2000 Honda Civic w/ 36,000 miles
so far, 3 years of problem-free enjoyment. great cars!
believe it or not i've purchased two cars (oldsmobile) through the borg connection - the circuit leasing group.
admittedly both cars were pretty reliable and pretty maintenance free.
the first car i brought from them i had to pick it up at bethel, a brother was driving it up from texas.

I'm looking for Karl & Carol Moore who were in the Stamford Hill Congregation in N. London.
Also : Ian Vassel from the same congregation.
apostate khan simply wanted to walk away from the jw religion.
however, elder kirk and his fellow elders wanted to see apostate khan suffer.. they pursued him until apostate khan was forced to take action and fight for his beliefs.. the saga continues... .

Biggsy - this is AWESOME!!!!
PS.
I sent you an email with some news links.
i'm a music junkie, i like pretty much all types of music.
but in particular i would have to say jazz is my favorite, but not the watered down kenny g style of jazz.
i prefer the straight ahead, hard bop type of jazz.. lately i've been really getting into psychedelia rock.
some recent acquisitions include:

the jw's always teach that our prayers should not be repetitive.. however, for those that are still "active" (and for those who still remember), i present to you typical words or phrases that make up a jw prayer.. feel free to add to the list!.
-"dear heavenly father, jehovah" or "jehovah god".
-"bowed heads and humble hearts".
Lisa - yeah, I remember when they said spirit isn't sold in portions anymore, now you gotta buy the whole case.

ooo oooo I got one...
how about "the Rambler" found in every congregation...his prayers are extraordinarily verbous and usually end up as meaningless drivel, it goes a little somethin' like this:
"...dear heavenly Father Jehooooovah...we humble our hearts dear father and mercifully come before your glorious heavenly fatherly thone of wondrously undeserved kindness and graciousness and bow our imperfect heads in submission to your supreme sovereignty of all the universe dear father Jehooooovah....and we say:
thank you, ....through the name of your only begotten son and our mighty redeemer and king...the sinless lamb of the world..the word..the Logos..aka Immanuel, your son Jeeesus name, AMEN!
im not asking from someone elses standard but instead from your own.
obviously jws would view most of us here as the worst of the worst but how do you feel about yourself now that you have left the watchtower?
what changes have you noticed about yourself?
All of you are so lucky. Very soon after leaving the JW's I became addicted to heroin and other strong drugs...this habitual drug use has led me right into direct contact with demons. They (the demins) then introduced me to dollar bars, gentlemen's clubs, and strip joints. This then led me into addiction to masturbation and pornography. I'm a lot happier now.
