Being your own best friend!
by LDH intonight while reading sheila m's post about thunder's parents not even saying anything nice to him when he got his book published, put me in mind of something i've been thinking for a while.. today, all you hear about is "self-esteem" this and "self-esteem" that---a lack of it causes everything from suicide to eating disorders and everything in between.
i believe concerned parents today are much more in tune with rewarding postitive behavior by reinforcing it through praise.. as a jw child, what special assaults on your self-esteem did you suffer and how did you deal with it?.
in short, are you your own best friend?

You might think that I need help that I have been brain washed.
by garybuss inthis was in my e-mail this morning.
******the reason why you left the truth, the truth and not the "truth" like you people believe, is because you have no humility and no love.
when people like you commit something wrong and get disfellowship you can't say to yourself "i was wrong, i messed up, me and only me," you can't say that because is much easier to go around blaming others for your own mistakes.

New Light on the United Nations (U.N.) (Scarlet Beast)
by UnDisfellowshipped inthere appears to be "new light" in the latest watchtower magazine (june 1st 2003 issue).
several watchtower publications for the last 50+ years have said that the united nations (u.n.) organization ("the scarlet-colored wild beast" of revelation) would definitely be the organization that will carry out jehovah's judgment on "babylon the great" (false religion), and then, under satan's [gog of magog's] direction, the united nations organization would become "greedy", and try to attack the remaining remnant of the "anointed" jehovah's witnesses and their companions, the "great crowd" of "other sheep", and then jehovah and jesus would destroy the united nations organization, along with everyone else who was not a jehovah's witness.
here is a quote that shows this: .
