  2. friends

  after observing a couple of the current threads on this board, i thought that i'd throw this.

  issue out there to see what people think.

  i'm really curious.. has it been your experience that people who were jehovah's witnesses in the past tend to carry.

  To All those on REINCARNATION thread

  2. friends

  risking the flames of the ignorant, let me suggest some reading for all you awakening humans who i have come to love:.

  do a search on john edward, he has a site but i am not sure if it is johnedward.com or .org, and he is also on the sci-fi channel(cable tv in usa) and has a site on their page too.

  i recommend getting one of his books and watching his show.

  The "Ransom Sacrifice" short version.

  by Norm in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in the christian part of the world not many of us have escaped the much hyped and published sacrifice christ supposedly made when the romans executed him.. i myself was going around for years parroting this strange concept without giving it much thought.

  thinking and faith some times do not mix very well.. anyway, apparently god made a royal blunder when he created the first humans and they plunged mankind into death and despair first crack out of the box, while god stood by and watched helplessly.

  then we are told that god for this reason, in his infinite wisdom took mankind for ransom for thousands of years.

  I Think That I Chose My Parents.

  by Englishman in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  do you believe in reincarnation?.

  i dont think i believe in it in the same way that most believers do, which is that we keep coming back in different fleshly bodies until we have achieved perfection.. i do, however, strongly suspect that we may well be spirit creatures who find it necessary to inhabit a fleshly body from time to time, and that this entails us having to leave behind most of our past memories.. i say most memories, because many people seem to have some vestigal recollections that don`t seem to fit in with earthly experiences.. i`m pretty sure that i chose my parents!

  i have a recollection of being shown a young and kind couple through some form of astral telescope and choosing to become their son.

  ok the reasoning goes like this.

  we use les than 1% of our brains (some even less).

  there fore we have a huge unused capacity (our brains could be 99% smaller and we wouldnt notice).

  Ultimate JW Butt-Kissing Site!

  by nicolaou in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  came across this site earlier today.

  after i'd picked my crying ass up off the floor i thought i'd let the rest of you in on it.. there are eleven, count them eleven, links to 'official' org sites on the front page alone.

  typical quote: "as you may presume according to the above, this frame is to announce additional information on this unauthorized website.

  This is what the Society does to people

  i found the terse, typed letter displayed above sitting on my microwave oven when i got home from work a few months ago.

  it was addressed to me from my best friend and brother-in-law of many years.. a couple of days before we got into a discussion over "what was wrong with me.

  " i had recently grown a goatee that he thought was extremely 'unchristian'.
