The Vicki Bower case is a real scream to a lot of us. She should've taken the settlement money, but I guess she thought she had a lot more coming to her (greed will do it to you all the time!) and it backfired! What a riot!!!
Just like with any other big Corporation, If you know they're powerful, don't mess with them! Common sense.
As for the child abuse issue. Sad to say, but it's happening everywhere, in every religion, and in every other walk of life. Nothing new that it should also happen in this venue; after all, we're just humans like everybody else! That's the final realization everybody must come to!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
E-mail you all soon!

Hi There!
Thanks to all for your insightful remarks. For the time being, I and many others within will continue to live this way while the fun lasts.
Many intelligent people have come to realize that this is just another of the many existing religions. However, we happen to like and agree with many of their theories, and we have found our social environment inside and for now we won't leave. Period.
Tonight, cookout fun and music at my place! Tomorrow morning, dress up and bring info to people in our neighborhood. You know, there are some really nice articles in our literature!
Find your balance, and LIVE!!!

What JW belief/idea do you disagree with the most ???
by run dont walk inis there a particular belief/doctrine that really burns you up and makes you wonder how people could believe this, and did you as a loyal jw at one time believe in it (your most hated belief), what made you change your mind ???.
for me, i always enjoy reading the history of the watchtower (1879-1974), and how things constantly change from year to year.
the sodom and gomorrah question is hilarious .

Shunning. Hopefully soon the 'New Light' will tell them this practice is very wrong and immoral.
Also, too many meetings. Two meetings per week of 45 mins each is good enough. And why two magazines?!!! One would be plenty; and all these books and other stuff they keep publishing yearly. ENOUGH!!!

WOW! I had heard of some homosexuals in Bethel, but nothing else.
Well, nothing is impossible these days. Just like I'm a part of this large partying group inside, I guess other groups may exist too.

Hi y?all!!!
Here I am again to touch up on your comments and clarify some issues so that the case may be closed? for now.
Actually, only the JWs that want to pretend to be holier than ?thou?, or the new ones that come in full force with a lot of zeal are the ones that sort of dislike our bunch, but it?s just a few of them so they?ll just have to get over it, and they certainly will; in due time everyone does get over the crazy expectancy of Armageddon and find some kind of balance within the organization.
As for some of us experiencing crisis of conscience and running to the elders, won?t happen because we?re not necessarily committing sins for which to be reproached; this large group (and believe me it?s large! Plus there are already elders among us) of us just enjoys dancing and doing a bit more drinking and laughing than our fellow members. We just happen to be not as solemn as some in there.
Also, it?s so many of us in the couple of congregations in the area that I just don?t foresee a problem. We have all types too, it?s an awesome mix: Ex-circuit overseers, elders, ex-elders, ministerial servants, ex-ministerial servants, pioneers, ex-pioneers, and some of course plain regular publishers; Cubans, Puerto Ricans, Jamaicans, Dominicans, Mexicans; a couple are business owners, professionals, regular employees, darn there are even a couple of public Government officials in our group; rich, well-to-do, comfortable, and poor ones too; ALL with one thing in common: ?Let?s shake out booty, have a few drinks and laughs ?til whatever comes?.
A typical day: Yesterday, most of us were too tired and some physically hurting from the dancing and partying we did on Saturday evening to go out on service Sunday morning; oh well, maybe next Sunday some of us will go. Then again, maybe not because some of us are going sailing to some island close by, and some are said to be going to a club where a band we like will be playing next Saturday; so, yeah, maybe next Sunday people will just have to miss having us knock on their door. In the meantime, we dressed nicely and attended our afternoon meeting, socialized mostly among ourselves, but always friendly towards the new ones and the zealous-more solemn ones. Gave our comments properly at the Watchtower study, and after the meeting we all knew where the gathering was. Did I tell you we have some mean cooks among us?! So the feast was at someone?s place; the children did their running around, some watched movies, everyone pigged out then we did some tequila shots, a few beers, nice music, lots of laughs and some up-to-date everyday stories, and by 8:30 we all headed home because there?s work to be done come Monday.
Now in a month or so there?s this cruise that many of us are taking, and it happens to fall on the same weekend as our Circuit Assembly. Oh well, we?ll just have to attend (maybe) another assembly some place else. That?s just the way we operate.
The Almighty God made this life to be enjoyed and we?re enjoying it as best we can! And if in the end he doesn?t approve our ways, well, we wholeheartedly believe the Watchtower?s theory of what happens when we die? I guess we?ll just have to do some catching up in our sleep then. HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I?ll keep posting our group?s perspective while inside from time to time.

To Live 1,000 Years in JW Paradise
by Amazing inwould you really want to live in jw paradise?
armageddon has just ended ... the dust is settling ... you discover you are still alive ... and with that you see millions of dead bodies all about you (some big city like london, rome, paris) ... then you see a few others walking around ... you get up and rush to them to find out what they are doing ... they are fellow jws who survived armageddon, just like you .... .
more and more gather until there are a few hundred in your area.
