Some time this year I told some witnesses I couldn't go out to eat because I was low on gas and money. One of them said "where do you go?" like she expected me not to have a social life and things to do.

Stephen Hawkings is a nutter for believing in a fantasy
by Mad Dawg instephen hawkings from here:.
in the grand design we explain why, according to quantum theory, the cosmos does not have just a single existence, or history, but rather that every possible history of the universe exists simultaneously.
we question the conventional concept of reality, posing instead a "model-dependent" theory of reality.

1) When the earth was proposed to be round, people thought it was the craziest thing ever.
2) When earth was shown not to be the center of gravity in the solar system people refused believe it.
New discoveries always leave people baffled. Can we automatically assume that this is 100% impossible? No. Is there proof either way? No. Since quantum physics is pretty new stuff, humans don't have a lot of knowledge on the subject. Just because something sounds completely different than what we're used to doesn't mean we should call it crazy. Until more is discovered about Hawking's ideas, we can't say whether it's plausible or not. Science is always discovering things we humans never thought possible, so we will just have to wait.

A long time ago I was told I shouldn't watch Spongebob because it's violent. The same person also told me the macarana dance used to be a prostitute dance so I shouldn't do it.

Another thing I heard out in service a while back: Some how creation came up, then the big bang, and an elder in the car group said, "You know, the society doesn't say Jehovah couldn't have created the universe by using the big bang."
This made me a bit mad. I always remembered being taught that the big bang was some complete nonsense and now I'm told this? I'm sick of religion changing their views when science proves them wrong.

Just thought of some more.
I remember out in service someone was telling demon stories and one went along the lines of somebody out in service got someone at the door who was involved with demons and when he handed the magazines to the man everything in his house started to shake and when he took the magazines back it stopped. I think he ended up giving him the magazines and leaving quick or something?
Another one was about his son. He said that his son was having weird things happen to him like *gasp* he dropped his Bible when he walked in his house. So he ended up burning something he recently bought and the "strange things" stopped.

Some of mine:
A few years ago I gave an experience on stage about how I came into the truth and why since it was a struggle I suppose. Anyway, after the meeting was over, someone (who ALWAYS makes me mad, and other people) told me it was a good experience and immediately after that told me I should make sure the next time I got on stage to button my suit jacket...
Another time the same person told me I couldn't wear a pair of pants to the meeting because I had a small snag in them!
I'll post more as I think of them. Feel free to post any story you'd like! I especially love the stories about smurfs, demon possessed furniture, and other crazy beliefs. They always crack me up.

I don't have any close family in the truth. A few but they will still talk to me.

I never bring my phone to the KH or any of their houses in case they would look in my contacts.
This is no way to live. Luckily I'll be going to college next year and I plan to disassociate myself before that. Hopefully sooner than later.
Side question: If I'm not baptized do I still need to submit a diss letter? I assume so since I've been a publisher for years.
