An old friend was all nice until she found out I was DF'd!!!

by Lynnie in

well this is almost funny to me at this point.

i've been out since i was 19 and i'm now 65. i have uber jw cousins that of course now shun me big time.

funny how when my uber jw started declining in health all of a sudden they "needed" me and i had to help with her care blah blah after being shunned for years.. my mom passed away a couple of years ago and i sent out the death/memorial announcements to her friends far and near.

If only they'd realise, the only reason all this exists is so that the corporation can thrive. Keep 'em in and keep the money and assets going to the GB. Why? For the GB, so they can continue with their rock star status and lifestyle.

I wish karma existed. Sadly, I see no evidence of it.

this is happening in western australian indigenous communities .... quote: "some american-based preachers are distributing emails and videos warning that covid-19 vaccines are evil and the work of satan, and the notion has infected some christian communities in the west australian outback.. veteran aboriginal health worker kathy watson said people spreading false information about the covid-19 vaccination and its links to the devil were "mad".".

Is the FACT that no God/god ever communicates with humans evidence that no God/god exists?

by Disillusioned JW in

is the fact that no god/god ever communicates with us evidence that no god/god exists?

i think it is very strong evidence that no personal god/god exits, especially a benevolent god who wants humans to know him him/her/it, to obey him/her/it, and/or to love him/her/it.

since no god/god communicates to us (including those who sincerely want communication with the/a god/god), wouldn't it be sensible for those who pray to what they believe is the/a god/god to cease all efforts to communicate to a god/god?

I think this world and it's people have wasted too much time with this religion and god nonsense. It's a pity we as a world, can't just get on with life and each other.

Yes. I know it's never going to happen. People are flawed.

Jan - Choc éclairs are fully acceptable in the Church of Sweets and Desserts. Also, you can get some real nice sweets in the Polish deli near me. Diabetes in a box.

my friends Napoleon and DaVinci

You've had a sugar rush and are hallucinating. These guys are no longer with us. (Sorry, couldn't resist).

Anyway, (or 'anyways' with an 's' on the end if you're in America), I really am kind of leaving this society myself. I act at doing all the things 'normal' sheeple do but don't feel part of it.

This is why I cannot be part of a religion. I think I've done the internal 'alchemy' and declare it all bunkum.

I feel that religion is like politics is like sport. I caveat this with, 'this doesn't apply to everyone'.

There are those (not everyone, remember), that just want to belong to a tribe. It doesn't matter if that tribe is right or wrong, the belonging is what matters.

This is why we have the 'woke' tribe. Their religion is to play the victim and find victimhood so that they can virtue signal to each other.

Soccer and sports fans can feel part of a team. They say things like, 'we played well at this game'. It's a false inclusion of self into hive.

Politics is celebrities for the ugly.

You can see why I hate society and everything in it. It's all just us living in someone else's dream. Most things are designed by someone else. The furniture we sit on, the products we consume. We exist in other people's design.

Having said that, I quite like meringues filled with fresh cream.

It's bonkers, isn't it!!?!

I was commenting to an on the edge Jobo that my life isn't going where I wanted it to and they said, 'it went down hill when you left the organisation.'

Organis.....what?? I wonder if they knew how stupid and actually offensive that sounded?

Well, while these people choose to remain in their mental prisons, they will be supercilious, pious and sanctimonious bigots.

Little do they realise they are just fodder and money for the drunken GB. Their loss, really.
