JWs and legalized Marijuana

by jws in

i know this was probably covered before in some post, but i was curious.

what is the jw stance on recreational marijuana use in the states where it has been legalized?.

i would suspect smoking it, like cigarettes, would probably still be against the rules, but there are ways to use it that aren't damaging to your lungs.

Cannabinoids remove plaque-forming Alzheimer’s proteins from brain cells

Preliminary lab studies at the Salk Institute find THC reduces beta amyloid proteins in human neurons

LA JOLLA–Salk Institute scientists have found preliminary evidence that tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and other compounds found in marijuana can promote the cellular removal of amyloid beta, a toxic protein associated with Alzheimer’s disease.

While these exploratory studies were conducted in neurons grown in the laboratory, they may offer insight into the role of inflammation in Alzheimer’s disease and could provide clues to developing novel therapeutics for the disorder.

“Although other studies have offered evidence that cannabinoids might be neuroprotective against the symptoms of Alzheimer’s, we believe our study is the first to demonstrate that cannabinoids affect both inflammation and amyloid beta accumulation in nerve cells,” says Salk Professor David Schubert, the senior author of the paper.

Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive brain disorder that leads to memory loss and can seriously impair a person’s ability to carry out daily tasks. It affects more than five million Americans according to the National Institutes of Health, and is a leading cause of death. It is also the most common cause of dementia and its incidence is expected to triple during the next 50 years.

It has long been known that amyloid beta accumulates within the nerve cells of the aging brain well before the appearance of Alzheimer’s disease symptoms and plaques. Amyloid beta is a major component of the plaque deposits that are a hallmark of the disease. But the precise role of amyloid beta and the plaques it forms in the disease process remains unclear.

I'm sure that there are tons of youth raised under Watchtower corporation's directives that are looking on the YouTube to find information. A video of this nature should excellorate the move of young one out of the organization intelligently.

Your documentary fills a very basic need of many in the process and definitely a sign of the times for a dooms day mind control cult.

After watching "the last man on earth" I've been thinking about the paradise

by purrpurr in

if you haven't seen will forte's "the last man on earth" on amazon prime, do as its really funny.

the setting of the story is that 2 years prior a virus has killed all humans except one.... amongst the high jinks are the struggles he has with things like; getting water from the water system when the areas water supply is no longer being maintained, ditto sewerage, not having ready access to fresh foods that require industry like butter and cheese, not having access to medical help, being unable to communicate with anyone outside of shouting distance, having no electricity / electronic appliances.. it's got me thinking, all the wt's illustrations show the time when armageddon is over as being really joyful and there being plenty for everyone.

but in fact that would just not be the case, especially since most jw's have no survival skills or expert knowledge of any kind.. jws just don't think about this, how are all those couples who are waiting untill the new system to have kids, going to have kids in a survival setting?

When You Die Would You Haunt The Governing Body? If It were Possible?

by Brokeback Watchtower in

i've been reading a lot about reincarnation these days and i'm beginning to think that it quite possibly might be true, it seems to fit in nicely with the idea that we live in a computer simulation.. anyway according to the tibetan book of the dead when we die we seem to hang around on the earth waiting for rebirth.

at which time we could be ghosts.

If I become a ghost when I die... there is no way I am spending a single nanosecond of my second life on any JW and especially not on the Governing Body

I think after a little haunting of Warwick's most important residence(GB). I would soon be very tired and bored, and would be out and about getting to learn the ropes of this being dead thing and try all kinds of different neat stuff you can do. I hope they have some sort of internet for ghosts that would be cool.

I've never been much of a mind fucker in this present life and I would get really bored soon so I would have to force myself to stay their and keep causing mischief after I put the GB through the paces.

Has this quote on hatred been true in your experience with JW's?

by Wasanelder Once in

i came upon this quote relating to the results of hatred: .

"i imagine one of the reasons people cling to their hates so stubbornly is because they sense, once hate is gone, they will be forced to deal with pain.

has your hatred of the organization been an effort to avoid dealing with your pain?

Brokeback Watchtower

I think pain maybe true that is the way our mind guides us. And yes I think it could bea large part of the equation but not the total, it is not that black and white.

Hate is a negative emotion with negative consequences but if you suppress this hate with negativity you put it in your shadow, and loss a part of ourselves. I'm for unrepressing one's shadow and becoming a more whole person, so I would say unrepress one's shadow wisely accept our vengeful dark side but lead it with a wisdom that capitalizes on both our dark and light side. And so I admit to being consumed by hatred in my early years of finding the TATT but through vigorous hiking through the mountains over many mile and shouting into the wild untamed country side my hatred it subsided and I have been able to come to my senses and now feel a more kinder dispostion to this total and complete idiots. I still want to see them begging and in the streets but if it really did happen I SUPPOSE I WOULD FEEL SORRY FOR THEM.

Being totally good should not be a goal we strive for but a balance of yin and yang that leads to the middle road of this and that.

I'd be planting thoughts of suspicion into the minds of every GB member one against the other and make them make every blunder possible with as little collateral damage as possible. A karmic spook or demon as they would say could really do a lot of damage to these guys throwing them from blunder to blunder and exterminate them.

I guess in a simulated universe that would be considered a minor tweaking of the software for a guy to get into the head of another and fuck the shit out of his own ego based insecurities to lead him down the royal path of oblivion once you know his mind and complexes.

Hey this seems like it is already happening could this be a matter of being outside time and spooks are already spooking these guys and making them act so goofy?

Tight pants dilemma solved

by rebel8 in

jw
friends

the principles that we glean from god’s word should move us to avoid wearing clothing that is tight-fitting, revealing, or sexually provocative.

that would rule out wearing clothing that exposes or accentuates private parts of our anatomy.

nobody should feel uncomfortable or forced to look the other way when seeing how we are dressed.

Brokeback Watchtower

Good one! I mean lets take it to a whole nother realm of modesty to avoid stumbling Tight Pants Tony's imaginary Jehovah. Lets be serious this guy got issues that should not be express in public and recorded on to the internet from a fifth collum inside the organization. Has the Governing Body lost it's mind? This guy is a fucking loose canon.

I admit the GB fucked with me and disfellowshipped me for speaking against the Organization which cost me the loss of many family members, so I might make the candidate for being a tormenting karma type of mystical type of justice spook that would hang around and try to balance the scales of justice, it might cost me in Karma but hey why not do as much damage as I can to these total delusional unloving bastards as I can and thus fulfill some tit for tat karma.

Alright think of this scenario suppose this whole universe is just a computer simulation and those that die or are without a material body in the simulation can access the computer code that is running the simulation and make some edits and fuck up the Governing Body big time and see to their swift and utter end and have them do a flaming exit to the world of information. I'm talk head on collision with the information age blowing them to simtherines in a very short time to insignificance beyond recall.
