Hey Twitch, that 1st picture was exactly what appeared in the sky during my miraculous healing!!!! lol, no... like the picture though. Is it from Doom?

just fine, you wrote:

I don't think I can answer OC questions any better than I have

My impression too, but it wasn't up to me to make such a statement. Another intriguing detail that came to my mind was that my healer has diabetes. Only when her sugar is high, she uses pictures (including mine) to make the pain of others disappear from a distance. Her sugar then drops. Another indication that energy transfer is the main factor, and my healer clearly needs to take care of a good energy balance (she's 90 years old!).

It also reminds me of Jesus, who stated in Luke 8:46 that power went out of him. Clearly, some carpenters have "the gift" also.

From the article:

Lord Justice Floyd said it was "fair just and reasonable" to order the church's governing body to pay compensation.

Dear Lord, please open the eyes of the righteous ones. I'd say: Let it come and...

Okay everyone, time for an update (for those who are interested), but first of all, thanks for all the replies.

Lisa Rose, incredible story (if true). I think we can't apply the placebo-effect to this dog, who didn't see that one coming! The healing happened fast en suddenly, I also assume there was too little time for the dog to suspect the healing stranger to be an off-duty vet or dog-whisperer

Anders Andersen, I read your link regarding phantom-pain. It's interesting to read that regarding the mirror technique, the site admits:

It is not obvious why this simple technique works

rebel8, I read this on your link:

Patients told they were getting a placebo still reported improvements at a much higher rate than patients who were not treated.

The outcome is fascinating and confirms what many of us already know... the mind can be very powerful, even (as the experiment shows) if we are fully aware of the placebo-effect. But, an improvement is what it is, an improvement. I went from pain to no pain within seconds, a 100% efficiency just by gently pressing my wrist! No crystal ball, no prayer, no questions about any of my personal views...just a human touch. This was no long term experiment with gradual improvement, this was some sort of on/off switch. Again, very effective.

This also brings me to two different views among the replies:

OrphanCrow > I think it is important to remember that the "gift" only works if the recipient of that "gift" accepts it. That gift is ineffective without a willing participant to receive it

just fine > The lady that I see says it doesn't matter if you believe her or not it works anyway.

I promised to ask my healing lady about it and Idid today. She confirmed what just fine wrote. No faith required.

Nevertheless OrphanCrow asked some additional questions, which haven't been answered yet by just fine.

It is to be expected that every healer, receiver and situation has its own "rules" and chemistry. So far, I'm very happy with all the stories and replies, thanks again. I hope to reach a balanced, non-superstitious view and certain things I can relate to.

Disco Haters - Buzz Off

the beegees were awesome, and our scientology bro travolta had the best white man moves, period.. stay alive, baby.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_izvabhexy.

"You Should be Dancing" is just irresistible!!!

Disco is very cool and although the genre was hated intensely at times, the classic disco-beat (4 on the floor with open hi-hat on the upbeats) simply has become one of the standard and essential rhythms of contemporary music! I played some disco in an allround band for four years and it delivered me two songs on a sampler dvd and a gig in Holland's famous Amsterdam-based Paradiso club! Good vibes

O.K. Everyone..Here it is!! Grayson v.s. Insight Book!!!

by Lady Liberty in

here are the scanned copies i promised i would post.

thanks to my wonderful husband, he made it all possible, as he is a computer whiz!

these copies show the out and out deception on the part of the organization.

Thanks lady Liberty. Another nail in the coffin of the WT's integrity. SHAME ON THEM!!!

Reminds me of another example of a misquote regarding 607 BCE that can be found at jw.facts:

In the 2010 book God's Word for Us Through Jeremiah, a statement is made regarding a find by Eilat Mazar, supporting two Characters mentioned in Jeremiah.

"Archaeologist Eilat Mazar reports unearthing a small clay seal impression, or bulla. (below left) It was found in 2005 during a supervised excavation of a layer dating back to when Jerusalem was destroyed in 607 B.C.E." God's Word for Us Through Jeremiah p.55

The reader may get the impression that Eilat is supporting the year 607 B.C.E., whereas she presents that the destruction was in 587 B.C. (See articles at jpost.com and archaeology.hui.ac.il) There was no need to mention the date 607 B.C.E., as it was not relevant to the topic, and for the sake of accuracy the writer could have referred to "when Jerusalem was destroyed by Babylon." The Watchtower inserts this date to deceitfully condition Jehovah's Witnesses that 607 B.C.E. is historically accurate.

Interesting. I will ask "my" healer about it. Hope she will be honest about her effectivity ;-)

Thanks for your input Anders, I will check the link.

jws > What would James Randi say?

lol Randy is a cool guy, and it's good to have a healthy dose of scepticism (and this forum absolutely contributes to that), but I don't think the paranormal and occult have to do with this. We're not talking about bending spoons here, which was clearly fake in Uri Geller's case.

Since I got rid of the WT fear of demons attacking "true" Christians, I'm open to a rational approach of this phenomena. I've heard all the "psychological" rationalizations all of my life, but now I'm thinking about it as something that isn't understood, but should and could be explained by (bio)chemistry and physics. It has to do with energy transfer, but I'm fascinated by the x-factor. What's the physical and psychological difference between the ones who have the "gift" and who don't? If such a difference can not be determined through science, then WHAT is the trigger that makes it happen? If it's only a matter of self-deceit, then why can't we all "self-deceit" ourselves free of pain? Just manipulate the right emotions and voila? I know this can happen, but this can't always be the answer...

Simon mentioned the placebo-effect, Anders mentioned phantom-pain, others had other ideas , but I really don't believe my situation was a case of "wanting" something or deceiving myself, it just happened the way I told. The pain never was unbearable and I could easily live with it. Therefore I wasn't expecting anything or in a desperate (vulnerable) state, I felt "neutral" during the healing. I had the same comfortable feeling as during a few foot-reflex massages I had so far, where certain areas that are pressed in the foot will influence your bloodstream and give certain "sensations" in other areas of the body. None of that caused lasting effects for the better, just a very comfortable, pleasant and relaxed feeling that lasted for about a day. This is different, the pain is simply GONE and didn't return after a few days, it's simply as that. I'm sure the pressure points have something to do with what is already known for ages within Chinese accupuncture and it's about certain knots, nerve intersections, energy release etc.

It's fascinating to see how some people have the "gift" and others don't. Probably the frequency and intensity of someone's brain waves, the molecular body structure/arrangement and bio magnetism can make a certain canalization/flow of energy possible that actually does have a healing effect. No magic, but just physics/chemistry and energy in a way we still don't understand well. I ackowledge and am aware of the placebo-effect, but I'm leaving out "suggestion" on purpose, because, I repeat, I don't like to consider my case as such.
