the few reviews i read were mostly about how long it was taking amazon to provide the app for kindle... jws were threatening to ditch their kindle and buy ipads instead.

then there are the reviews like "finally!

i can study god's true word on my kindle fire!

Yea most of them seemed like a review of the literature not of the app.

There were a few 4 star giving soon to be apostates though....

What a barbaric shameful waist of 4,000 years. It''s time to reach our potential.

If there is a god he (or she) is probaby just a mad about that as you are.

Double standard of JWs

by exWTslave in

jws shun many practices like birthday citing their pagan/evil-spirit connection.

if they are honest with their claim, they wil have to leave this world altogether:.

1) in their bethels, brothers should compulsorily wear a neck-tie, which is actually a phallic symbol!.

While I agree with you about the inconsistencies, the site about Thomas Edison is the writers opinion on a story about Edison that may or may not even be true.

I believe Edison used his naps to tap into the wisdom of his intuition. He used these "naps" to tap into the mind of God.

I have heard that phenomenon referred to as image streaming. It happens to me all the time even when I'm awake. I just have to close my eyes and pay attention. The closest I can compare them to is an animated gif. None of mine seem particularly useful. Guess I'll have to pay attenion more when it happens.

Here is a site i found on the subject.

I have often wondered if that is where hallucinations come from when you are on hallucinogenic drugs.

How Do You Come to Terms with Being Just One of the 7 Billion?

being a jw makes one feel special, no doubt.

when i found out ttatt i realized i'm not special at all.

i'm just one of the other 7 billion human beings who will live and die being nobody, the world will forget about them (and i'm not talking about relatives and friend), they didn't make anything special in their life, they didn't change the course of history, were not famous nor rich, didn't invent facebook, google or anything awesome, didn't have an article published in newscientist, had no imdb profil, not even a wiki page, didn't write a book etc.

Learning TTATT puts you way ahead not behind.

The only thing holding you back is your "that's not gonna happen" attitude.

If you have a "I know it's going to happen" attitude you will be on the look out for opportunties and many will come along.

I like this quote and it seems fitting.

“Whether you think you can, or you think you can't--you're right.”

what is wrong with WT's "--Will not pass AWAY--" write-ups?

by prologos in

"-- this generation will not pass away until all these things occur--" jesus in math.

24. what are these things?

disasters bigger than the flood?

I think they are trying to obfuscate things until the become so incomprehensible that nobody understands them. Everyone just assumes that the next guy must understand it but they have been trained not to ask so they just accept it.

If they are saying the anointed will pass away before the big A, I wonder if it is to curtail rogue partakers. Seems like that could backfire

Just remember, if the lifeguards tell you not to go swimming because it isn't safe, don't let the pack of 8 year old kids playing in the waves fool you or you're gonna get drilled!
