  Are You Surpised By What You Don't Believe In Anymore?

  jehovah's witnesses must "believe" whatever the watchtower bible & tract society publishes.

  now that you aren't forced to accept beliefs that you might not have wholeheartedly endorsed, there must be many different things that you don't accept.....what comes to mind?

  I don't believe that demons will try to attack me in my sleep.

  I don't believe in armageddon and am able to reflect on the possibility of life after death (heaven, reincarnation, what have you)

  I can smoke a cigar just for the hell of it.

  I don't believe it's wrong to celebrate halloween anymore, in fact, I can't wait to dress up and beg for candy.

  it's been a very freeing experience and there are so many things I could list, but the freedom to think for myself and not feel guilty about it is the best.

  for some of us on this forum, we're so far away from one another.

  out of curiosity, do any of you have any photos of where you are from, or the communities that you live in?

  here's one of toronto.

  my backyard, there are benches, an arbor with a table and chairs and glider and a trampoline and kid pool. I love it in the summertime.....all thanks to the ex, he has the greenthumb and tries to teach me how to care for it which is a huge chore, but worth it

  i have been doing contract work for about four years now and i have been trying to get a permanent position for well over a year.

  last week i did an interview for a job that would have been perfect.

  it was even very close to where i live... within a five minute drive.. this morning i got feedback and they really liked me, but decided to go with another candidate.

  It's the same thing here in Michigan. I've been looking for a fulltime job for a year. I'm struggling with web design jobs and freelance writing, but I need good insurance and more stability. Seems employers want you to do the work of three people for the price of one and everybody and his brother is trying to get the same job you apply for. I hate it, never been so frustrated trying to find work ever!

  I'm still trying, but I've also been looking for a need to fill, create my own small business opportunities for now.

  good luck everyone

  i just rented "gangs of new york".

  i watched it last night and my daughter watched it this morning, we agree it was the worst thing we have endured in the last two years.

  we both thought it was terrible.

  I wasn't crazy about it, especially the gore, but I've seen worse this summer.

  Punch Drunk Love was abolutely horrible. Don't do it!

  okay, so i got annoyed yesterday when someone told me i looked like debra winger.

  i find her most unfeminine and unattractive.

  but it doesn't piss me off half as much as when i'm told i look like liza minelli.

  Go Wings!

  Get to a game Aztec, even when they lose, the wings are fun to watch, they have control of the puck 80% more than the other team and it's great to watch how they handle it.

  thanks to little toe's piquing my interest on this subject, i hafta ask it...... .

  has anyone here had any personal spiritual experiences and is anyone here brave enough to describe/relate any personal spiritual experiences they've had, whether pre-borg, during being borganized or post-borg?

  to be more specific, have you ever seen any angels or spirit creatures, been made aware of their presence in any way, interacted with or communicated with them, or had dream/visions...etc?

  Gumby,

  I agree with your thoughts. Just because we can't explain it doesn't make it a "spiritual" thing. My mom loved Roy Rogers, listened to his music and watched the old movies all the time. She even had his pictures up in her living room, decorated it with old western images. Roy Rogers was her childhood hero, sort of a father figure since her own father was a loud mouthed alcoholic. The night he died she woke up in bed, sat straight up and told my dad "Roy's dead". The next morning on yahoo news I read that Roy Rogers had died in the middle of the night so I called her up right away and she said "I know, I don't remember dreaming it, but I just knew real strongly that he had died".

  She's had several other experiences like that and now that she's trying hard to be a "good witness" she claims it must be demons or something.

  sigh

  you need more sleep and less looking at the puter. Whenever I'm at the computer for long days I get that. Good luck,
