Thanks Doojie...A great selection by John Lennon...You won't hear THAT one in Way Productions...

Good God Almighty!!!...Glad you're safe and still smilin'... ...Thank you for what you are doing....and that's from the heart.

Smarter...Welcome to the cafe...pull up a stool and have a coffee on me. ...and if you want something a little stronger, I have a flask in my coat pocket.

...manly haircut?...absolutely! Poodles are very macho...Java Jane...You're allright... :)

Yeah...my ex wife expected me to be a combination of VP Wierwille, LCM and Jesus Christ...when they fed her with all that twi bull sh *t, she licked the spoon clean... ...and there I was, trying to find my arse with both hands... Life at Emporia turned out to be like a Freddy Kruger movie for me...It simply wasn't in my nature to bark orders and make demands of my wife. Needless to say, the charade ended during our interim year when she packed her bags and left while I was at work...The ironic part was that her folks sent her to the deprogrammers and she got out before I did... I wish I knew then what I know now...I would have split lcm's lip with my knuckles.

I think I slept walked through my entire first year in residence...

They're soliciting food for their reception?...maybe a turd in the punch bowl would deliver a message?

I thought that was what the instant messaging was for... It's my impression that there is a fair amount of THAT going on already... ...but start a dating forum?...why not?

Yum...

Speaking of stopping the cleanse early... ...On day 6 of fasting, I could stand no more and went to a Mexican restaurant with some friends...I ate a combination plate and had two beers...it was fabulous!...until I got home! I just about made it to the comode (running and pulling my pants down at the same time)...I EXPLODED!...afterwards, I laid on the couch, white as a sheet and shook for several hours...it was horrible. :( but anyway...You know you are in twi if you were more concerned with the punctuation of a verse than with what the verse actually meant.

At one time, twi prided itself for it's work in translating the class into different languages...of course, that was when there were still qualified people to do the translating work...Today, God has decided that learning English is a prerequisite for learning his truth.

You guys can poke fun if you want to...but I'm really looking forward to sitting through the class, just to see what Gawd will reveal to me...Can I take notes?...or should I save my questions till the end? Is there assigned seating?...I want to sit in the front row so I can REALLY pay attention!...I hear that at one point Mr. Wormwille mentions that all the wimin in the kingdom belong to the king!...it's about time that the truth of his holy will be known again like it hasn't been known since 1975...I hear tell that some folks even start talking in a strange language...I think it's Aramaic but I'm not sure...Lo Shanta!...I was told that those words mean..."pass the drambuie"...Is that true?

Yeah...sign me up...is there any charge? I would love to learn how to have more harmony in my home and how to clear up apparent bible contradictions... It's my understanding that God Hisself told VeePee Wormwille what should be taught in this class...do you have refreshments at break time?

You know you're in twi if you the color of your nametag determines your position in the body of Christ.

Twi has always treated women like second class citizens... Their interference in marriages thwarted many relationships and destroyed the "natural balance" between the husband and wife by interjecting "assigned roles" that many did not fit into... They had a "vision" of what a woman was supposed to be and what she was supposed to do...same with the husbands...and it really sucked. Twi destroyed hundereds, if not thousands of marriages...a pox upon them all!

JavaJane...I know there are a lot more Gen-Xers around here than have posted thus far...give em a little more time to find this thread and gather their thoughts... I enjoy reading the perspectives by you "younger kids"... Personally, I can't even imagine being raised in twi from my youth...there is a lot to be said about your experiences and inquiring minds want to know...

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't Linder one of the stooges that "monitors" the GreaseSpot? Mr. Linder...if you have read the posts here and you still are involved with twi, it is YOU that are the "cop out"...You have copped out on being honest and seeking the truth...you are now part of an insideous cult whose only interest is self preservation and maintaining their paychecks...and that makes you a loser.

...You carry a bucket and squeegee in the trunk of your car ...You drive a broken down jalopy that has a green bumper sticker on the back bumper, proclaiming the "Abundant Life". ...When you hear the name "Dorothy", you automatically put your fork down. ...You have more cassette teaching tapes lying around your house than music CDs. ...You never have to worry about scheduling in your evenings...it's done for you. ...Speaking forth a message from God is only considered an "intermediate" spiritual act. ...wander around the mall, inviting strangers to your house

I got in at the age of 24 in 1975...stayed until 1987...left when the fog years were kicking in... ...and that's another reason why GreaseSpot is such an informative place...There are folks here from every era of twi and of all ages...when considered collectively, the various perspectives help to paint a complete picture...

You know that you're in twi if you think that the organization to which you belong, is the greatest threat to the devil's kingdom.

I hope the Martindale kids are doing well (which means, I hope they have left the cult).. ...not to go , but Jonny...The teaching "Freedom from fear" states that fear is believing and that all believing equals receiving...and it's delivered in the arrogant style that Martindale was so famous for...Are you sure that you would really "enjoy" hearing it again?...and if so...WHY???

I've still got about half a dozen of my original pfal books in storeage!...Looks to me like an opprotunity to recoup a few bucks! Maybe an auction on Ebay?

Poodle pilaf?...Poodle noodles?...Poodle pie?...deep fried poodle?... ...cocoa ala king?...McPoodle?

...You know you are in twi if : ...you find yourself kidnapped by people that were paid thousands of dollars by your family members ...you stand up every time "certain people" walk into the room ...you nervously twitch your lip, hoping that you won't be called upon to "manifest" ... you'd rather be singing "tempted and tried" around a campfire than passing a doobie ...finding a good parking place at the mall is considered a "miracle of God" ...you eat golden seal when you get double pneumonia ...you have people arrested for wanting to visit a gravesite ...you understand what the words "casually elegant" mean ...you "witnessed" to the police officer who arrested you for hitch hiking

I like to watch DeadWood...it reminds me of real life...
