For someone claiming to literally talk to an all-knowing all-seeing god, you are so far off from being right, that there's just no other way to say it than this:

Also - I should probably qualify my critique on high count posters- some of them are priceless with incredible amounts of quality content. I just find it mind-numbing to see the ones that repeat over and over the same defense of the same imaginary friends or throw out scripture after scripture with no evidence of the scriptures being relevant, much less from any supernatural god.
I also know many more who are awesome high posters, grounded in reality, and have great lives outside JWN and are way more balanced than myself with less addictive personalities.

TEC - you read way more into my post than I said - not one part of it was remotely directed at you. Sorry if you took it so. I dig your sweet-to-everyone style. I never question anyone's right to be here. I criticize myself most of all for the amount of time I even spend here.
Didn't completely realize you were not a JW at some point in your life. If I was making a subconscious point about anyone, it would have been ones like Chalam that seem to fall into the crazy-Christian-never-was-a-JW-but-likes-to-cherry-pick-the-bible and pounce on leaving JWs. I explained that I don't understand such ones desire to be here, but never questioned their right to be here.
Anyway do what you gotta do. Hope you don't lose your grip on reality though - cause AG may think she's the oracle - but that's a fantasy too.

This still going on?
Curtains - thanks for the props. Although, I don't think anyone seeing this thread takes it too seriously. The only serious thing about it is AG's delusions and her continued persistence to avoid getting professional help.
Using a sci-fi movie to help validate her hallucinations (which is exactly what she is doing whether she acknowledges it or not) speaks for itself. Not really much anyone can say to make that point more obvious than she did by starting the thread in the first place. I think deep inside her she knows it's a game - one that she keeps playing hoping that she'll find validation from different ones that keep her from getting professional help. In the end - she probably is harmless, other than not accepting reality. I was posting to fight off a bit of insomnia, and her's and TEC's replies worked better than valium.
# of posts don't matter to me - it's the content of them. If readers here think I need defending from somebody that thinks Bert and Ernie are real people, then I guess I'm the one that really needs help. While I've not read her several thousands of posts, (If I was that sleepless I really would take a valium) the few I have read are the same thing over and over. Eventually, people with real lives move on and see how pointless it is to talk with someone over the internet that has completely lost her grip on reality.
If I ever find myself with that many posts for that many years, I absolutely deserve to have my head checked. For me, being on here is about moving on from my identity as a JW. If I stay here as long as her, I'll never do that. As long as I'm here, I'll always be an ex-JW, or an ex-JW that likes to argue with the ex-JW crazy lady - neither of those are identities I want to embrace. But for now, it helps with the transition and I've made a few friends. I'll be honest, when I first saw some of Aguest's posts, I thought losing one's mind was was a real possibilty for those that left the org. It almost made me want to reconsider. But then I read a bit more and realized few if anyone takes her seriously.
So what's going to happen is that, like so many others have already done, eventually I'll find zero interest in joining her little game-threads. She'll keep posting, she'll never get the psychiatric care she needs, and others will come along and appease her by playing her same-old same-old game threads. It will be this distant memory, of a transition time after I left the JWs for good - and completely removed the JW identity from my life. It will just be this thing I used to do. I won't join some ex-mormon religious board or ex-scientology religion board either. I never was one and can't imagine what would be missing in my life to spend so much time at an internet disscussion forum for former members of a religion that I wasn't raised in nor did I marry into it nor did I every convert to as an adult.

Perhaps "contradict" was not the best word. But the quotes I presented apparently didn't resonate with AG's personal revelations - otherwise, why try to make some wierd twist on them to fit her viewpoint? But as lime says, the movie is 100% fantasy, just like her revelations - so you and AG are right. One fantasy can fit in with another, in any way that the hallucinator wants them to. Link them all up. Correlate them. Show their parallels. In the end, they are all just fantasy. Thank you Lime.
Oh and AG, I promise you dear sweet honey child (Anarchy to you), I am not offended by profanity. I really do love it when it's intertwined into modern-day Jesus-linked stories. I mean it, it adds a new kind of meaning of Jesus for me.
A Master over Christ,

No - I didn't miss the point at all - I added another quote from the same movie that made a point which totally contradicted the OP. Kind of like how that can be done all the time in the Bible. I thought this thread was about Matrix quotes. I added my favorites. The quotes were pretty obvious in how they could be applied to all religous beliefs - so much so that poor dear child AG felt the need to twist the quotes to match her dilusions in a way that makes no sense. Kind of like many personal revelationists do with the Bible. So as she kind of twisted things from there, I just rode with it. In the end though, it comes back to made up characters in her mind and the proper spelling of them, etc. etc. which in turn leads to anybody that sees these symptoms of her pretending hallucinations are real, giving her yet another not-so-subtle hint at her need to get real professional help. Sorry if the truth hurts.

Tammy, if someone was showing all the signs of a documented condition of cancer, and they didn't want to get professional help, or even a diagnosis to confirm or disconfirm, and not only that - but continued to say their symptoms were actually healthy, would the ones pointing out the obvious and hoping they get help really be haters?
What if it was a brain trauma that caused hallucinations? Everybody pointing out that such ones need serious help are haters???
Wow - some people really do live their real life in sci-fi movies.

Kids there really is a lesson here for everybody. The important thing to remember here is that science fiction makes some people's hallucinations seem more real. So if you are ever experiencing seemingly real-like projections that are based off your cultural religous background while questioning a traumatic cult's teachings - DO NOT, by any means, DO NOT seek out therapy for these hallucinations from a professional. Instead - watch sci-fi movies like The Matrix over and over. That is all you will need. Other choose to listen to Lou Reed while having a little acid - it's all pretty much the same result though.
