  One thought struck me as I read this thread thunder
  
  If you have central AC/Heating and the watch has fallen into a vent then the alarm
  will sound almost equally in every room connected to that duct.

  Friendly suggestion,
  
  This might be safer and more appropriate using the private message system on this board.
  
  Just a suggestion.

  'You cant blame God for the mistakes his Org. makes!'

  by Hamas in

  i had a discussion with an 'associate' i used to know back in my meeting days last night.

  he really did show what it means to be a brainwashed victim of the watchtower.

  i told him about false prophecies, and how the wt claims to be a true prophet of god.

  One question might be:
  
  Then why does "his" organization blame its members for mistakes that
  "his" organization made?
  
  Might be a bit over the top.

  ok...i have to admit that i am no stranger to posting on ex-jw forums.

  Welcome to the board Ron.
  
  Fair warning though. There seems to be a temporal disturbance on this board.
  After reading the new posts one will look up and see that what seems like only a
  few minutes has warped into several hours.

  this is only the first few paragraphs of it, as a sort of a teaser .

  <schnip>.

  nobody realizes who russell truly is until they've spent a night in his company.

  SYN!!
  
  Great style and flow. I can hardly wait for more samples.
  
  Just one thing that tripped me up a bit.
  
  "One day they'll make a movie about us two, you know," I hear from behind me later that afternoon. Russell's sparse frame stretches ahead of me like a Japanese devil, all shadow and no substance, powered by the falling sun.
  
  When walking from NY to the west coast in the afternoon, a person behind you would not cast a shadow ahead of you because the sun would be in front of you heading toward sunset in the west.
  
  Great visuals though.
  
  Regards,

  What aspect of freedom from the borg do you love the most??????????

  by BLISSISIGNORANCE in

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  we all had personal reasons for becoming jws and we have all left for just as many different reasons.. but i'm really interested in what types of freedom people have found and are enjoying since fleeing from the wts cult.. for me the greatest sense of freedom has been in the way i live my life with my family.

  now we are able to 'be free' (in reality we were always free, we just didn't know it because we empowered men and they controlled us) with our time and energy.

  we associate with a variety of different people, we sleep in, we garden, we just do nothing, we read books that have nothing to do with the wts, we relax on tues. and thurs.

  due to security issues in our neighborhood we are getting a big dog.

  we had a look at him tonight big siberian husky 8 months old and very big for a husky taller than i am when standing on his back legs more of a howler than a barker hope the neighbors dont complain.

  loves children but dont think he could eat a whole one probably spit that bit out anyway.

  Since you will have to feed as he grows you might want to name him,

  price for truth

  by peacefulpete in

  2. beliefs

  what would you be willing to pay for the answers to all your questions about life, death, religion, etc.?

  and please noone say the clich`e , "noone really knows what is true".

  this is a philosophical question.
