I'm sure I didn't dream this but as a jw child I seem to recall
this explanation for the flood:
Before the flood it didn't rain;there was a huge canopy of water
around the Earth which helped protect it and stabilised the temperature so there wern't extremes like now.
Plants etc grew with the help of early morning dew(!)
When the flood occurred Jehovah burst the canopy and tons of water
came down as rain thus flooding the entire Earth.
Ever since then we've had rain and the natural balance of Earth's weather was disrupted.
After Armageddon Jehovah will restore the canopy,and everything will be honkydoory again!
Anyone buy this ??

Before I graduated to DC I used to buy Whizzer and Chips , Monster Fun ,Beano, Dandy ,Eagle. They tended to be printed on low quality paper with jagged edges like newspapers .Every year there would be an annual hardbound edition around christmas time.
I never really got into Marvel comics . You were either DC or Marvel and stick loyally to one or the other ! -

Hi again
That reminds me of an elder I knew who told young ones that his favourite film is "Die Hard" ! Also met an elder at assembly who loved Terminator2 . Strange thing about my dad was he used to get The Sun newspaper with page 3 girls in .... wonder why ?
I suppose I'm picking a bit now but once you come away from it all you really remember all the hypocrisy more . Just one more (!).. I knew an elders son who showed me his collection of 18 cert films . His dad knew but told him to keep them hidden in a draw under his bed just in case ... -

Prisca Hi
Interesting post . Actually although I collected mainly American comics I also bought British ones like 2000A.D which even 20 years ago was far more violent than DC and Marvel stuff . Talking about TV we wern't allowed to watch the Carry On films on tv because they were "too rude" . Also Grange Hill was out ( encouraged rebellious behaviour etc ) But once the Watchtower or Awake mentioned something specific my dad came down on me like a ton of bricks.
After comics I moved on to computer games ... well we know how witnesses feel about those............. -

by butalbee ini'm not really sure if i have the right to spectulate about this or if i'm just being paranoid.
but why does it seem that some of the posts lately are being made by--false prophets??
it seems to be an odd similiarity to some of the posters and it's just been "urking" me lately.

Jerome : Do you want to make peace ?
Me: I didn't know we were at war
Ok so what else do you wanna know about jws from us ex-jw's?
So you're already involved with this girl who's a witness
Obviously she wants you to study
Obviously jws want you to study (I'm assuming you're who you say you are and are only 18 ... benefit of doubt etc)Obviously we here want you to run a mile from jws
What next ?
By the way where did you learn to spell?

Well Outlaw cheers .. I'm new here as you may know and you can obviously tell a false type or " lurker ".... What exactly is he up to ?I thought he was wanting advise about getting involved with jw girl. However I've been reading his posts past couple of hours !!
Anyway if he isn't jerome and is jw what's his point ?Rummy1

When I was a kid aged 11 I was A Jw kid but I absolutely loved to read and collect DC Comics (Superman Batman etc)
Then guess what happened ? The WBTS brought out an Awake codemning them !!! And guess what ... Yes I stopped collecting comics in June 1982 at the grand old age of 14 !
Why ? Because they are violent satanic and corrupting on a young mind of course.... What a load of CRAP !!!
The WBTS stole agreat part of my childhood away from me ... would they have preferred it if I collected porn mags ??!!(actually i did...secretely of course !!)
Anyone else had a similar experience ?
