  6. In a nutshell Though the steel fingers of coercion make themselves felt everywhere and great emphasis is placed on mechanical drill [mindless repetition of verses, theological ideas], the pious phrases and fervent propaganda give to coercion a semblance of persuasion, and to habit a semblance of spontaneity.” I realized into the 3rd year in TWI everyone sounded very much the same. Stepford Wives of Cults! It is like a disease and if the CDC could put a label on this and warn people it may save lives physically,emotionally and spiritually.
  7. Like breaking a curse from candy coated bitter sweet satanism.
  8. I was watching a show on Special Forces and there training of those who make it and those who do not. Reminding me of the whole Way Fantasyland ,how we are God's Best, and Yada yada yada,the hoops we jump through from day 1 around a Way meeting. First it is the class .....the green cards//sign it make a committiment and it never ever stops! When it all came down to it and I felt so bad cause I did not could not would not any longer be a part of this "special team called The Way International" and felt I had failed God!!! I wish I could have forseen down the road how GOD was guiding me OUT of The Way International! Yes! God knew my heart and what I could not see and when I was basically wanting to die in the arms of Jesus for (feeling like I had betrayed Him as Judas with a kiss for leaving this "special elite group of People )running a buisness.(mind you) This Biblical Reseach was a joke! Like ....watching Dora the Explorer to learn Spanish but to communicate as a linquist on the battlefield in a life and death situation. Just as I thought God was bringing people to show me The Way! God was putting signs left and right during my whole journey trying to show me Truth...and that The Way International was going round and round in a circle chasing there own tail! The battlefiled was the mind and the "renewed mind" was the key,and if I was a horse they would have just put frickin BLINDERS on me. Special little headgames! All this taken on some big board game in the mind of Weirwille I bet this sick fother mucker got a kick outta telling people "Your The Best"
  9. Thanks Shellon(ain't that the truth! Like a Hamgergur press) :blink: and it is very important to get a mamogram ,some of the people in this video are relatives of people lost to breast cancer like the janitor. More on that story somewhere I will go look.

    Feliz Navida

    T'was the night before Christmas and all through la casa Not a creature was stirring, only the masa. Mama making tamales con mucho cuidado In hopes old Santa would feel obligado To bring all the hijos, both buenos y malos A nice batch of dulces and other regalos Mis hermanos and I went to sleep in our camas Some in calsones, some in piyamas Cuando out in the yard I heard un gran grito That I jumped to my feet like a frightened cabrito And who in the world do you think que era? El mero mero with his venados aya afuera Santa Claus in a sleigh with a big sombrero Came dashing along like a little bombero I watched as they came, and this little fat hombre Was shouting and whistling, and calling by nombre 'Ay PEPE, AY JESSE, AY CUCA, AY BETO AY PANCHO, AY CHATO, CHUY Y NETO!' Then standing straight up, with his hands on his pecho, He flew to the top of our very own techo With his round little belly like a bowl of jalea He struggled to squeeze down our old chimenea Then huffing and puffing, and a little cansado He picked up a bag that looked so pesado He filled all the stockings with lovely regalos For none of the hijos had been very malos Then chuckling aloud, seeming very contento He turned like a flash and was gone like the viento As I heard him exclaim and this is verdad, 'MERRY CHRISTMAS A TODOS! FELIZ NAVIDAD!'

