  wow!

  i haven't been on in three years now, i pretty much got myself caught up to date and times change as always.

  we moved down to florida last year and i ran into some jw's at a booth they have in a flea market here, kissimmee, 10 minutes from everything disney.

  Welcome. Yes Flipper is still on here. I really enjoy his posts.

  The JW's don't understand what they believe. The "light keeps getting brighter" so fast they can't keep up. lol

  Even our still in family members (old timers) admit they don't understand everything. How can you? It makes NO sense but they just keep on like a bunch of robots. Sending them to the website is the only way they can answer questions. Let someone else do it.

  So frustrating!

  Anyway...glad to have you back. So many are waking up recently!

  At 32:32 he states that Jah wants you to be found and we do too. Ok? Then why if my spouse and I are not DF'd or DA'd are we being shunned and avoided. I guess they just want us back so badly.

  It is sad that they have to use fear to try and retrieve the inactive ones. I have said it before and I will say it again, I would rather take a permanent dirt nap then spend eternity with these people. Sad but true!

  well, my sister-in-law and her husband, special pioneers for only a couple of years, just got their letter.. her comment was along the lines of, "they're having to do this because they forgave all those kingdom hall loans a few years ago and the brothers aren't donating anymore.".

  when my wife told me, i laughed so hard i farted.

  ;).

  Howie.

  Way to go! You have so much to be proud of...you did it! Cute kids! Congrats on the RN accomplishment. That was a lot of hard work!

  It hurts to loose family and friends. NO ONE should have to do that. It's just not normal. It just confirms that it's just not right.

  Be glad you got out when your kids were little.

  Rock on!

  Finding homes for the former 'bethelites' and 'special pioneers'

  since the liberal government has been elected in canada, it seems that people are looking to the future with a little more optimism and hope.

  it is only human nature that with change, we would think that the change would be for the better.

  the courts have ruled, in canada, that it is unconstitutional to deny the homeless the right to sleep in parks.

  Some of these ex Bethelites and Pioneers have been nothing but judgmental and self righteous towards the ones who have chosen to get an education and find a good paying job. How many of these on the receiving end of criticism are going to want to be generous towards those who have made insulting remarks? These ones surely like to criticize but still love the "perks (money)" that the education and jobs provide.
