family issues getting better
by jwbot infor those that remember what i posted about my sister...i was really worried for her after a bit.
this "new" guy (twice her age) moves quickly into her life and she finds herself taking care of him.
she wanted him to fly back to england because it became obvious to her that he was insane but he kept threatening to kill himself.

Study on Social Exclusion / Pain Response
by Scully ini saw a report on the news this morning about a social psychology research study done by dr. matthew lieberman at ucla regarding the physical effects that occur as a result of social exclusion (ie, shunning).
the study used mri images of the brain to show changes in brain activity.
the findings strongly suggest that people's feelings can really get "hurt" - social exclusion resulted in increased brain activity in the same areas of the brain that respond to and register physical pain.

Meeting up with another X dub..........plenty of preaching work to do!
by BLISSISIGNORANCE inhi all.....................just to let you know that i'm very excited about meeting with another friend from my dub days.. a couple of weeks ago i looked her up in the phone book and rang, out of the blue.
she sounded very hesitant to talk to me, maybe just confused.
i jumped right in and said i wasn't going to meetings anymore so i had plenty of time to catch up with long lost friends.

Jw's persecution complex
by AK - Jeff indid you ever notice the repeated emphasis on the 'proof' that jw's were god's chosen people, due to the depth of persecution by the 'devil's hoards'?.
i never did see it - in 30 years i never saw it - i always wondered how the organization could, with any journalistic dignity - print articles that used the persecution of jw's in nazi germany as such proof, while ignoring the death of 6,000,000 jews!
some historians believe that perhaps 1500 or 2000 of jehovah's witnesses died in the concentration camps.
