  the fire was burning within me to say something so i mustered up the courage and did it.. .

  we were for lunch after the meeting sitting at the same table as a pioneer sister, her unbaptized publisher bible study, and the bible study's teenage son.

  the pioneer was telling the unbaptised publisher about how no one from sodom and gomorrah would get a resurrection because they were killed directly by god's judgment.. this is where i had heard enough.

  i've never heard a more appropriate ted talk for jw's to take to heart than this one.

  "most of us will do anything to avoid being wrong.

  but what if we're wrong about that?

  wow!... I don't know maybe I'm wrong...

  excellent .. not just jws, everyone on this board should watch this.. I think of how I often wonder what I believe right now, that in the future I will not see the same, and wonder how I ever believed that ..something to look forward too..

  I'll have to wait and SEE!

  i heard that there was a recent (january 2013) big shake up on the west coast in orange california.

  i think it is a kingdom hall on taft street in orange that has a double hall.

  anyway, i heard that there were 10 to 15 disfellowshiped, others given public reproof and several congregations broken up and new conregations started as a result.

  abuse is NEVER GOOD !!

  those of you saying ..'I wouldn't have woke up without it" ... If it wasn't abusive there's nothing to wake up from..

  when I first started researching CULT.. it was refered to as spiritual abuse..

  A comet coming to end the world? Useful information?

  thoughts?

  a woman named amanda started hearing a voiced telling them that a comet was going to destroy the earth.

  they bought a house in the north carolina mountains to prepare, thinking the voice belongs to the dead former owner of the house.
