this last tuesday was one of the most stressful and sad days of our life when we had our lab morgan put to sleep.
she was so sick and out of it we just had to do it.
when i called the spca on monday to make a appointment to have her put to sleep i felt like i betrayed her.
I am so sorry, I cried reading your post. Losing an animal is loosing a family member. They are part of your family, they are your family. Morgan will live on in your heart forever.
WT does not have a clue about life or love. They are a heartless cult.
Our hearts go out to you and your family!
Rest in peace sweet Morgan.

17 - "a true christian must make sure that his secular employment has nothing to do with babylon the great.
for example, he would not be an employee of a church.
So a JW can not make money to feed his family if his work is inside a church BUT WT can sell a Kingdom Hall to a church? Hypocrisy much?
WT...the "do as I say, not as I do" organization (I mean cult).
so my brother who never got baptized went to the convention today (went to make mom and dad happy since they are devastated that i am out) and he got very upset during the baptism talk and walked out because 3 of the candidates were under the age of 12 years of age.
he said they have no clue what they are committing themselves to and will face what you faced (referring to me).
i really wish the usa government would start cracking down on this cult..
Sounds like a lot of people are walking out. Glad to see that your Brother see's through this cult.
have you see the latest fashion for jesus in the wt?.
he's sporting a cape, just like superman!maybe caleb can get a t-shirt with a j logo instead of an s.. .
Cape! Wow...this get's weirder everyday! lol
get ready for the big time!
my wife has already been to several special training sessions this year in preparation for the big event.
several saturday sessions at the assembly hall in warsaw.
Yes, we are located in a international city of choice. They had brothers and sisters lined up as tour guides, they had entertainment nights set aside, JW's located at the local attractions to make the delegates feel special. People were making trinkets for the delegates. It was a huge deal! Back in 2014, during the International assembly, they had a whole band and dancing at the local assembly hall. It was set up in the parking lot. There are Youtube videos posted.
Back in the day, my spouse and I took a lot of heat for playing a "worldly song" at our wedding. Our wedding was not in the KH. The scripture in 1 Corinthians 14: 40 was harped on. "But let all things take place decently and by arrangement." I am all for having a good time and I think it's a great idea to let the Brothers and sisters "let their hair down" but what happened? What changed? What was once frowned upon is now okay. It just goes to show you, if the 8 goons in NY sanction it, it's now okay to do.
Now...if I let a family member die because of the lack of a blood transfusion and the 8 goons decide to change that disgusting doctrine, how do I deal with that one? I guess then, "I could look forward to the resurrection." They have a damn answer for everything.
You just can't make this stuff up!!!
Everybody has to do what is right for THEM. My self personally, if someone does not want me in their life, so be it. I'm out! Shunning is a bullying tactic promoted by the hateful 8. I'm not easily bullied. If someone does not respond to my communication to them, I take it as they don't want to hear from me. Just my 2 cents.
it could be argued that exjws have issues in life simply because they were jehovah’s witnesses at a point in their lives.
.
do you think you or we are fairly normal considering we were jehovah’s witnesses or do you think we have a lot of baggage because we are a bit messed up ( even if we don’t even know it)?.
I don't think I have a negative outlook but I am a bit less trusting. I always had the nagging feeling, throughout my life, that something just wasn't right with WT and it's followers. Now, when I get that nagging feeling, I look into why I feel the way I do.
from my cong .
something uneblievable just happened.. i am pomo for a while not too long though.
while we were away (i and my best friend for the weekend), i received several texts from my 2 friends, from my ex-cong ,who are pimi(but starting to have doubts) who have been asking me questions about the jdubs.the texts seemed quite urgent n serious, so got the lowdown .at the weekend meeting , 3 families walked out!.
"id rather die alone then fake it thru the crazy cult."
ME TOO Nikki!!! I love the below quote. I think about this quote often.