    Christmas Music

    I like Christmas Music (I like Kathy Matea version of Mary did you know the best) but I like Natalie Cole too. <object width="445" height="364"><param name="movie" value=" name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src=" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="445" height="364"></embed></object>
  14. Jeff thank you! The word "piggish"is so appropiate for we did cast our pearls before swine!
  15. They said that he was not spiritually at my level,he didn't have enough classes yet. (oh Brother!)and that ....ed me off as it would anyone in there right mind(not renewed mind!) what kinda people tell other people you can not marry someone. So....I left. I don't need this crap and began to see clearly this was a big market for selling classes. In August 1982 that year we made a vow in marriage.before God in a Church far away from The Way International. We are still together and it is almost 2010. We never went back to The Way International.
  16. The thing about being a Military Wow was that we were always working full time,and our schedules varied,sometimes we would be in the field,or working at night. The balance was good for me ,getting more into the world and real life not so much with just Way people. The Way was not my priority anymore so much as the Army was and my wow brothers we great! I didn't have a car so one of them would always make sure I was on time for PT and sometime I would have to walk over to Womack Army Hospital where my Wow brother who was Major Podiatrist (I will just call him that name)and wait til he got off work from seeing alot of Paratroopers with leg injuries! But we did what we could for (The Ministry ) and we thought we were called to Serve) On Sundays we all would meet together(if possible with the all women twig)and they always had loads of Army guys over there. My fiance and I broke up(it just didn't work out)I was sponsering 2 people in the Way Corp doing the ABS thing and felt more balanced. Everything was going well. I met a Paratrooper. He wanted to take the class but never had time too because of his schedule so I was told to let him take the class at my house in a quiet room. He took most of the class and then had to go to the field or something but he was not so much into all the hoopla of the organization. He was my "babe" later on turned into a relationship and we wanted to get married. We asked the Leadership in that area about it and they said NO! :o What! I was not really asking permission but for a ceremoney! Red Flags Appeared
  17. AIT was at Fort Jackson for me also I was a 76Y10(That is a Supply Specialist)a lot like RETAIL but BIG HUGE ARMY STUFF everything from Pencils to Tanks. I was made a squad leader,my drill sergent loved that I followed orders so well(what cult follower isn't use to that!)Graduated from that and I wanted to go Airborne. My boyfriend who was a Pediatric Cardiologist at Long Island Jewish Medical Center NY became my fiance and I don't know how the hell we were gonna work that out living in differant states . But he was a Believer so it must be Gods Will. :blink: (I did not go to Europe as planned but to Fort Bragg North Carolina) I settled into my barracks and got a hold of the other Military Wows at Fort Bragg(not right away though before I had to move in and get back into Wow mode ) So....I made the call to International told them where I was and before you knew it there was a car for me. I was to move off base with my new Wow Family(3 Wow brothers in uniform! Nice.)Although I liked the Barracks too and when I saw a tv it was weird cause I hadn't seen a tv in YEARS! Anyhoo...there we 5 Wow sisters living in another house(civilians)and since I was Military I got assigned to live with the Men. Just lucky I guess.
  18. Fort Jackson, South Carolina (Alpha Company.) My Basic survival skills,attention to detail. No Problem. I actually had a good time and enjoyed being around non believers and just working people but my Army buddies called me "The Preacher". I was speaking the word but not telling anyone about The Way International and people were listening (also they couldn't go anywhere either) It is amazing what being away from other Way people did for me,I didn't have to do all the lets run a class but I did alot of "witnessing" about Jesus Christ. You could find me up reading my bible at 4am dressed and ready for the day,I felt stronger and closer to God during those 6 weeks of my life then ever before.
  19. Long Island New York Way Home (that was a LAID back place.) Very easy going and friendly I knew I was there to relax and get ready for the Army,that was my goal now to just focus on being not so hyper on selling the bible class thing. Why did everyone have to take that PFAL Class! Well...that's another story. Got a job at Kodak Labs ,did alot of bike riding on the boardwalk and not so much reading the bible(which was a good thing for me at the time) and also got a new boyfriend!(a believer ofcourse) Thought life was pretty good there for a while but I wanted to become a Military Wow since I was going into the Army and back into The Way. Rock of Ages came that year and I got "commissioned" my little name tag and made that Vow (one more time!)
  20. Yes,it is like Lets Make a Deal with God! Then you get the donkey behind curtain #2 and a Helmet full of bull.... you can't take off your head!
  21. Waiting...is what changed us. We ended up at a Sunrise sevice on Easter with some Way of Delaware people. Not wanting to be IN (on the field)just taking a back seat in Way land suited me fine.(but I don't think TWI had back seats it was full blown SERVICE to move The (Class) My friend went back to Long Island before her Basic Training started before the week was over there she told me she was not going to go in the Army and had a messed up knee. I went to visit my old x fiance in NYC,he had dropped out of 11th Corp that year too. He was real stand offish and guarded and dissapointed in himself,we were differant people now we had changed within less than 2 years from the happy go lucky (I am going wow and gonna Serve God! Here I am send ME!!!) Yay. Not anymore.we were hard and frozen and only felt safe "spiritually" around other Way Believers who had the same way of talking walking living. He took me to Wall St and I could care less about the big city,we sat and stared at the Statue of Liberty, scripture running in our minds in circles of America and Founders of our Country. The song "We are songs of God with Power" and the teaching tape of Dr. Weirwille he sent the Wows in 79 on Christmas to listen to every Sunday Night over and over again. We were both dissapointed in ourselves for breaking our vows, and the whole having done STAND! Rang in our head like a freaking nightmere for whom the bell tolls! When morning came we were back on track, he was headed to a Way Home in Brooklyn and I was to spend my last 3 months in a Way Home on Long Island,before my Basic training at Fort Jackson South Carolina. This time we would make it. Not us as a couple but our "service" to The Way International It was that quick and that easy back into "fellowship" I saw him one more time after that and I saw my traveling friend one more time and never again.
  22. Back to my story now....turned out the people next door were not Wows are anything just some laid back believers...whom we never talked to until Easter. My traveling friend and I got some waitressing jobs at Howard Johnsons within walking distance of the Apt. Went to the beach at Rehobeth and thought about what to do, and how we even questioned if God did exist? My sister was most generous and kind to us and we were thankful for all she did to help. But... it was time to get careers and move on with life. at the Mall there was an Army/Navy recruitement center. We talked to a few service people and becme intrested. Took the test and joined got sworn in at Baltimore and were on the "buddy system"going to Europe after basic training (together) Thing is we were on the Delayed Entrey Program and had a 6 month wait! That was a long wait and a lot of time for wiggle room to go back into The Way.
