I could go for a copy of the Revelation book Merry. I'm running low on toilet paper .

i had a collection of older publications almost second to none.
along with the 30-year publications index, i felt invincible in the research department.. then i got disfellowshipped and divorced, and my ex kept them all.
" i couldn't tell her "for research" because that would have sounded like i was going to write a book exposing jw's, which would have made things even worse.

is there anyone out there that is real good with history that could give me a timeline for the past say 3000?
years that would list all the horrific things that were happening around a certain time period?
im trying to show my wife that things are not that bad right now as the wts would like her to think.
Hey buddy, welcome to JWD. There is a book that deals specifically in detail about this, its called "The Sign of the Last Days - When?" by Carl Olaf Jonsson. This is really a terrific book man, trust me on this one. This 'last days' stuff is one of the very biggest hang ups for dubs. The book shows how there isnt any difference at all in natural disasters and crime per capita and, if anything, things have gotten much better. You can order it at Ray Franz website here:

I wish more than anything that I had kept the videos. It would be so funny to get stoned out of your brains and watch that stuff. SNG had a funny ass review of the 'Young People Ask' video, can't remember what it was called now though.

ask yourself the question "do i have the kind of personality that is attracted to a strong person or entity that speaks with authority, and is very assertive?".
most of us just want to follow the leader.
it makes us feel protected and secure.
I've never wanted anyone to think for me. Unfortunetly, my parents did.

.
are you planning to go to an apostofest in the near future?
i've met posters on 3 occasions, twice in montreal, and once in toronto.. how about you?.
I've met some of them before they were apostates.. I like them better now. hehe.

i can't help but think that my son looks like a little jw in this outfit.
maybe this halloween he can go as one!

You should get a pic of him holding a Bible story book. For laughs.

:thanks, im new to this whole jehovahs witness thing, whats your position on sexual intercourse. i now that in the bible it says homo sex is cool - i.e. David & Jonathan, but is jehovah cool with that? Does it make a difference if your the giver or the receiver? Thanks for your help - i want to uphold the jehovahs beliefs and commit to this properly. Thanks for your help.
This is quite possibly the funniest thing I have read on this board. I needed the laugh bro, hehe. Welcome to JWD.

Thanks for all the comments you guys. I was feeling really numb and blurry when I wrote this post, I kind of regretted writing it the way I had.
I want to say that I am sorry for taking pot shots at the Christians on this board in the past. All of you guys are better examples of Christians than any dubs I've ever met. I am so angry and betrayed by the Bible. It just feel like since I left the witnesses my spirtuality has been torn to shreads. I've become obsessed with looking into the Bible, evolution, disecting everything so much that I am left with nothing. My nan was a Christian. I'm going to be a pallbearer at her funeral in a Christian church, and I've never been in one before. I've felt like such a phony for so many years in the dubs and now I have to be involved in more Christian stuff. I wish I could believe in something, but now I don't believe in anything, no magic, nothing at all anymore. Im going to have to be strong for my family and nod my head when they talk about Jesus. It feels like I'm losing my heart.
Im not looking for sympathy at all you guys, Im serious. Its just this board has become something that I love and respect and spilling things on here works for me.

I'm going to be surrounded by born again Christians telling me how she is in a better place, and I feel more certain than I have in my entire life that we are alone in the universe.
