materialists continue to dismiss the notion of immortality of soul, calling it as bull-shit.
however film industry is least bothered about such ridicule as they know that most people are fascinated by the idea that we have a soul that survives the physical death (of the body).
latest in the series is the movie (if i stay, warner bros. pictures, directed by r j cutler, released last friday) that revolves around the heroine having an out of the body experience.

There - a bit of context for you.
i've made a few posts here already so i thought i'd introduce myself.
i'm an ex-jw from cheltenham pittville (uk) congregation.
i've been free and clear for a few years now so i'm through the anger phase and in the happily getting on with my life phase.
Welcome to JWN.
on coftys thread about his former pastor trying to re-convert him, which is very long but a tremendous discussion of the problem of evil, a poster, sunny23, wrote :.
" having been 7 months since i first posted on the first page of this topic i have just read those posts and acknowledged a huge transfromation in myself for the better."..
i was only thinking the other day how, as i discovered this site and ttatt, i really changed as a person in so many ways, and i think mainly for the better.. i have been "born again" !!.
Haven't changed a bit.....................

"a 9-year-old girl learning to fire a submachine gun accidentally killed her instructor at a shooting range when the weapon recoiled over her shoulder, according to arizona authorities.
another reason to go against those arguing that young children should be taught how to use guns.
Why does anyone need to an Uzi for self defence? I cannot understand this ridiculous obsession with guns.
i've been absent from meetings recently because i'm having serious life challenges that make me really not want to have to deal with all of the people and the sitting.
i had made an attempt to, "simplify my life" that rather than being blessed was meant with unemployment.
lol.. anyway, i finally got tired of all the phone calls checking up on me and sent a message to someone explaining that i just wanted to be left alone (an elder).
As has been said many times on here before.......
It's a cult!
i'm a 17 year old from scotland.
can i just say this site is absolutely brilliant.
finally found people with open minds and free thought that doesn't just consist of "well the wt told me this so it must be right".. my story is that i'm just like any other child of a jw...brought up into a life of indoctrination where "the world's" thinking is automatically wrong.. that is until i was 14 - a light turned on in my head.
Congratulations on your escape. A bright future awaits
how many elders do you know that have produced bad.
fruits, their kids???.
i was thinking and three prominent elders one a co.. i realize that young people leave when they become adults, but.
My old CoBE, has had three of of his four kids go off the rails, his wife had an affair with another brother in the congregation and his son is who has a total hypocrite.
He knows who I am on here, I hope he reads my posts. I also hope he dies horribly and painfully, a perfect candidate to contract Ebola.
1- pray to god (whomever you may imagine him to be) asking for understanding.
2- study the background about the bible (from non-religious sources) to see where it came from.
3- discard (or at least set aside) chuyrch claims and dogma.. 4- read it, looking up archaeological/historical sources about the places and peoples referred to.
Doc house used to post here as The Mad JW. His MO hasn't changed. Ignore his trolling.
1) take meds for your megalomania and delusions of grandeur.. .
suggestions welcome.. .

I am working hard on cultivating the fruitage of the A-hole spirit.
i wonder about that and have researched it in prior times but i see so many that are falling apart.
thoughts?.
Define "Ideal".
Even nugget and I have our occasional disagreements
