From the beginning to the end, your story was....Amazing. At times I laughed, at other times I was on the edge of my chair. Seriously, you need to publish this material, or at least make a personal book for future generations to read. I loved it! Thank you for sharing so much of your life with us. It was very enjoyable.

P.S. I really hope you post those pictures. I would love to put faces with all of the names.
i've been reading more lately than i ever have, now that i'm on the chopping block to be df.
(actually for the last 2 months, i've been reading away like mad.
i recommend it as a great way to get perspective on life and jws).
Voltaire:
Very insightful comparison. I agree wholeheartedly.

part 15: the letter to the watch tower society .

can you remmember any of the things you got up to or happened to you when you were a child growing up in the "truth"?.
i remmeber once in a meeting throwing up all over an elderly sister.. also i remmeber the time when we were playing out side and there was this kid most of us didn't like, and a wall that had a very rought surface to it.boy and wall meet , blood goes every ware, parents run outside and panic.. the rest of us laught.. how about the rules you had to follow?.
me and my brother were banned from drawing while the meeting was on.. that probably because we used to draw over all the walls.. also i remmember my dad smaking us before we went to the meeting , just incase we did something wrong.. yes it was different being a watchtower kid.
I don't want to recall the bad things that I dealt with as a JW kid. However, I do remember something really funny that happened. At a Monday night bookstudy, my friends little brother, who was about 7 at the time went to use the restroom. The restroom door was at the back of the room, so everybody could hear what was going on in there.
After the little boy shuts and locks the door, he starts HOWLING. He was going "hoooooowwwwlllll Baby" over and over. It was histerical.
what is your fantasy for the perfect date, whether you be married, or single.... who.
kisses!.

Sky Said:
"I think that the most romantic dates are usually the least expensive ones...:
I definitely have to agree with you on that one, Sky. Or sometimes, the most impulsive, unplanned activities end up being the funnest. I think the most romantic date would be taking a walk down a beautiful country road on a warm summer night and just talking for hours. It would have to be with my soulmate (if there is such a thing) also. That would turn me on more than anything.

what is the most romantic/sexiest thing you've ever done?.
for me, one of the most daring things i've ever done was to pick up my boyfriend at the bus station wearing only my raincoat and high heels.......when we got in the car i gave him a peek at what was under the coat.
we didnt make it any farther than a nearby dimly lit parking lot without laying down the seats and steaming the windows.. ok; who's next?.
I guy that I once dated had to go on a golfing vacation with his dad in Florida. His vacation was planned for an entire, even though his dad would only be there for 4 days. I was pretty bummed that I wouldn't see him or talk to him for a week. However, when I came into work the day before he would leave, I found a plane ticket sitting on my chair for the Orlando, FL airport. It was the most thoughtful thing anybody had ever done for me.
We spent three days basking on the beach, drinking fruity drinks and making love in the sand. It was awesome.
seeing that most of those on this forum love to judge others (although the complaint is that jws do the same thing), i am willing to go through a judicial committee.. if you see fit not to forgive, please disfellowship me and shun me.
Sorry, YoYoSexy:
We wanna hear your voice. Why don't you go ahead and give one of the above posters a call?
part 5: the beginning of the end .
note: from this point forward begins not only my final journey out of the jws, but even more bizarre and twisted turns in the road.
i hope you all find this interesting, because to me it only gets more intriguing and weird for the 3 12 years following january 1992... moment of decision: i can point back to the mountain top visit with god, or maybe today i might call it a visit with my higher power, whomever she/he/it might be.
Amazing:
Your stories keep getting better and better! You're getting me hooked like a house wife on soap operas. I can't wait to read the next installment.
Keep'em coming

after much deliberation, i decided to go "out" at the end of a public talk.
it didn't go down too well, but at least i was able to give some of my reasons for leaving.. i've put some of the details on my homepage.
i'll update it more when i get the time and the strength.
Little Toe:
Well done!!! Excuse my language, but you must have balls of steel! That was very couragous on your part.
