Y It was a public relations stunt pulled off by the Communist Chinese Dictatorship intended to divert attention from the protests over Tibet, and garner world sympathy to their corrupt regime, hoping someone will show up for the Olympics. Well maybe they didn't "do" it, but those particular 10,000 Chinese are more valuable than the millions they could have killed other ways to further their control. (yeah, I'm not a big fan of non-democratic government, the dub club did it to me, grr.)

What's Your MAIN Reason For Not Believing In "The Truth"?
by minimus inmy mother had this discussion yesterday.
basically, my main argument was that if the fds gets jehovah's holy spirit and their "food" is "the truth", yet they always are correcting themselves, how can anyone in all fairness believe it's "the truth"??
you can't show scripturally why organ transplants are a form of cannibalism and clearly a disfellowshipping offense and a couple of years later after possible disfellowshippings or death, and then believe jehovah god changed his view suddenly.

I'm having the most amazing ego trip seeing all these OLD people talk about how they "figured out" it wasn't true.
I started realizing something was wrong at about age 9, fully digested the Red Pill by age 13. That left almost 5 years of living captive with a free mind. I don't know if that was good or bad for me. You generally want to get the hell out of dodge as soon as you are ejected from the Matrix, rather than shivering in the goopy stuff, waiting for your ride.

What's the BEST thing about being "out" of the "truth"?
by B_Deserter infor me, it's having friends that i don't have to hide my lack of meeting attendance/service from.
it's amazing how they teach you that only jws can be your real friends, but in reality, it's all contingent upon your religious "performance.
" sure, if you're not going to meetings, they'll try to be "friends," by encouraging you to go back.

fornication
Indeed. Even non/pre-fornicating parts of dating are better, because "what it could lead to" is no longer something to be feared.

Oh and my vote is for BLAZE OF GLORY. Get angry, throw things, tell them that they cannot control your mind, Jesus wouldn't use emotional blackmail, and the Governing Body is a tool of Satan.
There could be consequences to taking my advice that you may need to weigh against the benefits.

On the PO meeting issue, you can just indicate you must have met someone who "you thought" was the PO, but oops mistaken.
I'M SCREWED
Bah! no you're NEVER screwed in this organization. You just have a choice. Do you use this opportunity to stick to your guns and go down in a blaze of glory, or do you act strategically repentful. You don't need an excuse, if you want to stay on the down low, just act ashamed, say you don't know why you've become so spurratic in your attendance. Say something about not knowing enough people, not feeling as welcome as you did in the past, place the blame on the dub club (<----woo! my first use, this means "congregation")
Basic choice, blaze of glory, or lie your britches off. The Borg has left you a binary option. Make your choice. The most important part of it is coming back to JWD to tell us all about it.

I'm new here, so I'm very sorry if I step on toes suggesting a change to established lingo.... but what do you guys think of:
"Filthful and Disgraced Slavekeeper" ?
It just seems to roll off my mental tongue better. Like "Disgraceful" is supposed to be an adverb, right? (modifying a verb), here we are trying to describe a noun (should use a adjective). For instance they are not the Discreteful therefore they should not be the Disgraceful. They're the Discrete, so they are the Disgraced.
I think the reference to SlaveKEEPER highlights the cult control we all love to hate where as SlaveBUGGER just sounds like random grumbling in place of a swear (or perhaps some reference to the FDS "bugging people?).
My way is a more grammatically correct and precise means to express hate and disgust toward the Filthful and Disgraced Slavekeeper. QED

Even jesus wept when lazarus died and he knew he could raise him from the dead , it's the feeling of losing something that can't be replaced by you, I think .An empty spot in your life that won't be filled until later sometime and nobody can say exactly when .IMO
Yeah, It doesn't surprise me at all that Jesus doesn't believe his own bullshit........

This should have been in there to help me work out problems of my "youth":
"If you've intellectually settled that "the Truth" is a crock of steaming bullshit, but you've got a few more years before you can get the F*ck out of the Kingdom Hell, should I go down in a blaze of glory, or wait it out and just wander away to freedom?"
Answer that works: While going down in a blaze of glory would be emotionally satisfying, as per our other advice, even if Gods people can't keep you forever, your participation as a liar, dutifully biting your tongue for purposes of supporting the delusions of your fellow brothers and sisters for as many years as you can or until you can get the F-out, is the next best thing to having a Borg drone for life. If you you can't give Jehovah your life, give him a few years of half-assed compliance, surely Jehovah will appreciate such contributions.
