I wanted to do what is right and for that I was hated. Its ironic really.
Ain't that the truth - no pun intended!

Elders, oh my God what a bunch of losers!
by Crazyguy inok i don't mean to put all of them into just one box so to speak, their are some that are smart successful etc.
but my god most of them are just wasted space, ignorant, no drive, horrible jobs, make nothing for income and the only thing in life they have going for them is this title.
no wonder so many will not wake up and hold on to this stupid cult, it's all they have.

Adult Homework and Extra Credit
by lovesjehovah init seems that once we became sensible adult humans, we lost our way.
we stopped asking questions.
we submitted to the bidding of the world.

Make empathy the ideal. It would preempt greed, slavery, cruelty, all the things that are keeping us down; and promote sharing, healing and good for humans and the whole planet. Anarchy rules, justice is determined by the village.
That, and transcendentalism + science = possible hope for humanity. xx

Yes, it was a mistake. You know it now.
Stop feeling guilty, we all make mistakes - some more costly than others. Happy your kids are NOT wanting to be JW.
27 years is a long time but you have many years to go. I hope she would leave the cult, but if not, it's better to be alone and lonely, than with someone and utterly miserable. cold silence et al.All the best. xx

VI , I have a friend who has a farm, an organic one. We don't have to treat animals like 'livestock', ie, the factory farm. The fowl and pigs are fed food from our tables, and not penned in prisons. They are happy - we are omnivores, and yes, they provide food. But they do not live a life of sufering
And hell, yeah! Pigs are super intelligent, and very CLEAN. The dirty pig is a myth. I would love to have a porcine friend.: P

Godless witch that I am, this poem brings me comfort.
** wait, listen, can you hear it? It's her ........ " xoxoxoJust this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.
When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.
All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.
They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.
You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.
Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....
