a couple i knew (now baptized jws, i brought them in) went to a lecture in weston, mass.
they loved the lecture about life and seeking a higher spiritual plain.
right after the lecture (body guards at the doors) they were encouraged to leave their cars in the (now dark, no lighting) parking lot.
The story that you told are classic mind control technique's. Don't know if they made that much of a better decision going to the JW

Like someone else said here don't even waste another brain cell on the AH.
Sorry for ranting but I have no use for these types as I have had my fill of these types of people and their "poor me" routine, while I have worked darn hard all my life for what I have....
All the best,

Lies and games come form both sides (men and women) as I have had my share of them. You don’t like it when it is played on you so why do it to someone else. The best thing you can do is tell him you’re not interested and any more advances will be considered as unwelcome. If it doesn't stop you will have to take it to the next step i.e. sexual harassment. Cut him right off before he gets started is the best way to handle the situation.

how far did the elders expect someone to go in respects to being repentant
You mean do they expect a person to grovel and kiss butt? Yes that is pretty much what they expect a person that wants reinstatement to do.

prince charles was driving on his mother's estate when he accidentally ran over her favorite dog, killing it instantly.
he jumped out of his car and sat down on the grass, distraught.
suddenly he noticed a lamp half buried in the ground.

I think Camilla always looked like a Pit Bull. My apoligies to Pit Bulls.

i find it interesting that the wts has this persecution complex.
apostates all out to get them and stuff.
i must say that although a search on the web will bring you lots of great anti-jw stuff(thier own fault because they only have 1 official website) the number of people actually trash talking is quite small and its mostly ex-jws and some still in the org.
Talking to "worldly" people about Jdubs and it was never a big issue for them. They really never gave the Dubs a second thought let alone bother to persecute them. Most often then not the Dubs bring it on themselves. As a good friend of mine told me about the time her father politely asked the Dubs not to call on their door and this Dub woman had the nerve to stick her foot in the door. She said her father said to her, "if you don't want to lose it, you better take your foot out of the door".
I recall myself going door to door as a kid and after being asked politely by the house holder they were not interested and the Dub would still keep talking until the person at the door would get fed up and abruptly tell us to leave. Looking back on the way some Dubs can be so pushy, I can hardly blame some for being so nasty.

someone posted a thread about lucid dreaming recently, and, of course, i can not find it again!
(simon, when are you going to get the site's search function working again?).
lucid dreaming is where one "wakes up" while still dreaming, and one can be "aware" of what is going on within your dreams.. sounds interesting, doesn't it?.
A subject of great interest to me. I recall as a kid being able to contorl my dream state but as I got older I seem to have lost that ablity. I just bought a book a few months back on how to have Lucid Dreams. I read a bit of it but kind of went away from it for now. Hopefully get back into this fall. I am sure there are internet support groups for this. If anyone has come across such sites I would be interested also.

in last nights episode of the simpsons, homer goes to see the movie "left below", and subsequently becomes obsessed with the rapture.
when they show an equation he's working on to determine when it will come, one of the numbers is 144,000!.
do any other religions besides the witnesses and adventists use that number?
There has been a couple of references to the Jdub on the Simpsons. I recall the time Marge said "I was so bored the other morning I invited some Jehovah's Witnesses in just to talk to and they snuck out when I went into the kitchen to get some Ice Tea"..
