  they are very good at massaging numbers, I really don't think that those numbers are always what they say

  I love the fact that the GB is becoming more visible. Why? Think micro expressions.

  micro expressions are involuntary facial expressions lasting for half a second or less.

  these facial expressions mirror a person's true emotions and so provide a window into a person's feelings in response to a statement or question.

  particular facial expressions correspond to particular emotions and the mappings are universal across cultures.

  that very split second when you say something to someone in which they do not agree is priceless

  What would a Father's Day commercial look like if it was made by JW's?

  a father's day commercial for bass pro came on and it got me thinking.

  it said, "remember when your dad took you camping and taught you how to fish?".

  so i started thinking about my childhood and what the commercial would be like for people like myself.. it would go something like this:.

  The resolution was actually passed!

  who would have thought that enough people would raise their hands when the resolution was put before the congregation tonight?

  based on the pledges that the publishers put on those little pieces of paper, the congregation is promising the wts that they will send $1,000/month to support the society's building funds.. there is a traditional monthly shortfall of about $100 with the basic monthly bills usually around $1,000.

  i didn't raise my hand.

  she may not realize it now, but this could be her ticket to freedom, before knowing about the hypocrissy in the Borg. there is always a silver lining to every dark cloud

  if so, how did you deal with it?

  do I get scared when there is a major storm, well no. if there was an F5 tornado heading my way, well yes. If a 9-11 event takes place, not really, I just realize that the Dubs will hop back on their bandwagons hyping it up to the "last days" nonsense.

  Are you complicit if you stay in?

  by mrhhome in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i am going to throw down the gaunlet.

  those who know the truth but stay in anyways are complicit in actions of the jehovah witness organization.

  while i am sympathetic to the very difficult choices that they have to make, their unwillingness to confront the jw enables the organization.. some of you may remember my story.

  it is just because of cognitive dissonce, or whatever it is, it is a great burden on the average dub mind to realize what the Borg is and to be forced to practise it or else perhaps lose all of your dub friends, family and perhaps even business partners.

  I dont think we should past judgement on people who post here for the first time

  just saying , my 2 cents worth .

  if they have an agenda it will be revealed in a short time , let them play it out .. however , some genuine first posters can be put off by somebody jumping the gun and attacking them .. please give the first posters time to get to know this site.. smiddy.

  true, give the first timers the benefit of the doubt, they maybe just confused about the Borg or something, maybe having gnawing doubts which are troubling them looking for help
