  I appreciate "our" free speech.

  i had given serious consideration too leaving the board.

  i rationalised my views on " muslims" we're not held by the majority so i should leave.

  but this would have been wrong thinking, instead i should appreciate the platform i was given to debate with free speech.

  Free Speech YES

  I love it when people get spiced up and say whatever they please after all those JW years of manicured conversation it feels good.

  I've learned something important since I left and that is how easy it is to be manipulated by your own desires so now I'm more careful and I ask myself what do I really know about a subject and do I have the facts. You can find credentialed people lined up on either side of an issue and you have to do the work and think before you take a stand. I was a fool when I became a witness because I had an inner desire for a utopia for all humankind but now I realize the logistics of that desire and the free speech problem that arises with that kind of a dream.

  on my way home from work today, i saw the modern day pioneers having a grand old time, relaxing in the sun.

  two sprawled on one bench and the other two talking up a storm, with their iced cappuccino, just enjoying the day.

  the two carts were a number of feet away.

  Don't they realize that god is saying "don't make me throw more people on the tarmac" . They sit in the sun sipping on their drinks and how many will god have to kill while they sit and enjoy the day.

  MY brain exploded a while back and is in freefall. It's a weird place for sure I'm just rumageing about wondering what do I really know for sure. I'm just spinning around and there's lots of room in this place because nobody seems to be here.

  No matter our beliefs, we can all benefit from some simple wisdom about "karma." 12 Laws of Karma That Will Change Your Life

  by kpop in

  2. friends

  whether atheist, such as myself, agnostic or a strong believer in a god, i'd like to share something with you all about karma.

  it relates back to my post about marcus aurelius and a quote often accredited to him on the best way to live.

  i think this will benefit those who are just waking up from the jw cult and wondering, what's next?.

  Since I left the organization and was finally able to clarify my fantasy about humans living in peace and harmony on this planet. I've done alot of thinking about humanity and it would be nice if kindness and goodness was the order of the day but sadly it is not. The planet is full of all kinds of humans with their own capabilities and agendas.

  I used to believe or at least I tried to believe that there was a loving god who had our best interests at heart and we could trust him and paradise was coming. I was in my own dreamworld but now I see the bible as a book about a monster who threatens us with destruction and tells us we deserve it. The world is crazy and maybe being kind works sometimes but not always. Sometimes it's like feeding cookies to a large bear when you run out your in trouble. I'm disappointed for sure but it is what it is. You have to find something interesting to do with your life while avoiding dangerous pitfalls until you run out of time which we all will despite having once thought we could live forever or maybe not even die. That was kind of fun for a while but it wasn't true.

  she had been held captive for two days by locals in borneo but has been rescued by a team from the bos foundation - an indonesian conservation organisation, apparently.

  she is displaying wild behaviours so can be released back into the wild at some stage.. and here she is .... .

  she kinda reminds me of someone .... .
