  this is bigger than christmas and birthdays wrap into one.

  thanks to the australian royal commission our youngest son has woke up.

  we received a e-mail from him tonight where he apologized to us for shunning us all these years, how bad he felt for doing this.

  The show centered around Romy for much of the hour. It was well done but I think there was so much more that could have been brought out. The last minute or so had brief cuts of other news items about the molestation coverups and they could have covered other cases.

  Little toe from Scotland. Around 2005 or so, I remember reading here that he met and married a poster from Texas I believe. Shortly after that he didn't post anymore.

  I totally agree. The only ones I find on social media are ones who left or ones related to family who left who are brave enough to make a post every once in a while. Spineless bastards!

  Beard update

  by Coded Logic in

  1. social
  2. physical

  so it's been over a month since i decided to grow a beard.

  the mustache and chin have come in fuller than i ever imagined - while the cheeks leave me wondering if i'll ever grow enough hair to make it not look so wildly unkept and patchy (if anyone has any advice here it'd be much appreciated).

  but in the mean time i'll give it another month and see how it goes.. .

  Nice looking beard! For the first time in my 71 years, I grew a goatee about 4 months ago and love it. It has come in thick and gray but it fits me. I just wish I could grow hair on my head that would be as thick as my beard . lol

  2003 was my last one. The last three being 2001, 2002 and 2003 were only out of guilt. I no longer feel guilty!

  Does the Watchtower have an official position on Alcoholics Anonymous?

  by JeffT in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i ask because i'm working in a 28 day residential addiction treatment center and one of my co-workers is studying with the jw's.

  he does not know i'm an xjw.

  i suspect that at some point they're going to tell him he can't go to aa meetings anymore.

  I started attending AA meetings in 1989 when I was an elder. I even held hands at the end of the meeting and prayed the Our Father prayer. That is the part the WT frowns upon....praying with "false religion". For me, AA helped me see that non JW's were and are some of the nicest people ever. It was the beginning of the end for me. Goodbye WT!
