Beast of no nation
by WasOnceBlind ini always had a problem with the belief that god is allowing all the suffering in this world to go on just to vindicate his name and prove the devil wrong.
i watched this movie on netflix and i can really see why the atheist movement is growing.
it really does a good job of portraying the suffering in some parts of the world.

Help prevent sons indoctrination.
by WasOnceBlind inok so here is the deal, as some of you who might have read my first post might remember, my parents are jw's while i myself have faded.
i have not told them that i don't believe in the borg and i have done my research and concluded it's a bunch of crap.
the main reason i haven't is because it would break my moms heart and probably send her into a deep depression (she suffers from depression).

FB experience
by WasOnceBlind inso on last saturday, one of my good child hood friends (i consider her like a real sister) who is da posted on facebook that she was going to be having a birthday party for her son.
well another person we grew up with immediately posted a comment about how she should know better then to celebrate bdays and referenced 2 peter 2:20-22 (about being like a dog turning to its own vomit).
i countered with with luke 11:37-49 and didn't hear back.

Is this possible?
by WasOnceBlind infirst of all my parents don't know that i no longer consider my self a jw of believe in the stuff they say (after 10+ years of dissociation it shouldn't be rocket science) and there is no way my dad would ever listen to me if i were to talk to him about tatt and all the contradictions and false prophecies.
however, he is always reading, and he spends a lot of time in the computer using the wt library (the cd one).
i was wondering, if there would be a way to maybe "hack" the program, maybe replace some wt books with copies of something like crisis of conscience.

Got invited to Sundays pep rally
by WasOnceBlind inso my mom who sadly is still in the "truth" asked me if i was going to the circuit assembly this sunday.
she knows i don't go to meetings anymore but usually when she would mention the assemblies i would say yes and go pretty much just for her sake.
however, this time i couldn't bring my self to saying yes, i've been reading "crisis of conscience" and i just can't bring my self to go anymore, even if it's for my mother.

Possible crack in the door that I can expose
by WasOnceBlind inso on monday when i went to pick up my son from my mom i noticed a framed print out of a poem on my moms living room.
it was in spanish but i read it and i was kind of surprised at what it said.
i don't remember it verbatim but i would go as far as to say it had some apostate factors in there.

World court of human rights
by WasOnceBlind inwhile australia is dealing with this pedaphile protection policy that the wt seems to have, how awesome would it be if the world court of human rights was to look into it as well, seeing how the wt is a global organization.

Not looking forward to next Monday.....
by WasOnceBlind inwell my mom asked me if i would be attending the district assembly that is taking place this weekend with them.
i gave her a firm "no", she gave a look of total surprise.
probably because in the past i would say, maybe or if i can and would sometimes show up for half a day.
