hey all this may have been mentioned before.
i was thinking last night about when the twin towers fell and i remembered thinking how close armageddon must be did anybody else think similar....i guess it would only apply to those who were still in the borg at the time es
No I never thought that was the beginning of the big A
That was the the same month, over labor day weekend, I decided NO MORE MEETINGS. Then it happened. I did not want to go back and hear, is this the beginning? No it's not. I would have opened my big mouth and started. The fade is still working.
roberta flack sang that song in the 1970's.
today, it's the anthem for jehovah's witnesses in the "worldwide brotherhood".
this religion says they are different.
You mean here is supposed to be love?
How did I miss that??????
What about the gossip, fault, blame, and backbiting?
i used to love hearing this song at the conventions, everyone singing..
but dammit, now it's in my head, and i just realized that it sounds kinda like the imperial march from star wars.
and it sounds great when you hum it and desk-drum a beat to it..
Funny you should bring up a song.
For some reason today, the song came into my head, ....."Then they will know,... you only are........"
well i got a phone call last night from a sweet little old lady who saw my flyer at her church.
she tells me "im at my wits end, and i dont know what to do" i asked her what the problem was and she went on to explain how her neighbor is forever more having bookstudies and holding field service meetings next door.
her neighbor is a jw and is most likely an elder.
Oh Yes,
Pictures would be nice
i have seen the term 'unbaptised' a number of times now, do you mean 'never baptised' or does the org actuallly 'unbaptise' somehow?
or does the term apply do those who are df'd or da'd?
thanks, carla
I agree with LittleToe
Always, in another class, no matter what. The push is always on to baptise
years ago when h2o was the rage, some unbelievable discussions used to go on.
as a just lurking witness, i found the exchanges to be quite stimulating.
all of the old soldiers were there, the ones that busted any view that jws "could" have "the truth".
Fluff is good to joke and have a good time.
Serious is good too, ... Thats why I like, ...blondies wt review. She has that nailed every week, she is the best.
although, i have not been victim to the same level of damage from the wts as many of you on this site, i have noticed that it is very difficult to fight such a large entity with deep pockets and passionate (though misled) supporters.. .
since i am still in the very early stages of leaving/fading, i wonder:.
i have already spent the vast majority of my life sacrificially serving the interests of this org.
I don't want to fight, I just want to leave, hurt, .. but, .. no fight.
For me ,... just easier.
shouldnt you all be getting ready for meeting?
?
*fluffs*
Too Late !!!
Now its Sunday afternoon, ... Is today Sunday?
WeSaySo Corporation, ..... buzzwords
Blondie you have done it again. ..... Thank you
hi, fyi: d'f'd a month ago, and glad you're all here.
i'm just assessing the sum of the madness that happened since my parents guilt-tripped me into confessing what got me disfellowshipped.
i do very sharply recall that at the moment i decided to do so i had an overwhelming feeling of relief which at the time i thought was me hating the lying about what i'd done and wanting to come clean about that and clear my conscience as a witness, but have since thought might have been me hating the lying about how i feel about the organisation and wanting to come clean about that as a human, ie, whether i'd turned the corner as a witness or i was glad to be getting away from it.
