UFCFan, If you have a learning disability you will need to put in twice the effort into school. All the more reason to avoid any relationship JW or anyone else. Choose wisely and with a clear head.

What is dating as a JW like
by UFCFan infirst off i want to say that i'm a teenager which makes my situation interesting.
i don't want to give too many details in case someone i know reads this but i'm between 14 and 18, homeschooled, and i've been awake for around one or one and a half years.
i already have a plan to attend usc or wisconsin university if i'm smart enough to get in and then move to san jose and try and get a job working for a hs football team or with a soccer team, since i want to coach sports or be an agent.. now, this all sounds great in theory but there's one thing i've been thinking about that makes me doubt my plan.

Funny story about dumb JW rules
by cookiemaster insome years ago (the year when i got baptized), i was at a district convention (or whatever they call them these days) with my best friend.
he had a part in one of those acting parts at the convention (i have no idea the term jw's use for them in english).
anyway, we were both seeing through the bullshit of the borg but weren't aware at the time of this forum or other "apostate" groups, nor of the full extent of the perversity of this religion.

@ brandnew: "There was a letter on my seat, saying thank you."
You gave a "good witness" (Do they still use that phrase?).

I would have told Mr. Elder to give her the ride home but I like what you did. How did he react? -

I remember being at school and, during my lunch break, walking in to a room where a sister was conducting a study. When she saw me enter she said that she needed to cover her head. Having nothing to cover her head with she took her sweater and pulled it up over head.
I thought that was cute.

minimus:
"my question is not conspiracy based. He seems very pro Muslim, more than any other politician that I know of."
He's being, in his opinion, respectful. He doesn't judge Judaic values because of the Old Testament nor does he judge Christians because of their hellfire for everyone teaching. He's simply of the belief that all religions are nice and smell of roses except for the terrorists in question. Terrorists in any religion.

No. He sends his daughters to a Unitarian school - Unitarians are politically liberal - and he himself was involved in a church that got notoriety for it's African American stand. The minister was reported as saying "God damn America."
He's brought up on prior occasion the fact that the Bible instituted slavery so he's not the type of Christian who rationalizes those type of matters.

What if JWs Viewed Disfellowshipping and Excommunication as Radical Islamists Do?
by Oubliette ini found this statement from a recent article about isis to be quite interesting in view of the way that any jw can be accused of apostasy with little or no possible repercussions or consequences for the accuser: .
in islam, the practice of takfir, or excommunication, is theologically perilous.
if a man says to his brother, you are an infidel, the prophet said, then one of them is right.

"The WTS has said in print and in their congos' that in the nation of Israel DF'd people would be stoned to death ( or some other horrible death) but the law of the land prevents them from taking this action in our time."
I was told that in my judicial committee. Specifically, "If you were in Israel you would be stoned."

Ayn Rand - Opinions?
by cappytan infor those of you familiar with ayn rand and her ideas on morality, rationality and reason, what is your opinion of those ideas?.
i'm talking about her actual ideas, not the ideals that libertarianism has adopted and, in some cases, perverted.
do you think she's a charlatan?

cappytan, I loved The Selfish Gene. I read it soon after my disfellowshipping.
