    Twitch...... hmmm, not used to it? What is it?

    Pitiful when the only prescription is a book!

    Too funny ...he doesn't know I can devour 5 books before noon!

    I know how this cult thing works, but still...........

    I'm still spinning my wheels!

    The way you write reminds me of Rod McKuen ...loved his

    poetry in the 80's.

    Thanks for coming on here tonight ...6 pages of beautiful people !

    I've been going a long time now

    along the way I've learned some things.

    You have to make the good times yourself

    take the little times and make them into big times

    and save the times that are all right

    for the ones that aren't so good.” ― Rod McKuen, Listen to the Warm

    Suraj Khan... hello, of course you qualify......this is not like the KH.

    I am so glad these words & people uplift you, thank you so much

    for coming here and uplifting us.! It does feel like the ship is being

    abandoned, doesn't it!

    We would like to hear more about your life Suraj

    Thanks for this Thread Clarity ! It gives me hope !

    Up until recently I believed that I would be dead and long gone by the time the WT ship hit the Iceburg.

    It now seems that at least I may see it beginning to sink, ( I am in my 60's), even if I do not see its final disappearing as it sinks to the bottom.

    It may well be that the "Tipping Point" has been reached, and we can just watch it slide away, hopefully with all our family and friends safe aboard a lifeboat or better still, rescue ship.

    A BIG WELCOME to all Newbies !!!

    I hope we do reach a tipping point, but personally I haven't noticed more newbies than usual. I wish there was some way to quantify it.

    Thanks Phizzy ...... the captain(s) of the ship, keep running into ice burgs,

    backing up & then ramming into another one! Too much zig zagging I guess!

    60's is pretty young these days .... you have many years to enjoy!

    Thanks for being here.

    slimboyfat ....I 'm with you on that one ......Simon may be able to come up

    with some way to do the math.

    .

    I would also like to find the approx # of people who are now jw's,

    added up with the number of thoses who have left. In other words,

    the total # of people who have ever been jehovah's witnesses.

    M ust be a total # of baptisms etc, some where!

    The rate of membership here varies, but when I start noticing dozens of

    new names onboard, that's what triggers the NEWBIE list........

    just feels great to say "hi, how are you pal.... welcome home!"

    Tanks. Not familiar with his work but can relate.

    My style is a combo of deductive reasoning, tongue in cheek sarcasm and OCD ;)

    Then there is me, Cha Ching!

    Joined March of this year.

    I am happy to see that others are able to see the hypocrisy of the WTBS

    that I and my fam' did....

    607 and overlapping generations was the beginning, and the "here's how

    you can donate more and more and more" was definitely a show of

    their greedy little hands! Life is much more happy now!
