i went to the kingdom hall for the very last time.
i went in the door in my guns n roses t-shirt and ripped up lucky jeans, new earrings and goatee.
i went up to the po of the congregation and told him i needed to talk to him.
Good job Dustin!

the kingdom hall where i used to go has the theocratic ministry school and service meetings on tuesday.
i have finally come to grips with my need to exit the jehovah's witnesses forever.
i told my parents today that i'm leaving the jw religion behind forever.
Good for you Dustin. It's another step to recovery.
I'm glad your dad took it well and doesn't plan on shunning you.

I really don't think Xena was Brit Bashing. I haven't heard of any major crime in the UK either. I suppose we have so much of it here, there's no time for the media to report it.

this treatment, called aimspro, isn't available yet but from what i have read and seen reported it's had very encouraging results.
one guy with extreme muscle weakness was able to feel normal strength in his arms after just 20 mins.
i wonder what jw's would think of this product as it's a blood based serum.
Wow, that's great. Since it's only the liquide of the blood, hopefully the R&F will be able to participate.

why is it that a jw is considered "spiritually sick" by the elders and the members of the congregation, if he suddenly decides to stop going to meetings and doesn't see eye to eye with the organization anymore?.
i see people who belong to other faiths, and are very active and seem spiritually healthy, even though they don't believe in what jw's teach.. .
i've been told by elders, that i was "spiritually sick".
Blondie is correct. No regular JW Food, no regular mind conditioning. Therefore you become spiritually ill (free thinking) and will be prone to leave their Organization and they loose out on your financial support.

eventually, i believe that if an inactive person refuses to talk to elders, stops all meetings and service and might create any possible problem to the local congregation, that they might be loopholed into showing themselves as having "disassociating" themselves.
it would be an easy way to get rid of deadweights that can cause more harm than good in the congregation.
