Don't know about love honey, but I recently took a dubbie guy for a roll in the hay, if you know what I mean. The next best thing and all...

Then again he was "on a break" from religion. (sigh)

The way to get the jw's goat!

the way to stick it to the borg is not self defeating behaviors.

it's not smoking a cigarette, & saying "nah,nah,nah look at me".

it is not putting yourself at risk in risky sexual acting out.

Evil Christmas!!!!!!

would you believe that i just got told off my a born again christian minister whose daughter goes to school with my daughter.. he knew that i was an ex jw and that we were celebrating christmas this year and proceeded to give me the full pagan origins thing, and people getting into debt, and it having nothing to do with jesus birth!

then there's the people who let themselves go morally at christmas parties and drink and drive and.........etc.. i thought only jw's would dress someone down like that.

i politely nodded at him and smiled kindly at his preaching.. aaaah!

I once heard a clip of Drew Carey going on about how Christmas had nothing to do with Jesus. Apparently it was a bit he did for the queen when he went to England. Good grief.

My brother was committed last week

by hoodwinked in

my brother, a long time witness who has been disfellowshipped, shunned and treated like shit by the witnesses for the 10 yrs has been committed to a phsyciatric wing of our local hospital.

he has been having delusions saying he has been chosen by jehovah and will be taken up by the archangels in to heaven.

he has also been hearing voices of demons and and blames satan for being responsible for all the troubles he has had in that past 5 yrs or so.

I grew up with a mother who had / has schizophrenia. It is ESSENTIAL to maintain close contact with him so he will not get "lost in the shuffle" and end up downtown, filthy and muttering to himself until he freezes to death. trust me, this happens fast. He needs to get treatment. And I strongly recommend not "getting him on welfare" as someone else suggested. He has a disability and should get help applying for a pention. If he goes on welfare he'll be stuck living in a room someone and will fall into the homeless / streetperson lifestyle. I'm not trying to stereotype here or say people on welfare are any certain way. But people with mental illness often wind up in deplorable situations without help from family.

"Do you need to change?"

This was said to me when I showed up for service wearing pants.I replied with a simple, polite "No." I was prompty driven home, and that was the last time I ever showed up for service again. It was - 28 C!
