ok so i know that this is a very long article about mental illness issues, but it was the definitions at the start of the discussion which reminded me of the wt organisation.

A long ago elder friend told me the policy was to disfellowship the bad personality. No steering them to help, and certainly not inform the congregation.

Better not have any mental bad genes, or develop dementia. Usual love

Anecdotally I heard that Knorr would send you to your room with chicken soup only.

From what everyone hears, you had better be one of the big guys or know where the bodies are buried

I have a sneaking idea the elders who come to support you during surgery are more there to se if you take blood. Last time the surgeon mentioned a fraction but used a different name than the official list of conscience fractions. I never saw anyone hit high alert like that. Damnit, I was the waiting family, and did not want to visit, get lunch, discuss service. All I want is left alone with my thoughts, fears, and memories. I will not go against someone elses directive in spite of personal misgivings

Why do Americans have to pay so much for College???

by RubaDub in

i know there is a huge college/university lobby here in the us that lives off of students paying, in some cases, enormous amounts of money just to attend.. putting politics aside, if that is possible, (and i am not a bernie sanders guy by any means), but how can we pay for pre-kindergarten, kindergarten, elementary school, junior high, high school, and then throw a huge debt to someone who wants to continue learning?

can't the us (public and state universities) afford four more years for young people to get on a career path without having to, in some cases, take out a mortgage/loan more than the cost of some homes?

then, (and nothing against immigrants, i am married to one), but then the us has to "import" students from other countries to fill the needs that we should be supplying here.

The arts may not pay for themselves as such, but they so add to quality of life. You do not want to hear me sing, compose, or paint. Hey! An epiphany, that is where WT gets theirs.

Things like Warren getting high fees is actually a form of money laundering

Relating to a different post; can we study the 607? Zero year (ordinals and cardinals )? How satan's anger started ww1 before he was kicked out ( time warp)?

I know lots of JWs who kept their baptism vow but broke the marriage vow. Some of that stuff like history is unbelievable. DA is a big step, but the cat is out of the bag now.
