  Watchman Nee: "According to the teaching of the Bible and the experience of believers, the human spirit can be said to comprise three parts; or, to put it another way, one can say it has three main functions. These are conscience, intuition and communion."

  Enter the Power Couple, assume the position .

  2. friends

  i think there has always been your average garden variety pioneer couples and mr and mrs cobe and back in the day these tended to be a little bit dorky the wife -homely, the husband -fatherly, they shopped at thrift stores and lived in someone elses garage.

  but as competition for a slice of the power pie has ramped up over the years what we have now seems to be a whole new ball game.

  does ultimate power lie with the men, the "family heads"?

  Welcome sparrowdown!

  Boy have the Watchtower done you a favour and shot themselves in the foot at the same time.

  Please keep committing the scandalous crimes of thinking, speaking, reading, writing and reasoning.

  I like your posts.

  But your last paragraph in the OP above...

  Priceless, sad and true all at once.

  Being an Atheist Is Bad For Your Health

  by Space Madness in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i stopped believing in god in july 2013. in the first 3 months or so i felt liberated and relieved that i can live my life anyway i wanted without worrying about an invisible being watching my every move.

  i also felt slightly superior that i was able to figure out that god isn't real while the majority of mankind continued to be fooled.

  atfer the feelings of excitment statrted to wear off, i started to become more depressed and empty.

  @Space Madness.

  Recently I was contemplating different frameworks for interpreting the Bible.

  I came up with three.

  Religious.

  Atheist.

  Spiritual.

  Having tried the first two, what are your thoughts on the latter?

  Greetings

  ALL JW's to be at the meeting this week...

  by Newly Enlightened in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  .

  we asked this person if it could be aqbout the terminology change and they said that was already read last week...... we remember the last time they did this.

  got everyone all excited thinking the big "a" was coming and all it was about, was the literature would now be donated instead of charging for it.. .

  2. friends

  i am a bit up and down due to my bipolar.still feeling a bit yucky, angry and sad due to the borg etc.i didn't go to church today but at least i haven't got anyone asking me where i was, or i would feel better if i'd gone to the meeting, blah blah blah.. my relationship with god is between the 2 of us and it's not open to speculation or analysis from anyone.. i stayed in bed this morning with coffee and the papers.

  ace!!!
