Ray Franz Tribute
by besty in
1. jw
2. friends
over at freeminds we didn't want this day to pass without some recognition of the life and death of ray franz.

in view of his stated wishes not to have a memorial or service we hoped for something that he would have liked for all of us to take a moment over.. .

we owe a note of thanks to v for his graphics work and atjeff for the obituary writing - i know neither of them need mentioned by me.. .

Invictus
out of the night that covers me, black as the pit from pole to pole
I think whatever Gods may be, for my unconquerable soul
In the fell clutch of circumstance, I have not winced or cried aloud
under the bludgeonings of chance, my head is bloody, but unboun
Beyond this place of wrath and tears, looms but the horror of the shade
and yet the menace of the years finds , and shall find, me unafraid
It matters not how straight the gate, how charged with punishments the scroll
I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul

People have alot of perceptions years ago my husband told a man at his job who was originally from Washington D.C. that he was a JW and the man seemed surprised and said "I thought all jws were black"

The Invention of Lying

i just watched this movie on video this weekend.

always meant to see it and just got around to it.

it was a brilliant movie, but not at all what i was expecting.. it's a story of a man who lives in a world where everyone says what is on their mind all the time, to the point of brutal honesty (no, i am not sleeping with you.").
nancy drew

That was a good movie! I like the part after he gets everyone to believe theres a hope after death their all excited and he trys to tone it down and then they get mad at the creator and they say "lets get him before he kills us all"

just curious, to those of you who have left the "truth", where has your spiritual journey lead you?

have you found another religion?

are you not really a religious person?

I also have been reading some books by Michael Newton and info on Edgar Cayce its interesting I don't know if its true I'm a little gun shy now after my 25 yr jw debacle I'll not be jumping on any bandwagons anytime soon. Collecting & analyzing and trying to keep upbeat living w/o any real framework is my life right now.

New Terminology
by SisoNoSiso in
1. jw
2. experiences
i've heard that "return visit" has been replaced with another term.

is this true?

if so, what is it?.
nancy drew

I think the new term is boomerang call you place the mags with the used to be householder now called the receiver and you exit as quickly as possible before the receiver tosses it at you hence the term boomerang. If you get away w/o being hit you can mark it on what is now referred to as your gluetrap and return for another what is now called a raid. This is all about detecting infiltration of what used to be apostates but is now referred to as carcasses
