  I'm gettin me a couple more wives!

  by gumby in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i figure since jehovah had no problem with the faithful men of old having more than one wife, he wouldn't mind if i got me a couple more and won't kick my arse at armageddon.

  polygamy was practised without criticism in the old testament.

  in fact, it was regulated by law.

  good question: the answer is NO....I couldn't figure out why God would have ever allowed it pre-Christ era....

  I was raised as a JW...and never thought it made ANY sense why he would ever allow it....

  if she doesn't get "counseled" I would be greatly shocked!!!!!

  I got "counseled" in 92 for wearing a skirt while working the circuit assembly booth because my skirt was too short!!!!! (2 inches above my knee)

  I am laughing cause it sure looked good on me........My then husband never told me my stuff was too short!!!!!! (guess he liked it too)

  WHAT DO YOU SEE IN THE MIRROR?

  by Terry in

  2. friends

  i see everything falling apart.

  i have to suck it in; strike the right pose and choose the best angle to keep from grossing myself out.. what do you see?.

  i'm 58 years old; what do i expect to see?.

  ok...first of all, Terry...we have pm'd and I don't see you at all how you see yourself!!! Stop putting yourself down!!! You are a wonderful person with many fine abilities!!!!!!!! And your avatar doesn't support your description of yourself at all!

  Now then:

  I am a 47 year old woman.....when I look in the mirror I see a small, 5 ft tall petite woman....a lot of times not as old as she really is.

  Could be because of my petite size (2) and small frame and the fact that many think I am my 23 year old's sister!!!

  But somedays I feel old........I have been thru a lot of emotional turmoil in my life........lost parents early in life....a 20 year marriage to a cheating man.........feelings of emptiness due to living a life raised as a JW and only a year or so ago realizing it was not the truth(tm).

  but still...I found a man who is a 10!!! (not joking here) and younger then me!!! and he really loves me...NOdenial is his name!

  I have long blonde hair (highlighted, but have very few grey hairs...of course you wouldn't know cause I have highlighted hair) and blue eyes with a slight green ring around the blue (very unusual color)....eyes that are very soulful, full of expression.

  but each day I look in the mirror can be different depending on my emotions......... sometimes I see a woman who aches because of her past and crys to have parents....and unconditional love from everybody.....(remember I lost my parents young in life, my Mom died when I was 14 and my Dad at the age of 28..I have felt like an orphan ever sense...no home to ever go to) and now slowly loosing each of my Jw siblings...because I am am taking the stand for the real truth(tm).

  Leaving the Watchtower -- Prolonged Adolescence?

  by logansrun in

  greetings folks,.

  i'm in a bit of a fritz so bear with my free style.... sometimes i feel that, for the last two years since leaving the organization, i've been in a period of prolonged adolescence, filled with the confusion, second-guessing, mistakes and insights that go along with it.

  i'm now 28 years old and feel like i'm in my early twenties sometimes.

  Bradley, I totally understand where you are coming from....but at least you are in your late 20's and not late 40's like me and relearning life for myself.

  That's why I wrote a thread about "What is your purpose in Life?"....a while back.

  James Thomas wrote an amazing comment on your thread and the one I just told you about.

  Being raised a JW we had an "instant purpose" in life....What could be more important than saving lives???

  However, living for the now and enjoying life carries less anxieties. The goal is learning how to do this, so we don't reflect on the past or future so much that we can't enjoy the "now".

  I just purchased : "The Power of Now" by Eckhart Tolle. I am halfway thru it and it is an amazing read, and helps to focus on how to be happy now, no matter what we have been through in the past.

  So when Jim Penton wrote the pro-JW book and was allowed research into the WT archives....is that when he found out about their scandals and hidden agendas???
