  i only bring this to the board, because a friend of mine once said he felt sorry for the footballers who made so much money.

  that comment stayed with me, and over the years,the more i thought about that comment the more i agreed with him.. i admit the g.b destroy people's life's and are the sublimation of all that's good in people's life.

  there only excuse is a fantazy asylum they claim to believe in.

  Thank you for the photo " Zoos" my answer is:-

  The G.B are no longer my teachers. I no longer follow there instructions. ( I clarified my reasons for this in my previous post)

  But now the G.B are no longer " MY" teachers, I want to find beautiful thighs and not have there arse in my life. I want to fly higher, and higher. I don't want them to win by me being in pain.

  Maybe I am selfish, but I won't try to fool myself by thinking I am the man to bring the W.T down. Therefore I want to live and be happy. I will be there for friends and family trapped in the organisation, but the day to day hours which should be mine I have decided are mine.

  What I am trying to say is that my own ethical and moral viewpoint says I should fight the G.B. But It's a fight I realise I can't win. So I won't hate them, and I can't ignore them. I THINK THE WRONG WORDS I used in my O.P. were "FEEL SORRY" for them. But I do Pity" them because I would rather have no wife, no child, no passport. Infact I would choose NONEXISTENCE than be anything like them.

  Witness007 (Q) " He can't prove he was not involved....they have no evidence HE was involved. How can he be on death row now?

  The Rebel (A) Because the death penalty in America, is not only for people who have been convicted beyond doubt, REASONABLE doubt is enough"

  Well done Dr Phil for starting your new series a week early to highlight this case. Well done Richard Branson for taking out a Full Page spread in the Oaklahoma newspaper and taking the time to appear on T.V yesterday voicing your concern.

  This case has huge holes in it. Please read my earlier post today for clarification on that. I also find it discusting that in January Richard was 3 hours from the needle. Two weeks ago once again 3 hours from the needle. And yesterday 1 minute from the needle. Now it's all scheduled again for November 6th.

  In America 156 people have been exonerated from death role since 1975 ( Souce death penalty information centre)

  Did God create life? Did life have a beginning?

  by quincemyles in

  life is passed on from previously existing life.

  life can not be created but can be destroyed.

  this rule has never been broken.

  Spock to Kirk " it's life Jim, but not as we know it"

  As to the question " Did God create life? Did life have a beginning?

  A) Everything has a beginning a middle and an end.

  B) We may not realise what stage we are in?

  C) Maybe this life and not death is the end?

  We can presume there was some organic slime that created life, but maybe the slime was second. Maybe the beginning of all things was a Hunan brain the size of this globe which gradually dried up and in dying secreted the slime.( sourced from a book I once read)

  So to conclude in my opinion the ANSWER to your QUESTIONS dont exist yet. Some may disagree and say they have those answers? But until those ANSWERS exist with conclusive proof for " ME" it's a mystery.

  I am grateful for many questions that have been bought to my attention on this forum. I have concluded, the W.T has done a great deal of damage to more life's than I realised. It makes the little bit of suffering I have endured, seem less significant. I have also concluded that for " ME" too much thinking on two many philosophical subjects is shit.

  Why do I say that? Because I am more happy with the breeze on the lake, looking at an ant and simply being grateful I am alive than spending my life searching for answers on God.

  I very much appreciate the replys.

  I have learnt a lot about the G.B from this site. What I have learnt has made me realise, I can no longer be a fader, and i will be disfellowshipping myself. ( I realise for many that is not an option)

  I guess the point of my O.P is after disfellowshipping:-

  A) Should I then move on and lead an egotistical life offering only passive resistance to the W.T?

  OR.

  B) Should I continue to hate ( and what I have learnt on this site has created if not hatred then at least rage in side of me) Rage that I was deceived. Rage that these men know they are liers, and harlots of the worst kind, and are happy ruining people's life's.

  I am not sure what I will do, I am not even sure what I can do. But now I am on the outside looking in, I don't want to simply talk excited, think up fabulous ideas, and actually accomplish nothing.( Which is what I accomplished as a witness)

  Maybe I can change my neighbourhood, and with time awaken people in my former congregation. Maybe that would be a victory. However from a personal perspective I now honestly want to love life ( maybe that is selfish?) And to love life I simply can't waste it on hate. ( I appreciate it, if you have a different point of view)

  What are they dong to this man.

  Two weeks ago Richard was spared the needle 3 hours before his execution.

  Yesterday it was an incredible 1 minute before they put the needle in him.

  This is the 3rd time he has been hours from death this year.

  Putting a man through this phycological torture Is diabolical.

  The new execution date is set for November 6th.

  Two days before yesterday's planned execution he lost an appeal 2/3. ( so two judges were unsure of his guilt) Then hours before his execution yesterday the supreme court also turned down his appeal. At the final minute his execution was postponed on grounds of the drugs being used to put Richard to death.

  His first conviction was over turned because the judge described evidence as " very weak" and his legal representation incompetent. ( In England that would make him a free man) Richard then refused a plea deal in which he would be a free man today, was retriled and convicted again.This man is on death role with no physical evidence against him, but based on the testimony of the killer who needed to implicate someone so he could avoid the death sentence. The police also lost/ destroyed evidence relevant in this case.

  In America I56 people have been exonerated from death role since 1975. ( Source death penalty information centre)

  Ok Morpheus my new O.P is:-

  DO YOU WISH YOU COULD LOVE ALL THE PEOPLE?

  And my answer is YES, but with the G.B, DEFERRED UNTILL FURTHER NOTICE.

  But I still won't waste my life hating them, and I do feel sorry for them because they are not real men. They are pathetic and worthy only of pity.

  I get what you say about your personal zen Morpheus.

  My point is I guess, well I new a man who lost his mum, dad and sister through hatred. ( He was a holocaust survivor) He had pity and not hatred for those that were responsible. I loved that man, and I try not to hate.

  As to Punks point I can't just ignore the G.B, but I have tried not to hate them or many in the organisation. I am at pity at the moment.

  If I could re-word my O.P, I would write it differently.

  Ok my point of the O.P was, by resenting the G.B, the only person I am hurting is myself.

  Maybe I am selfish, but what good does it do me to fick, suit, and piss my life away hating the G.B.

  Why not just feel sorry for them and move on?

  I mean I can't just pretend they didn't exist. So I can either hate them or pity them?

  I am not wasting my life on hate I choose pity any day?

  But I also appreciate the comments that offer justified reasons why they hate the G.B.

  I am just talking about where I am in life.

  Wisdomfrombelow:-

  I agree and I am not saying you are wrong. But it seems to me the G.B are going through life with a crippled heart, and I am personally glad I am not them.

  So maybe my question should NOT be " DO" but " CAN" you feel pity the G.B?

  Is it possible to "PITY" these men who deliberately in my opinion spread lies and untruths? Or do you simply despise them?
