please hear me out.
"How far superior are angels/demons supposed to be over us? remember, in Noah's day they wanted to have sex with humans so the gap between them and us is not as wide as say...animals and humans, is it?
Demons hate us, so would be very unfair in a JC. Just like the elders...so nevermind!!!"
Very true, factfinder, but what if demons saw you as a corrupting influence they might want to keep in the fold? Of course, this is all crazy talk. . . . . or isssssssssssssssss it?????????

Idrnomo. . . . . . interesting nic. . does it involve doctor no more? Or since you're from Washington state and born in 1946 Stan Boreson's dog No Mo?

This is totally hypothetical, extremely silly. I was having one of my frequent "senior moments". Please hear me out. Of course, as JW's we did not have the opportunity to select those who might oversee our judicial hearing. Frail, imperfect humans even under the alleged influence of holy spirit, may not actually be the best option. What about being judged by a tribunal of three wicked spirits? Here are some possible advantages.
1. Demons are mentally superior~recall man was created "a little lower than the angels"
2. Demons understand the pain of disfellowshipping having been kicked out of heaven in 1918(yeah, right! lol!)
3. Demons are not "babes as to badness". . . nothing will shock these guys
4. Demons are swayed by "fear of man"
5. Demons can see through "covering over a sin". This might not be actually an advantage depending on your priorities

suffice to say most of us appreciate favorable comments when we initiate a thread.

the kind words of our brothers and sisters contributed to our self-esteem.

curiouser & curiouser. . . . . first "Grandma Jones" threatens to dig up some of my old posts for whatever reason. Next, "grandson" posts on "grandma's" account asking for an account of his own which is granted. Now, "grandson" sounding exactly like "grandma" posts excerpts from my old posts just as "grandma" threatened to do. The reality of this is irrelevant, but semi-interesting. Either the apple(grandson) falls incredibly close to the tree(grandma) or a troller is double trolling from the same computer with an identical style, grammar, sentence structure, etc.

I read and reread your post. What exactly are you trying to say?

tms,
:But we've grown up somewhat since those days. Do we still rely on the support of others? Would you try to gauge the general interest or lack of it from forum members before starting a thread? If you received some criticism concerning the content or tone of your thread, would you abort it?
:Perhaps, what I'm intimating is: "Are you ready for the real world or still in the JW mindset?"
Non sequitur and false dilemma. It may break your heart to know this, but every second of every day, people who have never been JWs or ever heard of JWs make conscious decisions not to do things for fear of criticism from others.
So your personal agenda against me notwithstanding, your reasoning skills still suck.

lol. I'm not the one with a broken heart over criticism. If someone says something unpleasant about what I've written I don't turn tail and farkel.

You do have a point, TMS. If something is worth posting then it shouldn't really matter what other people think about it- if it really is important to the poster.
Exactly, transhuman68, unless you're so mentally weak that you wilt without adulation from others.
