^^^ The above post was written when me and a mate had a joint and decided to do some creative writing.

I wrote the above while my mate wrote something else.

What I wrote is inspired by the film Let The Right One In and by the Beatles song Within You Without You.

That was the idea: pick a film and a song you love and just write something based on that.

I thought what I wrote was pretty cool so I went back and wrote two more verses, making a poem.

******************************************************************

The greasy pillow disgusts her.

All her puzzles have been done.

The stale, sour milk was never touched.

The bread is not needed, but she must eat.

All alone for so long, she shuts her apartment door and steps outside into the chill night air.

If they only knew.

He rinses out the pissball.

School is over, and it was a tough one today.

He walks straight to his room, ignoring his mum.

He finishes the sweets he swiped and opens his scrapbook.

His thoughts turn dark and settle upon Jonny and Micke.

If they only knew.

He tried to part the cold, white blanket with frozen fingers.

Shivering now, his clear blue eyes focused on her pale, soft skin, her butterknife cheek.

The city of lights in her eyes.

If they only knew.

All was quiet in the inky blackness, the stars twinkled faintly.

The two thin figures faded into the night.

Friendship and love will save the world from disturbing fate.

If they only knew.

Confirmation that religion is dying.

by Phizzy in

this is from a site called "atheist republic" :.

" the phenomenon of "nones" — individuals who claim no religious affiliation — is rapidly reshaping america's religious landscape.

recent surveys by the associated press-norc center for public affairs research indicate that 30% of u.s. adults identify as nonreligious.

I've known a couple of people yearning for 'Christian values' in a reaction against the so called 'woke' agenda - yes, quite a lot of people feel this way.

*I sometimes do.

Whether or not they will actually join organised religion or even believe in God is difficult to say ...

*When I see drag queens half-naked in schools I sometimes want to ask Jehovah to give us another flood

I echo what Jan said.

Religion is declining to some degree in the west.

But it's on the rise elsewhere, including among British Muslims.

(Islam is the fastest growing religion in the UK.)

Look at Hamas fighters and supporters - like ISIS nutjobs, they believe that jihad against innocent Israeli citizens is God's work.

Saudi Arabia and Iran have Sharia incorporated into their laws, too.

Anyone up-to-date on this?

Is he still in prison (where I believe he should remain for many years to come!), or is he back out in the community, living life as an active JW?

When did you see realise James Lloyd Evans was a wrongun?

by usualusername1 in

i remember him on this site when he was called cedars and had jw survey.. straightaway i noticed he could not accept suggestions.. the time i knew he was dangerous was when his group aawa added people to their fb group without their permission and were outed.. he refused to close the fb page (whilst celebrating 1300 members joining in a few days).

one member complained and was subsequently disfellowshipped, which could easily have been avoided.. three week's after launching, the fb page was closed down.

from that moment i knew james lloyd evans was dangerous.. when did you realise he not good?.

I used to be a lurker before I joined and started posting, and I remember reading threads with posts by John Cedars.

My first impressions of him were that he was articulate and knowledgeable on JW issues. I still think this to some degree today.

Then, I started to notice how he responded to people who disagreed with his opinions or who tried to post counter-arguments. He was pretty catty in response. I didn't know John Cedars was Lloyd Evans for some time.

I guess I properly realised he was a wrong un when he left the forum over the fallout from the AAWA and the potential outing of its supporters.

How he has reacted and dealt with the current sex workers issue is entirely consistent with the man's character.

There are plenty of Lloyd Evanses out in the world and there's nothing we can do about it.

Mandated Shunning is a Crime

by Lee Marsh in

mandated shunning is on the rise around the world with devastating effects on millions of people.

shunning that is mandated by organized groups to its members is a form of both physical and psychological violence against those people being shunned and cut off from their family and life-long relationships.

mandated shunning means that the shunning is ordered from the top down.

LoveUniHateExams

how you treat people who don't want to follow your rules or don't agree with them is a whole other story - I agree it's important how people who leave should be treated, and shunning is bad.

But is legislation the best answer?

Isn't there a better way of dealing with the problem?
