  Good post OTWO - Humility is key. Once we realized all that we didn't know about the organization, religion, and God we were free.

  I got to informally witness at work today!

  co-worker (who doesn't know a lot about jws) wanted to know good questions to ask jws when they come to the door.. i told him to ask about the meaning of "the generation" or how to calculate 1914.. after explaining to him him the history of the generation changes and the current overlapping generation meaning today, he said "that's genius because they can just keep overlapping it when armageddon doesn't come.

  one generation passes the baton to the next".

  I have to have the option of sleeping when it's dark. I need to be out and about when there is full sunlight. Otherwise, I'm completely thrown out of whack. I only know a few people who thrive when working nights. I would try it out and see how you adjust. But leave the door open to come back on days.

  startfragment.

  after thinking things over i have realized that the time has now come for me to say goodbye to jwd.. some personal reminiscing about all of the people i have enjoyed talking with on jwd reminds me why it is time to go.

  simply speaking, most of my good friends are no longer here.

  I pick the sense of smell. It adds so much pleasure to living but I couldn't bear to lose the others. Maybe touch next. But that would get dangerous real fast. Then again as long as you can see and hear you'll figure your way around the world.

  I agree with Changeling. I know everyone is different but we just walked out and never went back. You can get sick trying to fade.

  Horrifying Demon Attack: My Experience

  by laverite in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  on a warm summer day when i was about 12 years old (early 1980s), i was home alone for a brief time (family had gone to the grocery store).

  i had always been terrified of the demons and was constantly worried about a possible demon attack.

  being born in, growing up a dub, the devil and his demons were always either on my mind or not too far from conscious thought.

  Demons and Their Children

  by Darth plaugeis in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  on the urban myth post someone mentioned a story how the demons hated jah's children in the truth, because jah killed the demons children during the flood.

  i have heard that story about the flood, and the nephilim, millions of times and never made a connection that god actually destroyed the fallen angel's offspring.

  the nephilim were always portrayed as monsters and evil, but who really knows.. interesting point.

  And remember that before the lion strikes he gets down really low to the ground, then lets out a loud roar so as to scatter the inexperienced from the more experienced ones in the group. This of course makes his target easier to isolate and conquer.
