one of the top songs of the 70's was "hotel california" by the eagles.
most people have no idea the song refers to the church of satan, which happens to be located in a converted hotel on california street.
on the inside of the album cover, looking down on the festivities, is anton lavey, the founder of the church of satan and author of the satanic bible!
Is this a new topic? The devil it is....

to many, coming out of the cult- griping wts's enslavement, mind control and bondage to freedom have not been an easy journey.
some have developed stress, depression, other committed sucide, had broken marriages, severed family and social relationship.
still, others had to contend for years, the scourge of emotional turmil on their lives.
I was definitely very ill after the shock of my Dfd...physically as well as emotionally...(and I would have grey hairs were it not for today's beauty technology)...It culminated with a small cancer and then radiotherapy...once that was over I seem to come out at the end of it with such a fresh rejuvenated view of life. A resolve to make my personal happiness more important than ever I'd done before.
What came with it was a humour which I didnt know I possessed...suddenly there were all these one liners on my lips...so many things to giggle and laugh about. It was quite wonderful.
I worried it would stop but no, its continued. People say to me quite frequently now 'Ah you're so funny!' to my utter amazement????? For years I was accused of being far too serious....
So...every cloud ...?

almost all woman want to get married and have children.
if you are a faithful jw woman there is a good chance this will never happen.
70% of jw are woman and 30% are men.
"YES, there are GREAT girls within this organization that wait patiently"
I'm so glad you acknowledge this

in his new spirituality book, "the plans of our enemy have been revealed", stephen haastrup exposes satan's army and the myriad tactics he uses to influence people's lives.
an accomplished pastor at the redeemed christian church of god in temple, texas, haastrup looks closely at satan's strategies and then details the counter-tactics god wants christians to implement in the fight against wicked spirits, principalities of power and all other entities that fight against righteousness.. "the plans of our enemy have been revealed" discusses all aspects of life that affect churches and its faithful constituents.
haastrup addresses the subject of debt and god's teachings regarding debt.
Deja vu?

years ago, when america believed in religion, didn't worship satan, when they worked, and were not using drugs, the u.s. prospered.. now we forget where we came from.
perhaps when we are cast to gehenna, we will remember.. now i've heard some local sunday school teachers are teaching our children that jesus was a woman.
shame on teachers and also parents who allow their children such lies.
I think you give Satan and his lot too high a status Weeping...?
