this draconian regime of strict obeyance was so much a part of my unhappy life for so long - and even though it hasn't been for the last five years, i still relish every moment of tuesday and thursday evenings and sunday mornings ... sigh ...

What was the topic at the Special Talk??????
by lydia injust wondering here as i had recieved a very cold letter (via e-mail) from a "loving dub" telling me i was a very bad person.
it just seems funny to me that i recieved it after the date of the talk ( this person knew full well i had d'ad myself 2 years ago - and had no problem until now) and was wondering what sort of "new darkness' they were spreading on the fields of the dubs .

hey lydia - this is just another loving arrangement from 'The Truth™' for people that they are trying to encourage back "You're all demons and you're all going to die" .. would entice me i'm sure ... ahem ...

Shunned, twice in one day

i giggled all the way home.

sigh ... i've only been properly shunned once so far ... tis indeed great fun and i've been looking forward to more episodes of people pretending they haven't seen me ...
i can look at it lightheartedly because i have absolutely no family in the borg at all - and people who masqueraded as friends, never really were ... hugs to all those of you who are caused real pain because of this nasty practice of shunning [>:(]

New Meeting attendance policy??
by noidea ini couldn't believe it when my daughter came home from a weekend at her cousins.
she had gone to the meeting with them on sunday and had been approached by an elder (an uncle by marriage)..he was of course joking when he said this....he had the nerve to tell her that because i was not attending the meetings (haven't been for 7 months) that they were going to have to come to my home with a shotgun and make me go.
i have heard of shotgun weddings before not shotgun meeting attendance.

hey noidea - i thought perhaps you were gonna reveal the new rule about meeting atendance - ie - you only need to attend for 15 minutes ...

Allah is Bull****
by picosito inallah is just another false god.
mohammed thought he was real cool in inventing allah as the answer to jehovah and the christians.
he thought he was providing the true god for ayrabs but was just uniting them under the label of his own false god, allah.

the one major thing i dislike about the borganisation is their demand to free-worship and free-expression, but their denial of the right for others to do the same - this kind of posting smacks of the same intolerance - glad i'm free from it all ...

TURN YOUR LETTER OF DA INTO THE LOCAL NEWSPAPER !
by new boy ininstead of turning in your letter of disassociation to the local kingdom hall you wrote and turned your letter in to the local newspaper.
why play my their rules?
besides you made a public baptism, why not make a public unbaptism?

i dunno, i think newboy has something that 'could' work - it depends on whether anything similar has been done locally and also - the key point - does the story stimulate the interest of the local paper - they look for human-interest stories and depending on your reason for da-ing, you may well have a killer of a story that they'll go for - plus some local papers are so sad they will print anything - i have seen a local book-study listed in the 'holyhead and anglesey mail' ! ! !

On earth or heaven?
by happy man ini have read here that radher many think that bibel say that heaven is the place to come to, a lot of former jw are in this position.. but i can not agree, for mee this is very inmportant , and i think a reson that jw are atraktiv to so manyis this beleive.
why have you forget all this scriptures wha talk abaout living on earth,and why have you forget that crist talk abaout that some gone to ruel over others?.
