Aw slim...

You will be missed. One must do what one must do.

When things change, we'll be here.

But as I suspect many realise I have never really fit in here.

I think this is the crux of the problem. He may have issues about making friends etc.
And the world can be a lonely place for those without enough support away from the WT Org.

Remember how the Org likes to use the phrase "where else will you go?"
After they have held you in for so long its almost like they taunt you by saying that.
I cannot speak for him since I do not know all about his family life as well as how long he spent in the WT Org but I can say that since I've been away from the BORG my family life has never been happier.
I left with my family intact but understand that many haven't been as fortunate in that aspect.

One thing I do know is that once you've peered behind the curtain (Wizard of Oz reference) and seen that its not a wizard at all calling the shots,only an old man filled with his own errors,problems and inflated ego of himself you can never truly believe in him ever again.

Same way with the GB of JW's. Once you've seen that they are merely men, claiming to speak for God but failing in so many ways and getting so many things wrong, you can never truly have the " faith "in them that you once had.

Things seen cannot be unseen, no matter how much we may wish it to be so.

Anyways in closing I wish you all the best Slim but in my heart I feel you will be back, even if its under another screen name.
It is hard for me to believe that anyone with as many post as you had (8000+) and been here since 2004 wil not at least stop by and read even if they don't post anymore.

I will leave you with one scripture that the WT always loved to use on others 2 Peter 2:22
"The saying of the true proverb has happened to them:"The dog has returned to its own vomit, and the sow that was bathed to rolling in the mire."

P.S. Even though its rare it does happen from time to time that some do return to the WT for whatever reason.
Remember Gumby that knew most of it was BS but returned for his wife and family. Each one has to carry their own load so if they can stomach it for sake of family or friends then more power to them. Maybe one day they will return here with their whole family intact.

At least you're going back in with full knowledge of TATT which is much more than we can say for most JWs.

I've enjoyed your posts and all the best.

I'd say good luck but that would only be disrespectful.

smitten by love or bewitched perchance ?

Oh no, I hope this is not true. I mean, I don't think you're going back to the wts. But I hope you are not leaving... unless that is what you wish to do, moving on, of course... but not because you don't think you fit in here; I don't think there is much chance of that as there are all sorts here.

I truly appreciate the times you have stepped in front of me, and the times you have stood up for me, SBF. You did not have to do that, but you did. I am sorry that I never said thank you earlier. If this is a 'just for fun' thread, well, then... I will just be glad you are still here!

At the very least, you can see that you and your posts are appreciated by very many members.

Peace and love to you on your path, SBF!

Slim -

If you aren't trolling, you truly feel they are the truth and the GB and all they teach are from God? I just can't see how any can go back to believing in them. I can see going back for the association and to have some sort of group, associates, etc, but to actually believe in it, especially after all you know now, how?

never a jw

Hey! I stood up for you man! ( Is it just me or is JWN going through a nice phase at the moment. ) Look, I TOTALLY get not wanting to be around here sometimes so take off and clear your head but please Slimboy, don't pay the ultimate price of your rational mind.

Yes, someone has been farting up the place around here but that's no reason to jump back in the sewer.

Oh, couldn't let this pass . . .

It's not what you can do that will make you right with Jehovah.

It is what His Son did for you 2000 years ago on Calvary.

You can't make what He did more beautiful.

NAUSEATING!
