  There is much wisdom in the "meme."

  Keywords: Peace and Conflict.

  Just like in Poker, you gotta know when to "hold 'em" and when to "fold 'em."

  Retreat is a valid military tactic which is too little utilized.

  S-i-a-r-2,
  

  The event must have been quite good! Impressive line-up on the page you referenced.

  Hopefully you managed to get a word in about The Cult and the necessity to avoid it like the plague.

  Where in the bible does it say that the governments will turn on the religions. Like the Dubs always say this will happen

  by goingthruthemotions in

  i have not been here in a while, just trying to move on with my life all the while dealing with a very pimi brainwashed wife.. so the other day she started saying that we will have to go our own ways when things get worse with this world.

  she has said this before because she believes that the government will turn on religion and the great and powerful wizards (guardians of doctrine g.o.d.

  ) will call everyone and tell them where to go.. thank god, (no pun intended) i have been out of the loop for such a long time.

  The prophecies regarding Babylon, Babylon the Great and The Mark of the Beast. Since the WTBorg Cult Inc. sells itself to the unwary by claiming to be The Chosen, in their eyes they will be directing traffic when things go critical at some point in the future. Needless to say, they'll be in for a very rude awakening when that time comes...

  Or "loose" when "lose" is meant.

  The American Embrace of Mediocrity (aka state sanctioned dumbing down of the population) has been a smashing success. The "language" is changing as all languages do in time. The uneducated are now a great majority.

  JW gatherings

  by Jules Saturn in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  one of the things i don’t like about witness gatherings is the way everything you have to do or say has to be witness related.

  the songs played at a party couldn’t be played if the lyrical content was “worldly”, and also hearing the same phrases.

  a conversation about something in the news and someone will say “well, we’re living in the last days” or “we’re in this wicked system of things, everything is horrible”.

  While I was associating with the witnesses I found their unique "lingo" to be strange. I never got into the habit of addressing the others as "brother" or "sister;" I always just used their names when speaking with them. I guess I was a bit of a non-conformist from the very beginning. I was never criticized for failing to talk like them but that was back in the late '50s. I suppose The Cult's controls have gotten much tighter since then in order to be considered a member in "good standing."

  JW Baptism Anullment

  has anyone ever successfully annulled their jw baptism?

  especially if they were very young when baptised?.

  Since the WTBorg Cult Inc. rite of baptism is in essence a Corporation Ritual you'd first have to obtain from the Corporation their Legal Definition of Baptism with its Terms and Conditions. The WTBorg Cult Inc. Legal Department should be able to provide such clarification.

  If annulment or revocation is possible then all records of such baptism retained by the Corporation should be destroyed and rendered non-existent.

  Whether The Cult would in fact perform such a cleansing is debatable. The whole operation may be fraudulent.

  Does anyone think it strange that we permit WTBorg Cult Inc. Doctrine deter us from doing what any "normal" person would consider to be imperative?

  But, then again, we generally don't realize that we're indoctrinated to be Cult Obedient until we ourselves wake up.

  In my own case opposition from family and school teachers was boldly delivered. While the arguments didn't initially register as I lacked experience with The Cult, but in time after seeing how The Cult really operates, they did. I never forgot and it turned out in the end that all who were opposed to my associating with the witnesses were correct. I'll thank them in our next life...

  question of the day does a religious org have the right to hold confidential info on one of its members

  Good question. In view of the fact that the United States of America and its Political Subdivisions exists today as a "religion" the answer would be apparently so. The U.S. gov't. monitoring agencies capture and retain virtually every detail about the existence of each of the inhabitants of the nation. Since virtually all religions which exist within America are today corporations, as is the U.S. Gov't., the abilities to maintain files on membership is probably legit.

  There is undoubtedly more to the question though; are there any guidelines on how the info can be utilized or distributed?

  Hopefully, the decision will be temporary. There is hope that he'll awaken once he's been in The Cult for enough time to experience its weirdness. More than likely his NFL earnings are dispensed as an Annuity which should afford him a very comfortable lifestyle for many years to come.

  When the Epiphany occurs while in the depths of deep gloom and darkness it can be frightening. Monica will be temporarily confused, as we all were, but as she continues her search for Real Truth she will be rewarded and she will be given comfort and comprehension. What a truly remarkable woman.
