is it worth queing two weeks for a phone?
i mean why que two weeks for something we already have a phone?.
.
I just bought a LG-G3 Smart Phone with the Pad included from AT&T
for $212, which I thought was a good deal. However, the instructions
included are not good.
Anybody that can give me information on navigating this type of technology
would be appreciated.
in another thread, one of our members made a comment that caught my attention.. i have been trying to put my finger on a practice amongst the org and witnesses in general.... as soon as someone does something well, accomplishes something, or excels at something, the atmosphere effectiveley 'kicks them in the gut' to bring them down.. anything that makes a person grow or develop is blatently discouraged and therefore self esteem is squashed!.
the constant message telling a witness to be 'humble' is designed to suck any sense of growth or 'betterment' out of a person..... therefore this leaves the average witness to be a blubbering mess of insecurity and instability completely dependant on the organization...kind of like a 'battered-wife' scenario.... .
I agree, and it has always been that way to "beat down" good people that way.

The following saying is appropriate for those exposed to JW doctrines as born-ins trying now to live their
life freely:
The PAST is history, the FUTURE is a mystery, but TODAY is a GIFT, that is why it is called the PRESENT.

FHN......So great to see pictures of your family living and doing normal things that bring happy and
tearful memories of loved ones..........Paul

memories when I grew up during that wonderful time, thanks much.

and within a month, he has been seeing a 69 year old woman who lived upstairs from him.
.
the wife has been sick for a year and she passed away in october.. now, the 80 year old man is like a teenager with this woman, making out in public places with this woman and introducing her to family and friends as his new girlfriend that he "loves".. the father's family thinks this is weird and are concerned about it.. any thoughts?
Oh, LisaRose, you said "Bonus points if he can still drive at night", I hope you didn't mean a car.....HA HA.
i read steve hassan's book and he mentioned about buzz words or triggers that call out the cult personality of a victim of mind controlling cult.
when you were in, what triggered you?.
The Society says..........blah, blah,
i'm in a pissy mood and would love to hear your stories.
personally, i'm thinking of getting a tatoo on my rear end saying wbt$ kiss this!.
Going to a nude beach........enjoyed it........no big deal.......will do it again.
the society is spiritually bankrupt.....that's what we were experiencing before we left.. .
having turned their backs on their history, changed their 'truth' and abused their followers they now cling to a. clerical theology where numbers, be they accurate or not, have become the new truth.
the numbers, financial investments, real estate and blind obedience....to the death if need be....... are the firm pillors the wtbts stands on.. .
The observation excellently fits the definition of a "parable".......to be quoted to active JWs.
just wondering if your name describes what you saw, how you were treated when you were "in" or now "out", maybe your personality, ect.... i'm label licker and the why i picked this name was because of all the licking up one side of elders and down the other to either be an elder or ministerial servant.
one time i was standing right in front of this brother who wasn't made an ms yet and he totally ignored me and talked right over my head speaking really loud trying to catch the co's attention.. got sick of watching the poor elderly sitting all alone or standing against the wall like a wall flower with noone to talk to and yet all these label lickers would take turns picking up the elders elderly parents and take them shopping and do their groceries at least four times a week while out in service, yet, there was noone there to take a meal to a sister who just got out of the hospital with a heart attack.
when i had shown up at her apartment with a meal she asked if i could wash her private and change her bandages.
The name I chose symbolizes a boggy, wet marsh, that when one walks through feels trapped
and mired and can not get out. I was a born-in 3rd generation and moved from family at 23 years
old to Northern Virginia. So now at 76 years old I still feel the negative effects of this religious
upbringing. So, for comic effect, the letter "n" can indicate "heathen".........just kidding now.
