  DA: Today I used my typewriter and fountain pen

  by Mandrake in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  last week my mother (i live with her) gave me some clues that she finally awoke, and well, that came to be true and we now speak openly against many many things i considered taboo to talk to her.

  so with that achieved, it was time for a delayed duty, i took my typewriter one wrote my da letter, and signed it with my favorite fountain pen, with my "trade mark" royal blue ink (everyone in the hall knew me for using that color and type of pen).

  i will hand it to the elders tomorrow, in february 14th, the "day of love".

  Yes! I know the announce will be the same either DA or DF, but part of my goal is to "gave real basis" to gossip, I'm done with the whole thing, the only thing that remains to be decided is to be present or not for the announcement (in the case I decide to be present I'll take it with a big smile :) )

The final decision to effectively write it was taken in part (I decided it long ago) because an old friend told me about the rumours of me being disfellowshipped in my first congregation (not the same as the last), I'm only being inactive, so I had to clean my name, not from gossip, I need to clean my name from "their" name, I will be officially out by tomorrow...!!!

  The 19th Wife

  by StarTrekAngel in

  2. beliefs

  i just started reading this book.

  wife and i were at the local library a few weeks ago and she pulled it out of a shelf, almost by chance it was this book about mormons.

  she did not read it much but said that it looks like a good read.

  Polygamy is outdated, new light is "overlapping marriages"... If you don't believe me ask my father... (Hate him, in a deep, calm way, I think that is the worst way of hating someone...)

  A philosophical question .... what does the word God mean to you personally ?

  by Finkelstein in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  to myself it means to seek knowledge and understanding of are selves and the world in which we live.. unfortunately history has shown whenever one tries to connect to god and of his knowledge through men who say they themselves are connected to god through spiritual wifi ie.

  gb members of the jehovah's witnesses for example, one usually ends up finding a accumulation of only man's acquired knowledge.

  over thousands of years of trying to connect to a god(s) for help and answers, mankind has eventually relinquished himself to seeking answers through scientific investigative acquired knowledge of the world in which we live in.

  I Don't believe the bible is the word of God, I truly believe that the bible is the collection of human tradition from a very narrow spectrum of human history...

  Today I was enjoying the beach with my girlfriend and two other friends and a 5.2 magnitude "earthquake" was felt... No big deal, we were near Valparaíso (Chile) my mother felt it in Santiago (about 130 km away) but didn't panic, we speak of an earthquake when things go beyond 7.0 or more...
