10. Read the Bible. (If JayDubs ever knew what effect reading the bible 3 times back to back when there was nothing else to read or think about in Basic Training, it would make their list of apostate literature) Lets just say its very true that you can't find the truth on your own, you NEED the washtowel to interpret it to you to EVER arrive at "the Truth (TM)". Lots of Light in the good book. Bring_the_Light

I've experienced the exact same thing, I bought both books at the same time. My theory is its way more interesting to see faith destroyed than rebuilt. I care why Ray Franz left the Borg, why he still believes in Jesus..... notsomuch. COC was written for us, In Search of Christian Delusion was written for Ray and God. I hope God has a longer attention span than us, because Ray deserves to be heard out. :oP

What do you know about 'CHEMTRAILS'?
by Gill inwhat do you know about chemtrails?.
i understand these are toxic chemical trails left by aeroplanes that are sent up by the governments and not the same as the water vapour contrails.
some believe that in the long run our governments may be intent on ridding the earth of the majority of us by using poison gases or infectious diseases and are getting used to leaving these unusual trails inthe sky.......but i've wondered what they are for a long time and the uk govt has already admitted dropping pesticides on at least one part of the uk as an experiment on the people.. i have googled and u tubed a bit on this concerning information but want to know if there is something to worry about or not?.

whether the trail disappears quickly or not depends completely on the weather. Google "jet trails and Global cooling 911" you should be able to find articles about observed warming during the 911 attacks due to the reduction of 'cooling' from the artificial clouds left by thousands of jets. It will explain where and why the trails dissipate or persist.

I'd like full disclosure of all action taken by the moderators. Don't leave, dude, surrendering to perceived injustice when you're surrounded by litterally thousands of people who understand what freedom of speech and thought doesn't make any sense. The cure to bad or objectionable speech is more speech not censorship. Bring_the_Light

At 3:00 am, I went down to the docks, got naked and posed for photos...
by funkyderek inthere were another 2,700 volunterers taking part in an art installation by renowned nude photographer spencer tunick.
not ideal weather for it, i have to say.
it may be midsummer's day, but standing bollock naked, up to my ankles in sea water in the driving rain it certainly didn't feel like it!

Why do most people not think?
by llbh ini have just had a long conversation with a dear friend, and we came to the same conclusion most people do not really think.. he is 75 and is fizzing with ideas, got a phd at 60. in fractals( no have little idea what they are).
for instance it was and is blindingly obvious to me that the price of oil would drop, it has a little.
the reasons are simple and i am prepared to discuuss that if you want.. i have observed in relationships recently, my own included, that we ignore the what is happening, and often to our, and our familie's long term benefit.

Ex-JWs off the Radar?
by sweet pea inthis week i was contacted by an old friend of mine who was recently disfellowshipped.
i encouraged her to check out jwd for support, advice and friendship.
she had a brief look but said it wasn't really for her, she would rather just "move on and have fun!".

The Internet is the debvil! All it takes is 1computer to get demon and it spreads to all connected machines then into the mouse and keyboard. A Christian shouldn't even touch a computer for fear of getting a demon. Compy = Ouija Board = smurfs

Spirit Directed Organization..How?
by Blueblades incorrect me if i'm not understanding this phrase, 'spirit directed organization'.. my understanding is that the watchtower has recently taught ( someone may remember the exact watchtower that this was taught ) that the anointed and every jehovah's witness has the same holy spirit, no more no less.. nothing special is directing the watchtower society when it comes to understanding the scriptures.
.
why then do they keep on using this phrase, that they are being directed by holy spirit and still use it when asking one of the baptism questions.. if they have no 'special knowledge', how is it that they write talks about being directed by holy spirit especially when it comes to distrct convention talks.. blueblades.

Fractals are the study of how simple mathematical relations, iteratively applied can lead to extremely complex systems. Google-image it. Basically, its the math of pretty scribbles and perhaps the language of god. :oP
