  DATA-DOG:

  I don't support Trump, but I do understand why many do. They are sick of the same old smarmy politicians, telling them what they want to hear and then never delivering. At least The Donald says what he thinks. There is a better than average chance that people know who they are dealing with.

  A lot of people are sick of the same old politicians but they won't vote for an obvious dictator type.

  LisaRose:

  When people are asked why they support him they say "he tells it like it is" or "he is good at business, so he will be good at running the country".

  Like Trump University.

  we are in need of a 2009 awake bound volume to complete the magazine project for avoidjw.

  i have been able to scan 2 issues which are october and december, but we are in need of the other 10 issues for that year.

  or, if someone has some pdfs of the awake's for that year we can bundle them together and send them over to avoidjw.. .

  The reward of being a nice guy!

  by StephaneLaliberte in

  2. experiences

  today, an old jw friend came to visit a member of my family who is still active.

  i saw them leave together to run errands.

  when they left, she didn't say hi and barely looked at me.. after taking care of my cores around the house, i noticed that the sister had forgot to turn off the head lights of her car.

  Most of them will still ignore you after your good deed.

  As for her, I would have told her that "this apostate did what you would have never done" - help her out.

  Chronic relapse - what do I do?

  by wayoutthere in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  my first post here and unfortunately it is asking for help.. i was a born in jehovah's witness and from my earliest memories, i know i hated being one.

  i hated the embarrassment of being the "outsider" at school and i hated not being allowed to have any friends.

  of course i had the obligatory friends in the kingdom hall - none of whom were my age exactly and none of whom i would have personally chosen to be friends with if i had been left to pick them myself in a natural setting.

  Hi whyoutthere and welcome to the forum.

  If you choose to have counseling look for a therapist that has experience with former cult patients and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Also, think of yourself as normal but with a brief youthful misery that you got over with.

  JW Rumspringa

  by SonoftheTrinity in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  are jehovah's witnesses on their way to practicing amish style rumspringa?

  basically pushing young people out into the world and seeing who comes back with their faith intact.

  after so many generations of discouraging education, it seems like an easy way to ensure that there are some educated born-ins.

  Interesting thought. It surprises me that an authoritarian religion like the Amish would even have such an arrangement. All other authoritarian religions, JWs included, don't want their youth to be knowledgeable of the world let alone getting muddy and soiled in it.

  Strange sounds from the mens toilet ,late 80s early 90s

  by pleaseresearch in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  so as a young boy bored and wanting to stretch my legs i would sometimes take a trip into the toilet just to get away from the main meeting room.

  did my little mind know what certain sounds were coming from behind the cubical?

  no.. but now in my 30s i'm fully aware what that sound was.

  I remember an elder telling another elder that he found his 7 year old son on top of a girl on the floor, approximately his age, in the women's restroom. Uughhh.

  Animals were created without needing Toilet Paper ... but not Man ... Why???

  by RubaDub in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  my dog and other pets do their "business" and run away and are happy.. man does not have that luxury.

  any thoughts on why animals were created with the "poop and go" capacity while man has to go through more steps?

  was this perhaps an additional issue that god added on when adam and eve sinned (such as eve having significant more birth pains)?
