direct link between alzheimers disease and elevated brain aluminum following occupational exposure to the metal.

Or cover your lasagna with aluminum foil. Or any acidic food. You will get holes in the foil.

No worries. Go ahead, trust your goverment.

I read this warning in the late 70's, and not from JW lit.

I was/am a Hippy . so no matter and no aluminum.

Legacy of being brought up a JW: Weird hang-ups

by Really?! in

jw
friends

do you have any weird hang ups that you think are related to your history?

public speaking i hate hate hate any form of public speaking.

job interviews, presentations (for job interviews or in the work environment), telephone interviews etc.

I find it interesting what stays with us.

My closet friend got DFed , moved in with her soon to be husband (as her B mom kicked her out).

Sneaking off to go hang with her , I saw her smoking and that really bothered me. I cried. Crazy!

Next time I visited, we did E together and walked along the beach. Talking to the stars. One of my best memories. (we were young)

I love reading Vampire stories, The Walking Dead is a fav. Frankinsten, Sageing. BUt, I will never watch The Exorcist. Or that garbage they pass off on The History Channel about haunted crap. No Demo sh.t for me. Or lights are on for weeks.

Introverts just dont do to well with talks and such. But they do well with other types of people interaction. ( Thank You Darth Fader for that great topic, this helped)

If I see a Mag , I spit on 'em. But I have new Grey Bible, ( not the one made in China, but the US one) still wraped up.

I dont like labels, esp. from shrinks. But looking into complex PTSD helped.

Sometimes we can be a little confused. It just takes time.

take care

Doctor affirms the fact that JW religion was a massive strain on my life

by confusedandalone in

it has been over a year since i offically stopped caring about and going to jw meetings.

prioor to this time i had tons of responsibility that drained every once of time i had.

like any father i had family matters to attend to.

eva luna

confusedandalone,

That's wonderful. Thanks for sharing.

Fading can be the worst stress and stress makes you sick.

[makes me want to get out my paper and pen, or crayons and Butcher paper, tie it on to a rock and a look for a certain window :-)]

Critique of Mar 2014 Awake on Creation by Alan Feuerbacher

by jwfacts in

alan feuerbacher has written a tremendous critique of the march 2014 awake!, which contains a grossly dishonest discussion on creation.

the pdf file can be downloaded from awake_march_2014_creation_critique.pdf.

it highlights watchtower use of poor and contradictory reasoning..

eva luna

Alan's essays changed my thinking. A wonderfull mind.

Thank You jwfacts.

has anyone else seen the local congregation doing the usual field service push before the memorial?

i think its strange that we (nor our neighbors) havent seen them in the neighborhood yet.

only 2 weeks away and no territory blast?

i was checking some old threads and messages and came across people's messages and threads that have passed on ((dansk)) ((oompa)) two guys that i liked and shared some laughs / thoughts / hopes / encouraging words with.

pulled at my heart strings.. you're still remembered.

Dear LouBelle,

I remember Dansk in particular. Doing the candle light vigils for him.

It is all so sad.

You must be a very tender hearted Lady.

I will remember them both too.
