I can't get a good signal to watch it. As of this moment I would say that no plant is evil. Perhaps smoking is not the healthiest way to go?!? If It was not outlawed perhaps futher studies could determine the pro's and con's of THC for people. I am all about the medical use of any plant in existence, especially for people in chronic pain.

Lets Insult Christmas Public WT Now Up on jw.org
by LostGeneration inmight need a vomit bag as your read through this one..... http://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/.
one gem on page six where we have "helping the needy" as the headline - i wonder which "organization" they might be referring to?.
could you set aside, or budget, some money.

What Bible principles can help?
"Do not hold back good from those to whom it is owing, when it happens to be in the power of your hand to do it." (Proverbs 3:27) The poor, the hungry, and the afflicted do not suffer only at Christmastime. If you perceive that someone needs help and it is within "the power of your hand" to assist, why wait for a holiday to act? Your kindness and compassionate actions will be blessed.
"Every first day of the week let each of you at his own house set something aside in store as he may be prospering." (1 Corinthians 16:2) The apostle Paul gave that advice to early Christians who wanted to help the poor. Could you 'set aside,' or budget, some money that you can regularly give to individuals or to an organization that uses its funds wisely? In this way, you ensure that you care for the needy while still giving within your means.
"Do not forget the doing of good and the sharing of things with others, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased." (Hebrews 13:16) Notice that besides "the sharing of things with others," we must also remember "the doing of good," or helpful acts. For example, wise parents train their children to help the elderly with everyday tasks; to encourage the sick by means of a card, a visit, or a phone call; and to take a personal interest in other children who are poor or suffer from a disability. As a result, children learn to be kind and generous year-round.
What a crock!! Cognitive Dissonance 101!
Sing in a blues style for full effect...... Let me tell you a story.... bout a little Dog I know,...... His name was DATA....He went to the Elder show.... Do you trust the SLAVE,...He said I don't know... Do YOU help the widows?....They said Hells No!! .... Now little DATA.... read from the book of James.... 1:26, 27..... he threw out some greek names... THEY said that aint service!.... You gotta D2D!.. Gotta move those Mags...we gots UNITY!....
Now poor little DATA....hung his head and cried...THEY just won't listen...No matter how he tried....THEY said if that was service....it would cause a mess....goin round countin' time....helpin' the depressed.... We love those widows.... but we love the slave more..... help 'em if ya gots time.....after the door to door..... That stuff in James....is just one verse....go preach about the Sovreign...O' the Universe.... We just love ya DATA.....you gots to get yo' time.....we gonna bench you DATA!....to re-adjust yo' mind!!! Feel free to add your own verses!!
Seriously, I was told that Ray Franz hated service and said that mowing you lawn was worship according to Ray. Then i was told that helping people was nice, but if that was field service then we would have to make a list every month of how we helped people and turn it in!!!!!!!! I am not kidding, I recorded it!!!!!! It is insane!!! They are insane!!! Double speak!!! WTH!!!!!

Collective consciousness
by DATA-DOG indoes anyone one besides myself believe in a collective consciousness?
by that i mean there is really only one mind in the universe.
so allthough we are each individuals we are actually of one mind.

Syncrhonous things never happen in my real life. Let me read Jung on more than passing basis, and voila!-they happen.
That's one of my questions about our minds. Do we MAKE things happen? You focus your mind on a subject long enough and perhaps YOU begin to make it happen. It's like imitating people, I do this a lot. I don't sing myself, I don't even know what my voice is ( think about that one therapists ) but I can imitate other singers. It's like acting or channeling, if that is the right term. I don't mean that in a spiritistic way. For instance, I went through a Bruce Lee phase as a kid, I ate, slept and breathed it, I dreamed about techniques, dreamed about working out and would wake up punching drenched in sweat. I could move like him, talk like him, kick and punch like him. I BELIEVED I could do it, where others believe he was gifted and that's why he could do those things and they could not. ( Actually he admitted that he was not particularly gifted ) The point is, I became what I focused on. When I let go of my self-consciousness I was able to crazy stuff! Is that what our mind can do when we let it? What if we all focused on changing this world. Not going D2D giving out magazines, but really helping each other?

