  i don't know about the rest of you but i seem to see newbies popping up all over the place.

  i think it would be helpful to have a new listing for newbies to introduce themselves.would there be any problems with this and would it help or hinder the board?

  as 2004 winds down and my 4th year of association at this board winds down as well, my posting stats accurately reflect a transitition that been going on for me with respect to the jw religion, a process that is quite natural and healthy.

  What Is Your Biggest Regret Because You Were a Jehovah's Witness?

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  growing up as a witness makes it nearly impossible to deal with the "world", as a child.

  constant pressure is put on witness kids to conform.

  most lead a "double life" out of necessity.

  Your favorite holiday movie(s)?

  by gaiagirl in

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  television listings and movie theatres are filled with lots of seasonal films now, and many dvds are also available for films from earlier years.

  i confess to having a difficult time selecting just one.

  among my favorites would have to be christmas vacation, with chevy chase.

  Our favorite is definitely Christmas Story, Ernest Saves Christmas is good,

  I also like the Arnold S. one, Jingle all the Way. We have seen Elf repeatedly

  and it is very good, of course I love Will Farrell. Waiting to see Polar Express

  this weekend when school break starts, I`ve heard great things about this one.

  Has anyone seen the Muppets doing the Christmas Carol one??? To funny!

  a must see.

  Imperfect men, who make their share of mistakes, but had the power

  to change anyone else`s lives ( families ) forever ! And not look back

  or ahead to see what kind of damage they caused! Do I sound a little

  bitter??!

  Peace of mind, "guilt-free" feelings, rock-n-roll, and metal music!

  Teaching my son that traditions are ok, and a wonderful part of life,

  and that his Birthday was the most important day of MY life!
