  this is an email i received from my brother in law:.

  after discussing with our family and several friends about the popular movie avatar, and the prevalence of "avatars" on the internet, we thought that other friends might be interested in what we found in our family worship research, tell us what you think:.

  merriam-websterdictionary - avatar: the incarnation of a hindu deity (as vishnu).

  While You Were A JW Did You Feel Controlled?

  the governing body constantly tries to impose its will on jehovah's witnesses.

  they really don't want you to do anything but society approved things.

  everything is "bad".. we can see this quite clearly at this point.

  nightmares after leaving

  by myownlife in

  2. experiences

  hello everyone, i have been reading the different topics and haven't seen this discussed..... i was raised in the 'truth' and decided when i was 19 this was not for me...but unfortunately it took years after that to finally make the clean break.

  during that time and up until about a year ago, i was having strange and disturbing nightmares..it finally came to a head when i dreamed that i cussed out the elders in the congregation i had left.,..woke up in a sweat but felt great!

  has anyone else experienced this?

  before i washed the dishes this morning.............. .

  i noticed a couple of well dressed men in dark suits passing by my window.

  2. experiences

  looking back there were quite a few families that did the "oh we're moving" fade.

  they would move to a rural area.

  or a state or two away.
