Its been great....
by stuckinamovement init is funny how this site works.
people lurk, they join, they post, and then they fade away because they have healed enough to focus on other positive things.
that is pretty much where i am at.

Getting it off my chest.
by Tamasin inhi all, i have been a "lurker" here for some time and feel like i want to share my experience in the hope that it relieves me of dark thoughts i can't shake.
i was "brought into the truth" by a guy, he had to let me study with a girl of course but always had me ear marked to preach in bangladesh one day.
fyi this is a guy who was disfellwoshipped many times and once shaved his head and sent it to bethel apparently it's something to do with some form of repentance in the bible or something?

Welcome! You had a close call, but made a safe escape.
You summed up the Watchtower nicely yourself: "all I could think was the men who know the words but it's not in their hearts." I can think of no more succint way to describe what's wrong in that organization.

Some observations on Animal Farm by George Orwell
by WinstonSmith ini recently finished reading animal farm, written by george orwell.
as someone who has recently awoken to the truth about the truth, this book blew my mind.
the parallels with the watchtower society are quite astounding.

Four legs good, two legs bad!
The pigs teach the animals relexive demonization of outsiders, just like The Truthvs. Worldly.
I was so glad my kids were assigned to read Animal Farm for their English Lit classes! I hope they will soon realize what that story is about.

Please Forgive My Stupidity, How Do I Register To Vote?
by Sunflower Samurai indear brothers and sisters,.
who votes on this forum for president, local elections, i have never voted in my life.. .
i have served on jurys many times, no conscientious issues there, i know it is up to everyone to come to their own ideas, our "speaker" made me think, why can't i vote, or why should i not vote?

It varies by state (I assume you're in the USA, since you said "president"). Many states now have registration at the Motor Vehice office, where you get a driver's license. Often there wil be registration drives when the deadline approaches, with a table at the supermarket or shopping mall (usually sponsored by whichever political party is in the majority in that neighborhood). Be sure to find out if you must register in the same county you live in. As Blind_Of_Lies said, be sure to check with the county clerk or election office to learn the local rules, and to find where and when to register--as well where, when and how you can vote. Then follow through, get informed about the candidates and issues, and be sure to vote!

Solar Eclipse Tomorrow, May 20, 2012
by ohiocowboy infor anyone interested, tomorrow there will be an annular eclipse of the sun, which will be seen from china and japan to the middle of the united states.. below is a link to a site that shows an animated map of how the eclipse will appear in your neck of the woods.
just click on your state or country and go from there.. if you want any more info on this eclipse, you can do a google search.. here in the dfw area, the sun will be eclipsed about 90%, which should still provide a decent show.
those living on the east coast of the usa will not be able to see it though, due to the fact that the sun will already have set in that area..

I got a short look at the start (with proper solar viewing glasses). Unfortunately, the sun is gone behind some clouds so I won't see the peak eclipse at local sunset.

Personal Attacks
by Band on the Run inrecently, i showed a great deal of vulnerability by posting that severe pain had popped out again and my morphine pump needs some tinkering.
it seems i am attacked with some frequency for posting here but other frequent posters are not.
rather than discuss the merits of a subject, some people engage in personal attack.

BOTR, I fappreciate that you share your expertise with the law. Being able to explain it in layman's words, while dealing with chronic pain, is quite an accomplishment. I hope the adjustment to the pump works for you!
