I enjoy the videos, too. The time it takes to manage all they do is quite commendable. I have only watched a handful of their videos but to me they seem to be having fun together while sharing the info.

This prison I was in

Clutched me deep into my soul

Taunted me, controlled me

Haunted me...owned me

But now I am free

Like a flower blossoming

On a warm spring day

The breeze opens my mind.

I see now those prison gates

They were all in my head

I trusted, I believed

But now I know I was misled

It's so hard to let go

When you think your losing life

When you think it's Satan's world out there

When shunning is your price...

But oh the wonders of this world

Precious moments have been lost

But here now, I am free!

I no longer see the devil

Lurking with those "worldly" friends

To judge others, to fear I no longer feel

I love all and care instead

My heart has been opened.

Beating strong, I am free!

Okay, that's all I got right now. Draft one - I Am Free

It's 2am, I apologize for any 2am-isms.

@designs lol

Would these be the same ones who so vigorously oppose the government monitoring communications etc? I almost didn't join this convo in this way because people get very...er...emotional. But oh well. There are so many things that go on that the average Joe citizen has no idea occurs. They are working hard out there to stop terrorism, both foreign and domestic.

All this crap going on...not Obama's fault. Is he a perfect president? Well, is there really such a thing as a perfect president? It is always easy to judge from the peanut gallery, when you don't know what is going on behind the scenes. There are decisions made, resources deployed, avenues taken that we don't know about. And we don't need to know. Why? Because people flip out, cry foul, and more without even understanding all the facts. And Obama isn't the only one making the decisions.

Earlier in Obama's presidency, there was a crisis, I think it was the oil spill in the gulf. I would listen to the talking heads on my satellite radio during my work commute. In the days after the oil spill, said talking heads (i can't remember who but will try to remember) went on and on about how Obama was weak because he wasn't doing anything to hold them accountable, that he needed to step in a do something, fine them, etc. People were calling in going on and on about it, how Obama wasn't taking action. Well, guess what?!?! News came out the he did take action! He had been working on it to determine what to do. So they got fined, and more. So what do those SAME PEOPLE SAY?!?! Suddenly it turned to them complaining that Obama had no right, Obama shouldn't have gotten involved, the Government has no place in the private sector, etc. Etc.

WTF?

I stopped listening to that talk show immediately. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

As others have said, there is the ability to provide review and opinion etc. And cite the source. They are intimidating, but there are limits to what they can actually enforce.

What Happened to the Religion I Left in 1995?
by JoshJeffries in
1. jw
2. friends
josh here, new to the board.

glad to know this site is here.. i would not be writing this if it were not 2014. i was a ministerial servant and regular pioneer who left the jehovahs witnesses back in 1995/96, around that time.

i left suddenly, didnt fade away, just left when something clicked one day in my head during the morning shower and made me realize this religion wasnt true.

The New NWT also has several chapters removed as well without anyone noticing...crazy stuff!

PART TWO of AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE BY A PRACTICING JEHOVAH'S WITNESS
by Sparks in
1. jw
2. friends
while you are sitting there reading this, there are literally hundreds of thousands of young males and females all over the world [ mostly in america / canada and england] sitting in their grotty little smelly bedrooms or flats, designing computer viruses that they will up-load onto web-sites to cause anonymous innocent peoples computers to malfunction.

these creeps spend literally weeks,months or even years hoping to make a computer viruses that will get into peoples computer bios to completely destroy their computers.

they never see the peoples anger, frustration and distress.... the damage can cost each person about 1,000 [ $1,660.74 ] or more to replace a basic new laptop or tower.
HeyThere

My goodness this post is so sad. This person is obviously very upset and not thinking clearly...the post was a ramble going all over the place. He is losing his religion, and apparently fighting like heck to hold onto it. He is broken.
