30Sitting on the Fence....to believe or not to believe, that is my dilemma.
by tootie ini was raised by a "strong" jw single mother.
she was very very strict but i loved her then and always will.
after the death of my mother i waivered back and forth with my spirituality only because this was my first chance of "freedom" and being in the world to do things that i never really got to do.

JW facebook page growing fast, and already outing troublemakers......
by oompa ininteresting place to lurk and in just a few days there are 180 members....i quickly noticed there are very many posts raising questions elders hate to be asked...like why is there a no face hair rule except for mustache?.....and many others...like wedding rings are pagan...but due to nobody feeling that way now...why is that rule not applied to everything else like it...and on and on from many who have posted...... and they ususally want to know if there are biblical reasons for the rule or teaching!!!
!......this thing will not last long........oompa.
oh and if you join...the guys running it send pms to you listing the "trouble makers" found on the site....not sure if they can be kicked out without violating the rules like cussing and porn posting.......i just wonder how many tough questions they will let be discussed..... .

Rachmaninoff's Second Piano Concerto. He wrote that after suffering from severe depression for 3 years and writing little or nothing. This work had great success, paving the way for his great composing career. Careful listening to the second movement reveals the melody the pop star Nilsson would later use in his hit "All by Myself".

Sorry to be cynical - but is there a chance they might seek custody of the child somehow? Does the Watchtower somehow coach grandparents who are "in" to seek openings for legal challenges to the parents? I don't mean to judge your parents harshly but could this happen?

Feeling like chopped liver.
by bebu inmy son's best friend's parents attend a really whacky religious group, similar in some respects to the jws.
simply replace armageddon with hell, and there ya go!
i have just shrugged at it; they've been nice enough to me, very friendly.. this evening, their son asked me if he might be able to spend the night and go with my son to the youth group at our church in the morning.

Hello everyone, I've lurked here since the beginning, and this is my first post. Bebu, this group may be the "2x2's" or "Cooneyites" which began somewhere in England in the early 1900's. The women don't cut their hair (most wear it in a "bun"), no TV, all other churches are false. They call themselves "The Truth". (Sound familiar?)
If you google "2x2" or "The Truth" you'll find websites about this group They also go to "Conventions" where large numbers of them gather for talks by their "workers".
