Why should I not judge "God" harshly?
by gubberningbody inpulling rank, and saying: "because i'm god", doesn't cut it.. .
it doesn't cut it to say: "it's your fault.
", because you haven't proved that.. if it was my own individual "fault", then why is it everyone on planet earth hasn't figured that out?.

Pat Condell Video
by imissmaine ini'm not sure if many of you are familiar with pat condell.
he can be pretty controversial and interesting, depending on the subject.
i see that he has been mentioned a few times in the past on this site, but nothing overly in-depth.. i was curious to see what people think about his latest video: http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=5df_1209122305.

Poetry and healing philosophy
by thecrushed ini wrote these 2 poems soon after i found out that i had been under mind ctrl all my life along with my family as far back as i can remember.
i hope this gives someone solace because of its message of loving thru the pain.
hate can be a consuming thing and left unchecked can destroy us and everyone around us.

Can Elders encourage disfellowshiped people?
by Pitchess Co-Gen inok i've had three elders from other halls come encourage me to come back ( been disfellowshiped for year and a half now), but none of the elders in my home congregation would even look at me when i vist.
i asked my old p.o can he encourage me and he said i won't do that, when three other elders encouraged me to come back.. .
my question is was my p.o right are was he just being a jerk..

True Christianity - driven by organization?
by gutted ini've been reading in search of christian freedom chapter 3 and i'm quite fascinated at ray's take on how the congregation was actually set up in the 1st century.
i never knew that a "governing body" only convened one time in jerusalem to discuss the circumcision issue, and was not mentioned prior or after this.
also paul went many years without heading to jerusalem for "instruction" but had the antioch congregation as his home-base.

Memories of My Childhood
by THE GLADIATOR inwith a full-time job, his responsibilities as a servant, endless door-to-door work, a young family and a house to renovate, fathers nervous energy found an outlet in his constant movement.
he only seemed to sit down to eat or study one of the many watchtower publications that now filled a whole bookcase.. do you have to do that?
why dont you sit down, youll wear the carpet out, mother complained, as he paced up and down the small room.. this was no ordinary carpet.

Socrates and Jesus Christ (and the WTS) Part 11
by quietlyleaving ini think you guys might find this interesting.
please feel free to disagree.
an idea running through plato's thought and plato's socrates is that "nobody does wrong intentionally".
