No deal is no big deal. Even if there is a deal, when Britain is a sovereign nation it can do just what it likes, that includes reneging on any so-called deal should it decide it's in it's best interests to do so.

First Brexit, is SCOTCH-EXIT next?
by The Fall Guy inmrs. may-hem seems happy to allow the no-deal scenario to go ahead if her deal isn't accepted.. if that scenario occurs, we can expect yet another push for a referendum to vote for scotland's "independence.
" independence would simply mean replacing the overlords of the westminster parliament with a new set of overlords in brussels, because the scottish national party is desperate to join the eu.
"independence" is so liberating!.

We used to sing about "The greater Jephthah" in one of the old Kingdom songs, but I never figured out who he was.
Here's the song:

Just to throw a spanner in the works. Years ago, a JW married couple in our old congo got together for swapses with an unbaptised couple who were regularly attending meetings. The married couple were disfellowshipped; the unbaptised couple were disassociated.

The Leigh Park congregation v Havant congregation annual football match died a death. Leigh Park had the Sunday afternoon meeings; Havant the evening meeting. The Leigh Parkers always intended to go on to the Havant meeting instead and so free up the Sunday afternoon, but never actually got there.

Sex before marriage
by Jules Saturn infor ex jws, pimos, pomos, faders, born again christians, agnostics, atheists, etc.
what is your opinion regarding sex before marriage, has your view been influenced since you left?
in western society, you’ll probably find yourself ridiculed to be an 18 year old virgin so i am curious to hear opinions from here.

If you're not attached, keep a pack of condoms in your pocket and have a shag whenever you, the shagger, fancy it and the shaggee is up for it too.
If you are in a relationship, don't do it with anyone else. Because if you do, your partner will know. Worse still, you'll know that she knows. Even worse, she will know that you know that she knows.
Simples!

Disfellowshipped/disassociated – How did your parents handle it?
by Richard_I into those who were disfellowshipped/disassociated – how did your still-in parents handle it?.
i don’t want to fade, so i am thinking about disassociating soon – i don’t care if i’m playing by the org’s rules, i just want out.. however, i am concerned about how my parents will react.
i don’t want them to become super depressed or whatever due to me leaving the org.. i don’t want them to be hurt by my decision to leave the org, but i feel like there is no way of avoiding this..

My parents became convinced that I left because of the ban on oral and anal sex. I wasn't even aware of the ban, having left some time before that particular edict. However, years later when the ban was lifted, my momma eagerly took me to one side to explain that "if a man wanted to treat his wife like a homosexual" then it was now OK. At this point I had no intention of discussing my private life with anyone, let alone my mother, and she then became deeply offended that I was deeply offended.
Nuts, just nuts..

Shunning Eventually Hurts the Shunner More Than You
by snugglebunny inthis is worth reading.
basically it seems to be referring to the "mean girl" syndrome where girls who were once part of an in-crowd are suddenly ostracised by their peers, the feelings of despair that overwhelm them.
however, social aggressors usually finish up with deep seated problems of their own.

After my DF'ing I decided no-one was going to put me down just because I no longer held the same religious convictions as others did. When my parents remarked how difficult the situation was, I told them that it was their rules that were causing a problem, not mine.
Eventually I did get some small degree of satisfaction when one witness told me that I needed reminding that it was they who were shunning me, not me shunning them. I just walked away, feeling much stronger.
