I saw these two JW ladies slowly start putting literature on their car no cart in sight. I'm wondering if they are going rouge not having permission for a cart and want to be lazy anyway. LOL!

I'm getting baptized
by BlackWolf ini know i've started similar topics before but this time i'm serious.
my parents have been constantly pressuring me and after yesterday's watchtower study they asked me if i was going to be baptized this summer... and i said yes.
i probably should have thought about it more before making a final decision, but they're pretty much forcing me to do it anyway.

I think you're old enough to know your parents only have conditional love for you now anyway. The cult will always come first for them. You will ALWAYS be second. Just like I was to my parents. They were horrible to me the entire time I lived with them growing up, I got baptized and now I'm out of that cult and they shun me. It's stupid drama to deal with, but you get used to it and move on. The way your family sounds now I think you'll be better off without them later on. Only a short time now till you're an adult, hang in there, and then get the hell out when you turn 18. Trust me, the freedom you will have will be totally worth it even if your family shuns you. -

Evolution: The Deal Breaker
by Hadriel infirst off i do believe there are some evidences of evolution or i should probably say adaptation.
i do believe this exists in various forms.. however the deal breaker for me with evolution is the chick or egg problem.
there are tons of theories that get passed around as proof of evolution however these are usually examples much further down the evolutionary chain.. what i mean is let's start at the beginning!

My dad didn't want me to watch David Copperfield because he said the demons gave him the powers to do his tricks. HAHA! -

Just wanted to say after leaving the JW's my life was very difficult. Lost my business, (had only JW's working for me and they quit). Very depressed after losing my family, and yes, had to go on food stamps during that terrible time. This sort of thing happens to good people in bad situations. I'm so thankful I had that help to get my life back in order. Whenever people make light or fun of people on welfare it turns my stomach. -

It disgusts me on how cheap Bethel is. This was 20 years ago, but when I was there as a temporary construction worker I got sick with a bad cold. I went to a little pharmacy place they had at Bethel to get some cold medicine. I got there and they said to get 2 cold pills it would cost $.25, yes that's really cheap, but I didn't have any money on me and they refused to give it to me if I didn't pay for it. I was so distraught. Here I was a pioneer, MS, just spent hundreds of dollars to fly to NY on my own, the day before I donated $5 at one of their recreation room donation boxes to play some pool, and here they wouldn't help me when I was very ill just because I didn't have a damn quarter! UGH! -

Happiness is achievable
by asensier inupdate - for those of you who read my last topic 'disfellowshipped at 18' i am so thankful for all the support and helpful comments i received.
it's amazing to know that despite how alone i may feel, so many of you have suffered the same way that i have.
i know that i can live happily without being one of jehovah's witnesses.

That's clearly the Patronus charm in action. That man just saved himself from a Dementor! The writer is obviously a huge Harry Potter fan.
