The Truth is Within You
by cassuk11 inhumankind has for centuries sought truth outside of themselves.
the soupmix of teaching ,ideas,philosophies and religious dogma had failed to see that the truth is within and if we seek ,knock and ask we find it within us.
the truth is that we are all light and pure love and that is buried deep within alll the layers upon layers which are being stripped away to reveal the true inner self .

You have no need of anyone to teach you anything
by cassuk11 inthe truth is within you and god himself teaches us all the truth.we cannot find it in a building or religion.
the fusion between humankind and god was sealed by messiah in the 1st century.
until many recognise the kingdom within there will always be divsions,confusion, etc etc.

Take your fingers out of your ears and stop singing la la la for a minute and instead try doing some proper research matey and take off your "I'm special" glasses for once.
No one here likes being preached at and all your posts so far are exactly that. The fact that you cant type for toffee makes it even less likely anyone will take you seriously.
Plenty of people come thru here spouting their brand of crazy, so dont think you stand out as any different, you don't. We've seen it all before many many times and it is always the same old BS in the end.
You think you KNOW something, well you dont know jack. It requires humility to understand this fact and humility to admit it to yourself and go away and do the real hard work of undoing all the BS you have allowed yourself to be sucked into.
The hard work is worth the effort as nothing beats the very real freedom you gain.

So not once does the letter tell the elders to call the authorities (police etc) about abuse even if they are legally mandated to do so, instead they are to call the legal Dept and get advice.
I'm thinking this wont be looked on kindly by the authorities....

Learn to say no, it's a very useful life skill.
No explanation is needed and if pressed for one you dont need to give it.
It's a great way to take control of your life.

The Rants of a Dumbass Elder Still Serving
by TTATTelder inok in the effort of full disclosure, i have had a couple of drinks and recently experienced a circuit assembly and a bad experience with a co.. i don't know where to effing begin.
first of all the circuit assembly was a joke.
half the assembly was about pioneering and selling your soul to be a no-pay salesman for the borg.

It's a cult, ....just walk away head held high and save yourself a whole lot of wasted years and stress.
Almost everyone on here wishes they got out sooner, they saw the signs years or decades before but ignored or suppressed them.

Misquote in the Creation Book
by ILoveTTATT inmy dad came into the jw's because someone studied the "creation" book with him.
it pains me deeply that he sent me an e-mail recently saying that to keep the peace with my mom, he will stop communicating with me as much as possible.
i should communicate with him only if i have an emergency.. it upsets me to no end, but i cannot do anything or much about it.

If you reject the existence of the soul then you are an Animist?
by Seraphim23 inthe classic debate between those who believe that consciousness is merely the result of the operation of the brain, and those who believe that it is apart from the brain, like the idea of a soul or the classic dualistic distinction between mind and body, is a well-known one.. however the thought has occurred that when people try to convince me that the soul cannot be real; soul in the sense of consciousness being a separate thing to the operation of the brain, then really the materialistic non spiritual view is in fact a rehash of animism, strange as that might sound.. animism is the idea that soul, spirit, consciousness, or whatever it might be called, exists in plants, animals, things, objects, places or basically in everything and anything in the material world.
the view of some is that very primitive cultures had this wide category of spiritual belief, which eventually evolved into the all the religions, faiths and spiritualties of today.
some of the faiths of modern times are not defined as animistic because these draw a distinction between soul and body or in modern parlance, consciousness and brain.. so in very ancient times, at the dawn of human spiritual belief, the sun, for example, rising and setting was seen not so much as being caused by the proverbial spaghetti monster but as being the proverbial spaghetti monster.

The title of this thread should have been:
If you accept the existence of the soul then you are an utter fool.
