i came across this site - http://e-watchman.com/ - it is the e-watchman, an alleged jw.

i think e-watchman is using crude covert tactics to cause doubt in the minds of jws.

eat manna - it's good for you man na

ok, so we all know that the society if against ouija boards.

but even many "worldy" spirtualist and ufo types say ouija boards are dangerous.. so, have any of you ever messed around with one?.

i did with my wife and sister in law and all it spewed out was meaningless garbage.

I used to play with one when I was in high school. It was my grandmother's. I was amazed with the stuff it did. I have to say, when we, my sister and I, talked about God or anything of the like, the little thingy (Love my terminology or what?) would fly off and hit the wall. Pretty weird.
I don't think I would ever use one again.

What's The Worst Experience You've Ever Had To Deal With In Your Life?

a friendship gone bad?

My worst experience, was when I found my infant daughter dead in her crib. She was 5 months and 18 days old. The 14th of November she should be turning 11. I will never forget her. I was in the house, and I never knew she needed me. SIDS is silent, but part of will never let me forget I was downstairs while she was dying. Part of me knows there was nothing I could do, but guilt, boy do I carry it.

i have a legitimate question.

I would like to thank you all for replying to me. You have given my a lot to think about, and I have learned much. I have visited the links sent to me, and the information is, well, I don't know exactly how to put it, but it is a lot to digest. I also have to say, I feel a bit more confident in my decision to stop the study. You all have been so good to me. Thanks for your advice.

Celia,
I never thought of them as salesmen. I just thought they were right and I was wrong. I did not agree with them on somethings, but I thought that I did not fully understand. You all at this board have been so insightful. I have learned much. I just don't know what to do with what I have learned.
Then I do fear, what if they are right, did I doom my chilren to death? But if they are the false profits, I have saved them. I am kinda stuck right now. Cannot go forward, can't go back. Stuck is the only word I have. Any advice is appreciated.

Pistoff,
I will try to keep this short, but no promise. :) My Mother became a witness when I was 15. She started taking me to the meetings when I was 14. I stopped going when I ws 18 and moved out. My father became ill, and I became a single parent. So I moved home, they watched the kids, and I worked. After my Dad passed, it was now just my mom, the kids, and myself. I started wondering about their life. Se we all started to go to the meetings with my mother. I know I can never be a witness. I know I cannot do what is required to be baptized. But I want my boys right in God's eyes. I stopped going to the meetings, and after their last study, I cancelled thier's. I guess after this, I really started to read some of the litature with a keener eye so to speak. And there was a lot of sex relations in it. Which took me for a loop. I never noticed it before. If they are God's mouth peice, does he really think about it that much? And I have one more question. I know it is not what this topic started as, but Why are they God's mouthpeice? Who chose them? Did God? Or is that just what every church says, and they have taking it farther?
(Hope I have made sense here. If not I will clarify anything that did not make sense)

Celia,
I let my boys have a study so that they could know Jehovah. I knew I would never be right in God's eyes. So if they had their own study, at least they would live. I know it sounds weird, but please don't laugh.
