  reflecting on death.

  i can't remember, maybe steve jobs before he died.i thought i would share it with you and see what you think about it, and i'm quoting i think from his book.. "i'm about fifty-fifty on believing in god.

  for most of my life, i've felt that there must be more to our own existence than meets the eye.. i might be overestimating the odds 50/50 out of a desire to believe in an afterlife.

  I watched his speech a few years back and a couple lines stands out, "Stay Hungry, stay foolish" and "always wake up each day thinking today will be your last, because one day you will certainly be right"

  What would be better to let into your house, your barking wife at the front door or your barking dog at the back door?

  Ans: Your barking dog. Because when he gets inside, he stops barking.

  Let's see, half-truths written by an older fool or half-truths written by a young fool are both exactly the same, half-truths that are deceitful to both young and old.

  hi, this is my long overdue introduction.

  i’ve been visiting this site since probably around 2011. in that time, i’ve taken a lot from these discussions and never contributed anything.

  i’m not sure that i have much to contribute these days because i just don’t pay too much attention to wt land.

  By now P L has probably told his "Book" study buddy about this great new site he has found that discusses freely all about the witnesses and has had his first stern lesson from above to stay away from critical thinking by discussing the witnesses with outsiders. If he has any critical thinking in his conscience, he might be back to read more, but if he wants to be continued to be love bombed, he has deleted this site from his browser, and has become just another troll.

  26 Years Later

  i'm one of earliest adopters of the internet in discovering the real history of the watchtower.

  back then it was the wild wild west with newsgroups being the primary sources of information.

  then came watchtower observer, freeminds, and all the other sites that followed jwd was one of the later sites.

  In 1980, I went to the Baptist Book Store and bought a book by William J Schneil, "30 years a watchtower slave" and from then on I knew they were running the biggest scam on uneducated people, close to what Jimmy Swaggert was up to against the baptist. When the internet came about in the late 80,s ( had a 1100 bit rate modem that was state of the art then) I could see the potential then. In 1993 when I got my 56K modem it started to expand exponentially and the knowledge of ttatt could not be stopped. In 1997 I was the first to order DSL and got a circuit from UUnet that was equal to what the banks used then. Now we all have that tech ability and it is all thanks to freedom. Freedom of religion and freedom from religion, and never take it for granted.

  I would surmise that where they found the dead sea scrolls, they also found an ancient HD video recording on a blu-ray dvd disc recorded magically with jesus saying Yahweh this and Yahweh that, the gang in New York would still hold onto Jehovah. They would say it was planted by apostates.

  Reminded me of how the Church of Christ also manipulates children to get obedience to their organization. Sad the way some religions abuse their little ones to get them hooked to their brand of "worship".
