There is no Holy Spirit.

I lead a double life. I post on apostate web sites, swear like a sailor, covertly subvert the watchtower religion and do many other things I'd rather not mention.

I was asked to say a prayer at the meeting. Lol.

There is no Holy Spirit.

Wake Me Up Before You Jo-Ho

And cue random poster to repent and report you in three, two, one...

It's true Hoser, there is no Holy Spirit--at least not anything like what we were taught by the JW religion.

I would like to suggest that you are squandering this knowledge living a "double life" and pretending to believe things which you obviously do not.

How about trying an authentic life?

By the way, living authentically does not require giving up swearing or divulging any other of your secret pleasures! ... LOL

Im not pretending to believe anything. I know it's all a lie. Bullshit as we call it in these parts. I stay in good standing for selfish reasons and along the way I have helped many of my loved ones wake up which would not have happened if I were an outsider.

Well, Hoser. It sounds like you're making good use of what you yourself call "a double-life."

I'm just suggesting that there is actually something better. That, at least, is how it turned out for me. I also used to rationalize and justify to myself why I would "stay in good standing." My reasons were really, really good ... to me, at the time.

Sorry if that sounds self-righteous. That's the last thing I would want to be. I'm just sharing my experience.

Keep us posted!
