Farkel, thanks! I don't think anyone's explained the entire episode as JW quite as wonderfully as you did. Especially that damned Babble' book. Gawd, I hated that shit...anyhow you gave me a chuckle early this morning.

Born in to it.
Baptized at 12.
Df'd at 25. That was this past April.
Life is much more simple now.

Dunked in 91, coincidentally the same year they got in bed with the UN.

Stopped going to meetings altogether a year later. Couldn't stomach the hipocrisy and refused to shut down common sense and independence.

5 years old (1973) ~ Mom starts studying and I first step into a Kingdom Hall. Then mom gets baptised in 1974. (Gee.....I wonder why? Could it be because 1975 was right around the corner?)

15 thru 19 years old ~ Drifted in and out during the teen years. Came back at 19 years of age.

20 years old (1988) ~ Baptised! I was told to receive the "mark" so I wouldn't die at Armegeddon.

35 years old (TODAY "2002") ~ Trying to do the permenant "submerge" and fade away.
