  2. experiences

  my wifes family has not really kept in contact with her after we left the cult.

  i am the main reason but she never was a strong believer she just went with the flow as to not cause problems.

  she has not heard much from her mother since the death of her brother 3 years ago.

  ' LOL I have to laugh at how Dubbers think that somehow the words in the Tower are magical and if you would just sit down and read them you would magically see and the scales would drop from your eyes. bla bla bla.'

  Been there, done it, myself. The whole day of socializing was laying the groundwork, softening up, cultivating the field for that very moment of slipping the magical literature into the hands of the target. They wanna snatch her out of the fire. Being able to count time, too. Kill 2 birds w 1 stone, so to speak.

  Overwhelming Fear of Death

  do any of the posters on here deal with this?

  i do, and i hate it.

  people (mostly my brother) tells me to not fear death and just to enjoy life and so on, but that doesn't seem to help any.

  Its an ego reaction. The ego is terrified of siecing existence. Paradoxically, the ego is a fake mental construct, ie, not really real.

  Learn to meditate, focussing on your breathing. Learn to focus on the present. Learn to pay attention to the present, what is going on around you. Learn to relax.

  2. beliefs

  has anyone ever thought of creating a jw sitcom?

  i mean, there's enough humor and drama in jw culture to keep audiences entertained for multiple seasons.

  we have judicial committees, c.o.

  Dont forget the closet homosexual, trying his darndest to suppress his nature and go/be straight/hetero. Lots of drama potential, there.

  Story of a GB ass-kisser

  by zound in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was reading a life story article in the latest watchtower and had a few thoughts about it i thought i'd share here.

  these life story things are always so depressing to me - this one is slightly interesting because it is told by a current "governing body helper".. it's called "full time ministry - where it has led me.

  " reading it i just got the impression that this guy (robert) was aiming to be a gb member but fell short and ended up being a gb "helper".

  The only thing in this world we have complete unquestionable control over is our own mind, and our own thoughts, and how we choose to frame (or think about) things.

  the only thing in this world we have complete unquestionable control over is our own mind, and our own thoughts, and how we choose to frame (or think about) things.. and when you throw away all of the layers of constructs.

  religious mores,.

  agendas,.

  The inquisitive nature is something we inherited from our 2 legged evolutionary ancestor. Monkeys also inherited this nature. JW telescope - simians, at their finest!!
