I know a lot of JW who would need AA meetings. Maybe they've started up they're own group.
I know i should have attended
i found this article online and thought it quite interesting.
i always thought kh's were used for kh business only.... the weekend shooting death of harvey county sheriff's deputy kurt ford could lead to murder charges today against a newton man.. several of those who know greg moore said his life began deteriorating several years ago after he stopped attending alcoholics anonymous meetings in the jehovah's witnesses kingdom hall just up the street from his house.. "he drank a lot -- i know that," said doug foulk, who lives in the neighborhood and worked with moore at excel industries in hesston for several years in the 1990s.
"he'd been in trouble with the cops quite a bit.".

i posted recently about a jw friend on mine getting df'd.
(she was the only jw who kept in touch with me when i left 5 years ago).. now i'm just so angry about some things that have been said by my jw family.
just this last weekend my friend hit rock bottom.
I really feel for your friend, it's soo hard to deal with.
You're mum's answer is soooo typical. My mum, who no longer considers herself a dub and wants nothing to do with it say's the same thing to me when I try to talk to her about how hypocritical the whole DF'ing thing is.
Give your friend a huge hug for me and tell we're all there for her.
Give her my email adress if you want. [email protected]
I went throught the same thing got df'ed just to get away from an abusive husband, and no nothing happened to him either.
do you socialize with your neighbors?
everyone knows how we as a religious group only socialized with each other, then when inside the hall, we only associated with a select few, those who were deemed worthy of our association.
now that you are out, or in varying degrees of staying within the borg, are you allowing yourself to get out and mingle amongst those in your community?
yep i socialize with my neighbours and they're certain I'm nuts....... but then so are my friends and family.
.
sometimes i hear someone say: "hold on just one cotton pick'in minute....".
i'm wondering, is a "cotten picking minute" a "bored" minute that feels like a long time or is it a "busy" minute that seems to fly by?
cotton pickin minute........ is that anything like a nose picking minute
Sorry tired and silly.
tonight i was out having dinner with a friend/colleague i've known for five or six years.
the conversation turned to religion: first religion in politics, then his general distaste for religion, and then his lack of a religious upbringing.
there was a lull for a moment, and then i said "it was pretty much the reverse situation in my household.
I know how you feel. I feel weird too sometimes.
Mostly people are really interested and have heaps of questions, it's interesting when they find out how weird it really all is.
I have not been out for too long though and not many non dub friends

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, wine in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming...
Just looked at your profile.
I got this on a t-shirt it's my new motto in life.

sorry if this is an old topic.
is it true they can't buy girl scout cookies?
if so what is the theocratic wisdom behind that?
Cause they are demon cookies....
There was a couple of urban myth Jo Ho stories floating around when I was a teenager that boxes of cookies were possessed by demunz.
Is there anything that is not controlled by demons.....
