Wow that's great, riding a bike is healthy and fun!
Living in a country with more bikes than people it's hard to imagine not riding for so many years...but it shows your courage and agility to start riding again after 45 years :-)
greetings, fellow posters:.
i bought a nearly new 7-speed bicycle at a yard sale for $30 last weekend and took it out this morning on our paved local bicycle/walking trail.
the last time i rode was in my early- to mid- twenties when i used a bicycle to get to and from the kh for my pioneer service.

i've been using the forum to vent and post a lot more frequently lately as a venting purpose & way to obtain peace of mind with the craziness i've been going through recently as i fade away form the org.
anyways today i'm sitting here at work and thinking to myself about demons... ok i know this sounds crazy but has anyone else out there been traumatized by the thought of demons?
i had a dream the other night, just flat out spooky and i woke and couldn't help but feeling it may have been evil ole' satan and his demons at it again.. i don't want to believe that, (trying not to, & just brushing it under the rug so to speak) but have any of you out there been talked up about demons?
Did any of you believe in or even experience personal guardian angels while still a JW?
Many non-jw people do. If you didn't or don't believe their claims of personal guardian angels and dismiss them as wishful thinking, why would you now believe in demons (possibly) messing with you instead of dismissing your own ideas as fearful thinking?

Zeb,
Care to elaborate?
(I understand you might not want to risk being ridiculed)
Still, using magnetic fields, low frequency vibrations, drugs, mass 'hysteria' etc it's quite easy to induce demonic experiences l...
there are a couple new tabs on the app, one of which is the 'meetings' tab.
can you guess what the other one is?.

How convenient. No need to go to the KH to hand over your gold. Now even the inactive and submarine dubs don't forget to donate.
@Faye,
The fact that you even think about helping the widows and orphans shows you must be an apostate!

adding it to the list.... may 2015 broadcast.
jehovah will care for our needs.
@Steve,
Yeah that idea popped up here as well.
Make regular donations of the lowest amount, reveal bits of ttatt in the description fields....wake up the money men...lol
finish school.. finish my apprenticeship (why are you doing that brother karter you will never finish it in this system).. buy a house.. pay the house off.. karter..
Too fresh out but some things on my list of new possibilities:

If spirits are able to mess with electronics, lighting, hide stuff or uncover long lost items, make sounds, influence dreams, etc...
Why can't they just grab a pencil a write on a piece of paper 'hey its me I miss you guys'.
Or knock Morse code. Send an email.
To me it seems that all the signs attributed to souls and spirits are just as clear as answers to prayer: you might get some, or not. You never know for sure. And it's all complete up to yourself to come up with an interpretation. It's always ambiguous at best. Without your own wishful thinking the events would never have picked up as a message from God/spirits.
But maybe I'm too skeptical...

Inanimate objects are safe.
Just don't keep snakes or donkeys as pets. Or pigs. Or bearded people. Or blind people. Cripple. Epileptic. Mute. Deaf. They're all possessed. Or at least they could be. Better safe than sorry...
in the netherlands, a tv crew for powned (a website/tv station known for their non-conventional approach and love for controversy) visited a circuit assembly.
the video starts with them asking 'is everyone welcome here, even criminals, bikers, gays?
', and the answer is of course yes.. then the clip focuses on asking dubs questions about gays and the caleb video.. in the end the crew is asked to stop filming and leave.
@menrov,
Yeah, they weren't exactly challenging. Probably because they had some instructions from the press info desk, and because they are accompanied by a press desk brother at all time.
And even without the not-so-challenging question they were disturbing enough.
Ah well...I never like it either when a TV crew roamed the convention. What the h would I say to them? It's hard to defend the undefendable...
