Do you eat foods labeled "low-fat"?
by compound complex ingreetings, health-conscious friends:.
i had a wonderful cup of peet's coffee today at a friend's house, but had only low-fat half-and-half to add.. just isn't the same .
.. what do you eat and drink?.
-
VampireDCLXV
Oh, hell no! Besides my having an astronimically high metabolism, I'm just plain suspicious of what they replace the fat with: you gotta replace it with SOMETHING.

Well, you've spoken up a couple of months too late, Loubelle: THIS amorous vampire might be tied up for the forseeable future.
OTHERWISE I would've welcomed you to my little corner of the world in western Canada; namely, British Columbia... It's just better here.

Gdaughter of Westboro defects from Cult
by purplesofa inhttp://www.addictinginfo.org/2013/02/06/granddaughter-of-westboro-baptist-church-founder-defects-from-hate-cult-to-speak-out-video/.
a cult has a way of ensnaring its members with promises of spiritual freedom, the seductions of power and charisma, and in some cases, just the sheer influence gained by tapping into the fears, biases and bigotry of potential recruits.
scientology has used those many tools in attracting followers, as has every cult from jim jones with his peoples temple mass suicide tragedy in jonestown, guyana; david koresh and the branch davidians of waco notoriety, warren jeffs of the fundamentalist church of jesus christ of the latter-day saints and its polygamous sexual abuses; right up to the westboro baptist church and their pervasive and media-savvy mission statement of hate and bigotry.. while its one thing for adults to be ensnared, willingly or otherwise, its another for the children of cult members to be held captive simply for being unfortunate enough to be raised by a cult member.

To forsake family to pursue the truth is a bitter pill to swallow... Whoops! Don't JWs say that?

SAD news about OOMPA......
by redredrose inour friend, oompa, has passed away.
just recieved the news a couple of hours ago, and have almost no details.
it happened today or yesterday, he took his own life.

I know that I haven't been here for quite a while but I thought that I'd poke my head in here to pay some respects at the very least...
No, we weren't really friends... we never exchanged words here (or elsewhere) that I can recall... but oompa was such a big presence here... it feels like I knew him somehow, anyway...
The death of anyone you know about can be quite a shock to the system in itself... it's even worse when that death is self inflicted... even worse still when the WT$ is at the root of it all!
The WT$ has got a lot of blood on their hands. The rank and file can be held to account for only so much... it's really the leadership that's to blame... the higher up the chain of command, the more responsibility there is and the more bloodguilt there is. I'm truly sorry that a terrible motorcycle accident (and the following consequences and happenings surrounding it) pushed this tormented soul to the edge... but all we have to do is look towards a certain ivory tower in New York to see where the blame ultimately lies.
It's truly unfortunate, however, that some tormented souls just cannot be saved from themselves...

What the devil is capable of
by StopTheTears inthrough the years i and many of my companions have seen quite a few things done by devils that are not specifically mentioned in the.
bible including things similar to this:.
i received an im from some unknown source telling me that a crystal ball was going to be delivered in our church building.

VampireDCLXV
Since we've been talking about marbles, I'd think it would be safe to say that StopTheTears has lost a few of hers...

A Born ins challenge to develop a "post cult" personality.
by stuckinamovement ina born ins challenge to develop a post cult personality.. mentally leaving the organization can be traumatic for a number of reasons.
one of the biggest challenges for born-ins in finding their pre cult personality is that our entire personalities are based on the religion.
there is no such thing as a pre cult personality for us.

As long as there are loved ones of ours that still remain inside the JW religion, it's something that will stay with us as long as any of them are still alive. It isnt something any of us can completely leave behind. Some fragments of the old ways and old thinking will stay with us always...
