  Speaking of Freeminds - they could use a little help

  by Lady Lee in

  2. friends

  like most webpages that provide support to us freeminds, a leader in providing information to ex-witnesses for years now, could use a little support.. i'm not asking for money (although i'm sure that randy, like simon, could always use some money to keep the site up).. write a review go to the http://www.freeminds.org/ website and scroll down.

  on the bottom of the right hand column there is a green box that says review of free minds.

  this group great nonprofits helps groups get government funding so they can continue the work they are doing.. if you have recieved help from free minds inc. please write a review for the website.

  first post here, thought i'd start off with a news article from today (i used to live in tpa area, btw).

  man accused of threatening religious workers.

  spring hill deputies say two jehovah witnesses' quest for spreading peace and religion was interrupted by a man who pointed a gun and cursed at them as they approached his home.rudolf hellmold, 52, was charged with aggravated assault after deputies say he pointed a small silver handgun at the two victims while they were going door-to-door, according to a hernando county sheriff's office report.. the report showed that one of the victims told deputies that as they approached the house at 1355 osowaw boulevard, hellmold stood at a window near the front door, displayed a gun and yelled, "you (expletive) jehovah witnesses get the (expletive) off my property!".

  His Side of the Story

  This is Harry's side of the story: He had been talking with us on multiple occasions prior to this event about the Jehovah Witness who have continually harassed him in the past. He's been thinking about pressing charges but did not get around to it. On the day in question, one day in the middle of the 2nd to last week in October, this is what happened. Harry was inside in home minding his own business. Francis (the cat) was sitting in the front living room window like normal when he got up and ran. Harry looked out the front window to see two females outside in his front yard. They were NOT on the sidewalk in front of his house as some have reported. (That would be interesting to see though, as there are NO sidewalks in the entire town!!!) He asked them who they were and what they wanted. They did not tell him who they were, only said that they wanted him to come outside so they could talk to him... (To me, I would find that VERY strange and immediately be on my guard considering the number of break in's and thefts in our area lately. My thinking would have been that there are other(s) hiding around the corner of the house or by the back door.) He told them no. He never went outside. He never even opened the door! He stayed in the middle of his living room talking to them through the open window. Repeatedly he told them to leave. They did not. Repeatedly he asked them who they were. The never told him. Repeatedly he asked them what they wanted. They never said anything more than for him to come outside so they could talk to him. When one of them reached into her handbag, he cured at them, yelled at them to get the f*#^ off his property and removed his handgun from the holster that he always wears. (Yes, he has a concealed carry permit.) They finally left. Harry waited around, on edge, for a few hours wondering if they were going to come back. After all was quiet for a few hours, he took an afternoon nap. He came stopped by that afternoon to say hi and tell us about his adventure. Early that evening, he stopped by his neighbors home where he found out that there were police walking around his house that afternoon (he believes it was while he was sleeping). If they knocked, they didn't do so loud enough for him to hear. Plus, they would have been able to see him right through his open blind-less windows sleeping. The next morning he got up early and went down to the police station and explained that he was there because there were police at his home the day before and what happened. He was told not to worry about it and they would be in touch if they needed anything from him. Fast forward a week. He stopped by to chat for a while, while he was out picking up his mail from the post office. He went home and was arrested shortly after. Florida DOES have a Castle Doctrine in place. His property is fenced with No Trespassing signs. He was still arrested for pulling out his gun while he was standing in the middle of his own living room by himself!!!

  I was at the Montreal convention age 10 in 1967 and heard 'the shot heard around the world" 1975 was EVERYTHING TO EVERYBODY from then on until about1978

  WHY 1978? Because we thought it was still coming and they did the 'how long did it take Adam to name the animals' addendum

  ALL FACTF**k all you lying Jehovah's Witnesses come lately LIARS who go online trolls say they were there when they weren't even born yet

  Churchill ordered UFO cover-up, don't pee in yer pants WAC

  just think how religious doctrine would change if we had irrefutable proof of aliens visiting earth.

  an even greater mental holocaust would occur if an alien's body was found.. now, 30 years ago i would not have thought too much of it, but the potential reality now is a tad frightening!.

  aside from many new jobs created for theologians on staff at major bible colleges, (i have candidates in mind!

  I am totally open-minded but have my healthy skepticism.

  I was also an A student Science nerd in school and love Sci fi so here goes my take.

  If alien beings were so advanced that they could navigate to earth from systems light years away ( so they would be able to break the cosmic speed limit of lightspeed OR be interdimensional ?)

  It is plausible that they would f**k up and crash do stupid prank enigmas like crop circles or fly around like drunks with fancy flashing lights or crash?

  What's up with them getting shot down with crude WW2 50 cal machine guns at Roswell.

  I would love to embrace real evidence?

  now, i know that the 2012 issue has been blown out of proportion.

  and i know all the reasons that believing in them are wrong.

  but has anyone else noticed a growth in this type of conversation?

  2012 is a 12 year cyclic peak sunspot plasma eject year which the worst in modern time was during the telegraph era the systems then got fried.

  If this happens again the satellites and many electronics are gone.WORST every power line transformer will be bustedand will take two years to replace no jobs no electricity no power at gas station pumps no food refrigeration at supermarkets in North America.This would be apocalyptic indeed and the sunspot cycles happen every 12 years.One little burp from the sun totally fried the crude hardened old fashioned telegraph system a mere 140 years ago.

  So if I predict *this end of the world* every twelve years some time eventually I will get it right on time.

  Like with Y2K year 2000 this apocalyptic 2012 date will come and go what is good about it is it will saturate the public on doomsayers and I think will erode the WT credibility is already starting to.

  Did The Witnesses Predict the United Nations in Advance?

  by TD in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it's been reported on this forum that bethel speakers at this summer's conventions are asserting that the establishment of the united nations in 1945 was predicted in advance by the witnesses.

  this is being presented as validation of the claim that the witnesses are god's one true organization directed by holy spirit.. .

  the basis for this claim originates with a public address entitled, peace - can it last given by n.h. knorr at the new world theocratic assembly, on september 20 of 1942. .