Possibly The Most Important Issue Of Our Time

Well Metatron... You already know the answer. Yes the Gov has tech that we don't, I've watched Real Genius 3 times so I know. Why isn't Dr. Greer dead already? That's my red-flag. Is he too much of a high profile target now? Are they wanting to frighten him? If he is right about what's really going on, why is he still alive? I would love to believe he is right. There is only one thing to do. Contact his web-site and learn how to call in a U.F.O yourself. The scientific method must apply right? It should be repeatable for anyone if it is true. Otherwise he is a scammer, like the GB. What if the whole disclosure project in a mis-information campaign on a huge scale? I would love to believe that it is not. Are we the generation that is finally going to get some REAL answers? I just want the PROVEN TRUTH!!! I don't even care if the truth is that Aliens are going to kill us all, or make us slaves to rebuild the Pyramids and Judge Rutherford is gonna suck my soul out so he can live forever! That sounds better than the JW alternative, 1,000 more years of being " organized " while being forced to wear khaki pants with a braided leather belt and my shirt tucked in, being forced to play kingdom melodies at a picnic before I go install some silt-fence for the Elders, and I STILL DON'T KNOW IF I'M GOOD ENOUGH!!!! I will try to call in some aliens if you will!

Well if was just one instance, or just me that seems to experience these things i would readily agree. I am not dismissing the possibility of millions of people having some sort of imbalance either, have you been to Wal-Mart lately? So you don't personally belive in Zen-like moments or being in the " zone " or the " No-mind " state of awareness? It's cool if you don't, I am just throwing it out there anyway. I don't see fairys in my garden photos or anything, but I do believe there is more going on with humanity than religions or main-stream science can account for. My therapy and meds comment was self-depricating humor. Coming here is great therapy for anyone! Also, there is nothing wrong with meds either! Maybe I watch FRINGE too much...

Does anyone one besides myself believe in a collective consciousness? By that I mean there is really only ONE MIND in the Universe. So allthough we are each individuals we are actually of one mind. This allows us to communicate in some as of yet, unexplained way, even across great distances with another person whom you have only met through the internet. Have you ever met someone who seems to be on the same wave-length so to speak? Have you ever known in some unexplained way thet someone was going to call you and picked up the phone BEFORE it rang? Thats the kind of thing I am wondering about. Let me give an example of something that happened to me. While working with another person one day, who is sometimes unsafe, something strange happened. I was standing behind them, just observing, I was very calm, and I KNEW they were going to break the tool they were using. I also KNEW it was going to hit me in the eye and blind me. That was the EXACT thought that came to mind. The wierd part is that about 1/4 of a second BEFORE the tool broke I put my hand out, the tool broke, came straight for my eye, and I caught it. I was still calm at this point and just looked at the other person like " I told you so.." Except I never said a word. They looked at me like I just caught a bullet from a gun. I just shrugged my shoulders and said, " The Force?! ". So how powerful is the human mind? Did my subconscious mind calculate all the probabilities and take over? Did a collective unconsciousness warn me because I was tuned in? Do I believe in those things because I have experienced them, or do I experience them because I believe? Think of this, at one time all humans thought it was " scientifically " impossible to fly. Then someone, somewhere, said well...maybe it's not. Pretty soon it became a reality. Now it is common place. When enough of us " sync " what can we accomplish? Peace? No more boundaries? No predjudice? No organized religion? Are we perhaps moving toward a paradigm shift on our planet? Something that is snowballing beyond the control of religions or governments? I don't mean doomsday, well maybe for those who want to stop it for thier own selfish reasons, money, power, control over others. Just curious. I know it's a little out there for some, but something is happening..does anyone else think about these things? Or...I just need serious counseling and meds...and shock treatments...

For-real First Contact would bugger up the socio-political landscape of the US (and to varying degrees, the rest of the planet) for decades.
We can only hope! In the meantime I will be brushing up on my online tactical squad skills, and self-defense techniques so I will be ready to lead a resistance movement against the Draconians if necessary!!

Do You Think"Any" Jehovah`s Witness Understands The Concept Of Cognitive Dissonance ? Are They Capable Of Comprehending The Meaning ?
by smiddy ini would appreciate your thoughts on the matter , with examples demonstrating their ignorance of the concept.. smiddy.

The Elders in my meetings didn't. They were actually upset that I felt the concept applied within the congregation. I bet they are researching it now.

Yep. I've never even been an Elder, or MS, or pioneer either! How can you sit through that stuff!!! Some people eat that up. One Elder was so happy after one particular meeting, here were his hi-lights: ( exacts words )
When the GB says " jump " you say, " How High?! " while still in the air!
The New world Translation is the crown jewel of the WTBTS's printing achievements.
Higher education for your children will bring you spiritual qualifications under scrutiny.
What a great meeting! I could have made all THAT up! They should grant me immunity and pay my bills! In turn, my articles and meetings will be much more entertaining and happifying! I can save them millions and keep the current members happy. If only they would humble themselves and ask for help!
