Autism

by ProdigalSon in

the subject has come up in my reincarnation thread and i think its worthy of its own.. when i saw the movie "rain man", what amazed me the most about what raymond was able to do (i.e., counting the number of matches in a matchbox after a glance, or memorizing all the names and numbers in a large phone book in a matter of minutes) was that it proves that a human mind is capable of performing the functions of a computer and more.

why then, do we not a: all have these supercomputer abilities, and b., why is an autistic person lacking in other areas such as social skills?

my second son was born in 1992 with a lipoma on his tail bone which was also wrapped around his spinal cord.

My son has aspergers syndrome,sensory processing disorder and ADD.And possibly fibromyalgia and bipolar/childhood depression(although this could be a result of the abuse he suffered in the KH)

My nephew has aspergers,sensory processing disorder ADD and dyspraxia and fibromyalgia.

I suffer from fibromyalgia.I think the gene that causes autism could be the same gene that causes fibro.

Alot of people in our family have certain traits if aspergers but not significant enough to be diagnosed.

I strongly think it is genetic.with outside factors(vaccines,environmental issues etc) which makes it more severe in some cases.There is positive to it also,my son is extremely intelligent and has an iq in the 130's,top of his school and he is six.It breaks my heart to see him around other kids his age as he cannot relate to them,or get on with them on any level.

There was a comment made on the reincarnation thread saying video games and tv should be considered regarding autism.I agree that these dont help ANY children if used too often and for too long,But to think these things can cause autism is in my opinion silly!

ex-elders, present elders, and sexual abuse survivors or their families

by Lady Lee in

help needed on this thread.

lady lee- who are you, and what's your story?.

madjw thinks the wts' policy is sufficient to deal wtih cases of sexual abuse of children.

TheTruthAboutTheTruth

Wrong way/Titus the wts policy on protecting children is CRAP

My son told the po in my congregation what was happening to him months before i found out...what did he do?NOTHING he done his own little investigations,never reported it to the police,or even me!!

He will be in court soon to pay for what he did!!

Child's Nightmares and Memories Prove Reincarnation

by ProdigalSon in

matthew 17:10 however, the disciples put the question to him: "why, then, do the scribes say that eli jah must come first?

" 11 in reply he said: "eli jah, indeed, is coming and will restore all things.

12 however, i say to you that eli jah has already come and they did not recognize him but did with him the things they wanted.

TheTruthAboutTheTruth

Maybe you shouldn't have been watching telly or playing video games as a child,im sure you would have been fine then,wouldnt have been on the autistic spectrum then.!

I seriously think the autism question needs investigation about, not chemicals, but television watching and video games. This sort of research is not going to be popular with corporations.

Metraton this was a very ignorant statement which is completely untrue.Autism spectrum disorders are identifiable from a very young age,even from 6 months old.Well before a child could play computer games or watch telly.Maybe you should research topics before you state such statements like this.My boy has aspergers and these kind of statements really make my blood boil.It is very likely a genetic disorder.NOTHING to do with television or video games!!

Best JW Joke

by Simon Morley in

time for some comic relief, what is the best jw joke you heard?

here is a start, not the best but a start:.

q: what is the difference between a hells angel and jw?.

TheTruthAboutTheTruth

Next time a Jehovah Witness comes knocking on your door, tell them you are busy at the moment and ask them if they will give you their home phone number so you can call them back.
When they explain that they cannot give out their home number, you say,
"I guess you don't want anyone bothering you at home, right?"
They will agree and you say, "Now you know how I feel! Now f*ck off".

Why are there no Jehovah's witnesses in heaven?

Because God and Saint Peter are behind the gates saying, "Sssshhhhhh! pretend we are not in!!"

How many Jehovah's Witnesses does it take to change a light bulb?

Three: one to change the bulb and turn it on, the other two b*stards to knock on your door and ask if you've seen the light...

I swear to god, if those Jehovah's from down the road knock on my door one more time, they're off the Christmas card list.

have you ever had some one knock on your door and try to sell you something that, doesn't work, you never need and they try to convice you its better than anywhere else

i hate jehovahs witnesses

Have your prayers EVER been answered?

by nicolaou in

have you ever prayed for something and actually gotten what you asked for?

specific examples would be nice to hear about.. .

nic'.

TheTruthAboutTheTruth

I prayed for God to help me know the truth when i was having doubts about the watchtower,then i found this site and others and learned alot.I am skeptical as to wheter it had anything to do with my prays,id like to believe it did.It is more likely to have been a coincidence.

i know a lot of women, not just younger women, that have tats.

i wouldn't have one but that's because i don't need the pain..

I have a chinese symbol on my foot that means truth,I got it just after leaving the jws and finding at the real truth,it symbolises my freedom from the cult,and reminds me how lucky i am to have got myself and my children out before i got baptised.It is quite small and easly covered up,especially where im from,it is raining mostly so my feet are covered!But it is pretty during the summer,not tacky which some can be.
