Geez what an idiot .. is this true.. does he actually say all these ridiculous things?... what idiots prepare his speaches.. that is the most surprising thing
Whats wierd is I did not know that I was conciously listening.. it was purely an impulse.. wasn't an inspiration or anything.. just an impulse to act..
No absolutely not!! I put the fact of my being so thruthful and honest down to my Mum.. she didn't miss a trick.. u could just NOT lie in my house.. pointless
I have had some freaky experiences also..like when I got the offer for college (to do law) I was away working at sea (college vacation job) on a Ferry.. the way the shifts operated was that you worked two weeks on (ie 14 days) and one week off.. in the middle of the first week of a shift I got this notion to just walk away from my job. no reason.. no issues.. just walked off when we docked.. when I got home the offer for college was there and if I hadn't accepted it the next day I would have lost the place....
Like u wouldn't believe.. a funny story recently..My mum was on the phone to me saying that she thought that my sister had a new boyfriend and not only that she said she thought it was this fella called Derek... .. my Mum doesn't even live in the same town as my sister... anyway I knew that my sis was going out with this guy but I let on nothing cause my sister would kill me.. anyway.. my sis was on the phone to me the next day going.. I can't believe u told mammy about Derek.. and I was like.. I didn't!!!... .. she just knew!!!
I believe that too Dusty.. I used to read fortunes.. a friend got me a pack of Tarot Cards and I used to mess around with them.. I ended up burning them cause it freaked me out.. I was too accurate sometimes and was a bit afraid of them TBH...
I also have good hunches.. problem is where as it is possibly useful for other people I normally am slow to listen to my own.. I do listen eventually.. guess don't want to believe them sometimes..
I believe that the females in my family all have a bit of psychic in them particularly my mum.. shes a freak sometimes.. particularly when it comes to us.. her kids..its like she can read our mind and is directly connected to us...
Recently went out with a guy and she was just so concerned... kept ringing me texting me etc... when I told her it was finished she was sooo relieved and said that she had this horrible gut feeling that she couldn't get rid of.. I think she was definitely onto something.. wont get into it ..
Also when my brother died she was out in the cinema with my dad and in the middle of the show started crying and insisted on leaving the cinema saying damien is dead.. when she went home he had died...
Also years ago when my sis had a bad athsma attack.. she was on route to Galway or somewhere on hols and turned the car and came back.. said she had a feeling that something was wrong..
Absolutely.. my gut is never wrong... but stubbornly I tend to ignore it for as long as possible until the 'uneasy' feeling is almost unbearable... ...
My Mum I am convinced is psychic.. when I was dating my most recent guy.. she was 'unbearable' and she was never like that before... she just had such a bad feeling right from the beginning.. I just thought she was being a pain...
She was right though... absolutely spot on!!... freaky
Yeah.. the system is not very fair sometimes.. frustrating !!!... I had a client (a Romanian Gypsy) and despite the prosecution main witness basically 'saying' she did not steal the item (she couldn't have.. literally).. she was convicted and sentence.. I got her out that afternoon (Habeas Corpus) but it made me sick to my core the thought that just cause she was a certain class of person the Judge came to the conclusion.. that 'she must have been guilty of something'.. snotty old cow that Judge
Jehovah's witness is pretty wierd.. could never understand, or would never be able to understand that religion... it seems that even if a member of your own flesh and blood or a close friend does something which displeases the congregation, the congregation would feel justified in either 'shunning' you or in the case of family not including you in spiritual matters....
I cannot understand that way of thinking nor do I accept that God would accept it as a way of being.. Jesus himself walked with thieves and sinners.. there was a clear message in that and that message was inclusion.. love and forgiveness... the new testement in particular has loads of stories which illustrate this level of 'forgiveness' as being fundamental to the Christian way..
I reckon it would because the 'tone' of the Bible (in my limited knowledge) seems to reflect the tone of he times... e.g. the old testiment seems quite harsh.. but then the times were harsh and very primitive...
I think the language etc.. would be more accessible..
