The ego get's in the way quite a lot. The ego doesn't necesarily need to die. A person can step out of it for a while. W the ego temporarily out of the way, a person can sometimes get another perspective on things.

If ARMAGEDDON Came, Would YOU Repent?

by Cold Steel in

the day finally comes.

you get up one day with the nagging feeling that it's going to be different.

you get dressed, get in the car, then notice how dark the weather's getting.

I know, because i know. I know that the jehovah god idea is just an idea. I can't prove that to somebody else, i guess. On the other hand, the wt corp and most of its doctrines have been proved false. The bible has been proved to be not divinely inspired, and wildly inaccurate. Although, some is historical, and some is a kind of philosophy. The jews and the roman catholic church are merely tribalistic groups. Tribalsim is a continuation of the animal nature that we inherited from our animal ancestors.

Anyhow, if all of the above is false, and the wt is right, then i'm not afraid to die.

For believers. Is it wise to test GOD? (the crossing of the Grand Canyon)

by jam in

it was obvious he was a believer, he was talking to jesus the.

first 350 yards.

lol the last few yards he thank the discovery.

I'm glad he made it. The way i see it, whatever helps him be all he can be. In that situation, he needs something for his mind to chew on, like a dog needs a bone. Sounds like he didn't have control of his mind, so he needed to keep it occupied w positives.

If stuff like this happened, for me to believe that it was the wt brand armageddon w its god behind it, i would need to see his iniyials written accross the sky, or something like that. If it was that, it would be too late for me, anyway. But, wt end isn't going to happen - jehovah is a false catholic name for a nonexistent jewish god, based from old, false jewish writings. Jws are just the latest iteration of wierd apocalyptic cults.

Anyone else an Ex Bethel "volunteer"

by BackseatDevil in

i was wondering if there were any other ex-bethelites on here.

i personally regularly went for temporary work at brooklyn then was assigned to the farm for a year and a half.

it was... one of the most bizaare experiences of my life.. so i wrote it all down (finally, after some 15 years) so i won't bore anyone on here with the details of the story - because bethel doesn't show up until chapter 15... and for you straight folks, it gets a bit gay in two places... but nothing gross.

Anyone who's seen 'Man of Steel', can we talk about SPOILER-related stuff?

by sd-7 in

okay...so...that said, i haven't seen the movie, which would be a paradox except that i read the novelization.

so...how'd you feel about the way it ended?
