A lot of it, but alot of it is not; so what do we do? Well Willy we never stop useing our own brain power, never let any religion say we better get on the Ark of their salvation or die.

Do you have to respond?
by JustTickledPink ini continually battle with my emotional feelings as the daughter of a devout jw and my beliefs as a reasonable educated individual.. problems arise when my mother makes some sort of contact with me via email and always has to put in some dig such as "since you have turned your back on jehovah's people" and then i get furious because if god does have people on earth i am sure the red cross volunteers would be on the list, not the jws i know.
the statements she makes always irritate me and i sometimes choose to defend my beliefs, my morality, my truth vs her truth.
i spend time writing not only factful but sometimes emotional charged testimony about what it means to be godly.. once i make my point it opens up a can of worms and i get bombarded with emails or magazines from her trying to make her point.

I have learned more from the Internet than from any other sourse, on so many subjects that I have lost count. The Jehovah's Witness's leaders hate the Internet because it is informative more than the Awake and they can't stop the RF from useing it, their magazines eather scared the hell out of me or bored me to death. The mind was ment to think with out the Borg messing with the lights inside.

Neutrality of the WT
by blindfool inone of the issues i have with the wt teachings is that it is taught that a true believer must not engage in warfare.. the problem is: evil does exist and someone must be willing to stop evil.
if not good people then who will?.
many years ago, i asked a sister this question: "if no one had stopped hitler (the best example of evil at the time) what would have happened?

Dear lost and confused, if I was him and you was the women of my dreams I would hope that you would come to the conclusion that if I will betray my wife for you then its self evident that I will betray you too if the right opportunity came around latter when the moment is right, for me. Obviously he does not care for his kids if he has any, its a well known fact what divorce does to children and their emotions and lives from then on, while their mom or dad is having a selfish fling under the guise of being too lonely. Being a man my self, I think he is having mid-life crises feeling he must prove he can still cut the mustard at your expense, I have to admit it I have done the same thing when the moment that I felt was right I ditched my ex-wife for being a bitch to me; when a willing women came along it caused way too much problems for my kids, I could kick myself in the ass for it. Remember "to thy own self be true". Shane

From the time I was a young teenager I could see that turning in time was a farce. I told them during the meetings, I also robbed from the little box in the back I need it more than they did, a guy needs money for the school stomp.
I have not been a bad boy since, I am now 50 well sometimmes I am.
