Thanks for letting us know CC! I am sure she'll be fine. I am glad that you got her to the hospital. Hopefully they will find out what it is and be able to help her. I will say a prayer for her! Luv, dj

LET'S GET ONE THING STRAIGHT NOW!
by DJ ini find it utterly wrong as wrong can be to make fun of someone who is claiming to have demonic occurances.
yes, this is an uncomfortable subject and many here are filled with fear when the subject even comes up.
some choose to make fun of the situation while others declare the person to be insane.. i think it is fine to believe whatever you want to believe on this subject.

JT.......I never claimed that scientific versions of 'new light' claims to come from God. The anology merely suggests that on any given day, science claims one thing to be true only to change it the next. One only needs to tune into the local news channels to see this! People here claim that science cannot prove the existence of demonic activity. I am only saying that they cannot prove it to be false either.
Englishman..........i am not sure if you read the thread by Wednesday or not. I felt that she was treated disrepectfully. She did not need to be told that she is crazy. I know of many people who have encountered this sort of thing and it stopped and they are fine. Telling her to go to a mental health professional will cause her to be labeled as a schizophrenic and medicated for the rest of her life. Basically, her life would become totally thrown into an upheaval. She would be labeled for life! I have seen this problem effectively handled without the use of medical science. I am not saying that all people with mental illness should not seek medical attention but she is not an extreme case. I have seen many people freed from this horror. dj

I think it is fine to believe whatever you want to believe on this subject. However, I am in total disagreement that folks deem it necessary to make light of the situation. This is very injurious to the newbie and I am dissapointed that YOU, of all people would be so freekin insensitive and downright rude to someone who is reaching out. You may not believe in it but that does not give you the right to cause further harm to a person who is vulnerable and frightened. Is that how we should handle other subjects. What about scientific evidence???? Science is totally unable to explain plenty of things!!! Science gets their own version of 'new light' every day too!!! Treating others with respect and comfort is something alien to you. You still act like the dubs, for crying out loud. You are entitled to your opinions but you should use your common sense to decide if your opinion will help or harm someone. You sound like elders who demand 2 witnesses for something to be valid.
This is certainly not meant for many on this board, but it is an issue that needs addressing and those folks know who they are. It is unwise at the very least to offer your advice when it could cause further harm to one of your fellow x's. Didn't you learn anything since you left the dubs? Self-righteous, ignorant behavior should be thrown away along with the NWT and Johannes Greber. dj

Wednesday......I'm gonna give this one last shot......here goes:
http://jehovahs-witness.com/forum/thread.aspx?id=35792&site=3 grrrrrrrrrr! DJ
Dawn: I just said the same thing to Valis that you just said to him. It was in chat. Then he left chat and posted that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Unfreekinbelievable disrespect. If science can't prove something then he trusts that it does not exist. That's fine,,,,,,, but to say that someone is engaged in fairy tales just proves that he lives in a bong filled world of blissful ignorance in relation to reality. and he's a teacher, yet....lol!! People like that w/ their narrow minded opinions and heads stuck up their holes ought to learn when to be silent. Oh yea.....and Hyghlander that does ditto for you. I apologize to anyone whom this may offend but I am weary of newbies being treated with disrepect simply because someone cannot relate to their plight. dj

Hi Wednesday,
I am sorry for all of the crap you just had to read. Some people here are content in their ignorance and find their bliss in it. Truth is they are living in a denial induced by the trauma of the the WT. They have rejected the false teachings of the watchtower as I have...but as a result they choose to simply dismiss everything they taught as totally wrong. I went through that phase too. I realized that I had a lot to learn and re-learn and didn't dare give advice or make light of someone else's pain. I think that when someone reads a thread and doesn't have anything worthwhile to contribute to someone who is hurting.....they ought to shut their big mouths and quit acting like they know it all. Grow the hell up!
Wednesday.....please go here and read this. I posted this at a time when I realized that a majority of the folks here are big mouthed know it alls who really need some lessons in courtesy.
www.jehovahs-witness.com/forum/thread.aspx?id=357928&site=3 I understand what your are dealing with and you can e-mail me anytime.
People who are going thru stuff like you are.......is the only reason that I come here. I am sorry that as a newbie, you were treated with so much disrespect. luv, dj [email protected]

Brief Thoughts on 9-11
by Oroborus21 inhowdy,.
at this time as you know there has been much on television and in the media about the terrorist attacks and the tragedy.
there has also been much coverage of the good things that people did.

Hi Eduardo,
I agree with what you said. It made me see people differently too. Helpless, afraid, lonely. The people who suffered that day were just like us. I was moved by the love shown as well. It was such a different scenario than the WT paints of humanity. The other night on Larry King Live on CNN, I heard a song by a singer named Alan Jackson.......this song said it all. Even my husband was impressed. This song is powerful with down to earth soul, capturing the very essence of that day. I am not a fan of country music by a long shot, But this man did an amazing job. Please, listen to it somehow....you'll be glad you did. dj

Dazed,
I keep thinking about you. I felt the same way as you do. It will get better. I left the wt without the internet. I did research in books and prayed. I would also recommend "Crisis of Conscience" to you and " In Search of Christian Freedom."..they are both by Ray Franz. I just finished these! I wish that I knew about these books in 1995 when I began my departure.
Your fears about the big A are normal...( I think that some people think you mean Apostate, I take it to mean Armageaddon, am I right? The demononic stuff....that is something to be concerned with as well. I think you'll find that a large marjority of people here tend to make fun of demons. It is their own way of coping, I guess. I believe that, in large part the demonic problems with the WT (they have many) are a result of their ties to spiritism. I never would have believed that,,,,,but it's true and documented...as in the case of Johannes Greber and John 1:1, etc..........!
You can get copies of these books thru www.freeminds.org Randy is a wonderful help! Don't forget to e-mail me....I listed my address in my 1st post above. Please put something in the subject line that I'll recognize......like....jw or xjw? Otherwise, I may delete you by mistake. I get some trashy e-mails. OK?
I would also highly recommend books by David Reed such as, Jehovah's Witnesses Subject by Subject and another called Verse by Verse. These were a tremendous help to me! Most of all, don't forget to pray for guidance in seeing the real truth...which is not the WT but it is Jesus!! dj

Hi Dazed,
Believe me, I know what your'e feeling. You are going thru the same thing that I did and many others here. I do not come here much because for me, there are too many atheists, etc. I would love to chat with you and lend an ear if you'd like. I too, was raised a JW and my family is still in it. I am not anymore and I am married with 2 children. I live in PA. I have a wonderful, supportive husband. I have been away from the Watchtower teachings since 1995-96. You are doing the right thing for yourself and your children!! These steps that you take now are crucial. Don't be discouraged about the TIME it takes to go thru this!! It takes time and patience and prayers. I would be honored to help you take the first steps and be here for you. You can e-mail me [email protected].....I know that you have tons of questions and need answers! I'd be glad to help. Love, DJ
P.S. It is a long hard road ahead......but it is worth every minute.
