Every one I've ever known to claim seeing/hearing demons was a drug user, and not just casual but major drug user
every other instance was sleep paralysis to the T
i know there is a lot of people on here that will say it is pure make believe but i am interested if anybody has had any real concrete things happen such as something moving or something appearing in the mirror etc.. anything just post it up here even if it wasn't much.
please give a little context as to the situation..

i just learned that sometimes people give "green handshakes".
is this the same as bribing your way up?.
thanks for any posts..
It's not hush hush
it was mentioned in a comment last week at WT study as a generous loving thing to do
i have being thinking quite a while before posting.
actually i haven't post for quite a long in the forum and i guess i'm one of the old ones, since i became member since 2001.. after leaving the borg for almost 16 years and disfellowshiped 10 years ago.
you can see my relevant post:.
You miss and love your family
you stood your ground but none followed.
i live inside for the sake of my family so I can half understand your dilemma
many of us say we would die for our family. Would we go back to the WTS for our family?
if you believe you can mentally handle the duality and be happy then who could fault you for going back? Don't look for the approval of outsiders for your decision, you must give yourself permission and approval to live that way and be happy about it. If you can then you'll be successful, if you can't then you should not go back
good luck my friend

i have found an article on their website that moved me to contact them.
i share it here hoping more will contact in a similar vein and maybe we can raise awareness and tear down this propaganda.
i'm writing regarding an article about jehovah's witnesses and their blood transfusion doctrine, found here:http://tinyurl.com/pxku9dgit is clear to me, reading this article, that it's writer is either profoundly ignorant or profoundly biased.
Dr's advance their capabilities with non-blood treatment by working with blood over decades on thousands of patients advancing their knowledge& understanding and through that sinful act develop effective non blood treatments.
Then JWs praise this as a victory for JWs and the intelligence of their blood prohibition!
would we praise a thief for stealing so much and becoming so wealthy that he didn't need steal anymore but still had no moral dilemma with stealing???
so lately i've felt so frustrated and overwhelmed that i had to tell someone how i felt.
my parents were gone so i decided to talk to my sister.
we've always been close so i thought i could trust her because we have talked about it before.
okay, i know the royal commission hasn't started yet.
but i'm confident enough that he will be telling some whoppers.
so i thought i'd be the first to get a thread started for something that will begin... very soon now!.
The GB can never lie. Not unless they are all saying the same thing together at the same time in unison.
No individual is the GB. They must all be together making decisions as a body.
sure GJ made some "mistakes" but he wouldn't have had Jah's HS on him as the F&DS would have. I guess we'll never ever get to see the "F&DS" ever actually lie on stand
pity
so my wife and i were up in edinburgh for the weekend for the international festival - we had a great weekend including going to see the military tattoo at the castle.. we were walking up the royal mile watching the street performers among hundreds of thousands of others from all over the world when i spotted the cult cart in it's usual spot being universally ignored.
feeling confident after my confrontation a couple of weeks ago we decided to go and have a chat with the two men.
i asked them if they were keeping up with the events in australia and proceeded to share lots of information with them.
Nice job cofty
they will outwardly scoff you, but deep down they will think about your points and at least how crazy the JWs "look" to outsiders
well done
within the first few minutes, mr. stewart asked geoffrey jackson if the members of the governing body consider themselves to be god's spokesperson on earth.. his response: "that would be presumptuous of us" (implying that they don't consider themselves to be god's sole channel of communication).. to me, that was the worst lie of about 26 lies he's told during this hearing.
however, mr. stewart missed an opportunity to call out mr. jackson on this bold-faced lie.
he should have asked him to explain why the watchtower magazine teaches otherwise.
"presumptuous to say the we are the "only" spokesperson god is using...."
he should be DFd for apostasy. He is implying there could be someone else on earth used by Jehovah to teach truth.
wait a tic..... you didn't mean Jah was using angels did you? or that perhaps non governing body members could possibly be used and you don't know it yet, kind of like the old F&DS teaching?\
Are you playing games with this on GJ? so typical
since geoffrey jackson's appearance before the australian royal commission on friday there has for some been an expressed feeling of anticlimax.
it is as though he was given too much latitude to preach, to claim ignorance and to skirt questions.
more to the point, as much as i myself thought i would never have expected to say this, gj actually came across as likeable and - don't throttle me please!
Dumplin-
your reasoning with your wife was spot on
