    Heya all! Finally got round to posting my first post! So how r we all?
    Well to tell you a bit about myself I'm 19 and I'm from Australia! Um I was a Jw - I was raised in the truth. I stopped being one about 2months ago! It was the best decision I eva made! I had been baptized for 6 years - wat seemed like a hell of a long time. Um basically I quit because the organisation screwed my family - to put it simply! My parents are now divorced - my bitch of a mother (sori) - is still a JW - she has gotten away with emotional,mental abuse, lying, backstabbing, deception, slander - you name she has done it. I now live with my dad - who is no longer a Jw. I got kicked out of home by mum bout 2 months ago for no reason at all - seriously. The organisation did &^*( all about it - now she is slandering me. Um none of my Jw friends have anything to do with me - they cut me off - part of the reason I left! Ummm so that's it in a nutshell! As i 've heard stories like mine r all 2 common - and the organization still gets away with it - i'm shocked!

    Anyway I'm now tryin 2 get my life back on track - and living it how i want 2 yey!

    Trying 2 find 2 guys I have liked for a hell of a long time - they r not Jw's soo plez wish me luck!

    Sorry for all my dribble of a post!

    Merry Christmas Everyone!

    Couso! :)

    Nothin' is more saddening that reading a message from a teenager firmly believeing he is the champ, he knows it all, he is the grand master, while his former brothers and sisters are just trash. Just as I wonder how stupid it is possible to become, new messages pop up all the time here, telling me new records are made every day.
    How sad, how sad.

    Actually, nothing is more saddening then reading the snide, ignorance filled messages of someone who has nothing to offer but vapour filled blathering. The only thing I see from you Hippie is not so very well thought out insults. Are you in the "truth" Are you not? Do you even know? Do you have some kind of morbid fascination with reading the messages of people that you obviously don't like? What possible good comes from insulting a person who has obviously gone through emotional upheaval like Couso has? Where did Couso say he/she ( I'm not sure) "knew it all" or thinks they're "the champ?" From what I've read of your postings, you have enough to worry about in your own personal life before you start throwing judgements down from up high on your throne on Mount Hippie. Nothing is sadder? Do you own a mirror? Look at it. Case closed.

    Sorry Couson I got a little sidetracked with Theoldjackass here :) Glad you're feeling better and I hope your family doesn't cause you too much of a hard time. Ignore comments like Hippie's. He's just upset that life has passed him by before he realized that everything he believes in is bullshit, you figured it out far earlier :) See you in chat! Booya!

    Hi, Couso! Nice to meet you.

    D'OH:

    Nothin' is more saddening that reading a message from a teenager firmly believeing he is the champ, he knows it all, he is the grand master, while his former brothers and sisters are just trash.
    Yes, that would be sad. However, I haven't read such a message in a long, long time. Have you?

    Just as I wonder how stupid it is possible to become, new messages pop up all the time here, telling me new records are made every day.
    I like your competitive spirit, OldTwittie. You can still beat all those youngsters. What's the secret of your sweeping success in the stupidity olympics?

    Mery Christmas Couso, welcome to the site!

    Maybe we're long lost brothers or something 'cause your family sounds a lot like mine!

    Things get better they longer you are out

    Hey Couso, so glad that you are here....I mean 'ere!

    Just remember, the Bible is true and the WT perverted it. Jesus still died, rose from the dead etc. He also said that false groups like this would deceive many. God loves you and wants to spend eternity with you. When you chase after the world and realize it leaves you empty, Jesus will still be there and ready to forgive you and receive you. God Bless :)

    G'day, Couso!

    And welcome to the Board.
    (Naebby -- I love you MORE today than yesterday! )

    I am older than you but also only "out" a short time. I have to agree with Simon that it only gets better the longer you're out.

    I'm sorry to hear about your family troubles, but maybe your mother's machinations will be a blessing in disguise to you and your dad. I sure hope so.

    Keep reading, keep thinking for yourself, and above all, Keep LIVING!
