Seth R.

Thanks! [Actually my leadership suggested it 12 years ago when I was asked not to come back to twig, I'm a really bad procrastinator, LOL!] Seth

Right I had my conscience removed when I became Atheist... WTF? LOL! My conscience and moral center are firmly intact and even more so now that I don't have confusing lies telling me why I should act so. Morality is an evolutionary feature of all primates, we don't need a god or religion to tell us how to act we are hardwired by evolution for it. There is much confusion over what an Atheist is, I just don't believe there is an all powerful single guiding intelligence that runs the universe. I do believe something powers this universe I just don't think it's all powerful or intelligent, it could be explained by quantum theory or string theory. Some people think Atheists are against religion, not really, but if you push me I might push back. It's religion that is against Atheism, because religion aims at population control, and the powers that be don't care what brand you use, just so long as you consume their product and think how they want you to think, basically they want cattle, fat dumb and happy grazers. Ask no questions, and they will tell you no lies. Is it so much to ask people to seriously look at what they believe and investigate the facts of the origins of their religion? I mean the real origins not what the bible says about itself, (it's so stupid people really think this tiny little book is god's will.) of course the book's author is going to tell you how great the book is, hello! Seth

I've been wanting to post this for a while now, but I was busy and I was still adjusting to it. It's been about a year since I dumped the dogma, I feel cleaner and more free then I ever have, my friends even like me better! I'm also now a humanist, a realist, and a better adjusted guy then I used to be. I'd like to say more about it but I need to get to bed I have my therapist in the morning. Seth P.S. google zeitgeist movie, watch it, it will blow your mind.

First according to other sources the River Dolphin is not quite dead yet. The official report was based on only one survey, you can't make an ultimate statement on one survey, it's statistically and scientifically shallow. Second we have more to be concerned with over the next 45 years then CO2 and ozone depletion, and that is population. Food water and land are going to be even more valuable then they are today. The simple thing we can do is use carbon neutral fuels, buy locally grown food support small local vender's, use pedal-power to get back and forth to work and school, and when visiting friends. The population problem is only going to get worse when the HIV vaccine is made widely available, and once the new cancer treatments come out. I think however there maybe a disaster looming with the out of control consumption going on in this country, we saw a glimpse of it with the pet food recall, the corporate greed in this country is going to kill more consumers if we keep allowing China's inferior food across our borders onto our tables. Seth

John Thanks for the hard research and work at making public what I would say many TWI followers would have a hard time even thinking about looking for. Like VPW's death cert, talk about a cold shower! Seth

I believe if I flip this light switch the lights will go on, big Efing deal. What would impress me is if the bill wasn't paid for 6 mos and the lights still came on. Idiots. S

What you describe is a partial definition of a Sociopath. here's some interesting links: http://www.hss.caltech.edu/~mcafee/Bin/sb.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antisocial_personality_disorder Seth

I don't believe any of it anymore. Every day I'm reminded of something from it and have to grab hold of reality. It's really annoying. Maybe the only valuable thing I still hold onto that Vic taught was "either you believe it all or chuck the whole thing" good advise I chucked the whole thing. Seth

Ouch, He was a very talented man who IMHO got sucked into TWI. He could have been a big star. Was he sick? Seems to me he wasn't that old. Seth

If anyone here was in leadership from California in the late '80's specifically '87 to '89 please comment on the secret leadership meetings held in Eureka California at the Eureka branch coordinators house His name was Tom. There were 5 or six men involved all were Corps and at least Branch or Area coordinators. At one time I think the Limb leader of the time came up to visit. It came to light to me many years later as to what these men were talking about, someone involved at the limb level at the time told me these men were meeting to decide "what to do about LCM" looking back it did feel sinister. I lived in this Branch home for a brief period, and saw many strange things. After all these years I would like to hear what was really going on. Did they discuss offing the LCM? Seth

I think when I first read John's articles it felt a lot like when I had a 105 degree fever as a kid and my mom had to put me in a tub of ice water. I had a very bad reaction to the cold water but I needed it to prevent brain damage, maybe this is what some people feel when they read Dr. Juedes. Seth

Sorry it took me 3 years to reply to this message, I was in the middle of a bad depression. Yeah let's goto Gino's and speak in tongues they'll point at the sign "speak american" LOL. Seth

Wasn't Todd in residence in '91? Red Hair? Was a teacher? If so he was my Advanced Class twig leader for the '91 AC at HQ. Seth

Does this mark the return of the cunning linguist? Seth

10. You think, divine perfection. 9. You use over 50 figures of speech everyday and have a goal to use over 100 by next ministry year. 8. You get audio tapes or videos every week from some farm house in Ohio that claims to teach the present truth of the prevailing word, and you actually pay good money for them. 7. Your greatest claim to fame is 1) I have a WOW vet name tag. 2) I have a Way Corps name tag 3) I have a Way Staff name tag. 6. You wish you could read Aramaic, so you are teaching yourself. 5. You wish you could read Greek, so you are teaching yourself. 4. You wish you could read Hebrew, flesruoy gnihcaet era uoy os. 3. You named your dog Tick. 2. You own about $500 in biblical research books, and enjoy using them to "dig the word". 1. You tithe faithfully, but feel guilty you don't give 15 or 20% like those evil Mormons.

What are they doing "Spacials" every year or two now? What's so "special" about that? Maybe it's the few hundred bucks they get from the students for the weekend. Seth

Yes, I'm now an Atheist. Life is more fun now. Seth

Who is this Ductape and why is he demanding to take his silly little poll? Seth

Christ Getting In Shape For Second Coming April 4, 2007 | Issue 43•14 HEAVEN—Emerging from a grueling 90 minutes of cardiovascular exercise and light lifting for tone, Son of God Jesus Christ said Monday that He is "definitely on track" to achieve peak fitness condition for the Second Coming. In The Ten Commandments, I Performed All My Own Miracles By Charlton Heston April 4, 2007 | Issue 43•14 Whenever people talk about The Ten Commandments, a film I made 50 years ago with a fellow named Cecil B. DeMille, they go on and on about the impressive "special effects." So let me take this opportunity to set the record straight: I performed all my own miracles in that picture, so if you're going to praise someone, it should be me.

Have fun, you'll be back. LOL! Seth

Happy Birthday! Seth

Thanks! Seth

I love the whole remodel job, and the added articles on the front page are awesome, I love being able to just click play on the current GS Radio clip and listen to it. All around easier on the eyes, quicker to see what's new, and it looks like I can get anywhere on the site from the front page. Great job! Loved the interview with John Juedes. One question though, where are the men's rooms? Oh, and this isn't a non-smoking joint is it? Seth

I wonder if I applied to UT and said I was in TWI if I'd get a free ride? Just a thought... ;) Seth
