i'm really intrigued by that fact that i may know some of you and yet not know that i know you.
i just want to know how many people from canada are here.
if you don't mind and don't care about posting your province (cause i'm too timid to) we could all get an idea of just how many canucks are really out there.
I live in Calgary Alberta, and my name is Sheldon. I used to be in the Grandview and Central congregations. Nice to meet you!

last week i received a home visit from a couple of elders because they were concerned about my spirituality.
and lack of progress.
i said so you can guarantee the end will be here in 5 years.
:My mother always said she was happy for all those wayward youths that left and then came back but sad that one day a group that leaves will not have the time to return to the organization before the end comes.
That is some messed ass logic if I ever heard it. What sort of a loving creator would destroy his creation based on a time-line? How is it fair that group A gets to leave and have as much fun as they can then come back and get saved, while group B leaves at a later time and because Jewhorevah decides its time for the end they all get lightning bolted? Scary that these people walk among us.

i mean the people, not the religion.
in fact it moved me to make concession to a stalking jw, allowing them to be reinstated to the board this week.
i know they hate me nonetheless - but i still love them.
Naa.. that's like asking me if I love the Mormons or Scientologists. This might sound harsh but other than caring for ex dubs, non-believing family members, kids trapped in and dubs with mental illness.. if they all dropped dead tomorrow I wouldn't shed a tear.
What's to love?

you find yourself with a couple of hours to yourself - what do you to relax and make yourself feel good without imbibing substances?
what does your partner like to do?.
I love working out, jogging, playing hockey, reading, watching movies, cooking.. in that order.

just a fluffy question ~~~.
were you a freak?
jock?
I goofed off all throughout high school. Drinking beers, smoking dope and macking up babes since there was no point pursuing an education with Armageddon right around the corner. Because I wanted to live through Armageddon. MACKING UP WORLDLIES, POUNDING BEERS AND SMOKING REEFER. If that isnt the most convoluted, pitifully stupid reasoning ever, I don't know what is.
Now I'm paying for it because I'm thirty years old and still upgrading high school courses so I can go to collage.
