  Evolution, Biogeography VS. Experimental archaeology

  by Brother of the Hawk in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i thought of posting this on an ongoing thread regarding proof of noahs flood by poster *lost*, but i think a separate thread is needed.

  this is why.. first my disclaimer.

  this thread is a theory since so many people love the theory and so as not to hurt feelings and insult anyone, this is only a theory.. my personal observation is this, as long as you bash watchtower all is ok. as soon as you try to present any resemblance of christianity or any belief in the bible, such as the flood, you are personally bashed.

  Chaserious: Your above comment claims that BoTH quoted from the other topic and you couldn't find it....

  Comatose made this comment on page 6 at the top of the page:

  Lost is pretty dim witted.

  Cofty pit up a picture of the rocks he lives by and has visited. Those rocks show layers and speak to the question you asked him. Lost can't understand or figure out simple things though... She would need it spelled out for a 6th grader.

  I would really like it if Lost stopped asking for questions to be answered and did her own research. But, DON'T share your research with us Lost. Just enjoy the wisdom that the strange websites you visit provide (without sharing).

  Yeah right. I'm too old and would give them so much drama that WTBT$ would put a hit out on me

  Regrets for knowing the TATT? Strange feeling overcoming...

  by BluePill2 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  today is a strange day.. i have been out of the borg for a while now.

  some years have passed and i thoroughly enjoy the freedom, not having to bend my mind and rape my soul to force myself to do and say things that i don't feel or believe.

  i started my own business, got a wonderful girlfriend and made some friends (that are not monsters like the wt$ likes to portray others).. my parents, siblings, brothers-in-law, cousins, aunts, uncles, ex-wife, "friends" and my daughter, have cut their contact to me.

  I understand how you feel. We have 'lost' all of our friends and family. Unfortunately if you try to go back in, they still won't 'trust' you and will still have limited contact.

  I know it is difficult. But we cannot get thru that cognitive resonance and mind control fromt he cult.

  Please hang in there

  My little brother went apostate and because the family shunned him, he killed himself. I regret that very much because, now that I am out, I wish he was still around so that we could be 'out' of the Borg together.

  Point is...Don't give up. You don't know that 1, 5, 10 years from now, one of your family members may wake up and see it for what it is A Satanic cult that destroys families
