Some Thoughts... I'm new, this is THERAPUTIC for me... read if you'd like
by bbdodger inin a cult, the society of the cult tries everything in their power to keep one in that society, as well as keeping one ignorant of any information that would sever the guise of legitimacy.
given a version of the bible, not being able to read any other version of the bible is just one example of this kind of inflicted ignorance.
in a cult, it's impossible to get out without a fight.

I'm supposed to live to see 74, and my real age is 26, which matches my current age, so I'm on target.

THOSE WHO ARENT JEHOVAH WITNESSES
by the333 inthose who aren't in the truth i feel much pity for you.
all of you are filled with much hatred and anger that all you can do is blast out of your stupid mouths horrible things about the one true religion.
i feel sorry for you that you will not have ever lasting life.

Hey 333,
Shouldn't you be out in service??? Or studying some of that "new light"??? Maybe there's a congregation picnic to attend? I'm sure there's "plenty to do in the work of the lord". Why should you be hanging out here with 'unrepentant sinners'? After all we're drunkards, revilers, fornicators, idolators, having no natural affection, and all that other horse shit they tell you.

I was in college, just half way through my second year. I was on a break from classes and eating breakfast in the cafeteria with some professors and some class mates. Then we saw the breaking reports. Classes were cancelled, I called in for work, I called my wife (now ex), and told her to rush home because Armageddon was starting. I sat in front of the TV terrified, watching it all. I bought gas, I prayed, I called all my family, I was really worried about dying at Armageddon, because I had not been a very good l'il dub. I was also worried about "the draft" restarting, and concerned about getting sent to prison for not going. 9/11 will never be forgotten by me. Living in the midwest, it was like it almost wasn't "real", but there was a sickening feeling every place I went. My grandma, the ever loyal dub, was excited, saying this was the end, I know many local dubs speculated that it was starting. Most of the young men, were scared to death about the prospect of getting "drafted" or getting man-raped in prison.

I'd make it a place where you can go and drink a cold adult beverage, watch a game, eat sausage sandwiches or BBQ, have male bonding, and be able to leer at females, watch a live band, and discuss things ranging from politics to the Family Guy. Our idol would be Homer Simpson.

Its very much a standard, but Fred McDowell is the first and also definitive version of the song. A couple of the local blues bands do this song too, one of them does a really great version.

Sitting at a District Convention hearing about the "generations change" in the mid 90's, my best friend and I looked at each other, and knew our whole family had been duped, yet we could do nothing about it. He quit shortly after, and I never took it seriously after that. I think I was 15 or 16, and every time that I asked about that, I was basically told that we weren't allowed to question "new light". Why I hung around another 10 years? Well I love my family, plain and simple.

Sorry I just meant to do that if you decide to go meet with the elders... I'd love to see their shocked looks. Just like I wear different stuff when I'm onstage to attract people's attention.
