  Have you been J-SNUBBED? HOW RUDE!

  by sparrowdown in

  i got to thinking the other day about how the wt uses loaded language.

  and spin to give thinly veiled credence and so-called respectability to their policies.. but why not call a spade a spade.

  why not identify the true nature of a policy,.

  You have to be strong

  by troubled mind in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  standing up for yourself,and deciding to follow your own path takes strength .

  you have to be strong especially if you were raised in a way of life that dictated so much of who you were .

  while being raised as a jehovah's witness i was taught to follow ,unquestionally follow .i was told to put others before myself ,serve,don't stand out ,don't be independent .

  I would like for my daughter to see T3 in his tight pants with a pink fluffy sweater, dancing like a fairy, so she might feel the need to leave the lunatic asylum known as jw-land.

  hello one and all.. the local jws had a booth set up at my university today and something just came over me.

  i went to a computer, found a list of failed prophecies, printed and stapled it, and walked over to the middle aged woman and the 10-ish years old girl.

  the woman said "if you are interested in anything, take it for free.

  bahfest is "the festival of bad ad hoc hypotheses, a celebration of well-researched, logically explained, and clearly wrong evolutionary theory".

  it is part of the 2014 bay area science festival.. additional information can be found at http://bahfest.com/.

  here is a very funny talk by matt inman called jeebers crabst.. i love his definition of faith - "a magical wizerd sauce that, when drunk, allows you to say, do and believe the dumbest shit imaginable, and still feel right".. .... .
